To celebrate the first anniversary of the release of his mixtape “Romance & Rebellion,” LÂLKA, a pioneer of electronic music, has released a new version of the title track “Romance & Rebellion (with Hatsune Miku),” in collaboration with Japan’s virtual pop star Hatsune Miku. LÂLKA’s experimental soundscape and Hatsune Miku’s unique vocals come together to take you on a new virtual trip that no one has ever experienced before.
Raluca is a Malaysian-born, Australian-raised experimental pop artist, multi-instrumentalist, singer, songwriter and producer, with an interest in digital avatars and the use of XR (cross reality) technology, which blends the real and virtual worlds.
Many fans had hoped that a collaboration with Hatsune Miku would one day come true, and this day had been eagerly awaited.

Regarding the collaboration, L’Arca said:
“I’m incredibly excited to embark on a coherent and immersive journey with Hatsune Miku to create a special edition of the title track to celebrate the first anniversary of my album’s release, and to create a one-of-a-kind aural experience.”
Romance & Rebellion is a vibrant, futuristic mixtape written, produced, mixed, sung and performed by Raluca himself, and mastered by Becki Whitton (A.K.A. Aphir). It is the result of Raluca finding solace in the digital space during a difficult time.
Laluka became fascinated with the possibilities of Vocaloid and tools like it after suffering from a chronic illness and experiencing major rifts in her relationships.
“It has endless potential to not only democratize musical and visual creation, but also create immersive musical experiences that blur the line between the virtual and real worlds.”
The new version, “Romance & Rebellion (with Hatsune Miku),” commemorating the first anniversary of the album, reflects this nostalgia while being optimistic, otherworldly, brutal, driving and euphoric – a perfect style for underground raves, otaku nightclubs and industrial warehouse parties, delivering the ultimate feeling of empowerment to the listener.
Following the collaboration song with Hatsune Miku “Romance & Rebellion (with Hatsune Miku),” a sped-up version of the song, “Romance & Rebellion w/ Hatsune Miku (Nightcore Remix),” will be released on June 7. It’s sure to excite otaku fans around the world.
