In autumn 1996, while working on the biogas project for Tanzania, SUPERFLEX met composer and sound designer August Engkilde with whom they shared a common interest in animal acoustics and fascinating images of African animals. Together they produced a series of music based on these animals and their sounds which is now released on vinyl as Warum sollten wir Angst vor großen Tieren haben?. Which translates to Why should we be afraid of big animals?.
