Posted on YouTube through a new account under the moniker “4162016211411” last January 1st 2017, the video titled “Alive 2017” showing a futuristic setting on par with the enigmatic French duo’s live visuals before flashing the their moniker at the end begins to buzz through internet and unleashes passions between fans for whom it's a serious announcement and those who just see another happening created by a fan.
