It appears Underworld wasn't the originator of the idea. I doubt UW is aware of this, doesn't seem like them to poach a project knowingly.

who gives a complete application working for free to someone.



there are contracts, and other things in place, along with patents, etc.

there are legal ways to settle this.

This was a VW project from its inception. What may or may not have gone on with the genesis of the idea has nothing to do with UW, who were brought on in a consultancy role for the music engineering.

That's what I suspected. Thanks for confirming. Glad the 'Internet Hate Machine' isn't turning its gaze on UW and keeping it squarely on VW.

So did anything ever become of this?

I think the marketing for Volkswagen and the opportunity to have made this for UW was the things that became. Doubt we will see/here any more of this again.

We might get the audio one day. Sounds like it was a version of Swing Up High which was sounding good.
