There are at least 4 projects with the name "TBA": TBA (1): Natalie Beridze, also known as Tusia Beridze or TBA, is a female electronic musician and short film director from Tbilisi, Georgia. She is also known as a member of Goslab - a Georgian art laboratory. Tusia has worked with Nika Machaidze aka Nikakoi/erast, Thomas Brinkmann, Wechsel Garland and Post Industrial Boys, who have used Tusia's vocals and lyrics in most of their songs.

It all started when Sofie, age 15, borrowed an old synthesiser from a friend. Intrigued and beguiled by its puzzling menu layout and strangely labelled functions, she was destined to ask "what does that button do?". Thus began a long and sordid love affair with electronics and music. Visit Sofie's myspace page for more info. http://myspace.com/sofieloizoumusic

In the year 2000 the band Modular was formed, whose name was taken from the mythical Moog Modular analog synthesizer series (which was similar in appearance to a phone switch crossed by kilometers of cables that allowed the user to create infinite possibilities of electronic sounds of the space age). At the end of the 1960s and beginning of the 1970s albums featuring these synthesizers were produced in abundance, known as 'Moog Records' or 'Moog Music'. Soundscapes of retrofuturistic and fantastic feeling were created, sprinkled with kitsch touches.

For a few years now Birmingham artist Brian Duffy's Modified Toy Orchestra has been making electronic music that derives from the modification of toys and releasing it on his own label Warm Circuit. He modifies the circuitry of electronic toys to create instruments that make 'new' and unique sounds.
