Medical Records continues it's fascination with all things Mark Van Hoen, this time presenting the sole album release by Autocreation entitled 'Mettle'.

.
Autocreation was formed in 1992 when Mark Van Hoen was roomates in West London with the other members Kevin Hector and Tara Patterson. Kevin and Tara as DJ's at the University of London; Tara had recorded with The Hafler Trio prior to this The 3 lived in an apartment block that was full of acid house devotees, DJs, and house producers. The 3 friends spent a lot of time in cutting-edge London clubs which inspired and influenced their music. A remix they worked on - Seefeel's "Plainsong" became the blueprint the Autocreation sound, as well as feeding back into Seefeel's sound on their own subsequent material. Autocreation were heavily influcenced by contemporary dub techno such as Basic Channel, Mika Vanio as well as more pure techno such as Kirk Degiorgio and Jeff Mills.
