In an interview from 2002, Pete remembered:
“In fact, the detonation was ‘Air II’ - the spacey part of the track ‘Travelling Without Moving’ enthused Klaus. He wanted us to start to work together at once. It was the music that was of importance to him.
Although Klaus had had no interest in working together before on principle, I knew I could convince him with my music. That was the key of our co-operation. The track was in a sort of Schulze/Tangerine Dream style with it’s analogue synthi-bass sequences; it became apparent to both of us that we should approach things with analogue tools first of all. Although it wasn’t so easy initially, the musical result finally convinced him. I didn’t want to do just a remake of seventies space-music - I intended to meld it with the beats and sounds of today’s electronic music, and I think we succeeded.”
