Análisis (en inglés) - :
Originally, {^Tiny Dynamine} and {^Echoes in a Shallow Bay} were released as a pair of EPs in similar covers within a few months of each other in 1985; the songs were actually recorded during the same sessions, but the band wished to release them without the hoopla of a full album. This was probably a wise decision, as listening to the two EPs together on one CD, it's clear that these eight songs are a step down in quality from the inspired heights of {^Head Over Heels} and {^Treasure}. There's not much difference in sound between songs like {&"Pink Orange Red"} and earlier gems like {&"Five Ten Fiftyfold,"} but there's a certain ethereal quality lacking in these recordings, a tiredness that suggests {$the Cocteau Twins} had taken their early sound as far as they could go. (Unsurprisingly, their next release, 1986's {^Victorialand}, was a complete departure.) That said, {$the Cocteau Twins}' early sound was amazingly cool, and although they're lacking in invention, the thick atmospherics and swirling vocal melodies of their earlier records are here in spades. As background music, {^Tiny Dynamine/Echoes in a Shallow Bay} works a treat; it's only when one pays closer attention that the disappointment sets in. ~ Stewart Mason, All Music Guide
