Plaid have just released a digital-only single entitled Faster, which was recorded to showcase Apple’s new Logic Studio music software suite. The six-minute piece is the first new recording from Plaid since the release of their 2006 audio-visual feast Greedy Baby and the soundtrack to anime film Tekkon Kinkreet, currently still only available on import only. The DVD of the Japanese animated movie was released at the end of September, and the film will be premiered in the UK on Thursday 29 November at the Taliesin Arts Centre in Swansea, Wales, as part of Swansea Animation Days (SAND).

The band have also announced two UK dates, the first one on Saturday 20 October 2007, at Ginglik, London (DJ set), and the second on 2 November at Spectrum, Nottingham (live).
