1997 saw the release Opera ( G stone CD 002 ), their first album, which featured old + new tracks and was described as soulful and analogue soundscape. Some saw it as a smooth fusion of ambient funk + delicate dub. The mixmag wrote: It's the blues, and the thick sultry bass, that make this as sexy and melancholy as cigarette smoke after a one night stand in a strange city. In between the album tracks there is the famous chocolate elvis, who guides you through the different Tosca - highlights.
