Plaid biography

Plaid sit right at the very heart of global electronica. In fact there's a very real sense in which Ed Handley and Andy Turner are the perfect encapsulation of what the electronic music of their generation was all about. As Plaid and as two-thirds of The Black Dog, they were central to the Artificial Intelligence movement of the early-mid 1990s: alongside their WARP stablemates Autechre, The Aphex Twin, B12 and allies like Richie Hawtin, Speedy J, Kenny Larkin, they brought new rhythmic variation, emotive melody and sensual textures to electronic music, creating a warm and welcoming counterpart to the white heat of the rave explosion. - Peel Session 2 (2019) - Polymer (2019) - The Digging Remedy (2016) - Reachy Prints (2014) - Scintilli (2011) - Heaven's Door (Soundtrack) (2009) - Tekkonkinkreet Remix Tekkinkonkreet (2007) - Tekkonkinkreet (Soundtrack) (2006) - Greedy Baby (2006) - Dial P (2003) - Spokes (2003) - Parts In The Post (2003) - P-Brane EP (2002) - Double Figure (2001) - Booc (2000) - Trainer (2000) - Futura Connect (1999) - Rest Proof Clockwork(1999) - Peel Session (1999) - Not For Threes (1997) - Mbuku Mvuki (1991)

  • What's interesting in Manchester?

    Manchester has become one of the largest cities in Britain over the past hundred years. Although Manchester is a city with a very rich history, the main focus of its development has always been industry. The center is almost entirely furnished with warehouses and factory buildings, entangled with a network of canals and old railway bridges. It is quite natural that no one gave such kindness to the reduction of production: in the former shops now open fashionable bars, in factory warehouses - designer shops, and under the old bridges "settled" nightclubs. It was for the active nightlife of the city and got its middle name - Madchester.
