A special milestone for Rebelion
Since making their Decibel outdoor debut in 2016, Rebelion has grown into one of the biggest names in the hardstyle scene. With performances such as Overdose and Beyond The Horizon, the Scottish duo has left a lasting impression on the festival’s mainstage on multiple occasions.
For the official anthem, Rebelion once again teamed up with Micah Martin. Their previous collaborations include successful tracks such as A.I., We Own The Night, Never Back Down, The Edge, and Life Or Death.
Being selected to create the official Decibel anthem means a lot to the duo. “We’re incredibly proud that we are responsible for this year’s Decibel outdoor anthem, The Loudest City. It’s a huge honor since Decibel has always held a special place in our hearts from day one. We can’t wait for this year’s edition and rave together with all the rebels in The Loudest City on Earth,” Rebelion shared.
The soundtrack of ‘The Loudest City’
According to Decibel outdoor, the anthem captures the feeling visitors experience the moment they enter the festival grounds in Hilvarenbeek. The track tells the story of thousands of like-minded fanatics coming together through a shared passion for music and their love for the harder styles.
Combining Rebelion’s signature kicks with Micah Martin’s emotional vocals, The Loudest City aims to translate that unique festival feeling into music. “Every year, the Decibel anthem becomes the soundtrack of an unforgettable summer. The Loudest City perfectly captures the connection between our visitors, the music, and the city we build together every year,” the organization stated.
