BrooklynVegan reviewer Bill Pearis stated that with A Hum Of Maybe, Apparat "turns writer's block into a lush, introspective return"; he added that the album "feels lush, sophisticated, and cinematic", comparing it to Thom Yorke's solo work and, at its weaker moments, to Coldplay's "more soporific side".[7] Stephen Dalton of Uncut gave the album a score of six stars out of ten and described it as "fusing granular samples and glitchy beats with chamber-folk arrangements and tender emo-pop vocals".[6]
