1990-1995
In 1990, after their high school graduation, The Nonce began recording its first album. This album would however go unreleased (due to creative differences with their production company) until the master recordings were rediscovered in 2017. The following year, the album was finally released, appropriately titled ''1990''. In 1992, the duo signed with Wild West Records and released its first single, “The Picnic Song,” but it was to be nearly two more years because of internal wrangling with the label until the duo would release its biggest single to date, “The Sight of Things and Previously Unreleased Material
After ''World Ultimate'' came an EP, '' The Sight Of Things'' in 1998. In 2005, previously unreleased material from the Nonce was issued in the form of two compilations: '' Advanced Regression'' and '' The Right State of Mind''.Sach Solo material

In 2018, Sach published a book of poems and paintings entitled ''Rhyme Book Bibliomancy''.
