A song about musicians breaking from what gave them recognition to do what they love. In Kenshi’s case, it was with his initial rise with Vocaloids to his own vocal work and style. ...glad you’re doing more stuff other than Monster Hunter metal covers.

oh,finally. i was waiting for somebody to post on this. i was waiting for this to start exploding. at least some people are still here (EDIT)I JUST NOTICED *FALKKONE,YOU REACHED 56K MY MAN! CONGRATS!*
For all dying fandoms, they walk through the sand planet. Some are vigilant as the Pilots, relentlessly Stimming, Grappling, and Titanfalling through the desert. They will always seek to challenge themselves against each other, as they await the Legends that lie beyond to turn around, and walk with them. They don't entirely care, but the world they walk on may see life again. Not the life they used to see, but it is something, and they couldn't have asked for more. Some are doomed, like the Wii Us. Their Miis, hopelessly disconnected, grew slow and die quickly. They clench onto their scratched machines and their massive tablets, as they desperately seek to unlock the rest of the secrets before carrying them to their graves. Then... There's Miku. The ten years she's endured has made her a temporal anomaly. Those who leave her see her as a mature singer, ready to accept the orders they would have given her, if they stayed, while those who join see her as a nigh-angelic figure, capable of summoning music from her voice on a whim. Miku envies the ones who are caught in the illusion, but she is certain that they will come to face and accept the reality. She teeters on edge of either destiny with the ones who follow her, either the redeemed and recharged, or the doomed and dying. For now, she understand that she is both, and neither at the same time. For now, her life is the same, but the ones who follow, for their own reasons, are not.
H4CKZ0N To be fair, the song is relatively new, seems to have exploded in the Vocaloid community (from my PoV), and this is like the first Vocaloid song Hachi has produced in a long time since he began singing things himself. But maybe the phenomenon previously mentioned and RUclips's algorithm is to blame. Who knows?
Hachi has always been one of my favorite Vocaloid composers and I feel nostalgic when I listen to his old stuff. His newer non-Vocaloid stuff is also good in its own way and his distinctive style is still there, but it lacks the magic of his old compositions (probably the aforementioned nostalgia). You and the singer (who brings a lot that would have been missed if this was strictly instrumental) truly make justice to the song with your on twist and I even prefer it to the original.
thx dude, that song mean a lot to an old fan of vocaloid like me, so you doing a cover of it is a real treat for the ears sry for bad english, 3 AM and shit u know?
Decided to give the original a shot after listening to this. While I'm not much of a Vocaloids guy, that felt really, really neet... And then I went back to you guys' work to find out it's absolutely stunning and is an amazing cover indeed. Here's plus one sub for you.
Once again the randomness give us a music we didn't know of. Thank you FalKKonE sama for your incredible work, for finding this your realy something. I love it.
Miku's followers pretty obviously represent Vocaloid producers, so let's get that out of the way. Miku is shown in two distinct ways, which likely represents the difference between how producers and fans perceive her. The producers follow her through the desert hoping to find success, while the fans have an ideal of her as a representation of Vocaloid's potential. The "producers' Miku" looks more mature, as they work with her closely, may have a long history with her, and better understand what it means that it's Miku's 10th birthday - thus she looks like she's aged 10 years from her initial design. You could sorta view their Miku as "the program/voicebank" and the fan Miku as "the character design," especially in how their Miku shows very little emotion. The "fan Miku" is standing by an apple tree in a wintery desert in contrast to the sandy desert. This is a less harsh-looking environment because fans don't see the full difficulty of being a producer, and the apple tree represents the bounty of songs produced by Vocaloid. The producers plant the apple tree(s), but to the uninformed eye, it seems like something that just produces fruit naturally. Similarly, "fan Miku" is shown doing techno-magic stuff to make music, which belies the reality of producers making music. The "sand planet" depicts the Vocaloid scene in two senses: a "sand pit" and a "harsh desert." It's a sandbox where producers played and built a "castle," but also, things are difficult there. Hachi has remarked that he had an image of NicoNico "turning into a desert" since his era, which I take to mean not that it's barren of good songs, but that the landscape has become harsher for producers. It likens surges of popularity like Melt's to wells that dry up over time, so the producers must look elsewhere for the next thing that will be big in Vocaloid and draw in new people. (The "laser beam pointing to the distance" may represent chasing trends.) "Lead us to the castle in the sky" also ties into this, representing a producer's hope to achieve that stand-out success in Vocaloid, easing the harshness they endure down below, and giving them the opportunity to move on from Vocaloid to something bigger. The lightning/thunder could be metaphorical for the electronic nature of everything - lightning flashes are also used to switch scenes numerous times. The producers that separate from the group at the end likely represent those like Kenshi himself who left Vocaloid. (Or, while I really doubt it myself, they could refer to Powapowa-P and Samfree, who passed away.) The person with the flower at the end may represent a Vocaloid fan: they first swing around Miku, then a producer, representing how using Miku was originally what got you attention, but the actual producers have since come to the forefront. (Or at the very least, most earnest Vocaloid fans will eventually make that change in focus.) The last line of "even as the wind blows" could metaphorically mean that Vocaloid carries on despite the winds of change. It's not super clear, but Miku seems to be walking toward two new producers waving at her at the end, showing how even those who move on from Vocaloid have new talent taking their place. The cake castle shown from above at the end represents Miku's ten-year legacy as built by the producers who use her; when they celebrate her birthday, they're celebrating the Vocaloid history they've made. Of course, when it's shown in the "fans' perspective," this cake just looks like a cake.
now that i think about it,this talks about a barren desert or something. no wonder part of me likes this even though i have no idea what this is. maybe its just because it's an *INTENSE SYMPHONIC METAL COVER.* btw I FORGOT TO SAY *NOTIFICATION SQUAD.* just thought i'd add that before i forget
Leonid Power the cheap violins don't really make the best of sounds when slapped, and it's not worth risking slap damage with the expensive ones, so I'd have to vote 'nay'.
Not gonna lie, I also just heard the original version just a few days ago... And you turned a wonderful song into a wonderfully epic song! Now I wonder... How would a symphonic metal version of Hold, Release and Demons sound?
I never understood why there were walking and doing some other things and... suddenly...I understood... They’re searching for FalKKonE´s music, lost in the database of the past in the ruins of a collapsing world. I don’t have any other explainations, and you know that it’s the first thing you should and will do if there is a sudden apocalyptic disaster that turns the planet into sand.
Woah, this sounds so cool. I don't know if I like this version or the original better because they're both so amazing. Are you going to put this on Google Play at some point - I'd love to buy it to listen to it offline too :) :)

