intro
Latest album from LA-based and UK-born experimental musician and composer Mark Van Hoen, which would make perfect Science Fiction soundtrack music
Transistor sonics and harpsichord drones begin this dreamy digression, which is like early 1990s wound down minimal dance music from Belgium. The sort of album that is prone to be overlooked, 'Nightvision' flirts with irrelevancy, all in spite of its obvious productional qualities. To much greater effect it challenges the imagination on the last three tracks, 'I Love To Fly', 'A Wish' and 'Sensing The Close', which bears a certain 'Star Trek' quality.
