Critical reception

The Plain Dealer thought that "though tracks like 'Lust in Space', 'Bitch Universal' and the fidgety 'Get in Me' are so airy in parts that they seem free of gravity, they've also got a vigor that gives away the duo's industrial roots."[3]

AllMusic wrote: "Pulling sounds from a variety of different styles, from drum'n'bass to ambient and big beat, they assemble the bits and pieces in a reasonably appealing fashion, yet with no real understanding of the form."
