Reception

Editors at AllMusic rated this album 4 out of 5 stars, with critic Joshua Glazer writing "thank goodness for Fabriclive.15" for showcasing "an hour of sensual nu-jazz from the strongest names on the market". [1] In Resident Advisor , Karl Palma characterized Sawhney's compilation as "Niting takes Fabriclive and gives it a distinguishable ethnic flavour while not straying far away from the Fabriclive philosophy - break beats, hip hop, drum'n'bass with elements of eclecticism prevalent throughout", with reference to volume 12 from Bugz in the Attic.
