"Radar Maker" is a song by Scottish Post-rock band Mogwai from their 1997 debut studio album, Young Team.

[edit] Overview

It is the first of three short piano instrumentals throughout Young Team, all played by Brendan O'Hare. The other two piano instrumentals are "With Portfolio" and "A Cheery Wave from Stranded Youngsters".

[edit] Musical structure

The piano melody is in the major key and is quite gentle and childlike. After a minute and a bit, the piano stops, and ambient noises are heard in the background, which quickly fade out.
