It has come to my attention that some of these links are don't really work anymore, welp, oh well. Sometimes it's just like that.)

Here’s a good video on Interface by Remy (who presents the topic more clearly than I ever could)

Folks who post partially lost clips from time to time.

You can't use the Wayback machine to log into an old Nico Nico account and view the video. It doesn't work like that.

it's really sad knowing that there's millions of lost vocaloid songs out there that a lot of people don't even know. i know a lot of lost songs that i'll probably never listen to again, and my mentor has a lot of lost vocaloid music on her phone from as early as 2009
sakura no ame by halyosy is an interesting but sad song that would be played whenever a niconico upload was deleted and i think it's still pretty fitting considering it's theme of graduation and inevitable parting ways, and knowing niconico was the original hub for vocaloid content, it's just a somber feeling

What really makes my heart ache is looking through my youtube playlists and see "7 videos have been deleted from this playlist". I just know it's stuff that wasn't really well known, so there is a chance that it was something that now turned into lost media. I wish youtube would at least tell me the title of the video.

Saw this in my recommended and as a vocaloid and lost media lover this is perfect! thank you <3

I used to have an app on my iPod touch that was Aoki Lapis singing you to sleep basically. I remember that she would count sheep, and you could set an alarm, , but the alarm only worked while the app was open lmao.

Actually there’s been a lot of Masa’s older songs dug up even in the past year a version of crystal diva with the MV was found, There’s quite the team looking to find this stuff. Masa has a tendency to just purge songs he’s embarrassed about. Even recently a handful were deleted but luckily archived including his bad apple and senbonzakura remake, the remake of bunker buster and police no.13.

I actually remember wanting to find out what the original version of Rugrats Theory that was sung by Luka was for a long time and the fact that it ended up being found was nothing but a wonderful surprise, in fact it might have been my first exposure to lost media so that's neat

[ruum]

The apps r honestly my favorite. They really have an eerie aura to them. It's like no person made them, they just appeared one day. They're like ghosts yk?

[Ellioomus]

i love thisss, i love lost media and vocaloid so this is like heaven

[Bisylizzie]

While not quite the Luka concept art we might hope for, KEI did create 'if' versions of Luka and Rin/Len, as well as the Miku one, which may be the best indicator as to what she may have looked like.

Neat video, always find the "lost"/"what could have been" aspects of VOCALOID/Vocal Synths interesting

[supremiumz]

omg i actually remember akikoloid from back in the day lolol
i was in like 7th bor 8th grade when she dropped but i kinda just
forgot about her
what a fun vid, ty for sharing it ^^

Some more random things about masa lost media: he actually started posting in November of 2010 and he unfortunately has way more lost songs than 3 these include
Kagome uta
Crystal diva 1
Crystal diva 2
Don't say goodbye
Interface
Medical wedding
2winkle star and katsushika rhapsody And the medical wedding YouTube upload I'm 90% sure that was just a reupload of the clip except it had medical weddings full name Oh and finally no you can't use a 2011 nnd account or earlier to watch interface 😭👍

[mskittygemma]

Bit shocked that you did not talk about the unreleased MEIKO, KAITO and Luka Append voicebanks.

[NutyRiver]

I lay awake at night, troubled at just how many early vocaloid songs may have been lost to time. Since YT and niconico were new when vocaloid first came out, lots of stuff could’ve been removed without being archived, before being forgotten completely. I remember about a decade ago a mass orchestrated false copyright striking happening on YT that caused a notable number of vocaloid videos to just… vanish.

[Jerebee-DS]

My only complaint about the video is the audio. Besides that, it's absolutely fantastic! I learned more about Lost Media that pertained to Vocaloid, and I got to learn about lost songs by Masa! A win-win.

[deptheaven]

Oh man I didn't know that Ring Suzune and Hibiku Lui were considered lost media! I remember back in the day listening to Ring all the time :( same with Seeu! Here, I always thought she was just a vocaloid that had a niche group of producers and listeners :(

[koalamarcher]

I really enjoyed this video a ton!! I fixiate alot on lost media and ive always loved vocaloid so this video really made me happy! Thank you!

[jesternadia]

a few days ago a metal song called "METALUKA" by Guity was found because they played it on a livestream!

[sofpokp]

With masa then there are other lost media songs like crystal diva 1, twinkle star and kagome uta, recently crystal diva 2 got found yuppie :D I can't still believe it and it gives us more hope that other songs like medical wedding or kagome uta will be found! And apparently medical wedding had a reupload but it got privated so if we can find out the guy we can have medical wedding :3

[alexrod]

never had I imagined so much lost media in VOCALOID in less than 30 mins nice vid

[holyhikarithelarusimp]

A VocaP named ShroomyP remade the whole song, Interface, from that 10 sec. clip. Its REALLY impressive
