Thomas Smith of NME wrote that the "tracks offer sharper, more focused songwriting and production that bridges the gap between her grungey earlier work and a potentially pop-orientated future." He noted that the EP was "a project that's rewarding for both listeners and, by the sounds of it, the artists involved."[2]
Pete Tosiello of Pitchfork described 'Cologne' as "coy and syrupy" and said that 'He Gets Me So High' had a "buoyant arrangement."[3]
