Once more, Holeg's cinematic touch has turned this album to a pure soundtrack of an imaginary movie and leads the listener to a wide spectrum of emotions breaking down the musical boundaries.

Spies under Von Magnet influence project was inspired by two Spies remixes for Von Magnet released in 2003 and 2004. From that moment the production of a complete album based of Von Magnet's original songs taken from their whole discography was conceived. The chosen songs have been «digested», re-visited, re-arranged, mixed and produced according to Spies musical-universe by Holeg. More than an album of remixes, Holeg created a complete album.
