Abnormal Vtuber music?



When Marine's "Unison" came out, I was pretty damn surprised and pleased. It was very unlike the traditional vtuber music, which is like traditional anime music, which is an offshoot of traditional Japanese pop music, which has less variation than a band only playing blues standards. It sounded like something from Aphex Twin or Squarepusher - and I wasn't the only one who thought so, as I immediately saw someone in the video's comments also compare it to them.

Most vtuber music I hear still falls under this "Vtuber Music" genre, and is just not interesting to me. Are there any other out-of-the-ordinary originals out there? I'll accept covers so long as they're not the usual pop or emo stuff.

Marine's pretty creative in general, I was just listening to SHINKIRO again earlier which is an all-out homage to '80s Japanese city-pop that lands perfectly.



I've also taken a big liking to the FAKE TYPE. collaborations - there's a wild energy to their arrangements that admittedly probably is an acquired taste, but when it hits, it hits. What An Amazing Swing should've won best original in the TVA awards.

Spoiler: Other FAKE TYPE. recommendations

Does "Wonky Monkey" count as out-of-the-ordinary?


There's also this, but it's a cover:


Also Haachama (also a cover):

Abnormal Vtuber music?

Aki's Shallys song comes to mind, iirc she made up her own elven language.

There are quite some variety outside NijiHolo.
774inc's Ryugasaki Rene is more JP R&B and rap. Some crossfade from her first album.


Mao Minmo has an original Eurobeat song.


Kamitsubaki's Isekaijoucho feels like a living Vocaloid. Here's her most popular song and my favourite.


RK Music has NEUN.


And for something completely different, Alaki Paca. Do you remember Korone's first loading song? Same person who sang this.
