Kikuo, a popular composer of vocaloid songs, is teaming up with singer Hanatan to release their debut collaboration album Dai-ichi Maku under the moniker Kikuohana. The album’s concept of “broken fairytales” features 12 original songs written and produced by Kikuo. Hanatan also goes by the name of “YURiCa” and is a sensation among enthusiasts of the internet phenomenon of “vocaloid cover singers”–amateur singers who cover songs originally “sung” by vocaloids. The popularity of some singers has propelled them to major label careers. VALSHE is a notable example.
