In a retrospective review, Andy Beta of Pitchfork said, "Over 40 years after its initial release, the composer's pioneering work pairing computers with live players feels not only prescient but also refreshingly optimistic."[10] Nilan Perera of Exclaim! praised the record, saying, "What both pieces excel in is a rich, organic, complexity that on the surface may be considered "ambient," but eschews that convention in the most artful way. This recording has achieved landmark status in New Music and it's easy to hear why."[9]
