Can we have a thread for vocalsynth music a la vocaloid, utau, voicevox, vsynth, etc? There is a huge blossoming community for these on Japanese internet and imageboards and I think it's very beautiful and worth looking into. Some questions to start the thread off
>What is your favorite vocalsynth?
>Is there any particular song you absolutely love? >Do you play any vocalsynth rhythm games like Project Diva?

Here's a song I really like:

>What is your favorite vocalsynth?
I really love Adachi Rei. Her voice is really unique and soothing. It's made of completely synthetic sounds with no base human voice and intentionally made to be robotic. She was made for a robotics project by missile39 (who is famous/infamous for his miku robot) and was crowdfunded by passionate fans of his robotics endeavors.
A video of her work in progress can be found here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8AR4E1wzPG0

>Is there any particular song you absolutely love?

Heat Abnormal by iyowa uses Adachi Rei and it's honestly one of the best songs I've ever heard. It is a really unique song that creates a surreal atmosphere with it's sound design, fast/erratic vocals, and subdued, melancholic piano. I highly recommend it, it is honestly one of iyowa's best songs and a staple of the entire scene in Japan.

>Do you play any vocalsynth rhythm games like Project Diva?

I've been dipping my toes into Project Diva on Steam gradually and been also wanting to find other rhythm games with a focus on other vocal synths such as UTAU. Project Diva is a beautiful game with absolutely stellar design both gameplay and art style. If you get the steam version, I recommend the Future Tone graphics style over the Mega Mix graphics style (you can change it in the settings) as it greatly compliments the songs better in my opinion but I know some who play Mega Mix with the original graphic style and it doesn't look too bad but the cel shading looks a bit too wonky on some songs.

 No.1823

A recent Adachi Rei tune that just came out 4 days ago and is honestly some of the best I've heard in a while. That cheerful, anthemic lead is really cute and the vocal delivery reminds me of Mass of The Fermenting Dregs. To be fair, this sort of vocal delivery isn't uncommon in some j-rock but it fits so nicely in an non-jrock tune.

>What is your favorite vocalsynth?
I am rather a newb in this world. Probably Hatsune Miku, due to how many classic songs were made with her. Favorite voice belongs to RIME, though.
>Is there any particular song you absolutely love?
Lately I have been on a hunt for some less known songs, this is one of my best finds. Sounds like a frutiger aero Miku… *・゚+。園にて.゚
>Do you play any vocalsynth rhythm games like Project Diva?
It is my go-to rhythm game to play on a Steam Deck.

I will be posting some of my finds recently.
This is a beautifully fully animated pv for a song featuring Rin. I love how her voice is in this one in particular. Very good tuning. The PV is really nice, too. Very cute yuri love story that is a bit depressing but also nice message about moving on after loss. At least that's what I gathered, I sadly don't speak Japanese so don't know the lyrics.

 No.1896

Very cute, comfy song sung by SynthV Teto, whose voice is quickly becoming a favorite because of how expressive and full of life the voice can be. I'm glad producers are using SynthV Teto in songs other than covers too, I was really worried SV Teto would become a cover only voicebank and was gladly proven wrong.

 No.1897

Another really comfy song I found that uses COKO, a CeVIO voicebank. I'm not really sure what the lyrics are but this song is just really well produced and I love the flourishes it has towards the chorus too. The PV is also really nice and creative with the meshing of 2D in real world environments in this spinning camera style. Simple, but very effective.

 No.1898

Another PV taking place in the real world, I really love this style. Uses Kaai Yuki as the voicebank. Found this in the related videos after the last video, seems to be a pretty popular song. I always love these ringtone-sounding songs and the chorus is really catchy.

 No.1899

Finishing tonight's report with a Miku song, the queen of all vocal synths. Has that same whisper vocal feel that "MOUDOKU-CHUUI" by dennoko-p has, as well as some elements that could easily mistake it for a more serious-sounding mochiutsune (no shade thrown, love mochiutsune too). Personally I love it, and it is only complimented more by the stellar production that elevates this track. There should be a name for these sorts of tracks that use the ringtone-like sound. Ringtone-denpacore or something.

Zundamon has such a pretty voice. It's nice to hear a video using her singing, she is really underrated for that in particular.

