In brief, it's one of the grooviest albums you'll hear--Saudi Arabia, here, or anywhere else. [Fall 2008, p.100]

All Music Guide

Koushik has a few contemporaries doing something similar (Nobody, Four Tet, Caribou), but apart from Caribou's Andorra, none of them has come up with an album as good overall as Out My Window.
