    Tipped Bowls feels like a minor record, partially by design. It never grabs you by the throat. It never gives you something totally new to consider. It's also highly listenable, and has a way of slipping in through the side door that I admire.

    Erikson falls in-line with dreamy progressives like Caribou and Four Tet, generating ten new compositions that sound as beautiful as they do bouncy.

    All in all, Tipped Bowls is a very nearly excellent piece of accessible electronica. Nearly excellent.

    Beautifully done, with great attention to textural detail. [Sep 2012, p.83]

    It's surprisingly mellow and restrained.

    Taragana Pyjarama is unstimulating, oddly soothing in an anesthetized way, hypnotic in the most guileful sense.
