Product Description
Content Introduction Plaid, the originator of [WARP], which is celebrating its 30th anniversary, has released his landmark 10th album, "Polymer"! Plaid, a flagship artist of [WARP], which has long led the electronic music scene alongside Aphex Twin and Autechre, has released his landmark 10th original album, "Polymer"! In addition to "Maru," which has been released in advance and features a beautiful melody over a repeating mechanical beat, and "Recall," which swings a fetishism for weathered textures with an industrial beat, as well as "Ops," which loops a silent refrain with artificial echoes over a D&B rhythm, and the closing track, the extremely nostalgic pastoral electronica "Praze," Plaid's bold efforts to update electronic music while maintaining his own identity are undoubtedly the sound of [WARP] and Plaid. The Japanese CD edition of this album, which will be released worldwide on June 7th, will include liner notes and a bonus track, "Sol." About the Artists PLAID | Plaid The innovative duo Ed Handley and Andy Turner branched off from The Black Dog, where they belonged in the early 90s, and have since expanded the realm of electronic music since starting their career as Plaid.
