“Plock” by Plone

"Plock" comes from For Beginner Piano, the 1999 debut album British electronic band Plone made for Warp. Mike "Billy" Bainbridge, Mark Cancellara and Michael Johnston wrote it, and they produced it themselves under the band's name.

The album around it split the critics. AllMusic's John Bush gave it 4 stars and pointed to synthesizer and tape-music pioneers Perrey & Kingsley as the best reference point, The Independent heard warm electronica with a global outlook, and Pitchfork's Ryan Schreiber, much less charmed, handed it a 5.4 and called it music you could have on for hours without noticing.
