Will Hatsunr Miku and Vocaloid in general ever comeback to mainstream again, or will it wither and die?

>> No.44560777

As long as there is an appreciable skill in personally tuning vocoders compared to human vocalists or AI vocalists, the concept of Vocaloid will carry on in some form.
The particular trademark and characters are inherently secondary to that, however, and it shows in how much of Vocaloid's character is a reflection of those who used that vocoding in a song.

My guess is that it's because nobody knows about it in the west unlike before. And faggots only care about the ones with millions of views (even now there are enough of those, like anything by deco or pinochio), vocaloid has always been about the small producers either way.

Anons can never find a reason for this because they'll end up grasping desperately to find a metric, without realizing that trying to grab those metrics and use it to define Vocaloid are what causes them to become retarded. If OP was dedicated enough to his craft of retardation, he'd start screaming about the Minecraft Miku memes.

This entire discussion started because you or someone else in >>44592998 criticized others for listening to whatever they like instead of Deco*27. I just made fun of the guy who called others' music slop while listening to most sloppy vocaloid music out there.
I do not care what others like, I like Deco*27 too(not as much his modern stuff but some are fine) and also wide range of other popular and obscure producers. Reread this conversation because you seem to lose track of what you are even talking about.

Most modern vocaloid (jpop) songs are bad because the genre has moved away from melodic tunes towards more minimal and electronic builds. And this is a bad thing.

Just to name a few. Of course whenever you will like them heavily depends on your personal preferences, as Vocaloid music is more diverse than ever. That's why it's important to just look out for new producers yourself. If you do not do so and the producers you've listened to 10 years ago slowly retire it's very easy to get wrong impression that there is no more good music being made.

You're right, people seem to forget that famous producers became so because they made songs that were either really good, really funny, or really unique... usually around if not over a decade ago. They've only got so much in the bank so to speak, so anons screaming about how they're all turning to shit now/recently is retarded to me. GigaP might be creatively bankrupt, but the dude also had a pretty good run of [insert number of years that (you) agree with]. He did his work and now there's plenty of other producers and voicebanks to pick up the slack. Anon's just don't want to look because, and I say this with only the most bitter of spite:

They're normalfags. 100% the same as people complaining about the yearly Call of Duty being dooty.

I'm serious. Not a damn thing in this world is more normalfag than going "I will only engage with this piece of media because it's the one I know, and when they suck I won't search for other options and instead complain because I'm mindless and have forgotten how I found out about said media in the first place". It's disgusting.

I wouldn't call them normalfag, just confused and wrong. I was the same ~5 years ago. I had more difficult period in life and didn't really had much energy to look for new music. The idea of browsing through new stuff that probably won't live up to what I already know just to find that one or two gems was overbearing to me. I was disappointed with the old producers not making as much new stuff and not being as fresh as they used to be, and projected that onto whole scene as I knew no better.
But then I slowly started to give a listen to random new songs from new producers that get posted on vocaloid general and on main Miku channel, and then in recommendations and I realized there is still plenty of good music being made. I still love old songs, but few newer ones joined my top favs as well and I'm glad I spent some time to broaden my horizons.

Most of them just sounds samey of some kind jpop or rock and uninspiring. The tuning is worst of it, the voice has that weird high pitch drag that is unnatural and unpleasant to hear. Not like i like all vocaloid from back then either and those kind of songs also exist back then that's gravitated to few producers of my liking and occasionally some nice songs by others like this.

And you must suffer from heavy confirmation bias if you believe this. You complain about songs being jpop while posting Redial, which is as jpop as it gets.
Hell, even the first producer on my list, r-906 is neither jpop nor rock. If anything, he is the most "inspiring" on the list.
The second, Mellowcle, one has one of the most smooth and characteristic tuning you can find.
Your response was very vague anyway and basically boils down to "I just don't like it". I'm pretty confident you didn't even bothered to actually check them out.
