Always remember.. we will RISE AGAIN 🧡
Beyond proud to be the first artist ever to create the official Defqon.1 Closing Theme 🙏🏼
INSANE🔥🔥🔥
awesome
This gives me goosebumps every time I hear it ❤️
It's so good! ❤️🔥❤️🔥
Hard Driver for Qlimax your time has come
Glad to notice that i wasn't the only one crying at hard driver's track live... the first track really touches me on a certain point right inside my soul
So what if it was only you who was crying? This is what music does to people! Just let it go, and be yourself! Music unit's, dance music unit's, defqon unit's! Let the world see war is not the answer, music is!! Till next year defqon 1. Had the greatest time that weekend 💪🏻🇳🇱
Don't worry man, everyone in my group cried😂❤️
We all did! Its the 🧡 inside of us my friend 👍
This is touching so you're not the only one crying
Cried my eyeballs out😢
I cannot begin to explain what this was like in the crowd. People crying around you, everyone being dead silent and just listening and feeling. Truly a masterpiece. Unreal and will forever be remembered.
This year the Closing ceremony was better than the Endshow. The feeling was so heavy, and truly will be remembered forever
Even though it was significantly shorter, the closing ceremony just hit all the right spots.
@@riven6618 yeah it did
I agree
i think thats true for most of the years, Closing is always waaaaay more intensive and much better. Endshow ist just longer..
What is the difference between closing and endshow
Whenever I feel down, lose confidence, lose faith, lose hope, feel like a nobody. Hardstyle save me.
I'm indeed a warrior of the tribe. 🧡
This was one of the best moments of my entire life. My biggest lifegoal came true... I waited 10 years for this weekend (since the endshow of 2012/2013). And i can say, it was more than worth it.
Thank you, thank you Q-Dance for everything.
And especially thank you people for such a fantastic community... I met so many nice people during the weekend. Cheers.
Love from germany 🧡
Was it worth the clot shot?
🙏🏽🏆💗 WE ARE A FAMILY 💗🏆🙏🏽
@@lovemathou This is who we are 🧡
@@lovemathou till you get disowned for refusing to participate in experimental injections lol
Bro we had the same then. So awesome. For me it was 11 years. Was such a joyful weekend!
4 months later and it still makes me emotional. I WAS THERE
Looking back at this once again, i still can't believe i was in that crowd. The emotions were so high.
Rise again hit on different level.
That song is everything you need to know about hardstyle.
loved every single second of the closing ritual.
Just.. amazing.
This show is amazing. I got diagnosed with a brain tumor and the text is so applicable to me. This brings me strength!!!
Head high, head first!
Just dig a little deeper and don't be afraid what you will find.
Learn to love the darkness so you can see yourself in the light!
This entire festivals production was on another level that not even tomorrowland or ANY festival can TOUCH!!! AMAZING WORKKKKKK!!
I totally agree!! No other festival can come close to this 🧡🧡🧡
It was my first Defqon 1 edition and i cried the whole 10 minutes at the closing. Thank you everyone whether Q-Dance or the people around defqon1. You all made this Weekend so special to me and was one of the best experience that i've ever made
If I was stuck in a Groundhog Day time loop, I'd want to experience Defqon 1 every single day.
are you sure about that?
@@luig0 how could you not want to do this every day for the rest of eternity?
@@SeanoldBeasley I would die after like 10 days
@@tobirne That's the thing of Groundhog Day, every day you start the same ;)
Even if you blow yourself up in the endshow fireworks, you wake up on the same day
Bro will try to check out the fireworks from close 😂😂
I had to wait 3 long years to see this endshow again, and now the big moment has come, which for me is the hallmark of Defqon.1,we are the weekend warriors
🔼🔽See You Next Year🔽🔼
Beautiful message, it made me cry.😭😭😭😭😭
"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.
