Factor X are Dublin lasses Jennifer Byrne and

Sandra Cooney who fuze influences as diverse as techno and Joni Mitchell to create thumping and atmospheric dance anthems. Unfortunately the production and arrangements are less than imaginative while the lyrics, not as unimportant

in dance records as some people think, need work. Please don’t rhyme ‘temptation’ with ‘intention’ or ‘saninty’ with ‘reality’. It’s obvious. The good news – Sandra Cooney has an excellent voice that calls to mind Kate Bush and the radio mix and club mix both hint at a real talent that might yet out. Hope so.
