New Digital Single from STEREO DIVE FOUNDATION

Singer-songwriter RON's project STEREO DIVE FOUNDATION released a new digital single titled HIKARI on September 20th.

HIKARI was created to serve as the theme song for HIKARI Festival, a large fantasy convention held in Poznan, Poland. The event was held from August 16th to 18th this year, and STEREO DIVE FOUNDATION appeared as one of its guests.

The song is said to embody STEREO DIVE FOUNDATION's belief that music connects people around the world. It incorporates sounds and choral elements sourced from both Poland and Japan, aiming to create "an anthem where anime and music enthusiasts across borders come together to create a unifying chorus."

Links to download and stream HIKARI on various music platforms are available here. 

Additionally, STEREO DIVE FOUNDATION will be releasing a new digital album titled STEREO DIVE 03 this fall. The album will feature not just HIKARI, but also a number of theme songs for anime series such as "That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime," "SYNDUALITY Noir" and "Sengoku Youko."

RON commented:

"'Even when we're apart, we're still connected' - that's something that never changes, no matter the era. I hope you'll pay attention to the straightforward, unembellished lyrics and give it a listen."

The organizer of HIKARI Festival commented:

"We are so thrilled that RON has made the theme song for HIKARI Festival. It shows the bright and joyful character of our event. We created the festival with the idea of 'from fans to fans,' and this song expresses that in both its production and performance. In a unique experience, the fans could take part in the production by recording their voices, which were used in the piece. And then, during the SDF concert in Poland, we all sang the chorus together, which allowed everyone to become a part of the performance. Thank you for composing this song for us!"
