A perfect day for ghostsnaraku
Yūrei Biyori, the fifth work by the Vocaloid producer naraku.
It features distinctive koto and flute tones with an enka-style melody line, resulting in a quintessentially naraku, Japanese-inspired sound.
The lyrics, written in archaic phrasing reminiscent of the Ogura Hyakunin Isshu, leave a strong impression, and the aimlessly wandering ghost girl who serves as the protagonist feels somehow wistful.
Even with only five works so far, naraku has been drawing attention with outstanding sound—be sure to keep an eye out for what comes next!
Yukinikanayuta
Known by the nickname Nayutan and beloved for her soprano range, singer nayuta has won wide popularity.
As the second installment of her three-month consecutive release project, Yukinika weaves a delicate blend of a piano- and strings-featured, dreamlike ensemble with her crystal-clear voice.
Its lyrics, portraying a love that can’t quite find the courage to take the first step, are likely to tighten your chest alongside the richly layered sound.
A mystical ballad, it crafts its own world with a transparent, heartrending melody.

An irresistibly addictive mix of rock that sketches out a way of thinking about identity.
“Uzo-muzo” by Vocaloid producer shino was released in August 2023 and participated in the Top 100 ranking for VocaColle 2023 Summer.
It fuses a high-energy band sound with release-cut piano and restless synth phrases, and that uptempo arrangement really packs a punch.
It makes you want to crank the volume all the way up.
The lyrics will especially resonate with anyone who makes music—Vocaloid tracks in particular.

Set in a wintry town where white snow falls, Snow Flower unfolds as a poignant yet heartwarming story.
It was included on archive, released in 2008 by sleepy.
ab, a rock band from Hokkaido.
The track is characterized by a sound in which acoustic guitar intertwines with synth tones, evoking a fantastical winter night.
Over an aggressive band performance, Tsuyoshi Nariyama’s emotional vocals convey a sense of sorrow.
Despite bearing loneliness and solitude, the song portrays the resolve to live without losing hope for tomorrow.
Good fortune comes to the gate that worries.somei
Singer-songwriter somei, who spent her childhood surrounded by music and is drawing attention for her down-to-earth lyrics.
The song “Ureu Kado ni wa Fuku Kitaru,” chosen as the opening theme for the TV anime The Masterful Cat Is Depressed Again Today, kicks off with the chorus and a driving ensemble that instantly lifts your spirits.
The lyrics, which feel like they affirm your very existence, seem to give a powerful push toward your dreams and goals.
With a refreshing melody and vocals, it’s a breezy pop tune that gives you courage.
Melancholy Cherry Blossomsbeautiful night
Choosing the right song for a graduation ceremony—one that marks a fresh start—is never easy.
Among the songs that can truly move an audience, I recommend “Urei-zakura” by the band Atarayo.
This ballad, set against the backdrop of fluttering cherry blossoms, features lyrics that portray parting and hope, resonating deeply.
Its message and sound arrangement convey a bittersweet feeling while also offering forward-looking energy.
It’s the perfect song to color such an important day in life as graduation.
The snow is piercingly coldbeautiful night
Aratayo’s “Yuki Sayuru” is a song that seems like it could capture men’s hearts if a woman sang it at karaoke.
By the way, the band name Aratayo is said to mean “a night so beautiful you don’t want it to end,” which sounds like a fun tidbit to use as karaoke banter.
The band also appeared on THE FIRST TAKE, YouTube’s one-take performance channel, in 2021 with two songs: “October, I Forget Your Silence” and “Summer Haze.” Not everyone knows them, but music aficionados do—this kind of song choice might just grab the attention of the guys!
