[From Classics to the Latest] A Special Feature on Vocaloid Masterpieces and Legendary Tracks!

Toward an infinitely graySorry

Toward an Endless Gray / Surii feat. Kagamine Len

A song by the singer-songwriter Surii, who has many signature tracks and has released numerous self-covers of his own works.

This is the VOCALOID version of a newly written track for the in-game unit “25-ji, Nightcord de.” from the smartphone game Project SEKAI COLORFUL STAGE! feat.

Hatsune Miku.

You can fully enjoy a melody packed with the charm of Vocaloid music, including the striking contrast between low and high pitches in the intro and chorus, as well as exquisitely chromatic lines.

With an arrangement that pairs a relaxed shuffle beat with catchy timbres, it’s a highly recommended piece that will linger in your ears.

Non-breath ObligePinocchioP

PinocchioP – Non-breath Oblige feat. Hatsune Miku / Non-breath oblige

A track by PinocchioP, a Vocaloid producer also known for his wide-ranging work as a composer, illustrator, and character designer.

The melody—sung without a single breath, something no human could perfectly replicate—delivers a shocking impact that feels like the very essence of a Vocaloid song.

It’s easy to focus on that striking element, but the track is full of other highlights as well, from its dizzyingly fast-evolving beats to its beautiful melodies.

Whether you’re new to Vocaloid or a longtime fan, you’ll find plenty to enjoy from multiple perspectives.

Magical Girl and ChocolaitPinocchioP

PinocchioP – Magical Girl and Chocoleito feat. Hatsune Miku / Magical Girl and Chocolate

A song that portrays the worries and true feelings of a magical girl, prompting reflection on human nature.

Created by the multi-talented PinocchioP, who also handles illustrations and more, it was released in 2022.

It’s a catchy track built on a four-on-the-floor rhythm, but there’s a striking contrast with the lyrical message—that contrast becomes a hook you can’t shake.

However.

when I imagine a magical girl fighting enemies while thinking about these things, I can’t help but feel like I should reflect on my own actions up to now.

Deep Sea GirlYuyuyu-P

Yuyu feat. Hatsune Miku “Deep Sea Girl” MV (with translation)

Using the image of a girl sinking into the deep sea, it sings of the pain of love and the difficulty of being honest.

It deftly portrays the anguish of wanting to open one’s heart but being unable to.

It conveys a universal wish: “Nothing begins if I stay shut inside my shell,” and “At the very least, I want to be honest with the person who draws my heart.” Will the girl be able to escape the darkness of the deep sea?

SLIPIyowa

Iyowa – SLIP [YouTube Music Weekend 10.0]

A bittersweet yet beautiful Vocaloid song whose mind-rattling sound becomes irresistibly addictive.

It’s a track by Vocaloid producer Iyowa, known for numerous masterpieces like “Kyukurarine” and “Netsu Ijō,” released in August 2025.

The song portrays fragile memories, emotions on the verge of breaking, and budding love swaying within summer scenery.

Its intricately shifting melody lines, changing like waves that ebb and flow, seize the listener’s heart and never let go.

Give it a listen when you want to sink into the feeling of never waking from a midsummer dream.

CinderellaDECO*27

DECO*27 – Cinderella feat. Hatsune Miku

DECO*27 is a Vocaloid producer who has continued to lead the scene since the 2010s, known for numerous songs themed around “love.” Among his works, the one I especially recommend is “Cinderella.” It’s included on MANNEQUIN, released in 2022.

The electro sound driven by a dynamic rhythm is addictive, and the humorous flow that showcases Hatsune Miku’s cute vocals is another highlight.

It’s an upbeat tune that I hope even those who’ve “hardly ever listened to Vocaloid songs” will try.

Merry Bad End / Mafumafu feat. Hatsune Miku

There’s a dark side to girls’ groups.

We’ve turned that reality into a straightforward, dark song.

When rumors spread, even someone who used to pass as “cute” gets left out.

It portrays the flipside of that imaginary utopia.

Some guys might even find that, by listening to this song, the illusions they held about girls are shattered.
