Crazy Frog

They run in the same orbit as Gummibär, Hampton The Hampster, K-391, Danzel and O-Zone, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into horsegiirL, Gummibär and Joost Klein, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.

Background

Crazy Frog is a Swedish CGI-animated character and Eurodance musician created in 2003 by actor and playwright Erik Wernquist. Marketed by the ringtone provider Jamba!, the character was originally created to accompany a sound effect produced by Daniel Malmedahl while attempting to imitate the sound of a two-stroke engine.