Ik kan nu helaas nog niet naar defqon of naar intens ofzo omdat ik 14 ben maar de filmpjes die ik zie geven me al kippenvel dus ik verheug me al zo erg op defqon als ik dit zie en als mijn echte droom uitkom sta ik op het podium maar dan moet ik nog ff me best doen op school🔥🔥
A fantastic weekend created by passionate people, I really appreciate Q-Dance because you do what you do, in today's world full of hatred, wars, pandemics, jealousy and other negative things, you bring happiness, joy and unity to thousands of people, in every year and you make our planet a better place. 👍🎶💯
The world has probably never been better and more peacefull then today.
Well said ❤️
@@bpdbhp1632 Everyone has their own vision, thank you for your opinion.
@@Adrian-SuperNova thats true. Love your positive mindset though!
@@bpdbhp1632 I appreciate it! 🙌
awesome

La última música no la encuentro en CZcams.. que sub generó de electrónica es?
@@KaneaDes drum and bass
Super épica en mi opinión.
I've watched alot of EDM, Trance & Hardstyle festifals for atleast the last 8 years this was by far the best lightning and firework showdown i've seen. Big congrats to the organisation for putting this down.👏🏽💯🎉
Still goosebumps and tears in my eyes...
This was my first time ever at Defqon, what an insane experience. SO. GOOD 💥 Let's go again next year!!
nice you like it mate =)
My first time to, it ws an insane experience! It was my first festival too, I havent even been at a hardstyle event before! See you guys next year
Welcome in the family brother 🙏🏽✊🏽🎉✨💗
@@Alexander-vl9ry must've been even crazier if this was your first ever festival experience! I doesn't get much better than this man 🧡
@@thijseggen2880 it was really awesome, it was a bit overwhelming, and the first day was really hot, too hot for me. But it was overall a really good experience and I will go next year too!
With Defqon 1 Legends and Ghoststories before it felt like 3 Hours of Closing Ritual and not 10 minutes. I am actually shocked that it apprerntly was that short. It sure did feel waaay longer.
True, it felt like forerver (in a good way though)
Exactly my thoughts!
Exactly. Ending on TNT and Ghost Stories was such a worthy conclusion to a great weekend.
This is hands down the most elaborate and well executed performance I have ever seen. As an engineer, I know exactly what it took to create this masterpiece. I’m not sure how much you spent on fireworks but it was worth every penny. The synchronization and display was absolutely next level. I swear at one point you shot off 10k in 10 seconds. 1k a second 😂
What do you think about the saturday endshow?
My ultimate goal is to experience this live, I’m crying, this is so beautiful 🧡
I just got the same goosebumbs as when i stood there. Big thanks to the crew and al the artist for making a unbelievable weekend experience . Up to next year.
After 9 months, this closing still the best hardstyle moment ... ever.
This closing was literally perfect. A masterpiece from Hard Driver, and an unbelievable show. I can’t stop watching it and getting goosebumps. Congrats to the artistic team. The best Closing Ritual i’ve ever seen since i go to Defqon1
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’ve 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!
WHAT. A. LYRICS.......
No fucking words, so emotional...
0:47 I made it in the video!!!! Thanks (Guy with the white cap)
Legend 🤝
If you ever have the chance to go to Defqon.1........JUST DO IT.
Words can't describe how awesome it was.
I wasn't at this years Defqon but by all the videos from Q-Dance, artists and fans, what you see and hear, it was a very special Defqon with so many different emotions. Everyone was so hyped about it and I think nobody were disappointed. Wish i was there. 😁✌️
Y así concluye el Defqon.1 mas grande de la historia, gracias Q-Dance
This weekend was insane after dealing with so much shit in my life i could finally let go
Made new friends and enjoyed every second of this unbelievable weekend
WE WILL RISE AGAIN!
That Hard Driver track gave me goosebumps when I first heard it during the live stream! As much as I love HD's party stuff, I did miss his more heartfelt/storytelling songs. Well deserved that he got to make the first official Closing Theme for Defqon this year 🧡
8:39 was so sickkk!!!!!!!!
whoever invented the sequence after 8:40 is a mastermind.
pretty sure Dion mons who made it is devin wild right?
@@DigitalTek yess, according to the spotify credits
JDX and Devin Wild to be precise.
@@Zenthio thought i recognised the other name :)
when you hear and know the DnB Genre this isnt so special :-D
I didn‘t had tears you did.
