Château Flight
In 1996, DJ Gilb'R, who then a programmer at Radio Nova, received a demo cassette from I:Cube. Gilb'R was impressed, so he made him the first artist of his newly created label, Versatile. By 1997, Versatile had released several of I:Cube's records. Chaix and Cohen eventually began to collaborate as Château Flight (French: Château Flight, lit. 'Castle Flight'). Their first album, Puzzle was released by Versatile on October 30, 2001.
