Critically, the album was generally less well received than Northern Exposure: Expeditions. Spin stated that despite a "few stellar moments, [Communicate] is ultimately a let-down". LAUNCHcast, too, described Communicate as "boring and lackluster...stalled in a monochrome world of dead beats",[1] though Communicate matched Expeditions in the general reception of fans.[citation needed]Communicate is their latest DJ mix album together, not counting the remake of Renaissance: The Mix Collection for the original album's 10th anniversary in 2004.
