"Can of Drone" is the third guest release for this label by mystified, and the material presented within explores some new sonic territory that departs somewhat from previous work. The overall sound is bolder and noisier, and successfully blends elements of noise, dark ambient and home-taped sound in a way that cleverly avoids easy classification. The sounds are sometimes lush and dense, other times sparse and gritty, but all throughout this release and its many moods, the sonic perspective that we have come to enjoy rewards its listeners consistently.

The music of mystified has grown and changed over time, exploring many different styles and techniques, yet something distinct has always shone through, displaying as honest a document of his progress as I personally have ever encountered. It is my hope that it will be as much of a pleasure for you to follow along with this next development of the mystified sound as it is for this label to release it. With these tracks each displaying their own personalities it is hard to recommend only one or two standout tracks, but with repeated listens those who do will find favorites that resonate and speak directly to them. Which one will be yours? Feel free to comment.
