swedish komeda's connection to dot goes via nons (north of no south =
music) which is dot's motherlabel (or something like that). listened to =
one of their albums once about half a year ago but i didn't find it very =
interesting. just had to listen to it because it had nons written on it =
and the dr kosmos cocktail album released on nons was simply hilarious! =
pure cheesy cocktail casiosynth-music with stupid lyrics! track 5 is btw =
entitled 'krazy negroes eating magic mushrooms watching tv clapping =
their hands when harold lloyd appears at the tv-screen crying heavily' =
and i guess that speaks for itself. hardly idm, but fun anyway.
