Gigi Murin- 'Hitomania' Song & Vocal Analysis

With covers like this it would be cool for you to at least take a quick peek at the original song, sometimes hololive covers completely remake the instrumental. In this one it's the same though, but however the comparison with vocaloid would be fun

You should definitely react to Gigi's original song "I'll Still Be Here"! I won't spoil it for you, but definitely read the first line in the description after watching! She also has a community post talking about the song

If you like experimental song you should really check out more vocaloid songs then, this song is originally a vocaloid song too, and it's quite popular in the vocaloid community ( the original has like 60M+ views). Since Vocaloid is pretty much a perfect technology for indie, so the music there has 0 'industry filter' and can be very very weird

Hey don't apologize! Honestly it's more fun the more excited you are to look into these things. Production on this one is wild. Totally agree it was worth diving deeper into it. Thank you for this!

Vtuber awards actually didn’t happen last year. It was honestly because of politics and I’m not making that up. The software that they ran it on was from Ukraine and they got mad because Filian. The vtuber that hosted it was friends with some Russian vtubers or part Russian vtubers and she wouldn’t not include Russian vtubers in the award show, so they pulled out and it was too late to use a different vtuber software. It also cost a ton of money to do too.

So happy you are into this one! Gigi is such a uniquely charismatic, chaotic, and thoughtful person, I'm so fascinated by her. She's very funny and whimsical, but she takes life very seriously too. I absolutely cannot wait for you to listen to her first (and only, so far) original song I'll Still Be Here, because it is an intense pivot both emotionally and musically. Be careful, it will break your heart. I can't listen to it without crying. I love Gigi, hopefully you get a chance to dive into more of her chaos soon!

Gigi has gotten a lot better singing in her year and a half or so at Hololive. You can really tell when you go back and watch the first songs they did as a group and how they tuned her and how she sang in karaoke streams. Now with the most recent Justice cover, she actually sang good in it. I imagine they have some crazy good vocal coaches at cover for the girls

the more I hear about your musical taste the more I think you will love the experimentation done in the vocaloid scene. You need to make time for the livestream soon.

The producer is very special and he is even crazy compared to other vocaloid artists. Sasuke Haraguch is like a true anomaly in the scene — and not only because of his experimental music. Long before he ever produced a Vocaloid track, he was already doing really cool and weird stuff. At 6 he starts composing some of his first songs. At age 10, he won first place in an amateur dance competition in New York. By 14, he goes viral for a street performance in Tokyo. At 17, he performed at the closing ceremony of the 2020 Paralympics. And by 18, he get signed by a label. Then came his vocaloid producer debut with Hitomania when Sasuke was 21. He is just absolutely insane Honestly I would say Hitomania is not even that experimental compared to some of his other tracks, if you want a song of him to blow your mind if would recommend listening to this in your free time, it's his latest song and I can't even begin how to describe it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYbCZvawN3Y
