Misanthrop specializes in the drum and bass genre, founded by German artist Michael Bräuninger himself, popularly known by his stage name "Misanthrop". His illustrious journey in the music industry commenced in the late '90s with DJing, followed by music production in 2002. The label is widely recognized for producing music that dares to step away from traditional parameters, with Misanthrop's unique style, hallmarked by dominance of reduced, and experimental drum and bass music.
Notably, Misanthrop’s first release was a collaboration with Phace, founder of Neosignal, which produced the Federal Tracks EP. Later, Misanthrop's first solo album, titled "Misanthrop", was released in 2016, universally acclaimed by critics and audiences. The winning streak continued with significant releases like singles such as "Deus" and "Analog" (2017), which successfully pushed boundaries in the drum and bass landscape.
Besides, Misanthrop's second album, "Analog", in collaboration with Synergy, was met with patriotic applause in the industry, manifesting that Misanthrop hasn't just been a vehicle for producing Bräuninger's personal compositions but it also fosters creative collaborations with talented artists around the globe. This pioneering record label undeniably remains a major contributor to the ever-evolving drum and bass music scene worldwide.
