Vocaloid background music for work: masterful songs that boost productivity and recommended popular tracks

Sweet devilHachioji-P

Sweet Devil / Reol (Reol) Cover

It’s a track packed with Hachioji-P’s worldview.

The melody line is very vivid, and it has not only EDM-like elements but also a cool club-house vibe.

If you were just listening to the song, you wouldn’t even realize it’s sung by a Vocaloid.

Ghost RuleDECO*27

DECO*27 – Ghost Rule feat. Hatsune Miku

This is a fast-paced track by DECO*27, who has also been featured for anime theme songs.

The conversational lyrics and driving, percussive rhythm leave a strong impression.

In particular, the cascading key changes in the final chorus heighten the sense of speed even further.

Huh? Ah, I see.Chouchou-P

[Hatsune Miku] Huh? Ah, I see. [Original Song] [Subtitled]

With daring lyrics and a mature sound, this popular track captured listeners’ hearts.

It’s one of Chouchou-P’s signature songs, released in 2010.

It may be a work that shattered the previous “cute” image of Vocaloid and gave rise to greater diversity.

HibanaDECO*27

DECO*27 – Hibana feat. Hatsune Miku

This track by the popular Vocaloid producer DECO*27 features an up-tempo rock sound and a very cool section with English lyrics in the second verse.

It’s a song that literally cries out the heart’s plea to be loved and fulfilled.

It also pairs well when sung together with its counterpart, Ghost Rule!

wowaka "World's End Dancehall" feat. Hatsune Miku & Megurine Luka

This song by wowakaP, who also performs as a member of Hitorie, creates a chemical reaction between its uptempo sound and lyrics that take a pessimistic stance toward the world, resulting in an addictive track.

At karaoke, it’s a great song to tackle solo, and it’s also fun to split the parts with someone else and sing together.

ParadichlorobenzeneOwata-P

[official] Paradichlorobenzene feat. Owata-P (Kagamine Len, Kagamine Rin)

A song by Owata-P, known for their comedic tracks.

It’s paired with Kagamine Rin’s “Anti-Chlorobenzene.” The song speaks of a Vocaloid’s struggle with the question, “What do I sing for?” Because the melody is gloomy, be mindful of the mood when you sing it!

[Hatsune Miku (40mP)] Torinoko City [Original]

The piano accompaniment is wonderful.

The piece progresses through layered chords in a beautiful way, and I feel that Hatsune Miku’s vocals, while being the lead, complement and enhance that texture extremely well.

The tempo is good, and although the lyrics aren’t cheerful, the overall result has a strong sense of rhythm.
