==Critical reception== Calling it a "little love letter of an EP," Kate Taylor of muzic.net.nz said the EP "smacks of the delay being due to his perfectionism and care to produce a solid, lasting debut effort."<ref name="Taylor">{{cite web |last1=Taylor |first1=Kate |title=Benny Tipene - Toulouse EP Review - New Zealand Music Articles |url=https://www.muzic.net.nz/articles/reviews/48818/benny-tipene-toulouse-ep-review |website=muzic.net.nz |accessdate=22 March 2019 |date=18 March 2014}}</ref>
