His breakthrough came with the EPs Blood Angels and Zauberstab der Liebe, which were featured in several Techno DJs' "Best of 2002" playlists. In June 2003, Starlight released his debut album Rip It!. Following this, he released multiple remixes and singles, including "John's Addiction pt. 1 + 2" (2005) and "Road Rage" (2008).
