David Browne of Entertainment Weekly recommended the compilation to listeners intrigued by Play, adding, "No blues or gospel samples here, but the same spiritual-techno vibe is evident in brilliant early singles like 'Go,' sighing-keyboard instrumentals, and a hefty share of genre-crossing cuts from 1995's everlasting Everything Is Wrong."[3] John Bush of AllMusic was complimentary of the material itself, which he felt showcased Moby's "continuing excellence in a number of genres", noting that the tracks from Everything Is Wrong and Animal Rights in particular "sound much better in this format, divorced from the rock flame-outs that often surrounded them on the original albums", but criticized the exclusion of his seminal earlier work and the lack of rarities.[4]
