Background

The album was the result of the collaboration of U Škripcu and Košava members Aleksandar "Vasa" Vasiljević (guitar) and Aleksandar "Luka" Lukić (guitar) with former Vampiri members Dejan "Peja" Pejović (vocals), Dejan "Dexi" Petrović (vocals) and drummer Goran "Gedža" Redžepi, in order to play music different than the one played in their own bands. The album was recorded at the Music Factory studio except for the opening track ("Baltazar"), which was recorded at the Studio "O" in Belgrade. The chorus of this track referred to Professor Balthazar cartoon series, which was very popular in SFRJ during the 1970s. The track "Trajna Nina" featured lyrics from the Beatles track "Yellow Submarine".
