In 1989, the group released its debut album, ''[[Original Soundtrack (album)|Original Soundtrack]]'', which featured a line-up of Moore, [[Pascal Gabriel]], Jocasta, Mark D, Linda Love, and Michellé. The album consisted of slightly longer versions of S-Express's "Theme", its follow-up hits "[[Superfly Guy]]" (UK No. 5) and a cover version of [[Sly and the Family Stone]]'s "Hey Music Lover" (UK No. 6; its b-side was remixed by minimalist composer [[Philip Glass]]).<ref name= "ITOWN">{{Cite episode |title= But Is it Music? |series= In Their Own Words; 20th Century Composers |network= BBC |date= 2014-03-21 |number= 2 }}</ref> By the release of the second album ''Intercourse'', the act was reduced to a duo of Moore with new vocalist and [[DJ]] [[Sonique (musician)|Sonique]]. Although not as successful as its debut, ''Intercourse'' spawned several mid-charting UK singles and club hits, including "Nothing to Lose", co-written with [[Martin Gordon]], as were several other tunes<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.allmusic.com/artist/sexpress-mn0000827139/songs|title=S'Express | Songs|website=[[AllMusic]]|access-date=27 June 2021}}</ref> on the record. Sonique, already a successful DJ, eventually embarked on a solo career and produced one of the biggest club hits of the late 1990s ("[[It Feels So Good]]").
