His first album 'Warhol' was released was in 1988 and since that time has released over a dozen albums.

FluiD's music, encompasses a multitude of styles and influences - techno, jazz, noise, classical avant-garde, hip-hop, psychedelia, metal, dub, early industrial and ambient. It is often referred to as "post industrial hip-hop". In addition to his many releases, FluiD has also performed throughout North America and Central America, from concert halls to art galleries to dance clubs. He was also a featured performer at several music festivals including, 'experi-MENTAL Festival' (Brooklyn, NY.), 'Noise Shock: Abstract Art and Music Festival' (East Moline, IL.), 'Under the Radar - experimental/industrial/electronic music exposition' (Kansas City, MO.) and 'Spark: Festival of Electronic Music and Arts' (Minneapolis, MN.).

The video project 'Paramnesia I' was created by Heejoo Kim with Chris Gilmore providing the sound-design and musical score. The video was nominated for Best Experimental Film at the Female Eye Film Festival (Toronto, Canada). Another recent collaboration was with Samantha Hill a trans-disciplinary artist from Chicago, IL. Chris provided the soundtrack to 'The Gift Project Chicago', an installation created by Samantha Hill based on the photography of Patrick McCoy.
