Resident Advisor's Bruce Tantum wrote, "Nightshift is stuffed with great tunes, but the real joy is Brewster's sequencing. He builds the set with a studied patience, its pleasures coming more as subtle hills than obvious peaks and valleys."[2] Andy Beta of Pitchfork wrote, "The novelty of the Late Night Tales series of compilations stems in part from hearing what bands themselves like to hear, but in tapping dance curator Bill Brewster for a second compilation in as many years, Late Night Tales’ newest iteration of the series has a proper selector at the helm. Nightshift pulls from the late-‘00s era of nu-disco, offering the slightest variations of a restricted sonic palette."[3]
