Plaid doesn't come from the AI days of IDM. Black Dog does, but we're not
talking about Black Dog. Autechre comes from the AI days of IDM and look
how much they have progressed. And yea, Plaid's cds do sound similar, I
find it hard to believe someone could fool himself into thinking they
don't. Anyway I like Plaid alright, and while I wouldn't recommend them
over Mouse on Mars, I'm still glad I bought them, I guess.
