The band's first album Tonight Is The Constant was produced by Hamburg-based Electro musician Norman Kolodziej (Der Tante Renate, Bratze) and released in 2009 at Cobretti Records. The Cover was designed by Hannes Naumann.

The album received mainly positive reviews. Michael Möller of Laut.de for instance called it a "truly acceptable record" with "fitting sound and direction". However, Möller stated he expected more originality for the next album. In his review for Intro, Benjamin Walter classified the music not as Techno but rather as "High-Speed-Pop", which he described as highly danceable. He specifically praised the choruses and the work of producer Kolodziej.
