Critical reception

Malvika Padin of The Line of Best Fit felt that the "11-track production builds as the culmination of Elderbrook's life experiences and consistently ascending career graph", calling it "euphoric and sombre in equal parts" and a "companion on good days and bad" with "finely crafted music". Reviewing the album for Clash, Sidney Franklyn wrote that "The more we delve into Why Do We Shake..., the harder it becomes to justify Kotz's insistence in writing exclusively vocal-driven dance music. Lyrics range from the bland on 'I'm a Fool' and 'All My Love' to the downright bizarre", going on to say that "it's towards the end of the record that Kotz's potential as a producer really begins to shine".
