"Warrior" achieved a No. 1 ranking in the UK Club Chart, and also did well in the top 40, entering at #19. "Voodoo" also reached top 40.[1] He also released ambient trance singles on Lost Language under the name Accadia.

Woods became widely known for the songs "If U Want Me" (2003), featuring Australian model Imogen Bailey, and "Solex (Close To The Edge)" (2003), featuring vocals by Juliette Jaimes, known best for her Holly Valance cover, "Kiss Kiss" (2002). Both of these singles also had an associated music video. They peaked in the UK Singles Chart at #46 and #52 respectively.[2]

Michael Woods' sister, Marcella Woods, is also a singer, known for her cooperations with Matt Darey on "Beautiful", "Liberation" and "U Shine On". Her vocals also appear on "So Special" (2005), which was the result of cooperation between Michael Woods and Judge Jules. She has also joined Michael with Out of Office and released their second single, "Break of Dawn", to follow up the 2007 single, "Hands Up".

Michael produced the track "Changed the Way You Kiss Me" for singer & rapper Example which debuted at No.1 in the UK singles charts in June 2011.
