Caleb Enis, also known by his production alias I Am Entropy, is hot on the scene in the realm of all things bass music. Citing an eclectic taste, he attributes his musical inspirations and unique style to Kill the Noise, Mat Zo, and Moody Good because “they are able to write in many different genres or styles, even within the same song.” This correlates into his name and overall style as “entropy” is defined as “lack of order or predictability,” an attribute easily palpable in his newest piece ‘Moving On,’ which we are proud to premiere here for you today.
When asked what the personal significance behind ‘Moving On’ was, I Am Entropy responded saying, “Graduating college and the stresses of not really knowing what I want to do with my life. It’s been a rocky transition for me, but writing about it in a musical sense has been a great way of coping. On a more meta level, the song itself took me over a year to make and went through a ton of revisions before I got it where I wanted. I would have to keep telling myself to literally ‘move on’: push forward and finish the damn thing! Those sorts of internal struggles aren’t the funnest experiences, but I do feel like I’ve grown a lot as a person and artist over the time it took me to write this tune, which is cool.”
A track that is more of an experience than a listening piece, ‘Moving On’ is a song that evolves from an ethereal wave of entrancing uplifting vibrations that wash over you like a cool breeze, to a dark romp through a mystical jungle. Enis stated that he wanted to pay homage to both Virtual Self and G Jones in the work, which is easily recognizable by the variance from the first drop to the second. Virtual Self’s vibey yet almost videogame-like feel is apparent in the first half of the song, while G Jones’s impressive bass line work, fine-tuned arrangement, and ridiculous progression in the latter half will leave you in a wheelchair.
Since his name literally means that he’ll forever be unpredictable, it’s unsure what will come next from this impressive producer, but what he’s showcased with just this single piece is the ability to bring something fresh to the table, while still incorporating sounds and ideas that carry a familiar tone.
