John Bush of AllMusic gave the album 4.5 stars out of 5, calling it "a set of electronica that's nearly as challenging as Autechre's relentlessly academic beat manipulation but just as funky and instantly gratifying as a Fatboy Slim flag-waver."[2] David Morris of PopMatters described it as "meticulously constructed and flawlessly engineered music".[1]

In 2017, it ranked at number 15 on Pitchfork's "50 Best IDM Albums of All Time" list.[10]
