Louis Patterson of BBC Music said of Skip-IJ, "Proof that the Asian Underground can be both fun and thoughtful."[1] Gaurav of AsianVibrations.com rated it 7/10 and said of the album, "State of Bengal gives us an album that you can listen to whenever you are in a dubbed out dnb mood. This is a true classic in the making (barring a few speed bumps)."[2] Indian Electronica said, "this album defies modern dance-floor convention with its wonderfully refreshing and bouncy rhythms - paradoxically sounding like a jazz throwback to break-beat employing an aesthetic which draws from Afro-Brazilian and Indian influence..."[3]
