Reachy Prints is the seventh studio album by British electronic music duo Plaid released 19 May 2014 on Warp Records.[12][13][14][15]

Release

Upon announcement of the album, Plaid released the track "Hawkmoth", and several weeks later revealed the single "Tether". "Tether" was accompanied with an interactive website that acted as a sort of music video that could be mutated by mouse and keyboard input from the user. Plaid continued marketing this track by releasing the stems and initializing a remix contest, the winner of which would receive a package of most of their releases on vinyl records as well as a MIDI instrument that would be used in live performances of the album.
