From the sky before a summer dawn to the sky of the morning glow.
Such a scene comes to mind.
There’s also a version covered by the composer, n-buna, himself.
His gentle singing voice and the charm of the acoustic guitar are fully showcased, so if you’re interested, I highly recommend giving it a listen as well.
August, you are.Epoch
A song that paints bittersweet memories, with the delicate tones of the guitar seeping into the heart.
Created by the Vocaloid producer Epoch, also known for works like “Somnium,” and released in August 2021.
It’s a rock number packed with overflowing emotions for cherished people we can no longer meet, and for the summer days that have passed.
The resonant, emotional sound captivates both ears and heart.
Before you know it, you find yourself listening as if it were your own story.
Summer and TriangleI can't say I'm sorry
A song by the Vocaloid producer Known for “Finding Knots” and “Spring Is Blooming,” Gomennasai ga Ienakute, released in August 2024.
Its minimal four-on-the-floor beat and Kagamine Rin’s clear, transparent vocals create a pleasantly polished sound.
The lyrics carefully depict the poignancy of summer’s end.
With its simultaneous sense of coolness and loneliness, this track is perfect for when you’re in a sentimental mood.
Alice in the FreezerOrangestar
This is a song by the Vocaloid producer Orangestar, known for works such as “Asu no Yozora Shoukaihan” and who has also made a major debut.
It was released in 2016.
Despite its simple sound, the lyrics and melody evoke a profound world.
Many of Orangestar’s works are themed around summer, so if you’re interested, be sure to check out his other songs as well.
The wind blows beyond the summerrice straw bag
“A Breeze Blows Beyond Summer” is a song by Komedawara, released in September 2022.
Chisei’s lifelike vocals leave a strong impression, conveying end-of-summer nostalgia with a refreshing touch.
The brisk, guitar-driven arrangement feels pleasant, with a gentleness like a breeze caressing your cheek.
Recommended for those who want to quietly savor the changing seasons.
I think it will particularly resonate with people in their teens.
Rain of Time, The Final WarOrangestar
This is the 20th work by Orangestar, known for depicting a distinctive summer-themed worldview.
The two-step key change in the final chorus is surely the song’s biggest highlight.
Along with its thought-provoking lyrics, it really hits home.