That one dislike is Anakin Skywalker.
Title: Sand Planet
Anakin: "I don't like sand. It's coarse, rough and irritating and gets everywhere."
Whoops, wrong fandom
lmao
We have 6 Anakins by now.
Too many-kin
It's over though. The weebs have the high ground.
It's ok. I have (kind of) been to a wrong fandom too! :'D
More like (nu)Metal Planet.
AGAIN,no idea what this is somebody explain before i feel out of place
You do realize there are video descriptions? And links inside them? ;p
nope. im a blind idiot who doesnt bother to check music video descriptions. turns out digging can mess with your eyes after a while too.
Tasty music, tasty cover
oh,finally. i was waiting for somebody to post on this. i was waiting for this to start exploding. at least some people are still here
(EDIT)I JUST NOTICED *FALKKONE,YOU REACHED 56K MY MAN! CONGRATS!*
For all dying fandoms, they walk through the sand planet.
Some are vigilant as the Pilots, relentlessly Stimming, Grappling, and Titanfalling through the desert. They will always seek to challenge themselves against each other, as they await the Legends that lie beyond to turn around, and walk with them. They don't entirely care, but the world they walk on may see life again. Not the life they used to see, but it is something, and they couldn't have asked for more.
Some are doomed, like the Wii Us. Their Miis, hopelessly disconnected, grew slow and die quickly. They clench onto their scratched machines and their massive tablets, as they desperately seek to unlock the rest of the secrets before carrying them to their graves.

