Critical reception
Cameron Macdonald of Pitchfork gave the albm a 7.3 out of 10, saying, "Krush's use of space and texture remain not just formidable, but remarkably relevant."[6] Tim O'Neil of PopMatters wrote: "This album is merely an indicator that Krush has mastered, as few before him have, the subtle art of true cultural assimilation through the prism of electronic music."[5]
