The partnership is set to amplify the legacy of Sonique’s iconic catalog, bringing her defining records to the forefront through high-impact re-issues and fresh remixes from some of electronic music’s most influential producers. Armada's global team of dance experts across three offices in London, Amsterdam and New York City will support and manage the catalog. A force in the dance music scene for decades, Sonique is best known for her electrifying vocals and captivating stage presence. 

 

Her catalog includes a wealth of influential tracks and accolades, prominently featuring:

  • "It Feels So Good": Originally released in the UK in 1998, this track steadily gained momentum, particularly from US radio, leading to a highly successful re-release in May 2000. It soared to #1 on the UK Singles Chart for three weeks and was the third-biggest-selling single in the UK in 2000. In the US, it reached #8 on the Billboard Hot 100. Recent interest was reignited by a 2024 collaboration/rework by Matt Sassari & HUGEL featuring Sonique.
  • "Sky": Another cornerstone of her catalog, "Sky" further solidified her status as a global dance music icon, peaking at #2 on the UK Singles Chart. 

 

"We are incredibly excited to welcome Sonique's phenomenal catalog to the Armada Music family," said Maykel Piron, CEO and Co-founder, Armada Music Group. "Her music has left an indelible mark on dance culture, and we are committed to nurturing and elevating her legacy for a new generation of fans while continuing to engage her dedicated base worldwide. This long-term partnership reflects our belief in the enduring power and potential of her incredible body of work."

 

“Signing with Armada Music feels like the perfect next step in my journey. It’s a chance to honor the songs and moments that shaped my career while also opening the door to new music,” adds Sonique. “I’m proud to have a label with such a powerful dance heritage supporting both my catalogue and my future, and I feel energized, inspired, and ready for what’s ahead.”

 

This strategic alliance underscores Armada Music's commitment to investing in influential artists and their valuable intellectual property, ensuring their music continues to resonate globally.
