Critical reception

John Bush of AllMusic gave the album 4.5 stars out of 5, saying: "It's experimental hip-hop being done on a level reached by few producers out there."[1] Olli Siebelt of BBC called it "an album that is as experimental and cutting edge as anything in Warp's back catalogue."[2] Sam Chennault of Pitchfork gave the album a 7.3 out of 10, saying: "Seed to Sun works best when it's either quirkily repetitive or resigning itself to funky experimentation."[4]
