My man, vocaloids are the gateway to a huge genre of music in Asia. Many of them (the creators) do become full-fledge producers and even sing their own creations (yes it’s humanly possible). These Singers are then called Utaites! I suggest you look into them (mafumafu, soraru, amatsuki, nqrse) because they are insanely talented since they do covers and write their own songs.
If you listen to more then I definitely recommend the song Rolling Girl. It was one of the first vocaloid songs I ever listened too. Though I will warn you the lyrics do talk about bullying and harassment, and the end sort of implies committing unalive.
I absolutely adore GHOST, a lot of their music is darker- And some of the songs are actually a way of them dealing/coping with things that have happened in their life. As their lyrics are a bit dark, I would love to see you more so focus on their songs. I always say there are three kinds of Vocaloid songs, the Cheery upbeat ones, The 'oh this sounds nice' but looking at the lyrics reveals something sinister, and finally The More Dark/ Unsettling songs. I love how different the songs can be. Another Vocaloid artist that's similar to GHOST is R.I.P The Medical Anomaly, Pyrite Girl, and CORROSION are my favorites by them. I also recommend some more GHOST songs, Appetite of a People Pleaser, The Distortionist, and Honey Im Home, and Two of a Kind.
Steampianist also has a lot of dark and very pog songs like secrets of wysteria, the experiment, thing, meat man, and a lot more. Entomologists by GHOST and The medical anomaly by R.I.P are my favorites by them ٩( ᐛ )و
Kikuo, Machigerita, Dasu, Momocashew, and Steampianist are also all so good. (And of course, the entirety of Kagerou Project and the Evillous Chronicles.) EDIT: I keep adding more. At this rate I'll never stop adding, goodness.

I highly recommend listening to Wowaka's song's! Wowaka is considered to be like the father of vocaloid and you can def see his influence to this day! I also recommend Giga's and Kira's songs too as they are sooooo good! Looking for the English subtitles to songs will be good too cause many happy sounding songs are actually very very dark and many songs are about different issues in today's world
@ぃゃmada [+m8] My knowledge of Vocaloid history is very little sadly and when I try to find some videos on it, they always talk about Wowaka. Sorry for missing them mate
Some Vocaloid stuff I can recommend is - Masa Works Design - The Evillious Chronicles - Dasu (tagalog) - KurageP - steampianist (english) - Kira (english) - Vocaloid choruses in general and - thisendlessforest has a LOT of popular and less common songs with english subtitles
Definitely recommend “lost one's weeping” another really good vocaloid song. There's also whole ass plot lines. I haven't been into it for a while but it's got a lot of stuff to look into.
If he’s that wowed by vocaloids, he needs to cover utaites. Actual people who also make vocaloid songs and SINGS THEM (like Mafumafu, Soraru, Nqrse, Amatsuki). They are awesome!
IT'S MY TIME TO SHINE! A little background. Ive been an avid fan of Vocaloid for many years. Starting out as a scene kid thing and growing into the passion of the meanings in each song and how each individual artist portrays and rigs their vocaloids. Wowaka is one of the MOST memorable Vocaloid artists out there. His music portrays themes of highschool distress, accidental teen motherhood and depression as a whole. The reason he is so famous is because of his wild productions. As someone once put it, Wowaka makes chaos meet harmony. I couldn't explain to you in words his music, you just have to listen. The most famous being -Rolling Girl -Unknown Mother Goose -Unhappy Refrain Unfortunately, we lost him on April 5th, 2019. He died at the age of 31 due to heart failure. Even with his loss, a lot of Vocaloid fans listen and enjoy his works today Rest peacefully Wowaka 🖤
There are so many good vocaloid songs. Ones I'd recomend for you to react to in the next video (if there is one) are; -Rolling girl - by Wowaka (Featuring Hatsune Miku.) -Jailbreak - by Neru (featuring Kagamine Rin) -Here comes Karakasa-san - by Iyaiya P (featuring Kagamine Len. -Egoist - by Onuma Parlsley (Featuring V flower.) -Abnormality dancin' girl - by Guchiri (I think) (Featuring V flower.) There are so many more but these are the ones I would love to see you react too! Great video by the way, keep up the great job!
Minor correction, Servant of Evil is part of the Daughter of Evil series and is part of the Evillious Chronicles franchise. Allen sacrificing himself for Riliane in that song is so sad and even more so in the books where Ney killed his crush Michaela and the part where Allen had to kill his adoptive father Leonhart.
My Personal faves that you could react to: The Chattering Lack of Common sense w/ Gumi and Yoholoid The Distortionist w/ Ghost Honey I'm Home also w/ Ghost Tarantula w/ Oliver Dummy March w/ Oliver Crazy Clown w/ Hatsune Miku and Kaito Circle You, Circle You w/ a ton of vocaloids (this one is VERY creepy) Grave Sending Song w/ Ren and Len (this one is cool with earbuds, as one sings in one ear and the other sing in the opposite ear) I really like creepy ones lmao
On the topic of Japanese songs, i highly recommend giving BABYMETAL a try. Yes, it is metal and no, there are no actual babies. They are (originally) a group of 3 Japanese girls and a metal band and their music is a combination of kawaii pop and hard metal. The songs are amazing!! Or very surprising. For more up beat and happily sounding songs, I recommend Gimme Chocolate, Catch me if you can, KARATE is uplifting and line! which is like a 2010 experimental song. A very huge positive thing about babymetal is that even many of the most hot metal heads love these girls.
It makes me so unbelievably happy to see you being so enthusiastic and excited about vocaloid!! This has been my hyperfixation for nearly a DECADE and its all so amazing
if you're planning to make another vocaloid video, I would recommend Maretu and Kikou, I personally really like their music and I'm sure other people in the comment section do too.
i highly recommend kikuo's vocaloid songs! they're sort of abstract with lots of experienting with sound effects but i think that's what makes them special!
I HIGHKEY recommend a song called "The Medical Anomaly" by RIP! It also uses Oliver, but it's probably the most impressive usage of him I've ever heard. Oliver was originally designed for choir type stuff where you would need a high pitched young boy to sing formal sounding songs, but people in the fandom tend to make him sing pop songs and stuff without bothering to adjust his tone so that he sounds less 'choiry', i guess? But RIP managed to make him sing something out of his recommended genre without making him too high pitched and soft like everyone else does, and it works SO well.
if you plan on reacting more to vocaloid songs, here's some of my favorite producers and my favorite songs of them: -> GHOST: - The Distortionist - Spider on the Wall - Those Who Carried On - The Chattering Lack of Common Sense -> Vane/Vane Lily: - Paparazzi Murder Party - This is My Heart - The Making of A Chimera -> R.I.P/R.I.Producer/Really Introverted Producer - What Gave It Away - The Medical Anomaly - Corrosion - Pyrite Girl -> CREEP-P/Eyeris - Creative - Hyperdontia - Novocaine - Karma (Hyperdontia and Novocaine were made in collaboration with GHOST) all of these lean to the more dark side of things, but are still amazing songs nonetheless I totally recommend them!!
