In February 2010, they self-released the song "Marchin' In" for free which received favourable reviews from music media like Pitchfork and NME. In August 2010, the song "Sleepless" was released on Moshi Moshi which was described by British newspaper The Guardian as "...a gorgeous slice of piano-inflected dance pop".
