Critical reception edit
Caroline Sullivan from The Guardian commented, "Dance music often fails to credit women vocalists adequately, so this jungle trio's decision to call themselves after their singer is laudable. It's appropriate, too, the Babe's ladylike tones being the key to their pop-friendly tunes."[9] Pan-European magazine Music & Media wrote, "Former champions of the UK dance charts, these three musicians from London have crossed over to the UK chart big time. Which is not surprising, considering they make intelligent, innovative dance music."[10] A reviewer for Music Week rated the album five out of five, adding, "Innovative mixes of trippy textures, blippy electronics, strong melodies and polished vocals have given Baby D three huge hit singles. This debut album delivers more of the same."[11]
