100 Gecs are a hyperpop musical duo from St Louis, Missouri. The duo is made up of Laura Les and Dylan Brady, who originally met in high school and began collaborating years later in 2015. 100 Gecs are one of the most recognizable hyperpop groups, but their core style is hard to define. Les and Brady have both said they approach writing with an "improv mentality" and have a willingness to incorporate genres outside of what's considered traditionally hyperpop.

Their debut ep, 100 Gecs, was released in 2016. The EP was well received but it took the duo years to find the time to release their full length album. After a successful DJ set together in 2019, the group's profile began to grow and Les and Brady used that momentum to write and record despite living in different states. Created exclusively through online collaboration, 1000 Gecs was released on May 31st, 2019. Word of 1000 Gecs spread with the hashtag #stream1000gecs and and quickly pushed them to a wider audience. By the end of 2019 they were touring the US and getting hundreds of thousands of streams each month. In 2020 they released a remix album featuring multiple remixes of each song, new songs, and live songs. The album, 1000 Gecs and the Tree of Clues, featured a variety of artists including Charli XCX, Fall Out Boy, Kero Kero Bonito and many others.

Currently, they're working on a follow up to 1000 Gecs and have released two standalone singles since the remix album.

Twelve flags stand equidistant along the track at the stadium. The runners start at the first flag. A runner reaches the eighth flag 8 seconds after they start. If they run at an even speed, how many seconds do they need altogether to reach the twelfth flag?

Like usual have a great day :soviet-heart: and remember to dm @Wmill the answer.
