After this album, Rundek directed a play called No,[3] and Haustor broke up.
In 1986, the group performed at Zagrebfest with the song "Samo na čas". In the same year, Rundek participates in the album Mnoge smo i mnoge voljeli by Rade Šerbedžija.

In December 1987, the group began working on a new album.[6] Album was recorded in March 1998 in Zagreb. The album is the result of the reduction of earlier ideas.[7] The concept of the album is a mixture of ethno-rock, jazz etc.
