Critical reception
Ben Peterson of AllMusic gave the album 4 stars out of 5, saying, "while Dosh's effervescent soundscape often veers unpredictably from ambient and dreamy to manic and scattershot in a single stroke, it somehow remains unified, transfixing, and above all, highly listenable."[3] Roque Strew of Pitchfork gave the album a 7.7 out of 10, saying: "Bristling with jazzy forms, infused with a global soul, Wolves and Wishes turns hip-hop's philosophy of bricolage into a glitchy, raucous, genre-spanning achievement."[7] Sara Miller of Paste said, "Wolves and Wishes presents upbeat, unique compositions that allow the listener's mind ample time to wander freely."[6] She called it "Dosh's most fully realized and cohesive work to date."[6]
