The track will feature on Jarre's new album, and demonstrates Jean-Michel's desire to work with leading producers from the new generation.

On the collaboration, Gesaffelstein said:

"When I first started making music, I looked toward the pioneers of electronic music. I was interested in synthesisers and the technology they used around that time, so obviously I came across Jean-Michel Jarre, Kraftwerk...I love sequencers, I use them of course, and Jean-Michel uses them a lot, he is part of my influences."
