A sample of a cover song by Kalon. "PONPONPON", original by Kyary Pamyu Pamyu |
kalon. is an utaite who started uploading at the end of 2010.
She has a voice with a firm steady tone, which can sound cool and somewhat husky, to be seen in her cover of "Ikasama⇔Casino" , making her voice surprisingly fit more powerful songs well. But to be seen in her cover of "High Risk×Lolita" , she has equally shown, that her voice can sound beyond cute, at times additionally through the use of autotune like in her "Finder", as well as a calm voice, such as in her duet cover with Freedel, "A Whole New World".
The majority of her covers are in Japanese, but occasionally she sings in English, as she currently lives in Canada, also leading to her being dubbed a "Kanada no Utahime" (カナダの歌姫, songstress of Canada). Her English cover of "PONPONPON" is also her most popular cover with over 312K views as of July 2013.
She mostly sings VOCALOID and also anime songs, often featuring in the seasonal Shinsaku Anime no Kyoku wo Matomete Collabo, singing anime songs of the season. She is also known for her various renditions of the most well-known Kyary Pamyu Pamyu songs "PONPONPON", "CANDY CANDY" and "Tsukema Tsukeru".
kalon. participated in the Dream Vocalist anime arrange cover contest by Tereto, Nico Nico Douga and koebu, and notably has won the grand prix of the third period with the kous arrange of "Tama no Refrain" and therefore had the honor to be featured in the Dream Vocalist album, released by SME Records on March 21, 2012.