>>1904
This is beautiful, I like the incorporation of live drums and digital ones, and the melodic serenity of it that feels straight out of a Sintara song from the 60s in the best way possible. Some classic jpop feel while modernizing things.

 No.1927

This track isn't the most amazing thing ever, but it has a really nice ambient pop sound that flirts with minimalism and I like that. Sounds like a good version of whatever Radiohead went with on Videotape at the end of In Rainbows (although I may just be salty because I like the bonnaroo 2006 version of Videotape better)

Wow this is absolutely beautiful stuff. I love this shoegazy indie rock stuff so this is right up my alley. You are a really talented composer and I love your guitar's tone. Excellent, beautiful work that reminds me of the earlier vocaloid days when there was a lot of experimentation with shoegaze and noise pop (which I really miss honestly in the new era). I'd love to follow you and support you work in any way I can because this is really lovely.

>What is your favorite vocalsynth?
I guess by today's standards she's pretty underrated but I really love CUL's original Vocaloid voicebank. She's never had any popular / relevant songs but I still love her design and voice.
>Is there any particular song you absolutely love?
From the old era of Vocaloid I'd say Meltdown is my favorite but from the current era it's Adipocere by Iyowa, really appreciate the guy as a producer myself.

Up drunk, missing my boyfriend whom I love very much, in the middle of a hurricane. Enough for a make song itself, to be honest. But I am too busy being entranced by this hypnotic song and the way the vocal melodies and production mesh so well. Kind of reminds me of the interesting vocal effects that otoMADS would use but as its own thing in a song.

Well this is interesting. This artist apparently only popped up a few months ago and I feel they might be a westerner given the style of the music itself (lots of distortion and the bleeding heart dancy jpop that was stylistic of 2011-2014 era vocaloid) and that they have a few songs listed on their instrumental album with some pretty clear english (not to mention having the -P title without the niconico ranking anywhere in sight looool). Despite that, I feel this is one of the few tracks with distortion/bitcrush that actually does it right, with various different levels of distortion present and padded through the verses (sounds a lot like bitcrush then into flanger then into bitcrush) until this song suddenly transforms into a distortion free and clear chorus that fits in really nicely and sounds triumphantly piercing and cognizant until fading out. I really can't stress how beautiful this is enough, it seems to be both a homage to that relatively experimental vocaloid era that legendary producers like Siinamota and kagerou project popularized as well as a step forward in it's own right. This particular era is what influenced now legendary producers like iyowa. particular The lyrics are simple but harrowingly effective and well thought out. The visuals are out of this world too, tons of different styles and they all work beautiful, especially going from the fluid 3D animation of Miku and various scenery into a full 2D animation for the chorus. Definitely appears we might be having another ime44 situation and I'm all for it, personally. Very good song.

Depends on what you are trying to look for in regards to ex. happyender girl. If you want the more chaotic, jazzy style that is subdued, I highly recommend the producer akasaka~nnn (video I embedded), who sounds like a mixture of ex and iyowa. Lots of really jazzy interludes to build up tensions to eventually release in the most beautiful of ways. Dennoko-P also fits this bill too
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iuYhYwXnI0

Lemm also does this kind of style (on top of this being a very good album I highly recommend)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPa8by4lJUY

monaca:factory has a bit of this essence in them as well
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FIfaCPoktD8

However if you are looking for the more subdued, rock oriented sound with some electronica in the mix I highly suggest Nekobolo, whos kind of the king of this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Tu8BBFLAlQ

Nakanoise also has this beautiful lo-fi shoegaze sound that is really intriguing
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TirvxS8KOoI

Hope this helps, I mostly tried to find artists for you who have a similar style but go about in their own unique way. Vocaloid is a beautiful subculture and has a lot of hidden crevasses that are very interesting to explore. I'm not kidding when I say there's probably a vocaloid album or song for nearly every genre and a lot of them are some of the best works in that genre. The ideal of sushi rollymity while also being able to have a synthetic vocalist is a really appealing idea to tons of Japanese producers, especially ones who can't really outright hire a vocalist or aren't connected so there are a ton of producers and artists who got their start in music there.

 No.1979

>>1978
Also shit I forget to add. Higma is also a great producer in the more indietronica style and makes some amazing songs that are really emblematic of this sort of style in vocaloid. They are also a relatively newer producer too so maybe try them out as well.