For more Vocaloid stuff, I highly recommend Lost One's Weeping and Tokyo Teddy Bear (Rin), Rolling Girl, World is Mine (Miku) and Bring it on! (Rin and Len) Those are just a handful of my favorites, but they're all amazing in their own way!
I really recommend Kikuo's songs! Their music is amazing but beware some of the songs touch on some pretty dark and sensitive topics but here's some of my favorite Kikuo songs! Aishite Aishite Aishite (Love me, Love me, Love me) Chiri chiri juso Let's go to Heaven Breaking Things into Pieces Kikuo's songs have such amazing melodies and are so creative and unique i love Kikou's music sm!
YEAHHH! I’d love to you react to Steampianist next! It would be... interesting :) esp with how you reacted to GHOST (songs i recommend from him would be “secrets of wysteria”, “perfumer’s perfect fumes”, and “twaddles of a flue faker”)
Just gonna throw out here that if you want to listen to an interesting voice, look for songs featuring Kaai Yuki. Inabakumori is a producer who mainly uses her and their songs are amazing. The interesting thing about Yuki's voice is that it was recorded by an elementary school child (fourth grade, so probably 9 years old at the time). Yuki and Oliver are the only Vocaloids who's voices come from children instead of adults and in my opinion you can truly hear the difference. Yuki has a definitely childish voice, but at the same time quite mellow. You should check out "Pascal Beats", "Lagtrain" and "An image in the making", all by inabakumori.
If you want some more japanese artist to react/listen to, then I would recommend giving Ado a listen. She's a great artist who I think just graduated or is still in highschool with an amazing voice and songs that bop. Somes songs by her that i would listen to are -Readymade -Gira Gira -Odo -Usseewa
That erratic-bop has been a thing in vocaloid for so long, and it's one of the things i like the best. Like since Hachi times and until now with producers like Niru Kajitsu that chaotic harmony thing is just such a cool thing to listen to. Glad you enjoyed it!
Here's a list of my favourites vocaloid song that you should listen to : - Cendrillon - Housewife radio (ghost) - honey im home (ghost) -roki (mikito-p) -the lost one's weeping (neru; and please, listen to this one with subtitles) -gegokujou - dancing samurai -bad end night (hitoshizuku) - vampire’s pathos (hitoshizuku) -mind brand (Maretu) If you want some creepy songs: -kagome kagome -secrets of whistheria -novocaine (creep-p) -dark wood circus -the Fox's Wedding (masa) There's many other amazing vocaloid songs but I can't tell all of them ^^'
Please react to more GHOST! (Songs I'd like to see: Honey I'm Home, The Distortionist, Chattering Lack Of Common Sense, Appetite Of A People Pleaser, Hypodontia)
great video, i'm glad you're enjoying what vocaloid producers have to offer! one thing i want to note is that a lot of vocaloid songs are heavily story-focused, such as the daughter of evil and servant of evil songs by mothy(which i heavily recommend, along with the other songs in that series), and you might want to watch those with subtitles where possible, if you have any interest in following the stories or meanings of such songs.
As an avid Vocaloid fan going on 11 years now, it makes me so happy to see how enthusiastic Mathew is about hearing some of these songs 🎵 💕 It just makes my day to see a fan forming within him 😀
gotta love how absolutely terrified by amygdala's ragdoll he is lmao, It's one of my favorites from ghost and their first song I've listened to (way before the animation meme was a thing btw). I remember being creeped out by it so much the first time i listened to it.
I'm surprised you haven't reacted to "Matryoshka" yet, I feel like it's one of the most famous Vocaloid songs ever (the Gumi & Miku version, there is a lot of cover)! Or at least the visuals are, there were so many cosplays of them when it came out, similar as with "Magnet")
I highly recommend Evillious Chronicles It's a series of vocaloid songs and they all connect and form a huge(and quite confusing) story, the songs are catchy as well while narrating the story There's also great vocaloid songs from Neru, Dasu, Steampianist, Kira, etc. (there were too many so I can't mention them all xd)
If you're interested in doing a longer reaction to Vocaloid songs, I'd suggest looking into the Evillious Chronicles. Some content isn't for the faint of heart, but it's still very amazingly produced
Finally came across this lovely reaction! If you love Vocaloids so much, I have some recommendations (make sure to find English or subtitled versions; story is important): - The Evillious Chronicles (or, if that's too much, the Daughter of Evil subseries is probably a good start, and many versions exist) by various vocaloids - the ∞nighT series by various vocaloids - Paper Plane by Kagamine Rin&Len - The Flames of Yellow Phosphorus by Kagamine Rin warning - many of these are emotional
Aaaahhh I love it that you are reacting to more vocaloid songs :D I really recomend listening to any song from producer GIGA, they are one of my favorites.
amygdala's rag-doll was my fav song for the longest time! It was on my list of things you should react to and my jaw dropped when I found out you were going to react to it! :D
I started listening to vocaloid since 2014 in my freshman year in high school from an app and love the music I’m happy your listening to them it get better in time haha great video dude want more :)
there is a vocaloid song by oliver (yes, ALL of his songs are creepy as fuck) and its about a real life cannibal. they even used a recording of his voice at the end! its my favv oliver song :))
I really recomend you look imto more GHOST songs, theyre one of my favourite musical artist and basically all of their songs are massiv bangers, even tho they have darker tones :>
Oliver is often used for creepier songs, because he is an older vocaloid - so not so smooth as the new ones, and his design often features him with a bandaged over eye - and something about a little boy who is injured and secluded often drives him to be used for spookier songs!
Nice! Japanese vocaloid has been my favourite music genre for years and It's super cool to see you listening to these songs and appreciating Japanese music
Idk if you know but they make concerts with "holograms" and they are cool and also kinda weird. If i may recommend one would be Nico Nico Cho Party 2015 I like a lot of those songs and there are two male vocaloids, Len the one you reacted in this video and Gakupo (whose voice is from Gackt, a very famous jrock vocalist)
Your videos are always so fun to watch! If you wanna hear another mega fresh song with a guitar solo, there’s a new song by Hitoshizuku x Yama called Last Knight Battle. Hitoshizuku x Yama honestly has sooo many great songs, and he even uses up to 8 Vocaloids in some of them! I really hope to see you react to more Vocaloid songs, even if you don’t listen to any of these.
