"Great effort. Great remixes. Great album." – Music News [3]

"This second re-imagining rightly uses its predecessor as a launch pad while keeping the Floyd's uniquely ambivalent overall mood, but allows the re-mixers ideas to take flight." – Angus Taylor, BBC Music [4]

"A highly desirable set of beatmakers and dub masters are handling the remixes here..." – David Jeffries, All Music [5]
