Mitternacht was created along 2001, by the conception of Friedrich Curwenius, the only member and composer. Music is mostly instrumental, with ambiental voices (synth and human). Style is diverse, but centered in dark (even doom in some passages) and black melodies, with fast drums, where appear. However, Mitternacht must be considered as involved in the ambient metal environment, with symphonic black and doom influences. There is no guitar sound in current material.

Its music is inspired on those keyboards introductions that opened a lot of black metal releases, along with percussion greatly influenced by symphonic black metal too.
In the first months of 2002, a demo was presented to Furias Records. The label later agreed to release the first full lenght CD, "The Desolation of Blendenstein".

After two years, in august 2004, Mitternacht has released the second CD, "The Raise of the Secret Cities", following the line composition of the first CD, along with a special double CD edition, containing both releases with alternate cover art in a DVD box, under the name "The Cyclic Deliverance".
The third CD was already composed and recorded by early 2006, still unreleased by March.
