Mind-blowing banger metal rock!

Be blown away by the powerful, aggressive sound.

Addictive alternative pop with rhymes perfectly matched with accented rhythms.
This is a song that will captivate you with Yusue Iri’s mysterious, floating worldview and sound creation.
[Creator comment]
When I relaxed and proceeded with the production freely, it turned out to be a mysterious song.
The lyrics are also more influenced by literature than usual.
I think it’s an interesting piece, so please give it a listen.
■ Streaming album: “FU-ANXIETY”
■ Creator: Carlos Hakamada Saize P / Vocals: Hatsune Miku, Otomachi Una

Before you get worn down by the uncertain and difficult days, recharge your batteries with energy to blow away the blues!
Rock and roll is a part of life.
The cute and lively shouts will lift your spirits.
[Creator comment]
Rock’n’Roll (Hello). I’m Carlos Hakamada.
I wrote a song for when you feel unsteady.
I think everyone feels anxious to some degree, so I think if you can remember this at times like that, you might feel a little better.
Please take care of your health. Take care of your mind and body!
Every Wednesday, we will be announcing information about new songs that have been released on “KARENT.” Please look forward to next week!

▼What is “KARENT”? https://karent.jp/
Crypton Future Media, Inc. developed Hatsune Miku on August 31, 2007 as singing synthesis software that allows users to make her sing by inputting lyrics and a melody. It became a huge movement when many creators posted music they made with Hatsune Miku on the Internet, and now she is active in many fields as a “virtual singer.”
The Hatsune Miku world tour series “MIKU EXPO”, which has been running since 2014, has performed a total of 100 shows in 39 cities around the world. In 2024, which marks the 10th anniversary of the tour’s start, the tour will complete 17 cities in North America as part of the 10th anniversary project. In addition, in the fall of 2024, the third European tour of the series and the first New Zealand and Australian tour are scheduled to be held. In addition, in July 2024, the real live tour “MIKU WITH YOU (Mirai You Ni) 2024” will be held in China for the first time since November 2019, touring three cities: Shanghai, Beijing, and Guangzhou.
In Japan, the event “Hatsune Miku Magical Future,” which combines a live performance by Hatsune Miku and friends with a special exhibition where visitors can experience the joy of creating, has attracted a total of 420,000 people over the 11 years since 2013. In 2024, it will be held in three cities, adding Fukuoka for the first time to Osaka and Tokyo.
She has also collaborated with other famous artists, appearing as the prima donna in Isao Tomita’s “Symphony of Ihatov” and “Doctor Coppelius,” and opening for Lady Gaga on her 2014 North American tour. In addition, she will appear at Coachella, one of the largest music festivals in the United States, in 2024. Various related events are being held both in Japan and overseas.
* “Kagamine Rin,” “Kagamine Len,” “Megurine Luka,” “MEIKO,” and “KAITO” are also virtual singers developed by Crypton Future Media, Inc.
