Where most of DHR's fold stylized the labels ethic with brutalized the amen break over distorted punk guitar samples and snappy slogans, De Babalon's album stood as the black sheep of the label but also one of the best. Unlike his peers, his music is incredibly bleak, devoid of any vocals and relying more on dark ambient textures and sparse snatches of drum n bass influence which he called "Dirge Funk" when interviewed in the DHR newspaper many years ago.
To steady this notion the opening track "Opium" if on vinyl has a side to its own and clocks in at 15 minutes long and after that, the real adventure begins and in some cases, Heavily recommended for midnight listenings as previously stated this album unlike most of the DHR roster this album commands you to sit calmly and appreciate the art, instead of smashing things to pieces.

Two other reviewers = 100% Agree, one of my all-time favorite records, and a big influence on my own work. Listened to the previews of the new album. Sounds like a cheap RDJ knockoff, If You're Into It, I'm Out Of It certainly doesn't!

This record is intense! It's the reason why I love and respect Christoph de Babalon. This is nothing like the rest of DHR catalog. This is dark, brooding, sinister and intense!! When I bought this record I heard the first five seconds of Opium and thought, "I'm going to love this record!", and I do, from start to finish. Opium and High Life are two epic tracks filled with deep drones and harrowing ambience. The rest of the album is filled with the same spine tingling ambience and heavy breakbeat arrangements. They aren't any in-your-face style DHR breakbeats, but it's not a light D n' B track either. Give this record a listen, you will not be disappointed.
