A single that adds tracks and lyrics to the jingle (acappella) commissioned by Kraftwerk and produced for the 2000 Hannover World Exposition in Germany. A song that became the prototype of the track "Planet of Visions" that will be played every time on the tour later.
The original vocoder voice by Kraftwerk, the creator of techno, which is still popular in Germany, where live tickets are sold out in two minutes. During the World Expo at the time, it was played during vehicle stop guidance, awards, press conferences, TV and radio broadcasts, call center hold music, and was also available for free download on the Expo website.
