In November 1986 they issued a big sized poster Schmeiss die Krücken weg (throw away the crutches) and a press statement explaining the concept of both records and their secret immaterial 5th LP content. When played on two turntables simultaniously, the tracks form a brand new tracks. Each corresponding track on both records has the same length and is composed to accompany the counterpart, thus forming fitting new tracks. They never intended really materializing this secret 5th LP. In starting digital times they choose to issue this experiment on CD: Each channel contains one part of each track. When listened to in stereo, you hear the fifth LP. When only listened to the left channel, you'll hear Unser Debut, when listening only to the right channel, you'll hear sechs.
Both LP versions recorded 1985 at Atatak Studio, Düsseldorf. CD version mixed at Vielklang-Studios, Berlin.
