In 1999, Polydor Records rejected Monaco's follow up album, the self-titled Monaco, due to the radically changing trends in music at the time. Papillon Records agreed to pick up the album, though the planned single release of 'I've Got A Feeling' was recalled in the UK due to sample clearance issues. Despite favorable reviews, the album was released with almost no promotion at all. Tensions were mounting, and in 2000, following a 'disastrous gig at the Eclipse Festival', Potts and Hook parted ways. Potts would go on to form RAM, and Hook would join a reunited New Order.
Despite the split of 2000, Hook and Potts have remained on good terms and since reformed Monaco more than once in support of one-off charity events. On 21 March 2007 they performed a selection of Monaco, New Order and Joy Division tracks in support of the Nordorff-Robbins charity at the Hard Rock Cafe, Manchester. Later that year and most recently, they played a similar set in support of Oxfam's 'Oxjam' event at the The Ritz, Manchester on 28 October. On both occasions they were joined by Rowetta of Happy Mondays on vocals for the Joy Division track 'Insight' and Hook's son Jack on additional bass.

Music for Pleasure is the debut studio album by rock band Monaco, a side project of New Order bassist Peter Hook. It was released in 1997 and reached No. 11 in the UK. The album sold more than 500,000 copies worldwide, with its first single, 'What Do You Want from Me?', often mistaken for a New Order song.[2] The band recorded one more album before dissolving in 2000.
'What Do You Want from Me?' was one of two hit singles in the UK. It reached No. 11 in March 1997, while 'Sweet Lips' hit No. 18, in May.[3]
The cover is designed by Peter Saville and the cover photograph was taken by Sam Taylor-Wood.[4]
