Max Tundra

Appeared on Sun 25 Jan 09 @ The Black Box | Belfast (with Crayonsmith + Barry's Electronic Workshop)

There are more ideas crammed into the 41 minutes of Max Tundra’s third album than most bands manage in their whole careers. Parallax Error Beheads You, the third Max Tundra LP (on Domino Records) is a masterpiece of micro-melodies and sound-bytes; a triumph of splicing, dicing and editing. It’s an intricate mosaic of sounds and genres, some of which you might recognise from the last 30 years of pop, rock, prog, disco, funk, techno, rap, metal and soul or from Max inventing an original one himself. The attention to detail, and the sheer speed at which ideas whizz past you in the mix, will leave you stunned.

In between furiously mixing and matching and inventing new futures for pop Max Tundra has also remixed the likes of Missy Elliot, Mogwai, The Strokes, Franz Ferdinand, Futureheads, Pet Shop Boys and Von Südenfed).
