entropic advance

entropic advance has reformed in Denver, Co featuring bios+a+ic, circle six, and bahiya. They made their 2010 debut at transistor festival and are currently working on a new studio album. entropic advance was founded in 1998 by bios+a+ic and noise poet nobody in Seattle, Washington, u.s. and has been a constantly evolving collaborative of numerous innovative electronic and avant-guard sound artists.

Lush, haunting trumpet/vocals, and warped strings and synthesizer textures, blend seamlessly with heavily manipulated electronic beats, dark pulsating drones and glitches, and thick layers of delicious ear candy. The music is heavy euro-inspired electronics and ethereal noise improvisations, an artistic hybrid of clicks, thumps, rhythms, and tones, with space for improvisation, always lucid and fresh for their live listeners. Each cd release explores different territory incorporating elements of ambient, industrial, noise, acid jazz, minimalism, IDM, down-tempo, etc. and is a sonic documentation of the current live/ studio collaborations of that time and place.

Always seeking new venues and presentations, ea has played clubs, museums, galleries, warehouses, and outdoor festivals, and turns each performance into a unique event, which will often include video projections (bios+a+ic, lowREZ, The Now device, Spaceboat tv.), dancers (belly, fire, modern, butoh) and guest musicians/events (transistor festival, textures, Dronerama, Seattle Noise Festival, cd release parties). With 10+ full-length cd releases, entropic advance has influenced thousands of people and all members continue to produce solo and group works. It seems that this is only the first chapter of what has already proven to be a legendary group of amazing sound artists.
