'''''PLUS''''' is the fifteenth studio album by [[Autechre]] released on [https://warp.net/ Warp Records]. It was simultaneously announced and released digitally on October 28th, 2020.<ref>https://bleep.com/release/209219-autechre-plus</ref> The CD and vinyl issues were later released on November 20th, 2020.


Despite being labeled as an album, [[Sean]] considers ''PLUS'' to be an EP, similar to ''[[Oversteps]]''’ companion release, ''[[Move of Ten]]''.

Trivia

  • PLUS's catalogue number's digits add up to 14 (3+3+8) in the same way as SIGN (3+2+9). This could imply that both SIGN and PLUS are considered to be the 14th album, or that they are part of the same project.
  • In one of the Twitch AMAs, Sean remarked that PLUS should've been an EP with a few tracks removed, but that they "got greedy" and made it an album. [5]
    • When asked which tracks should've been removed, he stated "the mellow synth ones" (likely referring to "lux 106 mod", "ii.pre esc" and "esle 0"). [6]
  • As with SIGN the Japanese CD cover is minimally different compared to other versions. In PLUS's case the background has been darkened slightly and the yellow parts have been recolored green. [7]
