This album is really great. I'd say it sounds *much* more like a downtempo
Plaid. Beautiful melodies with the odd (well-placed) live instrument. The
beats aren't too much like Autechre IMO, the emphasis is much more on the
other elements in the track with the rhythms further back in the mix. Cross
Plaid with Plone and you're pretty much there. Recommended.
