Portformat – Entropy

Entropy is a measure of uncertainty leading to a lower level of information. The eighteen stories of love and life featured on Portformat's new album aim for exactly that, asking you to listen closer to your instincts and follow your dreams.

Elegantly combining R&B, hip hop and electronics, the dream world of 'Entropy' takes the listener on a mysterious trip towards inner space. Fellow dream chasers on this space ride include TDR vocalists such as Alicia Renee, Amalia, Colonel Red, Dudley Perkins, Eagle Nebula, Georgia Anne Muldrow, Stan Smith and other very special guests. So buckle up and get ready to explore the entropy with us!

Brilliant set of tunes! I would follow more the physics definition of entropy: It's raising when one listens to these tracks
