One of Saunderson's most famous contributions to Inner City was its 1992 hit, "Pennies From Heaven. " The late 1990s were rather inactive, and it was only in 2000 that Saunderson began to record with new acts. In the early 2000s, she worked with the American techno band Octave One. She provided guest vocals on two of its single releases, "Blackwater" and "Somedays. " All of these projects were large club hits and had great critical success, especially the former. Saunderson also featured on tracks on Octave One's debut album. Additionally, she provided vocals for singles by Slam ("Lie to Me"), Dave Lee ("You're Not Alone"), and, more recently, Notenshun ("Move a Little Closer").
