moj001 delivers to you five tracks from little nobody which fascinatingly branch through diverse genres and influences which here, on the one record alone, manage to represent this artists wide variety as well as nicolas. judging from this artists extensive bio, since hes delved through techno, idm, hip hop, jazz, disco, electro, etc, the wide-spectrum approach becomes evident. like many artists from the 1990s, little nobody brings with him the healthy baggage of music with a message, polemic subjects, thoughts, ideas, humor, you name it. this comes as an aural statement: music has the power to challenge us, the way in which we perceive the world, and points out things which could potentially generate change for the better — if we only stopped and considered looking that much deeper. so this record couldnt come at a better time, a period in which we live where everything is disposable and a numbed societys music attempts to reach out for our consciousness — posing for us the opportunity to stop and think.

berliners dirk leyers and nomad expressed their hard earned musical freedom in a dogma: the use of a roland tr-808 analog drum machine in every single track. they programmed the machine to lay poly-rhythms over multicultural drum and percussion tracks, fascinated -and sometimes puzzled- by its own characteristically sudden swing and accent changes, and named it: africaine 808 - their third and first female band member. in the first year of their musical joint venture, the three spent quite some time in remixing and editing some of their favourite african and island funk tunes, transforming the old gold into modern dj and dancefloor friendly tunes. the sound of organic grooves mixed with 808-beats and analogue synthesizer basslines became soon a trademark sound, and more and more samples got replaced by live played guitar, bass, organ and percussion. the trio experimented with different tempos and styles ranging from slow cumbia and exotic rumba themes to island-funk and percussive disco, electro and house. in spring 2012 they first took the project to another level, turning their tracks into a full live act at one of the vulkandance nights in berlin. today the project is growing and integrating guest musicians, drummers, percussionists and vocalists - for live performances as well as for recording in the studio. 100% sonic voodoo golf channel every time!
