It might be good to clarify what you mean by the Bergen Bridge philosophy. Marty is famous for two things:

A) A range of conventions and Law of Total Tricks approach that emphasises showing the extent of your fit immediately, and taking a slower approach with non fit hands

B) Very, very, very aggressive pre-emptive style.

For reference : http://www.bridgewor...&f=samppsx.html

For example, green against red, Marty dealt and opened a weak 2S (systematically opened as a transfer pre-empt with 2D) with the following:

S: J 9 x x x
H: 8 x x x x
D: Q x
C: x

This is a pretty extreme style, so it may be worth clarifying if you mean A, B or both.
