Plaid is a British Electronic Music duo comprised of Andy Turner and Ed Handley, taking their name from the different interweaving threads of Plaid cloth.

They have collaborated with female singers Mara Carlyle, Nicolette and Björk , and have released records on the labels Clear, Peacefrog, Black Dog Productions , and Warp Records . Aside from their own material, Plaid have done extensive Remix work for many other artists, including Red Snapper , Björk , Goldfrapp , and The Irresistible Force .