Cried 😢😍 thanks Q-Dance
Props to editors, pyro technicians and everyone who worked there to deliver the videos and future photos.
... Obviously thank you to all the workers who built the stages, the the tents, speakers, lights and sound.
Thank you 🧡
El track de Hard Driver me llego al alma, gracias Q-dance por subir esta obra maestra :')
Estoy muy orgulloso de pertenecer a esta comunidad que se mantuvo fuerte y unida en la pandemia y ahora volvió más fuerte que nunca, bendito sea el momento en que conocí el hardstyle, grancias Q-dance y Defqon.1 siempre serán parte de nuestras vidas ♡
wenn man denkt das war die krasseste Endshow allerzeiten, dann kommt Q dance ein Jahr später und legt nochmal 10 schüppen drauf. Wahnsinn
Thank u again Q DANCE ! 🇨🇱🇨🇱 I FLEW FROM SANTIAGO TO HOUSTON, I WAITED 10 HOURS IN U.S THEN FLEW TO AMSTERDAM, TRAIN TO DRONTEN AND FINALLY SHUTTLE TO DEFQON, UNBELIAVABLE YOU ARE 🔥🔥🔥✨✨✨✨👍👍👍😊😊😊 COMPLETELLY WORTH IT ! 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 🇨🇱 WAS THERE
Was the clot shot worth it?
@@pokemmoesports5651 Absolutely ! Another level experience !! ❤️❤️
@@matiasortiz6768 So injecting experimental medicine is worth it to party for you? I guess you value a few moments of fun over your entire existence then.
I'm watching this with tears, thank you Q-dance for the best weekend in my life. See you next year!
Loudspeaker supplier: How much bass do you want for the RED stage?
Q-Dance: Yes.
Its the 50th time I'm seeing this, and I cried all the times... 🧡🧡
I've repeated the first song all day and I am still so touched.
Will the post-Defqon.1 depression ever end? 😭😭😭 Watching these videos and thinking about the amazing and intense moments we experienced during this weekend. Thank you Q-Dance!
Post Defqon is before Defqon. Get hyped for 2023.
@@mightknight123 ahaha youre either waiting for defqon or youre at defqon
For me it did, now getting my feelings up for this year's weekend.
无论是音乐还是灯光，都是顶级的，赞
This was the perfect way to end the best weekend of my life! I teared up during the whole closing ritual and just didn't want it to end.
Thank you Q-Dance, this will forever be a great memory 🧡
Got so many chills and goosebumps with that Pitcher track. This one is really special and so Damn perfect to close the weekend.
Hands down for the Hard Driver's one.
Once again the closing way more intense and emotional.

Poh, wat een kippenvel door dit terug te zien. Wat een fantastische dag wat het, weer zat mee, de sfeer super, muziek top en mooiste show op een festival die ik ooit heb gezien! Heb het er gewoon ff moeilijk mee dat het weer een jaar duurt voordat het weer zo ver is! Bedankt voor deze geweldige ervaring Q-dance en alle aanwezige partypeople!!
Every year this is so epic, but the 2018 closing ritual was the best for me. Legends Never Die
Thank you Q-Dance for this unforgettable reunite after such a longe time. All you Weekend Warriors, you we're the best fucking crowd in the world! Met new and old friends. Primal Energy was one of the best editions that Defqon.1 ever had. That feeling to be free and just living the moment made it to be an memorie for a lifetime. 😍😭👏🧡🎆
This years Defqon was insane. Great job guys, keep the fireworks coming. See you next year!
Living this moment again gets me goosebumps like I'm still there. Best experience of my life, and yes, see you next year! 🧡
Every new year, Q-Dance sets the bar up higher.. This year was no exception after a couple of years of break. What an epic comeback! Impressive
THANK you Q-dance for these moments. They are in our mind forever. Can’t wait for next year
im always so damn amazed at these closing rituals (and end shows). its always so epic (true to the word) and 1 of the few things that makes me a bit sad is that i will never be able to attend 1 but just the videos over the years have had me stunned by amazement so thanks for uploading them :)
