[Summary]
In the two years since Homepage KIDS started the Exploanet project, there has been no other music besides "Planet Aryon", which is both a major change of direction and a testament to the complexity of the Exploanet project.
The eight-song album, finally completed. 'HV' is finally released as the second lead single from the completed album.This song was composed by Ay Maooh. And this song was also recorded at Ay Maooh Studio and SOUND ARTS.

[Exploanet]
Hotspur and Ay Maooh, as the Homepage KIDS, use a device developed by "Planet Arth" to explore and investigate other planets, which is called Exploanet mission. Unlike modern physical rocket-based interplanetary travel, this device only transfers minds allowing for low-cost and safe planetary exploration.

[Background of Exploanet]
The Explore x Planet = Exploanet project began in 2022, which is a major turning point for Homepage KIDS. The members of Homepage KIDS wanted to break out of the Hip-hop genre that they had been creating and they were looking for something futuristic. In the end, they came up with the idea of creating a new story.
While treating the social situation in a metaphor, the band once distanced themselves from it as entertainment. Then, they tried to reach the core of the matter. The very same technique used in science fiction films has been used in the music.
In today's world of diverse values, we are asked to coexist with them. Planets and the aliens who inhabit them are, in other words, ideologies and the other people who behold them. To set foot on them may be as unknown an adventure as exploring the universe. This is the purpose and the driving force behind the Exploanet project.

The theme of this song is "Awakening"
This song, which pronounced as "High Voltage Part Two," is a self-remake of the song Hotspur and Ay Maooh wrote together in 2021, when Homepage KIDS were a five-member band. Although all the lyrics are in English, the essence of the song remains the same. The lyrics, which sound as if they are hallucinating even though they are supposed to be awake, tell us something about their state of mind. The lyrics are high voltage, but you can feel the languor from the voice.
The sound is a sample-heavy beat. The kicks have a strong transient, and the 808s are sub-focused. Brass and string samples are lo-fi and groovy.
The beat gradually fades out, and the melody of #1 is fading in. Then he starts thinking again i.e. Exploanet: Möbius repeats.
On the second lap, you will hear a different aspect of this music, like a Möbius wheel.
