A multi-instrumentalist, he performed and recorded with Christian Death Featuring Rozz Williams "The Path Of Sorrows" (1993) and "The Rage Of Angels" (1994) as well as Rozz Williams solo material "Every King a Bastard Son" (1992) and "The Whorse's Mouth" (1996).

Paris went on to found the experimental band EXP in 1992 with Ryan Wildstar, Doriandra Smith, Rozz Williams and Ace Farren Ford.[3] EXP is perhaps the most incestuous band in the Family featuring Rozz Williams, with a wide variety of members, ex-members, collaborators and guest musicians. The entity has one self-titled, full-length release, and also a limited edition handmade 7 inch single.[4]
Also collaborating with Premature Ejaculation and elaborating upon boundary-pushing performance art, he is featured on the album "Wound of Exit" (1998), The group's themes remained avant-garde throughout this time, focusing on the bizarre and taboo. Paris also contributed to Erik Christides Bloodflag - Stain (Mk I) (1998 - Daughters of Darkness).
He toured with Gitane Demone following his work with Penal Colony's "5 Man Job" Tour [5] alongside EXP collaborator Justin Bennett, who around that time started to get into a lot of experimental noise, branching out from EXP to put out an all ambient noise album with Paris under the name "Face" (A Picture Of End - 1997). Eventually the concept behind Face evolved into the ambient project "The Implicate Order" (Volume One: Enfolded 2002).[6]
Involution is an experimental electronic group made up of CEvin Key (Skinny Puppy) and Paris Sadonis (Christian Death/Shadow Project). They released one self-titled album on Tone Casualties Records in 1998.
From the inside cover of the CD: “We come from the center and circumference of everything, radiating, drawing forth the Divine Influx. Together through our cosmic conceptions, we sublimate Omnipresence for all existing in and out this mirror of matter; who trusts and believes. ‘Cause when our brainclouds glisten - and our eyes glide aside - our frequencies mesh - and through our vibes, all consciousize. It is done unto you as you believe. What it does for us - it must do through us. Trust the invisible - for it is the sole cause of which is visible. Nothing moves but mind.”
