Advanced Art from Tampere, Finland, are one of the pioneers of Finnish electronic music, originally active from 1985 to 1995. Musically the band evolved from the early synth pop demos to a more EBM or industrial direction. The creative core of Advanced Art consists of Jana (voice, lyrics) and Vince (machines, melodies). Other members were Pete aka Sam B, Otto A aka Auten, Jarkko Tuohimaa aka Factor, Reeta, and PW. Advanced Art was formed in 1985 when old pals Jana and Pete met Vince through a mutual friend. First demos were made under the name Abstract and some live appearances...

Emanuele and Fulvio met for the first time at parties in Italy. Both with the passion of creating their own beats they decided to begin creating music togheter and so Advanced Dealers was born. After a couple of years of hard work, spending days and nights in studio, finally they got a chance with Cenobite Records! But this is just the beginning and more beats are going to come soon! .
