Plaid - Quick Emix ********** AllMusic Review by John Bush When Ed Handley and Andy Turner left Black Dog Productions in 1995 to record strictly as Plaid, they unfortunately jettisoned the sound of their own classic material. The style they embraced was organic but chilly, propulsive but also airy, and more heavily melodic than any other techno act of their time. Four albums later, in 2003, Plaid released Spokes amid the self-started hoopla of a return to the classic sound of pre-BDP-breakup classics like Mbuki Mvuki and Scoobs in Columbia. (Ironic, though, that the duos previous record, Double Figure, glossed on the old formula as well.) Fans anxious to hear tracks minus the steel drums and overworked melodies wont be completely satisfied with Spokes; nearly all of this territory has already been plotted with more detail and flair on Handley and Turners first three records. That said, its a simple matter of deciding which of these retreads have traction anyway and which are so thread-bare theyre in danger of dissolving completely. On the plus side, listeners will be able to rely on Upona and Zeal, particularly excellent examples of the ghostly electro that first launched the pair back in 1995. On the other extreme, though, Cedar City and Get What You Gave are rewrites so blatant they sound as though theyve already appeared on at least two Plaid LPs previously. Worst of all, Spokes has many more examples of the latter than the former.
