Their debut long player, Snowboarding in Argentina was released by The Medicine Label (United States) and Pagan Records (UK) in May 1998. It garnered many positive reviews. The album was later chosen as 1998 Album Of The Year in the U.S. dance publication Mixer. They went on to release four further studio albums making their place in the electronic music canon.