I recommend wowaka, hachi, hachioji-p, mothy, and supercell(ryo) as a great smash course in some of the greats. The best thing about vocaloid is the insane diversity and variety in tones and styles from producer to producer, and that as much as it can be cute, it also offers an "anonymous" way for a music creator to vent traumas or dark stories in their music without being the face of that, leading to the spectrum of this hyper dark horror vocaloid and the jpop cute and sweet or just upbeat and fun vocaloid songs. You truly never know what you'll get. I personally love Hachi the most as a vocaloid producer and I think you'll ADORE the instrumentation of their music. Hachi reccs: Panda Hero, Matryoshka, Rasetsu to Mukuro, room 305, Lynne
A few favourites of mine with really interesting sound are Tokyo Funka feat. Gumi, Alluring Secret - Black Vow feat. Rin&Len, and Tarantula feat. Oliver (he's definitely my favourite English Vocaloid, by the way!)
I don't usually comment on your vids but I think you should so a vid where you react to your viewers music, I think it will help them both in advice and attention. Starting from scratch on TH-cam is hard, I think you know this already.
I’m really glad you enjoy ghost! My favorite songs are the Distortionist and Rotary dial you should definitely give them a listen! Edit: The new song reckless battery burns is one of my favorites too! It does have suicidal themes though so it’s up to you if you want to listen to it or not
I know KDA ☺️ been playing league for 8 years haha. It’s occurred to me that while I know all the songs, I’ve not watched the music videos so that’s a possibility!
i love your reactions!! i heard you going on about how the voice is very hard to tell that it’s vocaloid,, and if you want a song that does that i recommend “rolling girl” i know some people on the discord also recommended it but for real, when i first heard it all i could think was “i have NEVER heard miku sound like this” wowaka pretty much raised me growing up and i’ll miss always. some extras just because i did recommend them on the server awhile back too kikuo!!!! hole dwelling, corpse dance, Gomennne Gomennne, moon demon, all of these songs are amazing and i think you would enjoy the production choices of them all :D though warning for the lyrical content corpse dance and Gomennne Gomennne have some really messed up lyrics if you really pay attention to them i hope you have a great day!! you don’t have to actually react to these ik you get requests all the time and it might be overwhelming,, remember to take days just for you and stay well!!
Your analyse are very good, I love your reaction :D I recommend you Tokyo Teddy Bear, Wowaka's songs or even Songs of the Kagerou Project (more especially "lost time memory"
A lot of the top recommended songs are pretty old (nothing against old songs! I love them just like everyone else!) so here are some songs that were released in the past 1-3 years: Getcha! by Giga and Kira Ready Steady by Giga Villain by Teniwoha Goodbye Declaration by Chinozo Bitter Chocolate Decoration by Syudou KING by Kanaria Empty Land Nightmare by Harumaki Gohan Those are just some, but I think they’re a pretty good representation of the new Vocaloid stuff that’s been very popular!
if you like these you will LOVE kikuo ! his songs are super dark but sound incredible ! i recommend : aishite aishite aishite, hole dwelling, and histrionic ( vocaloid ver. )
YOOO IM SO GLAD UR REACTING TO GHOST!! please please do honey im home that song is so good and so disturbing, i would LOVE to see your reaction to it!!
I was so pleasantly surprised when you watched amygdala's ragdoll! It's one of GHOST's older songs and I'm happy that it was covered. If you thought that one was creepy you should see the rest of their songs dude (i think you would like Happy Days!)
dude if u make another part it would be cool for u to see some of the live performances, 3 of my favorite live ones are rin and len "remote controller","bring it on", and "roki" and i want to recommend the lives bc they are basically a hologram on a stage with a live band playing the songs and the vocaliods on stage singing slightly differently then the original "on radio" song if that makes sense, like how real singers sing a bit differently every show they do. just a cool thing i wanted to share that u could be inclined to see for your self!
OMG FINALLY SOMEONE REACTS TO OLIVER, h'es so underated bc of his creepy sounds and there´s a lot of amazing songs using him such as Tarantula, pumpkin spice dummy and lots more.
Mitchie M is one of my favorite producers with their upbeat and just really catchy stuff, so watching the first couple minutes only to hear you already like Viva made my day! Glad you liked the vocaloid stuff :D
i just so happened to stumble on this video, and its SO refreshing to see someone genuinely interested in how vocaloid sounds! i feel like so many are turned off by the fact that its software, or are icked out by aspects of the culture.. when its like, hello are u hearing these BEATS though?? i've always been a sucker for experimental stuff, and in vocaloid you can never run out of that ⭐️ (i recommend you check out: -mikito-p he sings with his vocaloids and its just so fun "platonic girl feat. gumi " and "roki" are great ! -kemu. "reincarnation" and "life reset button" slap. both songs are in a series called pandora voxx. -hitoshizuku x yama their songs almost give off a broadway musical vibe at times, and they're very story driven ! bad end night, alice in NY, and seasonal feathers are good ones to start)
I put my list on the last video, but imma just put it here, bc my favs must be heard!! (Forgive me i have allready listed a song that had allready been listened to) - rolling girl - ghost rule - patchwork staccato (hope i spelled it right) - triple baka - childish war - kyokan (honestly i listened to kradness version so i cant remember if it is a vocaloid song) - venom - electric angel - drop pop candy - the chattering lack of common sense - love me love me love me - and lastly caramel heaven!!
