Stardust comprised producer Thomas Bangalter, DJ Alan Braxe and vocalist Benjamin Diamond; after the single's release, they disbanded, believing this created "a certain magic and mystery".


"Music Sounds Better with You" was initially released on Bangalter's label Roulé, followed by a wider release on Virgin Records, accompanied by a music video directed by Michel Gondry. It debuted at number two on the UK Singles Chart in August 1998 and stayed there for two weeks, becoming one of the UK's bestselling singles that year; it also spent two weeks at the top of the US Billboard Dance Club Songs chart.


It is certified platinum in Australia and the UK, gold in Belgium and silver in France. "Music Sounds Better with You" received positive reviews and has been named one of the greatest dance songs of all time by several publications.
