"Channeling new age spiritualism, the California synthesizer musician's new album is a tender and warm-hearted offering, well-suited as an ointment for the dullness of life in isolation".

"Though it finds Smith at her most reserved, The Mosaic Of Transformation feels like a breakthrough, melting the pop-savvy hooks of her past records into one gorgeous, rarefied sound, as invigorating and smooth as electricity flowing through circuits".

"Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith (...) laver elektronisk musik, så det lyder, som om det er nymfer og havfruer, der står bag. Hendes synthesizer er blød og duvende, og dens toner flyder harmonisk ind og ud mellem hinanden til en understrøm af uendelige kluklyde ... Hendes lydunivers træder vande et sted mellem det neoklassiske og det ambiente ... Hun synger også, eller rettere messer - hendes sang er underlagt rytmen og tonerne i musikken, mens lyrikken opstår som gentagelser, mumlen, utydelige og forstrakte ord".

"Cosmic synth rituals from Orcas Island: As on 2016's 'Ears' and 2017's 'The Kid', Smith remains a transporting devotee of new age, handling the aesthetics as well as the sound design in a way which disdains any sense of pastiche: "The Spine Is Quiet In The Center" is one especially yoga-friendly vibration. But there are also echoes of Sakamoto and Julia Holter in these elaborate meditations, and even, on the ecstatic chorale of 10-minute closer "Expanding Electricity", the beatitudes of Björk circa 'Vespertine'".
