231045-0637 was recorded in Sweet Silence studios in Copenhagen and produced by Nils Henriksen.[2] Its style differs from the hard rock of Gasolin'. By comparison, it is more pop-based and represents the start of the electronic sounds that would dominate his next records, Jungle Dreams [da] and Midt om natten. [citation needed]
