Thank you DEFIANT RESONANCE! (With Artists' Greetings)

Can you believe it's already been 3 weeks?!
Me neither. We've been so busy working on our upcoming Halloween party as well as a certain other secret project that time really just flies past.
But I digress.

We're back again with the artists' regards — this time it's unfortunately just for Saturday, because these things are very cumbersome to put together, and we're already late and understaffed (´･ᆺ･`) sowwy!

The artists' regards

Without any further ado, here's what Saturday's artists had to say, in order of appearance:

Temma

I'd love to give a huge thanks to everyone who came to listen to my set at Neonya on the 2nd! It was my first time ever visiting Finland and everyone gave me such a warm welcome.

Even though I was the first set everyone brought such great energy and I had so much fun. I hope I can come hang out and listen to awesome music again sometime in the future whether its to DJ or just to attend!

Project Red

Neonya was my first footing on a somewhat bigger stage way back in the days of Covid and the beginning stages of my career. After that I have been playing a lot of gigs, small and big, yet the ones hosted by Neonya remain at the top. Awesome parties, awesome people and all around top notch vibes throughout the night!

In a way, as my second Neonya booking this was a full circle moment for me. Big shout out to the awesome crew behind the concept and the absolute maniacs in the crowd!

Thank you!

Yuta Imai

Neonya!! Partyに来てくれたみんな！ありがとうございました！
Thank you to everyone who came to Neonya!! Party!

アジア以外の国でDJをするのは初めてで、今回のショーをとても楽しみにしていました！
This was my first time DJing outside Asia, so I was super excited for the show!

みんなめちゃくちゃバイブス高く盛り上がっていて、本当に素敵なパーティでした！！
You all brought some crazy energy and vibes with you to the floor, and it turned out to be one truly incredible party!!

これを書いている時にまたフィンランドに戻りたくなっています（笑）
またどこかでお会いしましょう！
Writing this, I'm already longing to come over again! (lol)
Hope to see you all again somewhere!

Yuta Imaiでした！！
Yuta Imai out!!

Substanced

Thank you Neonya and everyone at the party!
You guys were on fire on the dancefloor!
This was my first time at Neonya Party but definitely not the last!

See you next time!

皆さん、Neonya!! Party! DEFIANT RESONANCEは楽しんでいただけましたか？
This is Laur!
Did you all enjoy Neonya!! Party: DEFIANT RESONANCE?

僕にとっては、間違いなく人生で最高の思い出のひとつになりました。
For my part, it is without a doubt one of the finest memories of my life so far.

初めてのヨーロッパ遠征だったのですが、
非日常でワクワクする5日間を今でも鮮明に覚えています。
It was my very first time visiting Europe, and I can still vividly recall those extraordinary and exciting five days.

いろんな国から来てくれたファンの皆さんと直接お話できて、
国内外を問わず多くの方に音楽を聴いていただけているんだと実感できました。
I had wonderful conversations with so many fans from different countries, and it really crystallized for me once again just how many people, both in Japan and abroad, are listening to my music.

これからも、良い楽曲と最高のDJパフォーマンスを届けられるよう全力を尽くします。
I will keep giving my all to bring you more great music and the best possible DJ performances in the future.

また必ずそちらに戻ってきます！
今回本当にありがとうございました！
I will absolutely be back again!
Thank you so much for this time!

D'ort

Neonya, what a night… This will forever remain a highlight in my career, the energy and commitment you all have is INSANE. I had the time of my life playing and I can’t thank you all enough for the amazing energy you brought, it really was better than I could’ve hoped for.

I also wanna give a massive shoutout to the organisation for making such a sick event happen! Everyone, again, thank you for everything, you were so kind, fun, and energetic! I’d be beyond excited and very honoured if I can return some day!

Thank you all so much!!! Until next time :D

D’ort

DOLLVOiD

Despite some technical difficulties at Prizmatic Overdrive back in March, I was really happy to hear that people liked my performance - to the point of being booked again for Defiant Resonance!

It truly was an honor to be able to bring my style of Speedcore to Neonya!! Party once more, alongside such a stacked lineup. The crowd was also absolutely great, packed with energy until the very end - I had a blast performing for you! Of course, big thanks also go out to the organizers, the crew, the artists, and everyone else involved in making this event possible!

Looking forward to the next time!
