question about Plaid - Double Figure

is it worth $15.00??? is it a good album? as in, does it
have more than just 3 or 4 really good songs?

a few weeks ago I bought the P-Brane EP and I can't get
enough of it...before then I never thought much of Plaid

I think you'd like it if you like P-Brane, download some
bits and see what you think....

recommend it.

It has 3-4 killer tracks in my view, the rest is nothing too
special. I would get the other stuff first. Maybe download
the album and see if youre into it.

i like it more than confield, geogaddi, and go plastic (of
course, they all sound different), i highly recommend you
purchase it.

yeah i'll do that now, download some full songs.

what gets me is that I can never find this album
used...NEVER. so usually that's a good sign.

Hi ggloom, glad to hear you like Plaid. Well, all albums are

recommended! Try also to find old Black Dog releases. Until

the period 89-95 Plaid and ken Downie formed "Black dog" and

is in the same style. It's was touching my soul sooooooo
deep in the early '90's. I recommend heartly the albums:
Bytes (FUCKING GREAT IDM!!!!!!!!!)
Spanners on Warp. On GPR you find "The temple of transparant

balls" and "Parallel". The early Black Dog EP's are great
too, but very high priced nowadays. Cheers

I LOVE SINCETTA... track 19 or something like that... really
spacey & just floatin... picture yourself on a lot of
laughing gas & then starting to cry! :)

okay I bought it. first listen through was nice, lots of
really good songs EXCEPT track 2...wasn't working for me.

music like this is what I need right now so I'm extremely
happy. DANCE MUSIC!

track 2 sounds very medieval to me, it had to grow on me but
i think all the tracks are wonderful now. glad you bought
it, good choice.

New Family is awesome. One of the best songs in recent
memory.

I'd recommend it to anyone on the planet (and twice on
Sundays) It is to RPC what RPC was not NFT (kapeesh?) :-)

Squance and New Family alone make it worth about 323425
dollars/euros/quids etc. :-) New Family....wooooooow!

But seriously, thinking about it, there's not a single dud
on it...and also (rarely for this genre...whatever the smeg
it's called!) it's STRUCTURED LIKE AN ALBUM....from the way
Eyen glides in, to Manyme, what a closer! Buy It Now! :-)

P.S. My name's not Ed or Andy...

at the very least you should download and preview it... and
then decide whether to buy it.

The first track alone is worth the price of admission to me.
Cripes ahmighy that's a pretty song.

Squance is one of the only tracks you listen to from start
to finish on the Warp website as well :-)
