Tom Schulte of AllMusic credits the lounge and jazz influenced material, such as Chemlab's "Suicide Jag" and Frank Sinatra's "Summer Wind", as being the high point of the album.[6] Alex Steininger of In Music We Trust called the album a "a powerful, seductive breath of life that will allow you to never look at the originals in the same light again."[7] In writing for Ink 19, critic Matthew Moyer commended Jared Louche for expanding variety in his musical craft while remaining true to his aesthetic.[8] Despite criticizing some song choices as being lackluster, Chris Best of Lollipop Magazine was mostly positive in his review and said "these selections are reinterpretations that are done well enough to not invoke the originals."[9]
