2nd SORT - the group has existed since 2015 until now. The number and composition of the members changed. Nevertheless, it had little effect on the sound and general message of the collective. Tense electronics, sharp and at first glance pessimistic lyrics cause a feeling of discomfort and often force the listener to rethink what they so diligently avoid. Despite this, or maybe even because of it, the events organized by the musicians of the band have a therapeutic effect, as well as regular listening to their compositions individually, which has been noticed more than once by their regular listeners. During this time more than ten albums have been released, as well as many joint works with different musicians. The band regularly performs in Moscow and St. Petersburg.

A Bit Advanced Music A collective from the capital of the Black Earth region, Voronezh. The guys experiment with trip-hop and art-pop sounds, performing songs in English and Russian. A subtle, warm, almost watercolor soundscape, synthetic basses, atonal transitions, the noise of waves, and at times dance rhythms all combine in a fresh yet intimate sound. The music immerses you in kind and pleasant nostalgic feelings through a noir atmosphere, unhurried melody development and synthesizer pads, as well as soulful vocals and slow drums. "In recent years, we've had a fairly free format for working on releases. People come and go: vocalists, musicians, beatmakers. Everyone has scattered across different cities. But on the other hand, that's also interesting—more contacts and collaborations, more diverse visions, and something new is born from that," says Pavel Karmazin, leader of A Bit Advanced Music.
