Gimmik is an electronic music artist known for his unique blend of glitch, IDM, and ambient sounds. With a career spanning over two decades, Gimmik has established himself as a pioneer in the genre. His intricate compositions and experimental soundscapes have garnered him a dedicated fan base around the world.

Influenced by artists such as Abfahrt Hinwil, Mr. Projectile, and Secede, Gimmik's music takes listeners on a journey through ethereal melodies and intricate beats. His ability to seamlessly combine organic and synthetic elements creates a captivating sonic experience that is both thought-provoking and emotive.

With releases on renowned labels like Adam Johnson's Merck Records and Blamstrain's DeFocus Records, Gimmik has solidified his position as one of the most respected figures in the electronic music scene. Collaborations with artists such as Kettel, Proem, and Funckarma further showcase his versatility and collaborative spirit.

Cloudwalker was entirely written and produced between March and November 2020. The album is a welcome return of Martin Haidinger's more notable style after the floating tranquility of the ambient/drone series of albums like Entre Les Chambres and Deux Nouvelles. What's contained within Cloudwalker mirrors its name. Haidinger takes Gimmik on a somewhat weightless journey above the clouds floating between the electronic music he nurtured in the Toytronic years. These new tracks represent a production concept where Martin saw himself more like a witness of a moving organism than a planning architect. This approach gave the music the space to evolve more freely, like clouds. It broadened the emotional sound pallet of Gimmik's style without denying its heritage.
