Do you like singing robots? We will be celebrating 10 years of UTAU singing synthesizer in our #UTAUofthedecade retrospective at Anime Los Angeles 16 on January, 10, 2020 6PM-7PM Live Programming Room 1 (LP1 – Room 200AB) on the 2nd floor of the Ontario Convention Center.

UTAU is a Japanese singing synthesizer application created by Ameya/Ayame. This program is similar to the VOCALOID software, with the difference being it is shareware and anyone can create their own UTAUloid.

Our panelists will pitch songs from each year since UTAU’s release, tell you interesting factoids, viewership statistics, and emphatic pleas about why you should choose their song. Based on these pitches we will call for an audience vote and based on your feedback we will experience that music video together. Rinse and repeat every year until 2019.

Participating will be a number of Engloids.Info & UtaForum staff. To all those attending, see you at ALA!

Can’t attend? Do you still want to contribute? Add your favorite UTAU songs of the decade to our Research Spreadsheet and maybe one of our panelists will choose to pitch your song to our audience for our decade recap!

Views should probably not be the only metric. Cultural reasons, technical skill, language execution, global recognition, community influence, or just the fact something is a really good song, are all valid metrics for inclusion. In the end, the audience will decide what we listen to!
