- From August 16th to August 18th, Pyrkon, one of Europe’s largest fantasy conventions, held the “HIKARI Festival” themed on anime and manga in Poznan, Poland. This included STEREO DIVE FOUNDATION, who not only performed the event’s theme song but also made their debut. September 20th is the digital release date of the theme song “HIKARI”.
- This song was specially created for the HIKARI Music Festival and embodies STEREO DIVE FOUNDATION’s belief that “music connects people around the world.” The song combines vocal and choral elements from Poland and Japan, crafted into a harmonious piece. The result is an anthem that brings anime and music lovers across borders together to create a unified chorus.
- Additionally, STEREO DIVE FOUNDATION is pleased to announce the upcoming digital album STEREO DIVE 03, which will be released this fall. This album includes not only “HIKARI”, but also many theme songs from popular TV anime such as “About the Time I Was Reincarnated as a Slime”, “SYNDUALITY Noir”, and “Sengoku Yōko”. Don’t miss this incredible collection!
Ron’s comment
“Even if we are apart, we still stay connected” – no matter what era, this sentence will never change. I hope everyone will pay attention to the straightforward, unembellished lyrics and give it a listen.
Comments from the organizers of HIKARI Music Festival
We are delighted that RON produced the theme song for the Hikari Festival. It demonstrates the bright and joyful character of our activities. We created this festival with the idea of ”from fans to fans” and this song expresses this in both its production and performance. In a unique experience, fans can participate in the production through the sounds used in the recording. Then during the Polish Self-Defense Forces concert, everyone sang the chorus together, making everyone a part of the performance. Thank you for creating this song for us!
