Critical reception

edit

Larry Flick from Billboard wrote, "Any opportunity to feast on the vocal prowess of Mazelle is well worth taking—even when the track she is given doesn't quite match her talent. The Rapino Brothers concoct a pleasing, but familiar Italo-house groove that benefits from the use of techno-influenced synth bits. A hit overseas, U.S. spinners may find the "Angelino Ambiento" mix intriguing."[1] Simon Price from Melody Maker said, "The Rapination record is just STACKED. I swear, at one point, I hear the formidable lungs of Kym Mazelle ask, How can I make you rub me the right way?"[2]
