The Futureheads: Decent Days and Nights (Max Tundra remix) (4.41)
Max Tundra was a great fan of the Futureheads album and delighted to be asked to remix this track. Knowing the band to be fans of minimalist music, he went for a Steve Reich-esque sound, with plenty of marimba.
Max Tundra is currently working on his third album for Domino Records, due for release in May.
