They recorded their first album "Global Experience",** released on Island Def Jam Digital over 3 continents together, founding members were Raimund Breitfeld, Steffen Goeres, Don Bruner, Stephan Goessl and Roland Childs.Grammy Award winners Pat Hunt and Randy Miller,** who produced the bands first album, joined the band replacing Don Bruner and Roland Childs 2012.
