Critical reception

Billboard wrote that the act "that scored big with "More & More" offers an equally sparkling gem from its noteworthy "Love Is Not Sex" set. Track travels down a slower, more R&B-flavored path, matching deep-voiced male rapping with sultry female belting at the chorus." The Network Forty noted that "here's yet another Pop-influenced Trance/Ambient number from Captain Hollywood. The vocals are very catchy and fit nicely over the hypnotic synth lines." Charles Aaron from Spin commented that the "Eddie "Flashin'" "Fowlke's "Club Dub" is state-of-the-art progressive house—almost subliminal organ, stringent percussion whacks, melody via synth hunt-and-peck, lyrics stripped to a simple mantra. Room to breathe or sweat it out. The female vocals are either determined or resigned---I can't decide—which gives the groove its cryptic allure."
