CHRISTOPH DE BABALON is known for tripping beats, dark wide spaces and eternal melancholy. He released his first record in 1994 on Hamburg’s cult-label Fischkopf. This record (as well as all that followed over the next years) were extensively played by BBC-DJ-legend John Peel. Right after his debut he began working with Alec Empire’s Digital Hardcore Recordings (DHR) where he, besides a couple of other records released his most important work: the legendary album ‘If You’re Into It, I’m Out Of It’. DHR still say that it remains their most important release.

His new release “Scylla & Charybdis” is dedicated to two unfortunate girls from Greek mythology. Once beautiful nymphs, both were jinxed to live their life as monsters.

As a co-founder of the music label Cross Fade Enter Tainment he has been putting out records since 1994 by influential electronic hardcore producers such as Somatic Responses, DJ Scud, Kouhei, Cdatakill, Unit Moebius, Zbigniew Karkowski and Merzbow.

“The most menacing record I own” - THOM YORKE of Radiohead about “If You’re Into it, I’m Out Of It”

“The most outstanding album on DHR […] - nobody will ever top this!!!” - ALEC EMPIRE about “If You’re Into it, I’m Out Of It”

I just cannot understand why this guy isn't more popular, even by the pretty low standards of dnb/breakcore.

Any heads up where you can buy the 'Love Under Will' EP and the 'In a Bad Mood' EP, online, with international shipping? Or are they totally out of print? :( Damn apart from 'If you're into it...' his stuff is so hard to find.

I'm so excited for the new album. "If You're Into It, I'm Out Of It" was so ahead of its time in the era of digital hardcore/jungle. I'm hoping "Scylla & Charybdis" is equally light years ahead of the current sound of breakcore, or whatever other genres Christoph decides to dominate.
