Robert Copsey of Digital Spy gave the song a positive review stating: > Nobody does elusive DJ/producer better than Eric Prydz. Not only does he > take yonks between ~~albums~~ singles, but he also goes by no fewer than > nine separate monikers - our favourite being the oh-so macho 'Dukes of > Sluca'.

After beginning in jangly electronic > fashion, 'Niton' soon becomes a suitably uplifting techno-house rocket > powered by a piano riff not too dissimilar to 'Pjanoo's'.
