Alongside
The Ocean and The Materials: architecture of a wide shot
The Ocean build progressive music as large narrative planes. The Materials keep the hunger for scale but route it through Belov’s authored electronics. “Pover mne” is another path through tension and release, not a continuation of their story.
Short answer
Beside The Ocean, “Pover mne” foregrounds track architecture over sheer length.
The page maps mood, not biography.
In this frame The Materials sound like Belov’s independent progressive-electronic-cinematic project.
