FM Einheit, born Frank-Martin Strauß in 1958, is a pioneering German musician and sound artist renowned for his innovative contributions to experimental music. As a core member of Einstürzende Neubauten from 1981 to 1996, he was instrumental in shaping the band's distinctive industrial sound through unconventional percussion using custom-made metal instruments and power tools. Beyond Neubauten, Einheit has collaborated with artists like Diamanda Galás and Marianne Rosenberg, and co-founded projects such as Gry with Danish singer Gry Bagøien. His extensive work in theater and radio plays has earned him multiple accolades, including the Hörspielpreis der Kriegsblinden. ([zkm.de](https://zkm.de/en/person/fm-einheit?utm_source=openai))
