Unter Null (German for 'below zero') initially began as a powernoise project influenced by a number of similar prominent artists, including Noisex, Converter and P.A.L. Her first, self-titled, album was released in 2001. In 2002, she was signed to Leech and NTT/Annihilvs Records to release her second, web-exclusive album Neocide. In 2005, she signed to label Alfa Matrix. She has since released a number of EPs and albums, remixed several artists, and appeared on compilation albums.

On December 25, 2008, Dunham's studio, containing her musical, recording and electronic equipment as well as other belongings, was destroyed in a fire. It was feared at first that her newest album, Moving On, had been lost in the fire, although tracks were able to be recovered from a damaged hard drive.
