on their tenth album, expect to be exhilarated by energetic bangers, bright melodic visceral rhythms and hypnotic, enveloping textures to create perhaps their most cohesive and direct album to date.

The innovative duo, Ed Handley and Andy Turner, have been expanding the realm of electronic music as Plaid since they diverged from The Black Dog in the early 90s. In 2019, Plaid stand alongside the likes of Aphex Twin, Autechre and Nightmares on Wax as mainstays of the Warp label as it reaches its 30th anniversary, celebrating achievements in music like few others. Their adventurous and playful approach has people drawing comparisons to the likes of Mark Bell, Arca, Haxan Cloak and Daniel Avery.