For now, her life is the same, but the ones who follow, for their own reasons, are not.
Wow a Titanfall reference. It's nice to wallrun through the desert with a fellow Pilot.
Wowwee.
That was kinda unexpected but I appreciate it. I'd love to see more Miku stuff in the future
I didn't expect it myself
Love how you colored the audio spectrum in a way that reminds the sand dust in the original video.
^^
what the hell? i saw the original for the first time just a few hours ago and now you cover it... whats the chance of that happening lmao
same
How funny, I saw the original for the first time just a few hours before I covered it too!
H4CKZ0N it's Baader-Meinhof phenomenon (when you find something and then notice around a lot of similar and related things)
H4CKZ0N To be fair, the song is relatively new, seems to have exploded in the Vocaloid community (from my PoV), and this is like the first Vocaloid song Hachi has produced in a long time since he began singing things himself.
But maybe the phenomenon previously mentioned and RUclips's algorithm is to blame. Who knows?
Same, although I’d say I’m several months.
Hachi has always been one of my favorite Vocaloid composers and I feel nostalgic when I listen to his old stuff. His newer non-Vocaloid stuff is also good in its own way and his distinctive style is still there, but it lacks the magic of his old compositions (probably the aforementioned nostalgia).
You and the singer (who brings a lot that would have been missed if this was strictly instrumental) truly make justice to the song with your on twist and I even prefer it to the original.
Proof that weebs can be badass.
No
Your name, it comes from higurashi?
Rena - Sou ka. err, just because someone likes anything like this doesn't mean they're a weeb? :l
h ow dare you call falk a weeB
Not really, when I chose my name I haven't seen a single episode of higurashi
*stalks Rena*
*Rena used her voice*
*it's super effective!*
*You Fainted*
thx dude, that song mean a lot to an old fan of vocaloid like me, so you doing a cover of it is a real treat for the ears
sry for bad english, 3 AM and shit u know?
The last thing I would expect to see here, amazing!
Haha, thanks!
Alright people, lets spread the news about FalKKonE's epic existence throughout the internet, he needs more subs ;D
:>
This tooke me by surprise. I'd love to see more Vocaloid covers!
Just found this song for the first time this month and I love it, seeing that you made a symphonic version makes me so happy.
Decided to give the original a shot after listening to this. While I'm not much of a Vocaloids guy, that felt really, really neet... And then I went back to you guys' work to find out it's absolutely stunning and is an amazing cover indeed. Here's plus one sub for you.
カッケェエエエエエエエ!
I LOVE IT!!! Just like always, the tracks and the metal make a great combo!!
Hehe, metal goes with everything ;)
If done correctly :>
This is the best
Thanks :)
Once again the randomness give us a music we didn't know of. Thank you FalKKonE sama for your incredible work, for finding this your realy something.
I love it.
Amazing cover, and Rena's singing is perfect!
nice, now i got two versions of this i can blast repeatedly!
Her voice is really amazing!!!
Thank you very muuuch ❤️❤️❤️❤️
just now noticing the acoustic guitar in the beginning before the metal kicks in
Next time you make a Vocaloid metal cover, please do a Senbonzakura cover!
Proof that I don't have to know where something comes from to fucking love it.
^^
This is like the 3rd remix/cover I've found with out looking of this song :33
Everybody is must be loving it than.
your metal covers ROCKS!! It give me a strong feeling from inside.
Wonder what's this song about
Anyway, another unexpected amazing cover by Falk. Impressive as always :D
Basically how the vocaloid community is dying and stuff
So that's why... There's so many references to other songs in there. I was so surprised as each of them popped up.

Yass
Btw i aint a musician but i think if u slap some violin it will sound even better what do u think ?:0
Leonid Power the cheap violins don't really make the best of sounds when slapped, and it's not worth risking slap damage with the expensive ones, so I'd have to vote 'nay'.
Darwen G'wein lul thnx do0d u slaped me with some knowledge
Not gonna lie, I also just heard the original version just a few days ago... And you turned a wonderful song into a wonderfully epic song! Now I wonder... How would a symphonic metal version of Hold, Release and Demons sound?
Miku and Metal works together?
Wow. Just wow.
SURPRISE IT'S NOT MIKU IT'S RENA SINGING
VOCALOID YYYEEEEES
YES
Damn this makes Miku seem even stronger than before, like if she was in Doom or heck I'd even say, Metal Gear Rising Revevengeance
Amazing cover °^°
Thanks!
Falkone is awesome
I was just like woaaaaah it s amazing like always!!! *_*
Thank you ^^
Ayyyy that's my wallpaper lol
I never understood why there were walking and doing some other things and... suddenly...I understood...
They’re searching for FalKKonE´s music, lost in the database of the past in the ruins of a collapsing world. I don’t have any other explainations, and you know that it’s the first thing you should and will do if there is a sudden apocalyptic disaster that turns the planet into sand.
How much singers do you know FaKKonE? lol at this point you could make an intense music squad X'D
Quite a bunch, also gradually getting to know even more :)
This can only be a good thing for us,your covers are even more amazing when paired with great singers ;)
わぁお
(wow)
Hell yes.
Woah, this sounds so cool. I don't know if I like this version or the original better because they're both so amazing. Are you going to put this on Google Play at some point - I'd love to buy it to listen to it offline too :) :)
Thanks :) Why should one be better than the other, though ;)
Yes, it will appear in stores in about a month!
Proof that Metal can make everything better, even Miku.
さすがFalKKonEさん

So now Vocaloids? :D
It is, and always was "cool music", nothing else ;)
Je suis sûr de l'avoir déjà vu 🤔
+1 point francocphonie
Oh Rena **

Shook
...I feel like Hachi let me down now.
何を言っているんだ
Try a cover of Matryoshka
What if matryoshka took cover in her larger form, though?
After listening top the original I have to say I like this cover better
Thanks, son!
But the original had its cool vibe in the first place ;)
Learn to take a compliment old man D:
never!
Well I can't accept them either...
Hey falkkone are you from poland ? cuz Michał is polish name
Tak, przecież w moim channel info mam napisane, że jestem z Polski ;)
Aaaa no tak
A mieszkasz i robisz remixy w polsce czy za granicom ?
Też jest tam napisane - jestem z Wrocławia :)
To spoko (nie umiem czytać XD)
