Reception

Source	Rating
AllMusic	[2]
Select	(4/5)[1]

In a contemporary review, Select gave the album a four out of five rating, calling it "Lusher and more human than the ultra-minimal machine music he does now, these tracks from '90-'92 remain exemplary demonstrations of tension generated by restraint."[1] The review noted that tracks like "Psychobase" anticipates tracks from The Chemical Brothers and ""Fuck You All MF" pre-dates the official investiture of jungle by years"[1]

AllMusic gave the album a four and a half out of five star rating, noting that the album "leaves off some crucial cuts by dint of label affiliation, much of Beltram's most significant early work first appeared on R&S, making this CD/LP a perfect introduction to his influential sound."[2]
