As the musical climate quickly shifted over to grunge, Pretty Boy Floyd and their glamorous counterparts quickly faded into the woodwork while the next series of trends took hold.

In the early 90s Majors worked for Sony records as an A&R man, producing some of their biggest jazz and pop artists including Keiko Matsui, Paul Taylor, Soul Ballet, Dave Koz, Royal Crown Revue, Young Dubliners, Chronic Future and Sprung Monkey.

A few years subsequent to his initial endeavors, he established several enterprises, among them Highway to Hell Studios—a cutting-edge recording studio—and Artists Worldwide booking agency, which presently manages over 60 acts.

Majors spent the first decade of the new millennium writing for several TV shows, commercials and movie soundtracks like Shocker, Switch, Agent Cody Banks, Karate Kid, The Hills, Pacific Heights, Chevrolet, Cadillac, Kawasaki and Suzuki to name just a few.

In 2007, he released his first solo album, Sex Drugs n Rock n Roll. In , 2014 he released the thrill kills CD.
