Reception and release

Infinite was well received by a wide range of critics. DJ Mag rated the song an 8/10 saying, "Notaker brings out the big guns with ‘Infinite’ for a record full of chunky grooves and epic electro melodies that signals his arrival as a progressive force to be reckoned with." [12] Toby Reaper of Dancing Astronaut described Notaker's style in Infinite as "spacey, adventurous buildups and heavy, technical drops into a progressive sound that thrives in the mid-tempo range". [5] Timmy Kusnierek of Your EDM stated "Infinite centres around the obscure rumbles of a far-off nebula, waxing into a space-faring adventure as a classic progressive synth leads the way", further stating "Overall, the entire production creates a celestial atmosphere that’s too rich to ignore". [2] Petar Lazarevic of We Rave You stated "Infinite, combines spacey overtones sounded out by metallic, hollow atmosphere with a thumping, deep bassline and a simplistic melody into a punchy house offering". [3]

Brian poles of This Song Slaps described Infinite as a song that plays more as a story than a piece of music, stating "the progression through the song through additions and omissions of sounds and going from hard from the first drop to a softer and more melodic final drop tells the story of traveling through space in a great way". [9] John Carr of Global Dance Electronic described the production as a cross between "the dark realm of French Techno and the ethereal atmosphere of trance for a sound that can fit into a myriad of DJ sets and stand out as an epic moment". [7] Joe Hoffman of Dance and Rave stated "Infinite, is a gloriously dynamic blend of melodic and dark, and Progressive and Bass, and is sure to win a lot of fans over with its fluid progressions".
