"At 43 minutes long, Human Energy is so dizzy and quick that it's hard to find your bearings. It makes for a fun, if exhausting, ride. One of Stewart's core talents-the thing that made albums like Room(s) so wonderful-is keeping his keen sense of emotion and melancholy in otherwise hard-hitting dance music. There's almost none of that contrast here, just delirious happiness from beginning to end. It's hard to complain when listening to Stewart's illustrious sound design and arrangements, but in his quest for positivity, Human Energy limits itself to just a fraction of the emotional spectrum".
