When I introduce people to Vocaloid I usually start with electro music. I explain that I love the synth/electro sound, and so the concept of "synthesized music with synthesized voice" is easy for people to swallow. Usually start with Mwk, since his style is pretty similar to a few western electro artists I listen to. I like to play Crystalline and bits of the Entrance Dream Music albums for similar reasons. Circus' 715 album tends to go over well. If the person doesn't like electronic music, keeno's usually not a hard sell, since it's very easy listening. That Wintermute album too, really. Can branch out into well-tuned stuff from other genres depending on what they're into.

In my opinion, the vast majority of the popular Vocaloid scene music is not at all normie friendly. Non-weebs just do not want to listen to kz, Pinnochio, etc. (though a few wowaka songs may pass). Squeaky uguu pop music is fine for us since that's our jam, but it's not the average person's cup of tea. You just gotta know your audience.