I love your videos and these are some vocaloid songs I reccomend: The Distortionist by ghost, Ghost Rule with fukase, Obey with fukase, The Fukase cover of Jack Stauber's buttercup, and Lost ones weeping with Fukase and Miku
Every time you make a comment about Viva Happy being peppy and forcing you to be happy my only thought is "yup that's Michie M", whenever it's WONDERFUL OPPERTUNITY being fast and erratic i just think "Yup, that's just them", whenever it's about GHOST being creepy and unnerving and robotic my brain just says "It's a ghost song, what do you expect", I hd to keep reminding myself you had come in with not expectations for their styles! I love listening to people react to vocaloid blind for that very reason though, it's so great to see people experience something I love for the first time. For me, if someone reccomends me a song from one of the prolific or popular channels, I know what to expect, but newcomers like you only really have the thumbnail of the song and the title to judge by, and those often are misleading! The surprise is just so fun to see ww
omg I'd LOVE to see you react to Utsu-P! particularly NULL (ぬる) , Death of the Law, and perhaps the ECHO remix! Utsu-P is a well known metal vocaloid producer, and I just have found metal vocaloid to be such a weird niche that is perfect for me lol
and It's not just Vocaloid there's Synthv, Utau, CEVIO, Openutau (it's like a update to utau) Emvoice, and more. Some of these I have. I have Synthv basic, Openutau, and Vocaloid4 FE
I love seeing people listen to vocaloid for the first time with enthusiasm. I've never really heard anyone else describe music as being "bouncy" before but I have always said this and am definitely on the same page. I don't know what it is about vocaloid music exactly but it's very hard sometimes for me to go back to listening to non vocaloid music but don't get me wrong I'll listen to any song if I think the vibe is right.
I have been gone from youtube ajajaj and I never expected to return to this! Loving it, Vocaloid is such a nostalgic thing to me and still to this day I go back and enjoy my fav songs. It would be great if you reacted to more Vocaloid and I also really recomend reacting to Utaites (I bet you would love them) like Soraru or Mafumafu
Vocaloid works so if you wanna make the word* asa you'll get a singer to sing "#a, a-s s-a, a" and you make a library out of all possible sounds and combinations. Like fragments! They then preserve the timbre by adding in autotune or whatever they think is needed to sound consistent between takes, since different takes might sound different to others. That's why vocaloid as default sounds very robotic but in a smooth way. It has to be because otherwise it'll sound very very robotic like John L. Kelly's voice synth sample that sang "bicycle built for two" in 1962
I suggest that in your next vocaloid video (if you ever plan on doing another one) you listen to Corpse Dance by Kikuo! It's a very *very* VERY dark song tho, but from what I've heard you can find worse on Kikuo's channel! It features Hatsune Miku and it's got gorgeus violin in it. :) I also recommend you search the trigger warnings for the song.
Third time recomenting "Daughter of Evil", "Servant of Evil" and "Regret Message" (They go together, in that order, and I recoment using subtitles unless you want to gues what is going on xD)
i would suggest nulut - fixer, it's just life (both of them are flower, first one is electroswing), fragile, empty prayer (this one has a great music video) n-buna (currently in a band known as yorushika! their music is also great) - sea lily deep sea tale, first train and kafka, transparent elegy hachi (also known as kenshi yonezu, he does his own music now without vocaloid) - dune, donut hole (THESE ARE CLASSICS), vivi neru - lost one's weeping (classic) wowaka - i don't listen to a lot of his music but we all know that rolling girl is a classic. it made me bawl my eyes out. keina suda (balloon) - he makes self covers of his songs but most notable: veil, lead, charles (i think one of his songs was an anime opening?) im not suggesting artists that are less well known because you know heehoo. but! there are a lot of japanese artists and bands! i would suggest amazarashi, yorushika, mafumafu, kenshi yonezu, eve, shinsei kamattechan, asian kung fu generation, kami-sama i have noticed
I’d appreciate if you’d consider supporting me on Patreon 💙 patreon.com/mathewmckenna
Also feel free to let me know what you’d like to see next! 🥰
You should react to giveon's music
My man, vocaloids are the gateway to a huge genre of music in Asia. Many of them (the creators) do become full-fledge producers and even sing their own creations (yes it’s humanly possible).
These Singers are then called Utaites!
I suggest you look into them (mafumafu, soraru, amatsuki, nqrse) because they are insanely talented since they do covers and write their own songs.
I’d love to see you react to fnaf the musical made by random encounters, it’s really well made and includes amazing content creators
You gotta listen to Ado's original songs it's amazing

If you listen to more then I definitely recommend the song Rolling Girl. It was one of the first vocaloid songs I ever listened too. Though I will warn you the lyrics do talk about bullying and harassment, and the end sort of implies committing unalive.
strong vouch
VOUCH
YESSSSSS
OH MY GOD YES I REMEMBER CRYING SO MANY TIMES-
I recommend Mawarine Shuu's version of Rolling Girl
I absolutely adore GHOST, a lot of their music is darker- And some of the songs are actually a way of them dealing/coping with things that have happened in their life. As their lyrics are a bit dark, I would love to see you more so focus on their songs. I always say there are three kinds of Vocaloid songs, the Cheery upbeat ones, The 'oh this sounds nice' but looking at the lyrics reveals something sinister, and finally The More Dark/ Unsettling songs. I love how different the songs can be. Another Vocaloid artist that's similar to GHOST is
R.I.P
The Medical Anomaly, Pyrite Girl, and CORROSION
are my favorites by them. I also recommend some more GHOST songs,
Appetite of a People Pleaser, The Distortionist, and Honey Im Home, and Two of a Kind.
BIG MOOD I also adore GHOST
GHOST could probably be a single video if Mathew wants
And I agree R.I.P has amazing songs as well
Steampianist also has a lot of dark and very pog songs like secrets of wysteria, the experiment, thing, meat man, and a lot more. Entomologists by GHOST and The medical anomaly by R.I.P are my favorites by them ٩( ᐛ )و
Kikuo, Machigerita, Dasu, Momocashew, and Steampianist are also all so good.
(And of course, the entirety of Kagerou Project and the Evillous Chronicles.)
EDIT: I keep adding more. At this rate I'll never stop adding, goodness.
My favorite’s The Distortionist. :)

I highly recommend listening to Wowaka's song's! Wowaka is considered to be like the father of vocaloid and you can def see his influence to this day! I also recommend Giga's and Kira's songs too as they are sooooo good! Looking for the English subtitles to songs will be good too cause many happy sounding songs are actually very very dark and many songs are about different issues in today's world
I love wowaks’s songs ( Rest In Peace) 💖❤️🔥🕊🙏
oh and dont forget neru’s songs
Yes, Kira's songs rock. He's got to listen to why does a heart break. It's my favorite
wowaka is one of my fav vocaloid artists and always will be. when i found out he died i was heartbroken
@ぃゃmada [+m8] My knowledge of Vocaloid history is very little sadly and when I try to find some videos on it, they always talk about Wowaka. Sorry for missing them mate
Some Vocaloid stuff I can recommend is
- Masa Works Design
- The Evillious Chronicles
- Dasu (tagalog)
- KurageP
- steampianist (english)
- Kira (english)
- Vocaloid choruses in general
and
- thisendlessforest has a LOT of popular and less common songs with english subtitles
Neru is also a good one with songs like Jailbreak and of course Lost One’s Weeping
Evillious is so long, that's a whole 90 songs, maybe more
@@peachesplums it really is… but some of them would be really cool to see him react to. maybe not the super popular/common ones
@@marveludus and maybe not that one 15min song. though there is one guy that reacted to every single evillious song
@@peachesplums there is?? whoaa
Definitely recommend “lost one's weeping” another really good vocaloid song. There's also whole ass plot lines. I haven't been into it for a while but it's got a lot of stuff to look into.
yesssss lost one’s weeping is amazingggggg
VOUCH

If he’s that wowed by vocaloids, he needs to cover utaites. Actual people who also make vocaloid songs and SINGS THEM (like Mafumafu, Soraru, Nqrse, Amatsuki). They are awesome!

