Comment from emon(Tes.):
Hello everyone, this is emon(Tes.). I am honored to have been entrusted with the theme song for YOZORA PROGRAM 2026. With the theme being "Live!", I aimed to create a straight, high-speed rock tune that packages the heat and explosive energy of a live performance. I asked Miku for a more emotional vocal than her usual cute expression. I personally treasure spaces where I share music directly with audiences through DJing, and live venues really do have a special energy that can only be born in that moment. This track was crafted with attention to every note — imagining the heat of the crowd, the pressure of the speakers, and the instant the entire floor comes together as one. I look forward to sharing the best "Live!" with everyone under the night sky through this song.
