Utsu-P (鬱P, lit. Depression-P, born December 1, 1990) is a Japanese musician, producer, and bassist, best known for his work in the Vocaloid music scene, particularly within the metal genre. He is recognized for using Vocaloid software to produce aggressive vocal styles, such as shouts and screams, typically achieved through filters and effects. His music often features heavy basslines and complex, introspective melancholic lyrics. Utsu-P began playing bass guitar at age 13 and formed a hardcore band at 15. In 2008, he started releasing music on Niconico Douga, using Hatsune Miku as his primary Vocaloid voice. His early works, including "stuPid people" and "Crimson of Sadness," helped shape his signature approach to Vocaloid metal. Over time, he expanded his use of different Vocaloid voicebanks, such as Rin, GUMI, and flower. In 2009, Utsu-P released his first EP, DOLL, followed by his debut album DIARRHEA, which featured the notable track "Corpse Attack!!". His second album, TRAUMATIC (2010), is considered a significant release in the Vocaloid metal genre, featuring tracks like "Vermin" and "Heart Sutra Hardcore." By 2013, Utsu-P had gained wider recognition with the release of Warufuzake, his first major-label album, recorded with live instrumentation. Throughout the 2010s, Utsu-P collaborated with various artists, including Pinocchio-P (ピノキオピー) and Sekihan (赤飯), and participated in compilation albums such as VOCALOUD 01 - Breaking of the Emotion. In 2014, he released the album ALGORITHM, further establishing himself as a prominent figure in the Vocaloid community. His work often pushed the boundaries of what Vocaloid software could achieve, particularly in the metal genre. In addition to his Vocaloid projects, Utsu-P co-founded the band The Ohayogozaimas (おはようございます) in 2015, serving as bassist and primary songwriter. The band reflected a shift in his musical focus towards a more pop-oriented style in his The Ohayogozaimas compositions, while maintaining a heavier sound with his Vocaloid productions. He also produced and wrote music for the idol group Zsasz, which disbanded in 2023.
