's debut album, although of the musicians featured on it only Dinger and Victoria "Wicki" Wehrmeister would form a consistent part of the future La!

In late 1994 Dinger was contacted by a group of young Düsseldorf musicians who had recently formed Kreidler and released their debut album "Riva".

In 1995 he travelled to Berlin to sit-in on sessions for Kreidler's second album "Weekend", and quickly identified keyboardist Andreas Reihse as a future collaborator.

He improvised lyrics using a piece of pop art (entitled "New Dead-Line (12345 Mandela)" and reproduced in the CD booklet) which he was working on at the time.

Wehrmester was at that time vocalist and saxophonist for "Superbilk", another Düsseldorf band which had released a joint single with Kreidler ("Kookaï / Bildidee" ) earlier that year.

The pair then rode to Dinger's studio on their bicycles and Wehrmeister recorded improvised backing vocals in her trademark ululating style.

The pair organised a jamming session on 22 December, inviting Kreidler's drummer Thomas Klein and Die Engel des Herrn's drummer Klaus Immig as well as Dinger's friends Dirk Flader and Konstantin Wienstroer (who had appeared on Die Engel des Herrn's album Live As Hippie-Punks).
