"Mystique Youth" is the work of San Francisco (by way of France)-based composer and producer, Lavender. "Mystique Youth" embodies the aesthetics of minimal electronic, the cinematic landscapes of post rock and the organic qualities of experimentalism. Having recorded each song with only five, single-take layers, using little midi and very limited post processing, Lavender welcomes transience and adopts the philosophy that imperfection is indeed perfection. His ethereal tracks echo the work of artists such as Tim Hecker, Alessandro Cortini, Deru, Pole, Eluvium, Vladisav Delay and Martin Gore. The 10-track cassette includes two remixes of the track, "Paper Planes", by Scott Snee and Den Vibrerande Staden.
