For Aquatic Beats, TONEEJAY performed his originals, including “711,” a chart-topping song on Billboard Philippines’ Philippines Songs chart. He also performed the 9th WMA-winning track “Ang Bawat Piyesa (Secret Verse Ver.),” the soon-to-be-released “Aurora,” and “Parang Magic.”

Before wrapping up his set, TONEEJAY shared his thoughts about the event, “‘Yung ganitong mga outing, maraming core memories ‘no? Mapapa-main character moment ka… Andami mong realization [na], ay marami palang nagmamaghal sa akin, ‘yung parang ganon. Marami kayong mga ibabaon ‘pag-uwi.”

During his heart-rending set, he also gave a glimpse into his future offerings. He stated, “Thank you so much… Sana abangan niyo ‘yung mga i-rerelease kong songs in the future kasi medyo iba na siya. Sana magustuhan niyo. Thank you so much for streaming my songs. Sana wag kayo magsawa.”
