Gohgo Traces HIMEHINA's Live Craft Back To Hatsune Miku
The interview puts the mechanics of a VTuber live show on the record: one person assembling the entire set in a DAW before any staging, with the format's distinction from Vocaloid shows defined as the performer's own will rather than the production.

In the second half of a PANORA interview, Studio LaRa's Gohgo describes how he builds HIMEHINA live sets alone in a DAW before staging, mixing songs with no gaps the way a club DJ would. He says he wrote lyrics for the first time on "Hitogata," and that his roots as a creator lie in Hatsune Miku, whose expression he sees carried into HIMEHINA's live shows.
Gohgo, who writes and composes for HIMEHINA and directs the group's live shows as part of Studio LaRa, says he builds a full run of connected audio in a DAW before anything is staged. Songs run into each other with no gaps, following club and DJ practice, so the set accumulates feeling rather than resetting between tracks.
He also places his own starting point in Hatsune Miku. The difference he draws between Vocaloid concerts and VTuber concerts is the performer's own intent, which he says he named in HIMEHINA's first one-man live, "Kokoro wo Sakebe."
