A Glimmer of Forgotten Ancestors "Whether helping to mastermind the sensual interweaving of guitar and sampler with Seefeel or scraping together the eclectic mix of desolate soundscapes and overpowering distortion of Locust, Mark Van Hoen is a stylistic chameleon leaving an indelible mark on the face of electronics. The Last Flowers From The Darkness is an odds-and-ends collection of tracks recorded between 1992 and 1996 that runs the gamut from ethereal drum & bass to cryptic slabs of nothingness interspersed with sampled dialogue. What makes Van Hoen's work so engrossing is his attention to detail, especially in how he makes the most minimal pieces sound lush through the addition of ghostly melodies and broken voices. For example, Van Hoen manipulates a collection of sampled voices on '1967' until they resemble an alien language, then combines them with expressive noodling in the vein of Aphex Twin's ambient works. er of Forgotten Ancestors' is a driftwork of homeric proportions, majestically claiming both Talk Talk's Laughing Stock and Brian Eno's Music For Films as spiritual forefathers. The Last Flowers From The Darkness possesses a cinematic scope, as each track suggests a wide range of emotions while conjuring up abstract visuals for your mind." [Bill Cohen, Alternative Press]
