ENTROPIA is an ambient, electronic band formed in Rome, Italy in 1996. The band has experienced several line-up changes, with producers, and principal composers Amptek and Dr.Lops being the two constant members. Entropia are often labelled as ambient, but they usually resist being typecast into any one particular genre. Their work covers most areas of electronic music, such as ambient dub, funk, trip-hop, italian soundtracks, psychedelia and often involves extreme experimentation; for example they have, since the turn of the millennium, experimented with techno and electro under their Auto.Vox alias. In addition to music composition, their interests have covered a number of areas including dance, cinema, painting, video, computer graphics. ECLECTIC SURREALISM was released as a soundtrack for some classic surrealistic motion pictures. This is the first chapter of a work about the connection between electronic music and digital culture and the aesthetic vision in the art of historical avantgardes. The album itself featured ambient soundscapes, space jazz, and electro grooves. The line-up is: Amptek Alex Marenga: computer programming, synths, guitars Dr. Lops: synthesizers, samples Emiliano Cappelli: electric and filtered basses Biagio Orlandi: saxes Marco Micheli aka MikMak: electronic percussion on track "Ballet Mecanique"
