Press Reviews " A melting Trip-Hop groove turned out in Goth/Darkwave finery including succubus vocals and rising, stalker-movie keyboards. Claustrophobically dark and sultry dance music," Listen.com December 1999. "May Cause Spontaneous Sexual Combustion...Giovanna and Desiree will lure you into an erotic groove...definitely exotic," Plunge Magazine, November 1998. "Textured, Pretty, Seductive Music, Lush and Stark," Music Connection, July 6, 1998. "Dual Eden firmly places their Hip and Heavy Rhythms into a Sensual Context that is Unforgettable." LA Girl Guide, January 1999.
