When wearing his electronic music hat, he is producing and performing under his stage name Industries that links the post-industrial past of his German hometown to Manchester.

His music explores and subverts musical structures and ranges from field recordings, distorted sounds to harmonic melodies and large beats. As sound artist he has an interest in sound walks and field recordings and collaborates across disciplines and media. His sound work ranges from sound art, audio-visual collaborations to participatory workshops in arts and educational settings and podcasts. He is currently undertaking his practice-led PhD at the School of Digital Arts (SODA) within the Manchester Metropolitan University where he is working on an interdisciplinary digital media project which will explore the relationship between the self and Manchester through sound maps and psychogeography. He is also a volunteer for the Manchester Digital Music Archive (MDMA) and part of the Manchester Music and Sonic Studies (MASSmcr) research group
