It’s there properly.Tohta Kasamura
In music production, great emphasis is placed on VOCALOID tuning, and the breath-like expressiveness that results has earned support for the Vocalo-P, Tota Kasamura.
The depth of the piano sound—reflecting the creator’s background of playing piano since childhood and a fondness for ballads—enriches the world of the lyrics and melody.
The dynamics in the chorus create ebb and flow in the track, giving the sense of being encouraged by its powerful message.
Despite being arranged solely for voice and piano throughout, its dramatic arrangement makes this a stirring VOCALOID number.
Envy BabyKanaria
A Vocaloid producer, Kanaria, who began activities in 2020 and drew attention after the second track “KING” achieved a million sales.
The thoroughly crafted worldbuilding—felt in the medieval European-inspired lyrics and musical style—is outstanding.
The piano, which creates a mysterious atmosphere, colors the entire piece with a melody that is at times lyrical and at times tight in its phrasing.
With a piano sound that offers both depth and expansiveness shaping the overall mood, this is a short yet compelling Vocaloid number.

The VOCALOIDs just keep repeating two chords.GYARI
A song by GYARI, a Vocaloid producer who also works under the name Cocoa Cigarette P on Niconico.
As the title suggests, it’s a simple composition that progresses with only two chords for much of the piece, yet its rapidly shifting moods keep it from ever feeling monotonous.
Despite being over 20 minutes long, it has achieved Hall of Fame status, which speaks to its high level of craftsmanship.
It’s an engaging, never-boring number that showcases the piano’s expressive range across any style.
blackboxMarasy
This is a work by marasy, a Vocaloid producer who originally started out as a pianist posting “I tried playing” videos and began releasing original tracks in 2010.
The title “blackbox” represents the piano, making it clear that the piece is centered around the instrument.
The driving intro, where an evocative piano melody intertwines with guitar sounds, builds anticipation for the song from the very start.
With its tight arrangement, intricate beats, and piano phrases that fill every gap to raise the energy, this is a recommended Vocaloid track for fans of piano-driven sound and rock tunes.
paranoiaTsunamaru
A song by Tsunamaru, a Vocaloid producer known for his perfectionism and for frequently withdrawing tracks after releasing them.
As his seventh work, it became his first to reach a million plays, and from the intro—featuring a memorable piano phrase and a lively four-on-the-floor beat—you’re immediately drawn into its world.
The piano’s tone, which embellishes the wistful melody, shapes the atmosphere of the entire piece.
It’s a number that showcases how well piano and digital sound complement each other, creating a sense of poignancy within its brisk momentum.
Torinoko City40mP
The bittersweet yet warm song Torino City, in which a technical piano overlays a rock band sound, was released by 40mP in 2011.
Perhaps you’ve had moments of wondering, “Am I the only one being left behind in this world?” The gentle piano resonates as if to stay close to the hearts of people who feel that way.
The staccato in the vocals is incredibly pleasing, and its synergy with the backing band is outstanding.
The performance evokes jazz piano, and the refined composition reminds you that you are not alone in this world.
Umbrellas and RainMachigerita-P
This is a song by Aoki Lapis released in 2012.
True to its label as “depressing piano,” the piece stokes a sense of fear right from the introductory piano, to the point that people with fragile mental states might want to run away.
Both the lyrics and the piano are extremely heavy—it’s a yandere song that keeps you on edge until the very end.
