2013–present: Changes

In 2013, they heard Pnau, a dance music side project originating from Sydney, sampling a children's choir on their track "Baby". In May 2013, Faul & Wad Ad released their deep house-style adaptation online, calling it "Changes". The track went on to become an international hit for them, topping the singles chart in Germany.
