Exclaim! gave the album a positive review, calling it "Nintendo music intended for dancing, or folk singer songs remixed by an electro pop-loving hipster." They especially praised the final track on the re-release, "We Are Over Here".[5]

gollark: Although that would still *kind of* be rebooting.

gollark: I imagine you can just use "hibernation" to the USB stick.

gollark: As an alternative to either using a run-from-memory-y live USB or repartitioning *very carefully*, you could just use a VM with access to the USB stick.

gollark: My Arch (btw) live USB just has a regular Arch install, but on a live USB.

gollark: The live ISOs use a compressed non-writable filesystem image of some sort mostly.
