Following Villalon's departure from this project, both Villalon and Sweetbox composer and producer Rosan Geoman worked together once again to release albums under Villalon's own name, Jade Valerie. After two album releases under this name, two additional side-projects were formed entitled Eternity ∞ and Saint Vox, both releasing a self-titled album. Saint Vox presented a collaboration effort between Villalon's vocal and lyrical work, Geoman's arrangements of both original and sampled classical pieces, and the stylings of Japanese violinist, Emiri Miyamoto.
