Here's yet another blog post about my life, but today I'm going to really discuss one thing that I listened to while looking for music: VOCALOID.
From Wikipedia ~ "Vocaloid is a singing synthesizer application developed by the Yamaha Corporation that enables users to synthesize singing by typing in lyrics and melody. It utilizes Yamaha's Vocaloid synthesizing technology with specially recorded vocals of voice actors or singers. To create a song, the user must input the melody and lyrics. A piano roll type interface is used to input the melody and the lyrics can be entered on each note. The software can change the stress of the pronunciations, add effects such as vibrato, or change the dynamics and tone of the voice. Each Vocaloid is sold as "a singer in a box". The software is available in English and Japanese."
A few years back, I was introduced to it after looking at videos that were really really popular on YouTube. I was also getting into the Anime fad, so seeing a VOCALOID like Hatsune Miku or KAITO really made me happy and smile a lot. That's also when I paid more attention to Miku. After awhile, I got out of the fad after realizing that most of the songs sounded too... Robotic.
I got back into after looking at VOCALOID songs being sung by Nico Nico Douga users. Today, I would like to show some videos of VOCALOID songs that I liked a lot over the years. There's only going to be like four.. so don't worry.
"Rolling Girl (ローリンガール)" by Hatsune Miku
"It's My Road Roller! (俺のロードローラーだッ)" by Rin & Len Kagamine
"Another: World Is Mine" by KAITO
"SPICE!" by Len Kagamine
I really don't know why I like SPICE!. I guess it's because the beat is catchy, hahaha. Though, if I had to choose my favorite VOCALOID, it would have to be one of the classics: KAITO. Not because he's hot or anything, just the fact that I like his voice.
Well, I guess that's all from me!
