about
Philanthrope is a chillhop producer based in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. He began releasing music in 2015. In his creative process, Philanthrope emphasizes the importance of maintaining a continuous flow of ideas and avoiding breaks when feeling inspired. He follows a "trial and error" approach, experimenting with different sounds and techniques. When creating instrumentals, he focuses on building a foundation of drums and a main melody, gradually adding layers of additional sounds. When collaborating with vocalists, he adapts the beats to provide a simple yet engaging backdrop. Philanthrope's breakthrough came with the release of his full-length album, "Clockwork," in August 2017. The album features fifteen songs and includes collaborations with artists such as DRWN., Tusken, Mono:Massive, Tesk, and Fujistu. The soundscape of the album is combining elements of horn-heavy jazz with hip-hop, trip-hop, and soul. Philanthrope has collaborated with producer Devaloop and rapper Omaure, in addition to releasing a significant collection of solo works. His music was featured on several of the Chillhop's Essentials compilations. Originally from Innsbruck, Austria, Philanthrope drew inspiration from living in a city with limited musical activity. In 2018, he relocated to Rotterdam to work alongside the Chillhop family, further enhancing his productivity and aligning his music with their shared vision. As the Head of A&R at Chillhop Music, Philanthrope collaborates with talented art
