Sonique music biography continued...

began singing as a child and cut her first single, "Let Me Hold You," for Cooltempo Records while she was still a teenager. She later teamed up with DJ Mark Moore as one half of the dance-pop duo S'Express, co-writing and singing on tunes like "Nothing to Lose" and "Find 'Em, Fool 'Em, Forget 'Em," both of which were charting singles in the U.K. and were featured on S'Express' 1990 album Intercourse. During the following few years she accompanied both Moore and her childhood friend Judge Jules to their DJ gigs to study the crowds. She eventually signed to one of Simon Belofsky's companies Serious Records, where her first single was "I Put A Spell On You." At the same time, she became DJ-in-residence at Club Manumission in Ibiza, where she worked between 1997 and 1999. In 1998, she came to the attention of UK promoters/record label Fantazia and was asked to mix one of the discs on their album Fantazia British Anthems Summertime. The album was certified gold in the UK. Sonique also released her own album, "Hear My Cry," in 1998. When it was re-released in 2000, the hit single "It Feels So Good" topped the UK chart for three weeks in May. After 14 weeks in the Top 40, it became the UK's third best-selling single of 2000. In 2001, Sonique quit DJing to focus on her singing career. Her second album, On Kosmo, wasn't release until 2006, and was not commercially successful. Still, Sonique didn't scrap plans to tour Europe. She continues to record and perform, thrilling dance music fans throughout the continent.
