Q Factors opens with the sonic trip beat chaos engine that is "Drowning Mind" mixed by Marc Challans. "Hownow" calms things down with an atmospheric trip hop vibe, a mix by Challans/Amp Studio. "Lost Love Cries", a song by Karine Charff, is given an electronica twist by Chris Smith under the name of Blaubac. Guitar riff grooves return with "Loveflower", given a second airing in this collection in remastered form, a mix by Amp Studio. Donald Ross Skinner supplies the mix of "Just Get it", an edgy stand-off with guitar washes and a lonesome harmonica haunted by Karine's vocals.

"Push N' Hold" is a mix by Amp Studio, followed by the ambient electronica of "When & Where", a mix by Yellow6.
