Shenfeld's work explores electronic, popular and experimental music and their intersection.^[2][4] Writing for The Guardian, music journalist John Lewis described her work as "invoking the transcendent", writing that it is "music that uses 21st-century technology to conjure up images of liturgical chants and ancient temples".^[2][3][5]

Her album In Free Fall (Thrill Jockey, 2022) was number one on Stereogum's "10 Best Experimental Albums Of 2022".^[6]

In 2022 Shenfeld scored two short films, Piazza Futura by Kevin b. Lee and the documentary The Flagmakers by Cynthia Wade and Sharon Liese.^[7]
