Yvel and Tristan have been working on electronic music for 6 years, but they got the real appreciation from 2003. At first, as it use to be, the hungarian electronic music scene discovered the talent of the guys. They became a general favourite nubreed producer duo for the hungarian DJ's. Their fame rested upon the amount of new productions what were filled with emotions and melody. In the beginning they left a good impression in expert electronic music lovers with their couple of remixes then they made a name for themselves with their own productions. Their first remixes were found favour with a hungarian DJ who is thought to be the biggest icon of hungarian electronic music. This DJ’s name is Krisztian Horvath aka Chriss who is the owner of Foundation Records and the founder of The Quasar formation. Chriss became the biggest supporter of Yvel & Tristan and he asked them to make a remix for The Quasar's very first track called Together in 2004. This remix got to be famous all over in Europe and it was played in John Digweed's legendary Kiss 100 Show in the same year. From this point that name 'Yvel & Tristan' appeared on international music forums and everyone spoke with respect from the remix. They first released track was Gaelic on Eclectik Records also in 2004. They continued the work with The Quasar and they made two new tracks (Pillow and Lifted) exclusively for Chriss’ The Trip – Redirection of sound compilation. The track called Pillow also appeared on a compilation: the Global Underground 028 Shanghai mixed by Nick Warren. That was the one and only hungarian track so far on every GU mix series. From that time – thank to the success of GU compilation - their 'international fame' got to be bigger and bigger. They got to be invited to some foreign countries in Central and Eastern Europe in 2005, for example they could prove their talent on a czech electronic music festival in Brno at Boby Centrum in front of an audience about 6000. During this summer they made a remix for The Quasar - October track and it's been released on Foundation Records’ first EP. Mr. John Digweed became attached to the guys, because he played this remix in his show on Kiss FM exactly the same date as in 2004.
