'' gave the song a positive review stating:
"It doesn't take a genius to figure out just how significant Chase & Status's contribution to electronic dance music has been. The duo – consisting of Saul Milton and Will Kennard – were instrumental in the rise of the dubstep-meets-pop movement following their contributions on Rihanna's 2009 album ''Rated R'', while their last record boasted an all-star lineup and garnered critical and commercial success. It's a tack they are looking to continue with their new single 'Lost & Not Found', albeit with lighter breakbeats and bigger strings. "We're gonna take flight/ Paper planes getting rolled up/ Our dreams hit the fan/ The pain of getting older," vocalist Louis M^ttrs laments, before floating into a chorus more breezy than Brighton Pier. It might not be a total reinvention from the duo in an industry bursting with fresh EDM talent, but it's more than enough to keep them at the forefront of their game." .Chase & Status ft.
