Critical reception

CMJ New Music Monthly wrote that while "Size still rocks harder than most junglists, he rarely vaults over the genre's limitations here."{{Cite web|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=LyoEAAAAMBAJ&q=Touching+Down+roni+size+2002&pg=PA73|title=Reviews|work=CMJ New Music Monthly|date=November 12, 2002|publisher=CMJ Network, Inc.|via=Google Books}} Billboard called it a "fluid set that moves from track to track with little or no delineation."
