Yep, you read right (above). A new EP by me, finally admitting to the misdemeanor instead of hiding behind one of the 23 other production aliases I have. Ahem. Weird.

And I can't hope to sing my own praises here, or recommend pushing you in the direction of this music, without feeling sheepish and a bit silly, so here instead are the direct links, in case you get inspired anyway:

There's also DJ/producer feedback and a bit of a promo spiel thingy at Sydney label, Hypnotic Room, who were encouraging and indulgent enough to get behind me on this one - see http://www.hypnoticroom.com/hroom021.html

It reads thus...

"Welcome to the Disquoteque! With more than just a slight change in the spelling of the word, Andrez Bergen (alias Little Nobody) channels a childhood bombarded by disco and hitches it to Status Quo, then filters the concoction into darker '70s stuff by Black Sabbath, and the cut-up mentality of Cabaret Voltaire.

Disquo rules the equation, and Bergen's original mix starts out as hardish house, before breaking down into an acid line and joyfully distorted Rhodes piano, glitches, and funk-style vocals. Think insanely catchy dancefloor-fodder with a twist, like a musical hurricane than grabs the unsuspecting and would quite possibly stun our disco-dancing parents.

Deep Night grabs that hurricane in his own mix, tames the beast, tweaks it, and produces a wonderfully solid, funky counter-balance that grooves and smooths in booty-shaking new ways. This is terrific house/tech/disco for an enlightened new generation.

Merian Cooper strips everything right back and goes for the hypnotic tech-minimalism of Basic Channel. It's the chill-out groove after the storm; the wind-down number the two previous tracks have deemed essential. Thouht-provoking, innovative and sensation in its own right, this is electronica for the future of now."

...yep!!
