Creation and publication

In an interview on June 6, 2010, the band announced that they were working on a new album. It has been described as a continuation of the album The END . The album title symbolizes the adoption of new technologies, such as artificial realities, 3D and "360 video". It was also about being experimental and playing around with “crazy, sick beats”. The official announcement of the record took place on October 26, 2010. The Time (Dirty Bit) was released as the first single , which immediately reached number one in the German single charts . On February 18, 2011, the second single, Just Can't Get Enough , was released. The accompanying music video was filmed in Tokyo just a week before the Tōhoku earthquake and is dedicated to all people in Japan. It was released on March 16, 2011. The third single was Don't Stop the Party , which, however, could not build on the success of its predecessor. In addition, the song Whenever was released as a download single in countries such as France, Belgium, Switzerland and Austria .
