Critical reception
Michael Slevin of The Skinny gave the album 4 stars out of 5, saying: "The songs on this album are eclectic yet symbiotic, with breakbeat convoluting with jaunty showtunes in one corner, and low key electro-tinged hip-hop flirting with dancey pseudo-jazz numbers in the other."[8] Tim Sendra of AllMusic gave the album 4 stars out of 5, saying, "Love to Make Music To may not be the best Daedelus album, but it's not far from it -- and that makes it just about the best electronic pop you are likely to hear in 2008."[1] Colin Buttimer of BBC called it "an enjoyably varied album, full of texture, emotion and playful ideas."[2]

gollark: Irrelevant.
gollark: I mean, school somewhat bad, but not studying any maths and whatever also bad.
gollark: People are fine at a few "physics" things they encounter frequently and *have* to know, but don't know general mechanisms and are bad at modelling other situations.
gollark: This actually works even for people who have studied physics a bit who get a question without convenient numbers; they fall back to Aristotlean mechanics a lot of the time.
gollark: People doing physics intuitively are *really bad* at it.
