The Insider Insight

"The concept of Hatsune Miku, an open-sourced character made relevant by fans, would be crazy innovative even today. 'Born' by Crypton Future Media in 2007, Hatsune established so many truths that multiple virtual influencer teams now base entire visions off. From the idea that an entire fandom could be the creator, to seeing a 2D image mobilize thousands to stadiums for live concerts, to creating a friend who will never age or fall out of relevance, Hatsune Miku is an innovator and an icon."Show me a new one!Send EmailInstagramYouTubeWebsiteMerch StoreSpotifyTwitterTwitchFacebookTikTok

More info

Hatsune Miku is a Japanese music sensation, a 16 year-old blue-haired girl with a unique voice and prodigious energy. What makes her special is that she is not a human singer, but a virtual persona who uses a computer-generated voice and 3D graphics to perform on stage. With a repertoire entirely provided by individual creators, she is the first truly crowd-created virtual talent. But being virtual doesn't stop her from filling up concert halls, or teaming up with major artists like Lady Gaga and Pharrell Williams!

Internationally popular, with over 2.5 million followers on Facebook, the increasing demand for concerts overseas paved the way to Miku Expo, a world tour that has so far taken her from Indonesia to Los Angeles, New York and Shanghai, with a memorable TV stop at the David Letterman show.

In 2016, she returned for a series of live concerts in her native country of Japan, before heading to North America for even more dates, to once again meet thousands of fans eager to see her "in person"! Sourced from Crypton Future Media, creators of Hatsune Miku.
