Mystified
Now Is Not Forever

Single RU 2012 on 45 Echoes Sounds label
Electronic (Ambient, Drone)

Release note: ‘Now Is Not Forever' was once a much shorter piece. Thomas of mystified used a software tool to stretch it until it was longer, and added lots of other sounds. As a result, it sounds like what is - a massive drone piece, with details placed carefully in the foreground. Strange, huge, and very musical. Thanks to tgbts at www.tgbts.com for his e-bow sounds. Artist info: Thomas Park has been involved with music for his entire life. He was trained in classical and jazz music as a teenager, and played the trombone and piano. His listening habits changed in the late 1980's, and Thomas became interested in electronic music. After several years of writing techno as the band AutoCad, Thomas was fortunate enough to collaborate with Robin Storey of Rapoon. This project helped Thomas to evolve into the ambient / drone band Mystified. Mystified has found considerable success, both through online and physical releases, and is known for being proficient, creative and prolific. The music of Mystified is mainly of an atmospheric nature. Sometimes for Thomas less is more, making his music ideal for listening while working, sleeping or doing other things. The music of Mystified especially explores texture, consistency, and a type of variety that could be called subtle. This is not the utopian ambient of the typical soundscape artist. It is serious music for serious people. Mystified music has found many purposes, including scores for films, online and terrestrial radio shows, festivals of aesthetic, political, and other varieties, informational cd-roms, spots on many scores of compilations, and quite a few independent releases.
