A review from PopMatters of the album states that "if you’re looking for a kind of chill-out, downbeat album that you can throw on and ignore, then you could do far worse", but notes that "there really is some talent at work here, just not enough to turn the ordinary into extraordinary".[2] Michael Paoletta of Billboard stated that it "grooves along at a relaxed pace, which makes it perfect for a Sunday afternoon or some post-club, chilled-out bliss".[3] Justin Kleinfeld of CMJ New Music Report described it as a "trippy disc that's readymade for listening to by the campfire".[4] It was named album of the month by DJ Mag.[5]
