Critical reception

Matt McDermott of Resident Advisor stated, "Beyond the title-track, Yes mostly does away with the classy, tech house-style snap prevalent on 2018's Heat." Gabriela Helfet of The Vinyl Factory wrote, "Contained within are slow-bubbling IDM, house and techno tunes to get lost in, honing on the sparkle of a piano loop or synth ascension to incantatory effect – they're the kinds of tracks that inspire dreaming of better days." Miles Bowe of Stereogum commented that "Yes has now become the best new entry-point into his mysterious world."
