Looks like I'm too lazy to post anything except for these lil' mini mixes. This one was made for VodkaEd as part of our weekly 5-track trade. Usually, I don't mix mine together, opting instead for finding songs on the interwebs; this time I stuck to my collection, grabbed a few tracks and kept them continuous, though I let each song play through for the most part. I don't think there's an overriding theme - it's a random grab bag. It is suited for VodkaEd though as it's probably one of the only mixes out there that has Throbbing Gristle mix into The Flirts (and Ed is infamous for his extreme musical juxtapositions).

I threw together a short, nostalgic mix yesterday—'90 to '92 bleeps n' beats, with a couple modern tracks included for good measure. Enjoy the flashback.

Reposted from Pontone.pl

Celebrating the release of a new great album (“Where Is The Truth”) and the Seefeel reunion, Pontone digs through Mark Van Hoen’s back catalogue and found many musical treasures.

Pontone's Mark Van Hoen Mix

PLAYLIST:
1 Mark Van Hoen He Run Far (“The Warmth Inside You” Very Friendly, 2004)
2 Mark Van Hoen Another Light Casts Its Will (“The Last Flowers From The Darkness” Touch, 1997)
3 Locust I Feel Cold Because Of The Things You Say (“Truth Is Born Of Arguments” R&S, 1995)
4 Scala A Category (“Compass Heart” Touch, 1997)
5 Darren Seymour & Mark Van Hoen Thursday’s Light (August 20th, 1977) (“Aurobindo: Involution” Ash International, 1994)
6 Locust All My Sadness (“Natural Composite” Apollo, 1994)
7 Darren Seymour & Mark Van Hoen Tema (V/A “Invisible Soundtracks 1″ Leaf, 1997)
8 Scala Broken Down Beauty (“Compass Heart” Touch, 1997)
9 Mark Van Hoen Since Tomorrow Will Come (“The Warmth Inside You” Very Friendly, 2004)
10 Mark Van Hoen You & Me Inside (“Playing With Time” R&S, 1999 )
11 Mark Van Hoen Real Love (“Playing With Time” R&S, 1999)

Mark Van Hoen has always defined and stayed true to his own sound, and as a result, has amassed a timeless discography that manages to remain unique due to the fact that he creates his own exquisite production techniques, never copying what's currently out there or replaying what has already been done. His music isn't easily categorizable, a marker of true artistry in my book.

For the past 10+ years, followers of Van Hoen have learned to be a patient group - there's been 2 6-year gaps between albums (as Mark Van Hoen), owing to his other production projects as well as numerous life/career interruptions (getting dropped from his label, getting his house demolished, starting a family, and most recently, moving to the states). His own patience, along with his ability to cast the right collaborators to work with has allowed him to grow as an artist while continuing to shape his own sonic legacy. Fans will be very eager to hear his latest opus (out now on City Centre Offices), knowing that what Mark has crafted, has been honed over the last few years, until he felt he arrived at something close to the truth.

Here's my own mix of MVH for your listening pleasure:
Robotsound's MVH Mix

PLAYLIST:
1 Annie Williams Ruby (“Ruby” Apollo, 1995)
2 Scala Be Together (“To You In Alpha” Too Pure, 1998)
3 Sylvania Oval (Locust Mix) (“Galax Trax” Stereophonic Elefant Dance Recordings, 1996)
4 Locust When We Coincide (“Truth Is Born Of Arguments” R&S, 1995)
5 Locust It Is Called Peace (1985) (“In Remembrance of Times Past” Apollo, 1994)
6 Locust Dreams (1984) ("Needle” Apollo, 1994)
7 Seefeel Plainsong (Sine Bubble Embossed Dub) (“Time To Find Me″ Too Pure, 1993)
8 Locust 1966 (“L'inachevé / Unfinished” Sub Rosa, 1995)

Stream Where Is The Truth.

Watch MVH's first state-side performance, which took place in his newly adopted hometown of Brooklyn a couple months back here.

It has been a while since I posted a proper, hastily-recorded mix. This one is imbued with Japanese themes [robots/technology/ramen/harajuku/geisha/etc.] and spans the last three decades of electronic dance music. I recommend preparing yourself some quality sashimi and chilled sake as a fitting accompaniment.

お楽しみください！
O tanoshimi kudasai!
