Critical reception

Wrote MacKenzie Wilson of Allmusic in a review for the album, Oxygen is "enjoyably cheeky in delivering her own dance-pop formula." Calling the album synthpop, the review also praised the "minimalist approach" of the production, which led to a "fluid, full sound well-suited for both dance and indie rock fans." Also, "she adds a bit of sauce to the new-millennium electroclash stage and celebrates the delicious design of classic new wave." [1]
