The band took off in 2003 with the hit song "North Pole" which stayed at the top of Dutch dance charts for two consecutive weeks. The project is supported by leading DJ's such as Armin van Buuren and Tiësto. "North Pole" was soon followed by "Sahara" which was nominated for best Dance song of the year 2004.
