In a review for PopMatters, Wilson Neate praised Atlas' mixture of "Arabic vocal styles, Middle Eastern pop and Western electronic dance beats."[4] Pitchfork Media reviewer Mark Richard-San said that The Remix Collection was "just about perfect from the dancefloor perspective" and named the remix of "Amulet" by 16B as the album's best track.[3] Rick Anderson of Allmusic wrote that the album is "as good as one would expect."[2]
