- Little Nobody is the electronic music production alias of Andrez Bergen. An expatriate Australian formerly from Melbourne, who currently resides in Tokyo, Japan, Bergen is an author and photographer, as well as a music, movie, and anime journalist for the Daily Yomiuri newspaper, and Tokyo Correspondent for Anime Insider, Geek Monthly, and Impact magazines. In the past he has also written for Mixmag, ToyFare, Remix, Wax, The Age and Herald Sun newspapers, Vice Australia, and Cyclic Defrost magazines, and he occasionally edits subtitles for Japanese animation like Tokyo Marble Chocolate. Bergen is a co-founder and ongoing manager of Melbourne/Tokyo label IF? Records, which was launched in 1995 and has since featured an array of Australian (and especially Melburnian) artists like Zen Paradox, Voiteck, Little Nobody, Artificial, FSOM and Honeysmack, amidst a rotating international roster that has included Si Begg, Dave Tarrida, Luke's Anger, Tobias Schmidt, Jammin' Unit, Khan Oral, Wyndell Long, Captain Funk, Biochip C and Thomas P. Heckmann. "I started IF? Records principally because I was receiving all these great demo tapes from local artists for my show on PBS," Bergen told journalist Terry Rance in Inpress magazine in 1997. "No-one here was putting them out, and rather than sit around griping about it, I thought I'd try and help them myself. " Bergen produces his own music not only as Little Nobody, but as a member of other production outfits Schlock Tactile, DJ Fodder, Curvaceous Crustacean, Slam-dunk Ninja, Atomic Autocrac vs Admiral Anderision, Dick Drone, and the LN Elektronische Ensemble. He currently lives in Tokyo with his wife, artist Yoko Umehara, and their daughter Cocoa.