If you want more songs from ghost! Then here are my FAVORITES
-the chattering lack of common sense
-honey I'm home
-housewife radio
-the distortionist
I find entomologists is also a really good one
Housewife Radio and chattering lack of common sense my beloved
He listened to Candle Queen in his first vocaloid reaction!
honey im home!! its so good
What about "The Things I Deserve"? That one's amazing!
With vocaloid songs you're either happy, depressed, or disturbed, there's no in between :)
and 100% of the time you are JAMMIN
Or concerned sometimes x)
Absolutely correct to an uncanny level
i think you’d get a kick out of GIGA vocaloid songs, i love his tuning and music in general SO much.
yess this!! i love giga so much, ready steady is my favorite- he'd also like kira, his new song 4blood is SO good
“So aggressively positive”
The song:
‘I cry myself to sleep!’
IT'S MY TIME TO SHINE!
A little background. Ive been an avid fan of Vocaloid for many years. Starting out as a scene kid thing and growing into the passion of the meanings in each song and how each individual artist portrays and rigs their vocaloids.
Wowaka is one of the MOST memorable Vocaloid artists out there.
His music portrays themes of highschool distress, accidental teen motherhood and depression as a whole.
The reason he is so famous is because of his wild productions.
As someone once put it, Wowaka makes chaos meet harmony.
I couldn't explain to you in words his music, you just have to listen.
The most famous being
-Rolling Girl
-Unknown Mother Goose
-Unhappy Refrain
Unfortunately, we lost him on April 5th, 2019.
He died at the age of 31 due to heart failure.
Even with his loss, a lot of Vocaloid fans listen and enjoy his works today
Rest peacefully Wowaka 🖤
There are so many good vocaloid songs. Ones I'd recomend for you to react to in the next video (if there is one) are;
-Rolling girl - by Wowaka (Featuring Hatsune Miku.)
-Jailbreak - by Neru (featuring Kagamine Rin)
-Here comes Karakasa-san - by Iyaiya P (featuring Kagamine Len.
-Egoist - by Onuma Parlsley (Featuring V flower.)
-Abnormality dancin' girl - by Guchiri (I think) (Featuring V flower.)
There are so many more but these are the ones I would love to see you react too! Great video by the way, keep up the great job!
EGOIST AND ABNORMALITY DANCING GIRL ARE MY FAVOURITES YES
@@aoifenewman HELL YEAH V FLOWER SUPREMACY
WHAT ABOUT TWO FACED LOVERS 😔
@@Uhhhhhh64 YES ITS SO GOOD
@@Uhhhhhh64 Two faced lovers is great but i limited myself to one song per artist, otherwise there would be too many Neru and Wowaka songs lmao.
The thing I recommend the most is the Servant of Evil series made with Vocaloid. It's an entire story that probably needs its own reaction video.
Not to mention that’s a small piece of an even bigger plot lmfao
@@aeneasvanillo7100 I was referring to all of it. lol I don't remember what the whole thing was called.
@@StrangeStartrackerArt Oh I see! It’s called The Evillious Chronicles for future reference
I VOTE THIS! Its called story of evil i believe.
Minor correction, Servant of Evil is part of the Daughter of Evil series and is part of the Evillious Chronicles franchise. Allen sacrificing himself for Riliane in that song is so sad and even more so in the books where Ney killed his crush Michaela and the part where Allen had to kill his adoptive father Leonhart.
My Personal faves that you could react to:
The Chattering Lack of Common sense w/ Gumi and Yoholoid
The Distortionist w/ Ghost
Honey I'm Home also w/ Ghost
Tarantula w/ Oliver
Dummy March w/ Oliver
Crazy Clown w/ Hatsune Miku and Kaito
Circle You, Circle You w/ a ton of vocaloids (this one is VERY creepy)
Grave Sending Song w/ Ren and Len (this one is cool with earbuds, as one sings in one ear and the other sing in the opposite ear)
I really like creepy ones lmao
On the topic of Japanese songs, i highly recommend giving BABYMETAL a try. Yes, it is metal and no, there are no actual babies. They are (originally) a group of 3 Japanese girls and a metal band and their music is a combination of kawaii pop and hard metal. The songs are amazing!! Or very surprising. For more up beat and happily sounding songs, I recommend Gimme Chocolate, Catch me if you can, KARATE is uplifting and line! which is like a 2010 experimental song. A very huge positive thing about babymetal is that even many of the most hot metal heads love these girls.
Gimme chocolate and karate r my favorite songs from that band :)
Seeing this now that they've made their comback is really funny
Babymetal forever!
It makes me so unbelievably happy to see you being so enthusiastic and excited about vocaloid!! This has been my hyperfixation for nearly a DECADE and its all so amazing
if you're planning to make another vocaloid video, I would recommend Maretu and Kikou, I personally really like their music and I'm sure other people in the comment section do too.
Kikuo*, and yes I agree
@@dilya5097 yeah I typed fast so I misspelled it
i highly recommend kikuo's vocaloid songs! they're sort of abstract with lots of experienting with sound effects but i think that's what makes them special!
YESS
I HIGHKEY recommend a song called "The Medical Anomaly" by RIP!
It also uses Oliver, but it's probably the most impressive usage of him I've ever heard. Oliver was originally designed for choir type stuff where you would need a high pitched young boy to sing formal sounding songs, but people in the fandom tend to make him sing pop songs and stuff without bothering to adjust his tone so that he sounds less 'choiry', i guess? But RIP managed to make him sing something out of his recommended genre without making him too high pitched and soft like everyone else does, and it works SO well.
Medical anomaly my beloved!!!
