Their follow-up album, Unlearn, had a completely different sound. Gone were the DJ/techno stylings and sampled guitar tracks; instead, Unlearn was consisted of melodic song-writing and lush electronic soundscapes interspersed with instrumental tracks and ambient music, drawing strong influences from the likes of Depeche Mode.
The band's third album, Spiritual Machine, was completed by 1997 but was never released by the band's label, Wax Trax! Records, who were by this time owned by TVT Records. The experience led to the subsequent disbanding of Psykosonik.
Daniel Lenz went on to produce a single album under the band name Hednoize with a new vocalist, Brent Daniels (aka Free). The album saw a bit of a departure for Lenz in regards to the sound and feel of Unlearn. Opting for a more industrial sound, the album was a hard hitting debut. Unfortunately, label support was minimal, involving mainly a website and a handful of LA club shows. In 2008, Daniel Lenz released his debut solo album, Stuck In a Dream on MP3 download.

The lyrics of Psykosonik's song "It Has Begun" captures an intense moment when the Mortal Kombat tournament officially commences. The opening line "Let Mortal Kombat begin" serves as a verbal cue to initiate the tournament, setting the tone for the upcoming battles. The repeated line "It has begun" hammers home the gravity of the situation and adds to the overall sense of anticipation and excitement.
The verses go on to address the chosen warriors who have been summoned to fight in Mortal Kombat. They are reminded of their purpose in participating; to defend Earth from destruction. The name "Mortal Kombat" suggests a competition where only the strongest mortal warrior will survive, lending to an air of danger and potential tragedy. The repeated "welcome" at the end of the song feels like a final invitation to embrace the challenge that awaits.
