I started playing guitar in middle school and focused on band activities during my student years. I’ve been a hobbyist Vocaloid producer for over 15 years. After entering the workforce, I gained experience in various roles, including event sound engineering and videography/photography. As a writer, I’ve contributed introduction articles for music and manga websites, and in 2022 I had the opportunity to write the bonus liner notes for IA SUPER BEST. My specialties are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

I’m Takashi Hoshino, a freelance writer currently juggling work with parenting. I’ve been playing guitar for over 20 years since I first picked it up when I started high school, and I’m still active in a band today. Ever since I began playing, I’ve been drawn to hard rock and heavy metal, and I enjoy intense music, whether Japanese or Western. At the same time, I keep in mind something I was told long ago: “If you want to play rock, you should know more than just rock!” With that in my heart, I make a point of listening to a wide range of genres every day. My experience as a writer is still growing, but I’ll keep working hard to recommend all kinds of music to as many people as possible!

The Vocaloid scene is where countless Vocaloid producers and creators are active every day.

In this article, we’ve put together a collection of cool Vocaloid tracks that are being released practically daily.

From classics to the latest releases, we’ve picked songs purely based on one thing: how cool they are—regardless of genre.

[Hot] A Major Feature on Cool Vocaloid Songs! (51–60)

Sacramentowotaku

Sacramento / wotaku feat. Hatsune Miku

Sakramento wotaku

I get chills from its majestic, oriental atmosphere.

It’s a track by the Vocaloid producer wotaku, also known for “Mafia” and “Gehenna,” released in October 2023.

It was simultaneously released in a version by SHIKI, who is active as a vocalist.

There’s something a bit frightening yet beautiful about its unique worldbuilding that you can’t take your ears or eyes off.

It builds toward the chorus, and the moment it hits, the arrangement strips down the number of sounds—an electrifying move.

The rap section is great, and the slithering bassline is irresistible too; it’s a Vocaloid song with multifaceted appeal.

"See you" – Kasane Teto & Hatsune Miku

See you, you crooked one.

“Jaana,” a track that resonates with a distinctly mechanical, Vocaloid-esque worldview, was produced in 2023 by Vocaloid producer Yokoshima.

Over a rhythmic dance beat infused with mechanical sound effects, the fluid vocal performances of Kasane Teto and Hatsune Miku are showcased.

The passionate melody pairs perfectly with lyrics that depict casting off the mindset of overthinking and inaction and charging boldly forward.

With the intertwining chorus of the two and a driving sense of speed, this is an electronica piece that truly surges.

Remote Control Jesus P

It’s a song composed by Jesus-P, a member of the music circle Wonderful☆Opportunity!.

The unique rhythm and lyrics that evoke retro video games are intriguing.

Overall, the song gives a cute impression, but there’s a rap section in the middle with tight rhymes that really hits with its contrast.

Unceasing Indigo / Hatsune Miku

Incessant Indigo Lion Shishi

This is a work by Shishi Shishi, who made a name for himself with the hit of this song.

It was released in 2019.

The music video plays a part, but listening to the track makes me feel like I’m gazing at the jumble of an urban landscape.

The jazzy piano phrases that pop in at key moments are stylish and cool, and the edgy guitar is absolutely irresistible.

Huh? Ah, right. Papiyon.

It’s a song that quickly became a hot topic for its very adult-oriented lyrics.

It was released on Nico Nico Douga in 2010.

The sound arrangement gives a cool impression, yet it also conveys a sense of beauty.

The weighty melody is impressive as well.

Vocaloid producer Hiiragi Magnetite, known for tracks featuring KAFU, has been gaining attention.

His 2021 production “Marshall Maximizer” is an upbeat tune that makes superb use of KAFU’s voice—mechanical yet somehow human.

Also note her technical delivery of lyrics that paint a unique world.