Yes! I freaking love The Medical Anomaly!
that song is so good
if you plan on reacting more to vocaloid songs, here's some of my favorite producers and my favorite songs of them:
-> GHOST:
- The Distortionist
- Spider on the Wall
- Those Who Carried On
- The Chattering Lack of Common Sense
-> Vane/Vane Lily:
- Paparazzi Murder Party
- This is My Heart
- The Making of A Chimera
-> R.I.P/R.I.Producer/Really Introverted Producer
- What Gave It Away
- The Medical Anomaly
- Corrosion
- Pyrite Girl
-> CREEP-P/Eyeris
- Creative
- Hyperdontia
- Novocaine
- Karma
(Hyperdontia and Novocaine were made in collaboration with GHOST)
all of these lean to the more dark side of things, but are still amazing songs nonetheless I totally recommend them!!
For more Vocaloid stuff, I highly recommend Lost One's Weeping and Tokyo Teddy Bear (Rin), Rolling Girl, World is Mine (Miku) and Bring it on! (Rin and Len)
Those are just a handful of my favorites, but they're all amazing in their own way!
World is mine is just : 😍
@@Uhhhhhh64 It is!
There's so many songs to recommend though @-@
@@Chu-Raya ikr ^^ like so many songs like two faced lovers and ghost rule and just,, agh so many :’D
Oh yeah, the growl in ghost rule is just... Yesss!
Electric Angel is really catchy too!
@@Chu-Raya omg yeeess :0
I really recommend Kikuo's songs! Their music is amazing but beware some of the songs touch on some pretty dark and sensitive topics but here's some of my favorite Kikuo songs!
Aishite Aishite Aishite (Love me, Love me, Love me)
Chiri chiri juso
Let's go to Heaven
Breaking Things into Pieces
Kikuo's songs have such amazing melodies and are so creative and unique i love Kikou's music sm!
Please listen to more GHOST!! Their stuff is amazing and catchy
oh my god seeing you being enthusiastic over vocaloid makes me so happy!! you should consider listening to kikuo or maretu!!
YEAHHH! I’d love to you react to Steampianist next! It would be... interesting :) esp with how you reacted to GHOST
(songs i recommend from him would be “secrets of wysteria”, “perfumer’s perfect fumes”, and “twaddles of a flue faker”)
Just gonna throw out here that if you want to listen to an interesting voice, look for songs featuring Kaai Yuki. Inabakumori is a producer who mainly uses her and their songs are amazing. The interesting thing about Yuki's voice is that it was recorded by an elementary school child (fourth grade, so probably 9 years old at the time). Yuki and Oliver are the only Vocaloids who's voices come from children instead of adults and in my opinion you can truly hear the difference. Yuki has a definitely childish voice, but at the same time quite mellow. You should check out "Pascal Beats", "Lagtrain" and "An image in the making", all by inabakumori.
He should totally do a full video/reaction to GHOST’s music, they deserve recognition for their BUSSIN music !!
If you want some more japanese artist to react/listen to, then I would recommend giving Ado a listen. She's a great artist who I think just graduated or is still in highschool with an amazing voice and songs that bop. Somes songs by her that i would listen to are
-Readymade
-Gira Gira
-Odo
-Usseewa
That erratic-bop has been a thing in vocaloid for so long, and it's one of the things i like the best. Like since Hachi times and until now with producers like Niru Kajitsu that chaotic harmony thing is just such a cool thing to listen to. Glad you enjoyed it!
Here's a list of my favourites vocaloid song that you should listen to :
- Cendrillon
- Housewife radio (ghost)
- honey im home (ghost)
-roki (mikito-p)
-the lost one's weeping (neru; and please, listen to this one with subtitles)
-gegokujou
- dancing samurai
-bad end night (hitoshizuku)
- vampire’s pathos (hitoshizuku)
-mind brand (Maretu)
If you want some creepy songs:
-kagome kagome
-secrets of whistheria
-novocaine (creep-p)
-dark wood circus
-the Fox's Wedding (masa)
There's many other amazing vocaloid songs but I can't tell all of them ^^'
Please react to more GHOST! (Songs I'd like to see: Honey I'm Home, The Distortionist, Chattering Lack Of Common Sense, Appetite Of A People Pleaser, Hypodontia)
Awesome to see you react to GHOST, I love their music! They have some really good instrumentals as well as Vocaloid songs
great video, i'm glad you're enjoying what vocaloid producers have to offer! one thing i want to note is that a lot of vocaloid songs are heavily story-focused, such as the daughter of evil and servant of evil songs by mothy(which i heavily recommend, along with the other songs in that series), and you might want to watch those with subtitles where possible, if you have any interest in following the stories or meanings of such songs.
As an avid Vocaloid fan going on 11 years now, it makes me so happy to see how enthusiastic Mathew is about hearing some of these songs 🎵 💕 It just makes my day to see a fan forming within him 😀
gotta love how absolutely terrified by amygdala's ragdoll he is lmao, It's one of my favorites from ghost and their first song I've listened to (way before the animation meme was a thing btw). I remember being creeped out by it so much the first time i listened to it.
A ggood one is: Darling by MARETU, Disaperance addiction (have many names) or MARETU in general!
I'm surprised you haven't reacted to "Matryoshka" yet, I feel like it's one of the most famous Vocaloid songs ever (the Gumi & Miku version, there is a lot of cover)! Or at least the visuals are, there were so many cosplays of them when it came out, similar as with "Magnet")
Okay dude i just got so goddamn happy when not only was GHOST featured, but a song using my favourite voicebank Oliver. Bless you
I highly recommend Evillious Chronicles
It's a series of vocaloid songs and they all connect and form a huge(and quite confusing) story, the songs are catchy as well while narrating the story
There's also great vocaloid songs from Neru, Dasu, Steampianist, Kira, etc.
