"The tubercular atmospheres and wheezing bass of the record's best tracks", wrote Peter Shapiro in Drum 'n' Bass: The Rough Guide (1999), "showed that the Down Tempo beat crew was capable of evoking something other than their own ganja-soaked hipness." In 2015, writer Daisuke Kawasaki ranked Strictly Turntablized at number 38 on his list of the "100 Greatest Rock Albums of All Time".
