New EP Randomised Structures out now!
Listen here and come down to the Randomised Structures EP launch at PINK Manchester tonight – get your tickets here.
Inspired by the patterns of the bathroom floor in his parents’ home when growing up and by his sister’s 90s mousepad which graces the cover, Industries’ new EP Randomised Structures finds the artist revisiting his first teenage electronic experiments. Like tracing the patterns of the bathroom floor, he is finding structures in two of his old tracks (Patterns and Scollage) using them as source material to craft new music (Pulsating Pattern and Sculpted Collage), randomising the structures of the past and integrating them into the present.
Written, produced and mixed by Markus Hetheier.
Mastered by Bon Holloway at High Peak Recordings.

Sculpted Collage (Music Video)
Here comes the music video for Sculpted Collage ahead of tomorrow’s release of Randomised Structures and the EP launch at PINK for which you can still buy tickets.
Thank you Keith Bloody Mary for being up for this experiment. I dissected an old track of mine called Scollage which I made when I was 16, cut it into many samples which I used as percussive elements over a simple techno beat and bit by bit I added layers to it, sculpting a sonic collage in a playful and associate way. Keith Bloody Mary also uses collage as artistic method, but this is their first music video and also my first music video created by someone else. We hope you enjoy.
This video contains flashing light.

Randomised Structures EP announcement and launch
I am excited to announce Randomised Structures, the first EP in a series of releases in which I will reintegrate old tracks of mine into the present. When I was around 16 I recorded five albums that were improvised and barely edited. Now I am using them as source material to craft new music, representing the here and now.
To celebrate the release, there will be an EP launch event at PINK Manchester on December 10th from 7 pm with support from Gary Fisher and Snuggle Ninja. In my live set I will mix stems of my old tracks with recent and new ones, randomising the structures that were before to create something new. Get your tickets here.
Wales out now!
I am very pleased to finally release my newest project called Wales into the world.
Wales is a collaboration between me and Indigo Jung. We played with different samples, like my field recordings of Wales, and mixed them with synthetic and other acoustic samples, such as acoustic drum samples. The result is a chill, experimental electronica track inspired by Wales’ beautiful nature. The flowing water running through the mountains is expressed in organic sounding synth loops that merge with the recordings of streams, mixed with hints of electromagnetic waves.
The remix of Wales by Northworks is inspired by Manchester’s Acid House legacy, taking the track from a more chill, relaxed emotional place inspired by hiking trips in Wales to the more danceable, bouncy realm of Manchester’s electronic music heritage.
Purchase it here and let us know what you think.
Written and produced by Markus Hetheier and Arif Michael True.

Remixed by Michael Gallagher.

‘A Walk 1’ presented at Audire Conference in Portugal
It was a pleasure participating in the Audire Conference (Sound Experiences: Memory, Creativity and Participation) in Braga, Portugal. I was especially excited that curator Cláudia Martinho selected ‘A Walk 1’ by me and Nevsky Perspective. as part of the ‘listening room’ and that I got listen to and meet Brandon LaBelle, one of my favourite sound researchers/artists. Overall, the programme was varied, ranging from paper presentations to sound installations, performances, workshops and film screenings. ‘A Walk 1’ can be listened to on Bandcamp and Spotify.
Angst4: In Gefahr (Industries Remix)
I made my first official remix for the great German post-punk band Angst4 and their song ‘In Gefahr’. I dissected all their stems and transformed them into an electromagnetic whirlwind of gloomy dangerous sounds. Enjoy the trip. Headphones recommended. Listen here. X
Music Video for ‘A Walk 2’
New music video alert!
This music video for ‘A Walk 2‘ is the polar opposite to the video for ‘A Walk 1’. Whereas the first video was serving warm vintage ambient vibes, this one is serving nightmarish Stranger Things vibes.
Buy the full EP here: https://industriesmcr.bandcamp.com/album/a-walk
And while you’re at, watch the music video for ‘A Walk 1 ’ here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JoFhVska9XQ
