A dual-coder intro from the Ikari+Talent partnership, with Doc and Fletch sharing programming duties. JCH — Jens-Christian Huus, one of the most prolific SID composers of the era — contributed two tunes: "Ode to JO" and "Laxin'," both preserved in the HVSC. CSDb lists the release under Talent's group entry, confirming their role as the primary production arm of the joint venture. Released on 23 November 1989, this arrived just four months after the alliance's founding in July 1989. The dual-coder, dual-tune approach was relatively unusual — most intros featured a single programmer and one SID composition. JCH's "Ode to JO" is a tribute to fellow musician Jesper Olsen, reflecting the tight personal networks within the Danish SID music community. This is one of several Ikari+Talent entries in the rankings, including #15 I+T-03.
