Entropik are a multi-genre duo from Leeds, UK whose cinematic music is distinguished by their use of cello and their fusion of Classical, Electronica and World elements. Their influences are diverse and include Peter Gabriel, Robert Fripp, Elbow, Brian Eno, Dead Can Dance, Tangerine Dream, The Insects, Lisa Gerrard, Howard Shore and Hans Zimmer. Formed in 2007, the duo consists of Daniel Cullen (producer, guitar and bass) and Deryn Cullen (cello and keyboards)

Since releasing their first album in 2007 "Reflections on Time", Entropik have made a name for themselves both as innovative music-makers and as film music contributors. Much of their professional focus has been on the world of film and TV where their music has been used in award-winning films, documentaries, PC games, major TV series (including CBS teen drama 90210) and advertising campaigns.

In 2010 the duo's music gained further recognition through two international music competitions: The People's Music Awards, where they were runners up in the electronica category; and The Hitachi G-Tech Driven Creativity Awards, where they were runners up in the Professional Music category. In 2009 they won Best Short Film score in the Humfest film and music festival. This year (2011) they finished in third place in The People's Music Awards classical category.

Entropik have collaborated with fellow independent artists, Ancient Astronauts on both of their albums, We Are to Answer (2009) and Into Bass and Time (2011). The albums were released by ESL Music, the label run and owned by IDM masters, Thievery Corporation. Both albums, released in physical and digital formats, were favourably received by fans and critics.
