Background and release

"Salt" was first included on Oh Land's fifth studio album, Family Tree, which was first released on 3 May 2019. Prior to beginning a small concert tour in promotion of the album in September, the singer announced the release of Replanting Family Tree, a remix extended play (EP) of four songs from Family Tree in addition to the previously unreleased track "When a Hawk Comes By".[1] The first track released in support of the EP was the Arthur Moon remix of "Salt". It was sent to various digital retailers on 4 September 2019.[2]

Composition and lyrics

Ken Scrudato from BlackBook found the Arthur Moon remix off of the Replanting Family Tree EP release to be well aligned with the progression of autumn, noting its use of "electro-handclaps, jittery beats, and piercing synth-blasts".[3]

Critical reception

In his album review of Replanting Family Tree, RJ Frometa from Vents listed the Arthur Moon remix of "Salt" as his sole recommendation to his readers.[4]
