Weekly Vocaloid Ranking # 190 (May 16-23, 2011)

Apologies for being so damn late.

Due to work issues, I haven't been able to do the Vocaran for this week. However, [personal profile] stephieku has kindly typed up the Vocaran writeup for the comm. The only thing lacking are the comments, since we both don't have the time right now to listen and comment properly on each song. But! Stephie has included everything else in the ranking. A big thanks to her!


↑# - the song moved up from a previous top 30 rank
↓# - song moved down from a previous top 30 rank
- song is a re-entry to the top 30 rankings

Weekly Vocaran #178 (02/21-02/28, 2011)

Weekly Vocaloid Ranking #178 (February 21 - 28, 2011)

Today's week has a lot of movements, few songs have decided to do a comeback and take one rank up at a time, while a lot more had decided it's time for them to zoom down. Which leaves us with new songs in the upper rankings, all of them worth checking out! I apologize for the lack of good descriptions, as I'm running out of time ^^;.

Vocaloid Midyear Special Ranking 2010 2nd Part (Hatsune Miku compilation)

As you might remember, I posted the midyear special ranking sometime in July, where the songs included were those uploaded from December 2009 to June 2010. This is the LATTER PART of that ranking, where the top songs from June 15 to December 14, 2010 are uploaded.

The video has 80 songs, but the mylist has 200 songs O_O;. A-anyway, I've included them all in the list. As with the previous mid-year ranking and all the other rankings which aren't weekly, this is written in reverse for more suspense :D.

Since all of them are Miku songs, I'll just type the song, composer and additional Vocaloids used if there are any :).

The last few are so predictable XD;. Anyway, I'll be doing the rest of the rankings, too (how many more to go? D: ) so please wait for them! /o/

...The tags...I...will do them later orz.

Even More Singing Producers?

The last one for this year, this is our third list of songs Vocaloid producers sang. They can be self-covers, covers of other songs or original songs altogether. You might be familiar with some of them as they appeared in the utattemita ranking.

Weekly Vocaran 168 (12/13-12/30, 2010)

Weekly Vocaloid Ranking #168 (December 13-20, 2010)

Not many new things today, which is a bit disapppointing since the old songs just ended up getting juggled from one rank to another. There are quite a few well-known P's who uploaded this week, anyway, so the ranking is worth a look!

↑# - the song moved up from a previous top 30 rank
↓# - song moved down from a previous top 30 rank
- song is a re-entry to the top 30 rankings

Weekly Vocaloid Ranking #162 (November 5-11, 2010)

This week is a bit uneventful due to the lack of new song influx, although the new songs are wonderful! Also, November 5 was Meiko's birthday! Sadly, only a few of her songs made it to the rankings, but they are really nice. Please do check them out.

Producer Spotlight : Yukkedoluce

Yukkedoluce (黒髪さらさらロングP)

mylist | blog

Yukkedoluce (or yukke) is a newbie to the Vocaloid community, having uploaded his first song only this April. His style is still quite shaky but most of his songs border on alternative to rock, usually fast paced with unpredictable phrasing. He likes using a lot of guitars and drums, and is currently learning how to use the most of DTM. He also draws the art for all of his songs.

Yukke uses Miku as his only Vocaloid and is still learning on how to tune her to perfection. Most of the time, he tunes Miku a little too high, making his songs hard to cover (check Akari to Kagi). Recently, though, he's started toning Miku a little lower.

Aside from composing Vocaloid songs, Yukke has taken a liking to covering songs under another name "Dolucey".

nikki says

I first encountered yukkedoluce in his first work which was amazingly covered by Asamaru. After translating the song, I instantly fell in love with it and decided to follow this person's works. I admit that at first I thought he was a girl and had these kawaii-kawaii talk with him before I listened to his namahousou and realized he's a 21-22 year-old guy ;_;. Nevertheless, outside his music, yukke tends to be a very random person but interesting nonetheless. You can find my translations of all of his songs here. :)

Also, he prefers to be called yukke, as doluce is, if I remember correctly, the name of his dog. If you go to his site and click Ayane (the girl), you'll end up seeing a page where he considers you a hentai because you clicked on Ayane ^^;

Vocaloid Midyear Special Ranking 2010 (Hatsune Miku compilation)

This is my first time actually waiting for and transcribing the midyear Vocaloid Ranking, so I'm a bit excited despite the work before me XD.

This ranking considered Hatsune Miku songs uploaded from 12AM of December 15, 2009 up 11:59PM of June 14, 2010. The formula of computing for the ranks is not included in the blurb, but I think it's almost the same as the weekly Vocaloid ranking formula. The video included the top 80 songs, but the mylist link has 478 songs OTL. There's no way I CAN type up all of them so I'll just include here the top 100. There's still the Kagamine, KAITO, Luka and GUMI rankings, so please look forward to them :). Please take this as an opportunity to listen to Hatsune Miku songs considered as the best this half of 2010 :).

So far, this and the annual rankings are the only ones I type in reverse order (from 100-1) so that it'd be more exciting :). If you want me to do the midyear/annual rankings in the traditional way (the 1-xx order), just tell me :).

I have a feeling that I don't want to tag this....

A few announcements so as not to waste post count :).

• I forgot to do the monthly ranking...again. Sorry. I'll do it tomorrow.
• I might not be able to do spotlights again this week. (Work deadline is on Friday, but you don't want to know the details) Next week! I'll try my best!

• I updated the tracklist of PointFive's enhAnce CD here :).
Hiwaily*2, that host club CD like Smiley*2 has formally introduced their cast as Amu, Miichan, So~ma, Jigiru, Riseha and [REN]. Note that they also have Kantou and Tokyo branches. Riseha is a girl, but she sounds so adorable here ;_;.
Kogeinu has announced in his new(?) blog the release of two CDs collectively called Uttemoratta. The first CD, which is themed "popular singers collection" has Clear, Dasoku, Pokota, ASK and Kettaro. The second CD, themed "no gender distinction" has Kogeinu, Hitori, che:Sakurai and vip-tenchou. XD This is going to be interesting. Please get your wallets ready by July!
