Reception
Heather Phares of AllMusic gave the album 4 stars out of 5, saying, "Elisabeth Esselink continues to recycle bad music into good, sampling the kitschiest, cheesiest records in her shop and shaping them into her distinctive musical vision."[1] S. Murray of Pitchfork gave the album a 7.6 out of 10, saying, "Pick Up is a strong developmental achievement in the right direction for Solex, and should stand as inspiration for used record store owners the world over."[2]
