Critical reception
The album received mediocre to negative reviews. Daily Music Guide describes the album as "amazingly organic for being so exactingly constructed" and compares Caspa to a classical composer.[2] NME writes that the album "falls a little short of the wobbly swagger of his cohort’s club hits."[3] URB states that "his foray into putting out a full-length has produced what half-step usually procures; the all-too-well reaction of immediate mediocrity."[4]
