Critical reception
Andy Kellman of AllMusic described the album as "modern, melodic IDM -- home-listening electronic music that pulls from ambient techno, hip-hop, and the more challenging end of dubstep." Dom Gourlay of Drowned in Sound wrote, "Full Circle is an engaging, if complex record that certainly exudes its creator's public dislike of genre classification far and wide." Laurent Fintoni of Fact stated, "Full Circle is as good a debut as you could hope for from a talented producer that is likely to continue to grow and impress."
