Techno Producer from Mainz, Germany. His first release was as Exit 100 in 1991 on the Force Inc. Music Works label out of Frankfurt. In 1993 he founded Trope Recordings, and its sub-label Acid Fuckers Unite (A.F.U.) the following year. In 1998 he succeeded those labels by starting Wavescape, and its sub-label Subwave in 2000. He currently produces Hard Techno with strong EBM influences, and has been a frequent collaborator with Jörg Henze since 1998.

Heckmann's techno is at its' peak when he gives us his take on EBM. He's the master at peak-time stormers, with sawtooth basslines and excellent use of sounds and percussion underpinning them, usually accompanied by an excellent denouement i.e. EBM 1 and Sundancer. Further, his remixes tend to rework the original track completely, into something that's usually a big improvement on the original.......
