Origins

The label was founded in 1998 by Frauenarzt, MC Bogy, and Manny Marc.

The first edition of the Album BC by Frauenarzt was produced In a Berlin cassette processing lab (the first edition came with a three-page pornographic booklet. Manny Marc and Frauenarzt sold the album through direct selling until they received help from Downstairs were they able to distribute the album across Germany.

In 1999 Frauenarzt and King Orgasmus One, who then still called himself Orgasmus 69, spent their time with Beats, producing lyrics for Orgasmus's album "Sex König" (Sex King). This was recorded in second half of the year in Mach One's studio with an 8-track recorder. Artists such as Bass Sultan Hengzt, Smoky, Bushido, P. R. Kantate, Unterleib Dynamo, and many others were featured on the 100-minute-long solo debut.

Further recordings originated from the studio, of which the majority were produced in Frauenarzt's studio in Berlin. From sales of the recordings, the new Bassboxxx Studio the could be expanded into the "last hole." Here, the recordings for Frauenarzt's "Untergrund Solo" and "(R)evolution von die Lätzten" were made.[1]

In 2009, in cooperation with Hirntot Records, Bassboxxx produced a new album, "Untergrund," a collaboration album by Frauenarzt and Blokkmonsta.
