A reviewer for The Free Jazz Collective awarded the album a full five stars, and stated: "The four musicians... feel like like-minded spirits on this free and open album, full of slow and intimistic harmonic confrontations between their four instruments. The slowness of their hesitatingly exploring of and expanding on the created sounds gives a rather accessible listen, with hauntingly beautiful parts in it."[4]

Kurt Gottschalk of All About Jazz wrote: "The playing is strong throughout, but it's particularly nice to hear Campbell pull back. He plays flute for part of the set, but his muted trumpet sounds especially sweet against the woody lyricism of the rest of the band."[6]

Point of Departure's Francesco Martinelli commented: "The instrumentation is chamber-like, especially when Campbell plays flute, but the opening and closing quartet tracks... build up tension and energy, with Léandre getting as close as in any other recordings in her career to a kind of 'jazzy' rhythmic feel."[7]
