Production

Style

Pitchfork described PS I Love You as "an entry into the ambient glitch world of Mille Plateaux." Allmusic noted that it was a "significant departure from the manic breakbeats and blatant noise barrages of Kid606's preceding Down with the Scene" and also compared it to the "clicks + cuts sound of Mille Plateaux circa 2000".

Release

PS I Love You was released on October 17, 2000 on vinyl record and compact disc by Mille Plateaux. In 2001, a remix album was released titled PS You Love Me which contained remixes from PS I Love You.

Reception

Exclaim! gave the album a mixed review, finding it "Almost too mellow at times to be one of [Kid606's] records, the music really is a treat to listen to". The review described the song "Twirl" as a track that "never sounds fully complete through its six minutes" while "Sometimes" was the "absolute gem of the album". Allmusic described the album as "a refreshing change" from kid606's previous works.

In a review to the remix album PS You Love Me, Pitchfork Media stated that with PS I Love You, "Kid proved to the world that he had processing and compositional skills to rank him amongst the heavy hitters of the genre. Either that, or he proved that glitch music was easy to make."
