Billy commented on the new release: “It was time for a full album which includes underrated old material and new music that will set the standards for my next music chapter. Except the formal musical gear, I also used field recordings of several unusual animals/machines that fit perfectly in my mind as musical instruments. I have a yellow canary singing in Athens and a ventilation system that operates in a public space. Both of them resulted in a perfect duet! Moreover, I used an electric drill that offered a great live performance and partially destroyed the wall of my house! We live in a Matrix where the music of the nature and the urban sounds create a parallel universe of music around us. Get these sounds now!”

Billy also released a promotional video so as to visualize aesthetically the space atmosphere of his song Welcome to the planet. The promotional video deals with the concept of exploring and recording a trip to the universe.