(there were too many so I can't mention them all xd)
If you're interested in doing a longer reaction to Vocaloid songs, I'd suggest looking into the Evillious Chronicles. Some content isn't for the faint of heart, but it's still very amazingly produced
Finally came across this lovely reaction! If you love Vocaloids so much, I have some recommendations (make sure to find English or subtitled versions; story is important):
- The Evillious Chronicles (or, if that's too much, the Daughter of Evil subseries is probably a good start, and many versions exist) by various vocaloids
- the ∞nighT series by various vocaloids
- Paper Plane by Kagamine Rin&Len
- The Flames of Yellow Phosphorus by Kagamine Rin
warning - many of these are emotional
Aaaahhh I love it that you are reacting to more vocaloid songs :D I really recomend listening to any song from producer GIGA, they are one of my favorites.
amygdala's rag-doll was my fav song for the longest time! It was on my list of things you should react to and my jaw dropped when I found out you were going to react to it! :D
I started listening to vocaloid since 2014 in my freshman year in high school from an app and love the music I’m happy your listening to them it get better in time haha great video dude want more :)
there is a vocaloid song by oliver (yes, ALL of his songs are creepy as fuck) and its about a real life cannibal. they even used a recording of his voice at the end! its my favv oliver song :))
I really recomend you look imto more GHOST songs, theyre one of my favourite musical artist and basically all of their songs are massiv bangers, even tho they have darker tones :>
yesss this is gonna be so much fun! and probably nostalgic
Oliver is often used for creepier songs, because he is an older vocaloid - so not so smooth as the new ones, and his design often features him with a bandaged over eye - and something about a little boy who is injured and secluded often drives him to be used for spookier songs!
holy crap im so happy one of the songs is a wandopo song those guys are INCREDIBLE
I just found out about your channel through this video and I love your personality! I’m also really glad to hear how much you enjoyed vocaloid:D
Nice! Japanese vocaloid has been my favourite music genre for years and It's super cool to see you listening to these songs and appreciating Japanese music
Idk if you know but they make concerts with "holograms" and they are cool and also kinda weird.
If i may recommend one would be Nico Nico Cho Party 2015 I like a lot of those songs and there are two male vocaloids, Len the one you reacted in this video and Gakupo (whose voice is from Gackt, a very famous jrock vocalist)
Your videos are always so fun to watch! If you wanna hear another mega fresh song with a guitar solo, there’s a new song by Hitoshizuku x Yama called Last Knight Battle. Hitoshizuku x Yama honestly has sooo many great songs, and he even uses up to 8 Vocaloids in some of them! I really hope to see you react to more Vocaloid songs, even if you don’t listen to any of these.
I recommend wowaka, hachi, hachioji-p, mothy, and supercell(ryo) as a great smash course in some of the greats. The best thing about vocaloid is the insane diversity and variety in tones and styles from producer to producer, and that as much as it can be cute, it also offers an "anonymous" way for a music creator to vent traumas or dark stories in their music without being the face of that, leading to the spectrum of this hyper dark horror vocaloid and the jpop cute and sweet or just upbeat and fun vocaloid songs. You truly never know what you'll get. I personally love Hachi the most as a vocaloid producer and I think you'll ADORE the instrumentation of their music.
Hachi reccs: Panda Hero, Matryoshka, Rasetsu to Mukuro, room 305, Lynne
UGH yes, you NEED to listen to Ghost - Housewife Radio. It's to die for.
A few favourites of mine with really interesting sound are Tokyo Funka feat. Gumi, Alluring Secret - Black Vow feat. Rin&Len, and Tarantula feat. Oliver (he's definitely my favourite English Vocaloid, by the way!)
I don't usually comment on your vids but I think you should so a vid where you react to your viewers music, I think it will help them both in advice and attention. Starting from scratch on TH-cam is hard, I think you know this already.
I’m really glad you enjoy ghost! My favorite songs are the Distortionist and Rotary dial you should definitely give them a listen!
Edit: The new song reckless battery burns is one of my favorites too! It does have suicidal themes though so it’s up to you if you want to listen to it or not
*_You should also react to:_*
-Kikuo
- v flower
-Kira
In parts of "Viva Happy" there's some mmd which stands for Miku Miku Dance. My favorite parts of the video are when they use mmd
I love that you reacted to amygdala’s rag doll, oliver is my favorite vocaloid
Viva happy also just makes me so unconditionally happy
you should react to KDA!! they’re a virtual band kinda like vocaloid but their voices are real singers and have rlly interesting music videos
I know KDA ☺️ been playing league for 8 years haha. It’s occurred to me that while I know all the songs, I’ve not watched the music videos so that’s a possibility!
@@MathewMcKenna Have you watched Arcane? Feels like a content machine right now
i love your reactions!! i heard you going on about how the voice is very hard to tell that it’s vocaloid,, and if you want a song that does that i recommend “rolling girl” i know some people on the discord also recommended it but for real, when i first heard it all i could think was “i have NEVER heard miku sound like this” wowaka pretty much raised me growing up and i’ll miss always.
some extras just because i did recommend them on the server awhile back too
kikuo!!!!
hole dwelling, corpse dance, Gomennne Gomennne, moon demon, all of these songs are amazing and i think you would enjoy the production choices of them all :D though warning for the lyrical content corpse dance and Gomennne Gomennne have some really messed up lyrics if you really pay attention to them
i hope you have a great day!! you don’t have to actually react to these ik you get requests all the time and it might be overwhelming,, remember to take days just for you and stay well!!
Your analyse are very good, I love your reaction :D
I recommend you Tokyo Teddy Bear, Wowaka's songs or even Songs of the Kagerou Project (more especially "lost time memory"
A lot of the top recommended songs are pretty old (nothing against old songs! I love them just like everyone else!) so here are some songs that were released in the past 1-3 years:
Getcha! by Giga and Kira
Ready Steady by Giga
Villain by Teniwoha
Goodbye Declaration by Chinozo
Bitter Chocolate Decoration by Syudou
KING by Kanaria
Empty Land Nightmare by Harumaki Gohan
Those are just some, but I think they’re a pretty good representation of the new Vocaloid stuff that’s been very popular!
Typo, that last song is Melty Land Nightmare
if you like these you will LOVE kikuo ! his songs are super dark but sound incredible ! i recommend : aishite aishite aishite, hole dwelling, and histrionic ( vocaloid ver. )
YOOO IM SO GLAD UR REACTING TO GHOST!! please please do honey im home that song is so good and so disturbing, i would LOVE to see your reaction to it!!
I was so pleasantly surprised when you watched amygdala's ragdoll! It's one of GHOST's older songs and I'm happy that it was covered. If you thought that one was creepy you should see the rest of their songs dude (i think you would like Happy Days!)
The switch from Viva Happy to Amygdala's Ragdoll 💀
dude if u make another part it would be cool for u to see some of the live performances, 3 of my favorite live ones are rin and len "remote controller","bring it on", and "roki" and i want to recommend the lives bc they are basically a hologram on a stage with a live band playing the songs and the vocaliods on stage singing slightly differently then the original "on radio" song if that makes sense, like how real singers sing a bit differently every show they do. just a cool thing i wanted to share that u could be inclined to see for your self!
