never heard of this guy(s?) before, it's pretty good, someone i know said it's like plaid, but from what I've heard of Plaid i don't like him...... or am I mistaken ??? |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
i thought a guy from blackdog is involved with plaid? |
||||||||
|

Ken Downie, Ed Handley and Andy Turner was The Black Dog between 1989-1995. TBD is still alive tho, leaded by Ken but a lot of people are involved. It's like a parallell to Gescom. Ed and Andy is aka Plaid. |

ahhhh cheers Phob. |

Black Dog Productions - Bytes freakin rules. I love that album soo much. Now if only Ed would still make tracks under Balil.... Phob, do you know if their other aliases are dead perhaps? And how can you not like Plaid ward!!!! Something is definitely wrong with you.... |

revpersona- is Bytes any good? i saw it in the store, but wasnt sure or not to buy it :0/ |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
oh, man it's great!!!! My favorite Warp release to date..... if you have access try d/l Balil - 3/4 Heart Balil - Merck I would highly suggest it....I had to order it from Warp since it's pretty hard to find('93) Trust me, pick it up, you won't regret it. |

i only know the tracks from the peel sessions but they did not impress me at all... then again, those are from a long time ago... |

revpersona--check yur mail. |

Peel Sesions are different tracks....I believe those went onto Spanners? Anyway, anything by them after Bytes wasn't very good. The only song I liked by them after Bytes was 'Psil-Cosyin' off of Spanners. |

Also, on Plaid's official website they have some MP3's to d/l of their aliases. There's 2 songs by Ed under 'Balil' and one song by Andy under 'Close up and Over' check them out. |

I haven't seen any new tracks by Balil/Tura/Atypic lately.... so I guess they are "dead for now". :) |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
I see I see. Well, perhaps they might give it some thought, since they've gotten what they wanted out of the Trilogy of albums. Hopefully, you'll be able to let us know if anything comes to light phob? |
||||||||
|

of course! |

i thought this was gonna be about the led zepplin song called black dog. and it freaked me out because i'm listenign to that song right now. yep. le fin. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
......I wonder about you :] |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
How dare you associate Black Dog with Led Zeppelin on the xltronic messageboard? ;-) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
their music is paracticaly the same :) |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
i got Trainer, my first Plaid, a few months ago and even though I like it, it failed to really impress me that much. Is their album work more representative ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
BYTES IS AN ABSOLUTE CLASSIC! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
uviol: try "Rest Proof Clockwork", "Not For Threes" and "Double Figure". "Trainer" is more like a compilation of early/unreleased tracks and does not really hit modern Plaid standard. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
IMO. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hehe thanks phobia! I suspected as much.. since it was a compilation and all. I remember hearing 'Booc' off of Routine and thinking it was better.. anyway: I will give them another chance and pick up one of those albums. thanks again.. |
||||||||
|

I loved Trainer....guess I'm a sucker for a lot of early 90's stuff. Damn right Cortex. It's Essential. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it is good stuff & black dog productions ep is wikked, with the Balil tracks on it..... kinda like Ceephax in a wierd way..... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
bytes is great, abstract geometric percussion or something. complex like squarepusher, only in a looped organized way. old cd with dated sound but that doesn't stop it from being entertaining. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes sir, it might be dated, but the melodies and beats produced on this album are very much entertaining. In a way, I wish today's music still had this feeling that Bytes gives off. |
