After releasing a few recordings on smaller record labels in Germany and his own Cross Fade Entertainment Imprint, and being heralded as a favorite on John Peel's radio show in 1994, de Babalon signed to DHR in 1996, releasing a few EPs and later releasing his only full-length album for the label, If You're Into It, I'm Out of It in 1997.De Babalon was signed after he befriended label operator Alec Empire at a rave in 1994.

The album was well received and gained mostly positive reviews, with Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke describing it as "the most menacing record [he] owns", but in sound was different to other DHR releases, offering a new vision of electronic music that varied greatly from that of artists such as Atari Teenage Riot and EC8OR, who used industrial sounds with hardcore punk and gabber influences. With the release of If You're Into It, I'm Out of It, de Babalon solidified his signature sound as a combination of extreme complexity in construction and complete experimentation in form. Songs span many electronic genres including noise, soundscapes, dark ambient, drum and bass and breakcore. Some of his tracks are also known for their length, lasting up to 15 minutes.

Since 2008, de Babalon has been releasing music more often, even reissuing rare unreleased tracks as a compilation via his own bandcamp page titled The Haunting Past of Christoph de Babalon, Vol. 1 in 2014. He issued his long awaited follow up studio album to If You're Into It, I'm Out of It, titled A Bond With Sorrow, digitally through Kid606's TigerBeat6 imprint in 2012. His fourth full-length album, Short Eternities, was issued in 2015 through Love Love Records.

In his review of the 2018 remaster 'If You're Into It, I'm Out of It', Philip Sherburne of Pitchfork concluded that "no one has ever made another record quite like this one".

When the topic of the combination of dark ambient and electronic music is brought up, many writers often bring up ‘If You're Into It, I'm Out of It’ and its significance.

Press Release:

'The Arrival' in the valley of darkness is a footslog of techno.
It marches strong, forceful and adamant forward. No looking back. A stomping push and pressure alongside dense and energetic percussions. Further down this musical journey, distorted horns dissuade the listener off the path and lead into the darkest parts of this sonic valley. The siren call is a beautiful distraction, and you follow deep down this rabbit hole. But you know you were taken here for a reason. Like an ambush the track comes back with brute force rolling over every existence. Fierce and furious finale.


'The Elevator' starts playful, but takes off very fast. The low-end hits soon with huge low frequencies surging against the dancefloor. You feel is not an average elevator. No my friend. It is steel roller coaster ride. At its finest. The first slope just builds for shooting up into peak time lunacy. The high pitched 101 twitters in frequencies from a glorious past and a never coming tomorrow ... will this ever stop?


While 'The Elevator' reminds us of the glorious past, 'The Quantum Field' tells about the dazzling future. Uplifting energy through modulation while acid cutes the air. Hefty drums dictate the sound of the revolution. And then there is the moment: consciousness creates reality. Because reality is an illusion. 
Welcome to the quantum field.
