Your cover is really cool on your CD, who has done it. Is it important to have a cover that you understand what kind of music you play? What is your favorite cover all time?
-Jon: I've done it!

-
Milla: The key is that the cover is sovereign. It is a picture, a work of art in itself. Then it can of course be a plus if it is connected with the music.
-Jon: May be a point that they do not fit together but it should not be a coincidence in this case, it´s deliberate and well thought out.
 
-Milla: A favorite cover is Patti Smith, Easter.
-Jon: Bob Dylan, The freewheelin. I take out sometimes and watch when I want to be happy.

Is it important to get out physical discs? Is there any good record store in your city?
