Critical reception


Jon O' Brien from AllMusic described the album as "echoing the sleek, electronic rhythms, melodic vocals, and lush, ethereal production of BT and Delirium [sic]", whose tracks are a "combination of uplifting club anthems and hypnotic instrumentals".[8] BBC's Andy Puleston wrote that together with singles "Air For Life" and "Alone Tonight", Tri-State was a "sterling effort" to create a record that defines trance music the same way Faithless and Orbital did with their respective genres, but nevertheless "does little to deviate or expand on the brief".[9]

In a 10-year-anniversary revisit of the album, Christina Hernandez from Dancing Astronaut dubbed "Good For Me" as "one of Above & Beyond’s top pieces of all time", and noted Richard Bedford's vocals on "Alone Tonight" whose "voice on it will continue to be listed among Above & Beyond’s most memorable compositions". She also called "Can't Sleep" as a "winning track from Tri-State", having been nominated to the top three trance tracks of 2006 on A State of Trance.[2]
