AllMusic | [1] |
Ned Raggett of AllMusic awarded the EP three stars out of five. He considered "Human Behavior" the highlight of the collection, calling it a "masterpiece" and a high quality showcase for Underworld. Raggett also said the closing piano performance added "unexpected charm and power" to the remix.[1] He called The Sabres of Paradise's "Endorphin" remix of "One Day" a "slice of loveliness", preferring this version to the group's "Springs Eternal" version of the same song. Raggett complimented the fushion sounds of Black Dog's remix of "Come to Me" as well as the "nicely strange" loop and the a cappella vocals in "The Anchor Song".[1]
