Critical reception

Andrew Ryce of Resident Advisor commented that "The LP boils down a generation's worth of London music into a restlessly creative mix of dance music, infused with emotions both celebratory and mournful." Noel Gardner of The Quietus stated, "For You and I is, predominantly, neither high-minded nor solemn: an honest-to-goodness joyous blast of unreasonably pure electronically generated melodies and spindizzy beats pulled from a great many strains of club music."