"what blows my mind is like how human-sounding it is."
That's Mitchie-M for you lol
I recommend Steampianist, they've got some awesome songs, my favourites are the ones they've done with Oliver!!
OMG FINALLY SOMEONE REACTS TO OLIVER, h'es so underated bc of his creepy sounds and there´s a lot of amazing songs using him such as Tarantula, pumpkin spice dummy and lots more.
now we wait for him to react to the scary ones
Mitchie M is one of my favorite producers with their upbeat and just really catchy stuff, so watching the first couple minutes only to hear you already like Viva made my day! Glad you liked the vocaloid stuff :D
Amygdala’s Ragdoll is probably the most “creepy” of the Oliver songs. (I say this in my own opinion considering I’ve heard many creepy Oliver songs.)
2:43 when I first played Freely Tomorrow in Project Diva. Now I have Miku Syndrome
i just so happened to stumble on this video, and its SO refreshing to see someone genuinely interested in how vocaloid sounds! i feel like so many are turned off by the fact that its software, or are icked out by aspects of the culture.. when its like, hello are u hearing these BEATS though?? i've always been a sucker for experimental stuff, and in vocaloid you can never run out of that ⭐️
(i recommend you check out:
-mikito-p
he sings with his vocaloids and its just so fun "platonic girl feat. gumi " and "roki" are great !
-kemu. "reincarnation" and "life reset button" slap. both songs are in a series called pandora voxx.
-hitoshizuku x yama
their songs almost give off a broadway musical vibe at times, and they're very story driven !
bad end night, alice in NY, and seasonal feathers are good ones to start)
if you plan to do a third part I really recomend the lost one´s weeping by neru
I put my list on the last video, but imma just put it here, bc my favs must be heard!!
(Forgive me i have allready listed a song that had allready been listened to)
- rolling girl
- ghost rule
- patchwork staccato (hope i spelled it right)
- triple baka
- childish war
- kyokan (honestly i listened to kradness version so i cant remember if it is a vocaloid song)
- venom
- electric angel
- drop pop candy
- the chattering lack of common sense
- love me love me love me
- and lastly caramel heaven!!
I love your videos and these are some vocaloid songs I reccomend: The Distortionist by ghost, Ghost Rule with fukase, Obey with fukase, The Fukase cover of Jack Stauber's buttercup, and Lost ones weeping with Fukase and Miku
Every time you make a comment about Viva Happy being peppy and forcing you to be happy my only thought is "yup that's Michie M", whenever it's WONDERFUL OPPERTUNITY being fast and erratic i just think "Yup, that's just them", whenever it's about GHOST being creepy and unnerving and robotic my brain just says "It's a ghost song, what do you expect", I hd to keep reminding myself you had come in with not expectations for their styles!
I love listening to people react to vocaloid blind for that very reason though, it's so great to see people experience something I love for the first time. For me, if someone reccomends me a song from one of the prolific or popular channels, I know what to expect, but newcomers like you only really have the thumbnail of the song and the title to judge by, and those often are misleading! The surprise is just so fun to see ww
Man I would just love for you to react to some more of the creepy vocaloids songs
omg I'd LOVE to see you react to Utsu-P!
particularly NULL (ぬる) , Death of the Law, and perhaps the ECHO remix!
Utsu-P is a well known metal vocaloid producer, and I just have found metal vocaloid to be such a weird niche that is perfect for me lol
“I’m Glad You’re Evil Too” by Pinocchio-P is a masterpiece
and It's not just Vocaloid there's Synthv, Utau, CEVIO, Openutau (it's like a update to utau) Emvoice, and more. Some of these I have. I have Synthv basic, Openutau, and Vocaloid4 FE
I love seeing people listen to vocaloid for the first time with enthusiasm. I've never really heard anyone else describe music as being "bouncy" before but I have always said this and am definitely on the same page. I don't know what it is about vocaloid music exactly but it's very hard sometimes for me to go back to listening to non vocaloid music but don't get me wrong I'll listen to any song if I think the vibe is right.
I have been gone from youtube ajajaj and I never expected to return to this! Loving it, Vocaloid is such a nostalgic thing to me and still to this day I go back and enjoy my fav songs. It would be great if you reacted to more Vocaloid and I also really recomend reacting to Utaites (I bet you would love them) like Soraru or Mafumafu
Vocaloid works so if you wanna make the word* asa you'll get a singer to sing "#a, a-s s-a, a" and you make a library out of all possible sounds and combinations. Like fragments!
They then preserve the timbre by adding in autotune or whatever they think is needed to sound consistent between takes, since different takes might sound different to others. That's why vocaloid as default sounds very robotic but in a smooth way. It has to be because otherwise it'll sound very very robotic like John L. Kelly's voice synth sample that sang "bicycle built for two" in 1962
I suggest that in your next vocaloid video (if you ever plan on doing another one) you listen to Corpse Dance by Kikuo! It's a very *very* VERY dark song tho, but from what I've heard you can find worse on Kikuo's channel! It features Hatsune Miku and it's got gorgeus violin in it. :) I also recommend you search the trigger warnings for the song.
I don't know a ton about vocaloid, but Jin (Shizen No Teki-P) makes such good songs!
Mitchie-M is a master at making vocaloids sound real--
Third time recomenting "Daughter of Evil", "Servant of Evil" and "Regret Message"
(They go together, in that order, and I recoment using subtitles unless you want to gues what is going on xD)
i would suggest
nulut - fixer, it's just life (both of them are flower, first one is electroswing), fragile, empty prayer (this one has a great music video)
n-buna (currently in a band known as yorushika! their music is also great) - sea lily deep sea tale, first train and kafka, transparent elegy
hachi (also known as kenshi yonezu, he does his own music now without vocaloid) - dune, donut hole (THESE ARE CLASSICS), vivi
neru - lost one's weeping (classic)
wowaka - i don't listen to a lot of his music but we all know that rolling girl is a classic. it made me bawl my eyes out.
keina suda (balloon) - he makes self covers of his songs but most notable: veil, lead, charles (i think one of his songs was an anime opening?)
im not suggesting artists that are less well known because you know heehoo. but! there are a lot of japanese artists and bands! i would suggest amazarashi, yorushika, mafumafu, kenshi yonezu, eve, shinsei kamattechan, asian kung fu generation, kami-sama i have noticed
Dude you gotta react to Maretu’s music his use of miku’s voice bank is so GOOD
"it got even creepier man..."
