"Call & Response" appears in the 1998 film Blade, in which the track is being listened to, on headphones, by the villain, Deacon Frost (Stephen Dorff), whilst he searches a library's archives; the song did not appear on the film's soundtrack.^[6]

Critical reception

Robert Christgau praised the "beats developed in perceptible patterns, prudently minimalist middle registers, fun vrooms and slams as musical content", and called it "light instrumental music at its diverting best".^[3]

Fact ranked it #96 on its list of the 100 best albums of the 1990s, writing that it's "a thrilling document of smacked-out, misanthropic jungle for stalkers, serial killers and ne’er-do-wells".^[7]
