Critical reception

Forbes said "The 12-track body of work epitomises art, tradition and determination. The transcendent LP takes audiophiles through enchanting vocals, celestial sounds, classical piano, cinematic beats and dreamy melodies, staying true to Lastlings' philosophy when making music as it strives to create escapist moments that allow listeners to delve into another dimension and use their imagination."[7]

Triple J said "Siblings Amy and Josh have delivered a deeply personal record filled to the brim with hypnotic, euphoric and dance floor ready electro anthems."[10]
