James Hyman from Music Week's RM Dance Update rated the song five out of five, declaring it an "obvious dreamhouse successor" to Robert Miles' 'Children'.

The production was really clean for that time and the saw tooth synth lead was really basic, but the record did really well on the dance floor.
There are a lot of trance records from that time that sampled that typical reversed crash cymbal, but I believe BBE were the first to do it.
