At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, DJ-Kicks: Peggy Gou received an average score of 78, based on 5 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[8]

Steph Lee of Resident Advisor gave the album a mixed review, writing, "Gou's DJ-Kicks, though filled with some stretches of sleek club music, struggles to find an overall thread to hold it together. The personal angle is not enough. Each of these tunes may hold a special significance in Gou's life. But to the listener, they don't quite reveal the story."[14]
