Thanks everyone for the crazy response on my new track. I remember making it back in January 2021. I decided to save the track for 'better times' since I felt it would fit perfectly in the Defqon.1 Endshow. 16 months later it was featured in The Closing Ritual as the first ever Defqon.1 Closing Theme, which makes me incredibly proud. For me this track shows that sometimes in life you gotta hold on, go through the shitty parts and wait for better times to come. Exactly what we did with this track. Because always remember.. we will RISE AGAIN 🧡

You made me remember in those lyrics how many times I felt bad mentally (Not only covid, I suffer from mental health issues daily, I'm 26) and made me cry 😢❤️ I literally felt touched inside for good (I'm fine) 👍🏻👍🏻 thanks.
This track has more emotions than Defqon anthems in last 5-6 years. What a masterpiece.

remember Defqon is a summer festival, so its anthem has to bring a bunch of emotions (it has to be uplifting and emotive while keeping strong), which is something difficult and more if it's the main Hard Dance festival in the world. For me, Primal Energy was an amazing anthem because it had all of that, but I gotta agree with you, this track was the most emotive track in a long time

@@Joseanfer-zs9zm Yea agreed. But I have to say that I missed some numbers. For me personally last defqon anthems that hat the real vibe of defqon are "World Of Madness" and "Weekend Warriors", so its been 10 years since real anthem vibes, sadly..
We Rise Again! What a powerful track 🧡

Goosebumps and tears all over again😭🥹 this Defqon was so epic 🧡
The people crying on this video representes everyone
I sit here in Australia listening to this song remembering the good times: the times when I could be amongst my people; The times when my heart could beat hard to the sound of bass and laughter... the time I could be home. I miss Defqon 1 Australia with all of my heart. I never feel comfortable in crowds, but I would dive into that crowd of 30k people like they were family. They are my family. I miss them. I miss home. Bring back Defqon Australia... *Let us rise again!*
Just hearing this for the first time and im breaking in tears. The lyrics hitting so deep and on top the video with other people in tears, just wow. What an emotional and beautiful song. This is why I could never abandon music. Much love to all brothers and sisters! ❤️

This is hands down one of the best Hardsyle tracks ever made! Especially after covid, this hit even more hard.
This song, this moment and this feeling made my whole body cry. Defqon is the place where you can shut off everything around you and just be yourself. No stress, no drama nothing to worry about. I’ve been to defqon 2 times now and i will be every Year simply because i need it ❤️
Track of the year without a doubt! Simply amazing

Dont let your past define the choices we make in the future. For these are the moments that define our future. Now take a look around you, brothers and sisters in arms. Look how far we’ve come. Own the moment. Embrace your individuality. Head high, head first. Dont be afraid to dig deeper. Dont be afraid of what you find. Learn to love the darkness, so we can see ourselves in the light. So when you question the times. Always remember, we will RISE AGAIN!
Beautiful track and also what a beautiful message. I'm cry.😥😍😭😭😭😭 FOR THIS AND MUCH MORE DEFQON.1 WILL ALWAYS BE THE BEST FESTIVAL IN THE WORLD. I LOVE YOU DEFQON.1 AND HARD STYLE. WE WILL RISE AGAIN.🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🤩🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍😍👊😎👊🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽

This is by far the best Hardstyle track of the last couple of years. Insanely emotional, yet so energetic. Perfect match for the closing ceremony. Those who listened to this at Defqon1 for the first time are incredibly lucky!
crazy..😩😩. defqon.1 always manages to make people cry. no one laughed at that time, everyone looked at the stage, and felt it.
There is something special about this....
No words needed. It takes me back to the moment on defqon.1
It was absolutely unreal being here.
2:51 is a Dominator 2009 Anthem throwback! Pretty sure the guitar and string sample from this anthem was used and overdubbed here too ;)

This will not be beaten. At least not in my time in this planet earth. Thank you!
I felt overwhelmed with emotions hearing this just wow 🥰🥰🥰
This track is absolute perfection, fitted the theme of Defqon 1 2022 perfect ! After 3 years of nothingness Defqon and all the warriors rised from the ashes like Phoenix. We Will Rise Again next year and many years to come !! Love You Defqon 1 🧡
This is by FAR. The most amazing endshow track ever. This could be the best anthem Defqon had over a decade. Producers, if you see this. Please take an example to this track. THIS is what we want. Not peepkicks and empty vocals.
DON'T LET YOUR PAST DEFINE THE CHOICES WE MAKE IN THE PRESENT FOR THESE ARE THE MOMENTS THAT DEFINE OUR FUTURE NOW TAKE A LOOK AROUND YOU BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN ARMS LOOK HOW FAR WE'VE COME OWN THE MOMENT EMBRACE YOUR INDIVIDUALITY HEAD HIGH HEAD FIRST DON'T BE AFRAID TO DIG DEEPER DON'T BE AFRAID OF WHAT YOU FIND LEARN TO LOVE THE DARKNESS SO WE CAN SEE OURSELVES IN THE LIGHT SO WHEN YOU QUESTION THE TIMES ALWAYS REMEMBER WE WILL RISE AGAIN
Goosebumps from head to toes. What a Masterpiece
Don't let your past define the choices we make in the present For these are the moments That define our future Now, take a look around you Brothers and sisters in arms Look how far we've come Own the moment, embrace your individuality Head high, head first Don't be afraid to dig deeper Don't be afraid of what you find Learn to love the darkness So we can see ourselves in the light So when you quеstion the times Always remеmber We will rise again very strong message spread the LOVE

Track of the year. Wow.
To me this is pure perfection, the stage setting with the angelic phoenix like being, the lighting, the fireworks, the powerful music. All blended together in beautiful harmonious synergy. The theme speaks to my soul. "Learn to love the darkness, so we can see ourselves in the light", I felt these words deep into my core because this is what I'm learning right now in life during this phase of dark, intense internal struggle. I'm beginning to see that If immerse myself in the dark fully I will grow and it will spring me back to new unknown heights like a phoenix rising from its ashes. I've done it so many times and I will do it again. The darkness is nothing to be afraid of, it's one of our greatest guides and teachers. WE WILL RISE AGAIN Thank you Q-dance for this divine creation 🙏🏽 ❤️
Looking over the crowd from the hill, seeing everyone hugging each other, crying, smiling... so many emotions brought out by this moment. Will be one of the most beautiful moments i'll ever experience in my lifetime. Thank you Defqon.1 ❤️
This is the anthem of LIFE!
