The album was recorded from September 4âÂÂ7, 1975 in Akademik Studio in Ljubljana, with the exception of the blues track "Negde daleko", recorded on the band's performance in Belgrade Sports Hall on 2 January 1974. It was produced by the band's bass guitarist and vocalist Robert NemeÃÂek and Ivo Umek. The album featured guest appearances by S Vremena Na Vreme member Ljuba Ninkoviàand keyboardist and composer Sloba MarkoviÃÂ. Both of them appeared as guests on Pop Maà ¡ina's previous album, Kiselina (Acid).
The song "Rekvijem za prijatelja" ("Requiem for a Friend"), with lyrics written by Ljuba NinkoviÃÂ, was dedicated to Predrag JoviÃÂiÃÂ, the vocalist of the band San, who earlier that year died from an electric shock on a concert in ÃÂair Sports Center in Nià ¡. The song was musically inspired by Johann Sebastian Bach's choral composition and featured a string quartet. The album featured a new version of the song "Zemlja svetlosti", previously released on a 7-inch single.
The album was reissued in 2008, on vinyl, by Austrian record label Atlantide.
