Release and reception

Warp Records first released Pattern+Grid World in the United Kingdom on September 20, 2010; its release in the United States was the following day. The EP's sixth track "Camera Day" was later sampled for rapper Killer Mike's 2011 song "Swimming", which was released as part of Adult Swim's single series.

Pattern+Grid World received widespread acclaim from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, the EP received an average score of 82, based on 10 reviews. The Wire wrote that while Flying Lotus pursued similar ideas on his previous album Cosmogramma, Pattern+Grid World "seemed to favor consistent, looping palettes and original electronics over the latter's ad hoc sampling". PopMatters critic Dylan Nelson found it "tighter, more balanced, more claustrophobic and more melodic" than its predecessor, while Larry Fitzmaurice from Pitchfork Media said it sounded "fully formed and precisely assembled". Robert Christgau from MSN Music was somewhat less enthusiastic, citing "Pie Face" and "Clay" as highlights while reducing his review of the EP to the description "notes for an aural jigsaw puzzle".
