Review

"If the pharmaceutical journeying of writer Hunter S. Thompson seems allied, somehow, to the rituals of club culture and its music," mused critic Chris Johnston for Rolling Stone, "then look up this grab-bag of sounds and postures by Little Nobody, aka Melbourne producer/DJ Andrez Bergen... A deluded, entertaining quest, in this case through the electronic music of the '90s. There's a bit of everything here, all fighting for control." [1]
