Honestly? It's hard to say. I know there's different artists whose material would definitely influence the music I would end up making, in the sense that after hearing it, I would love to try and make something to a similar extent of awesomeness.
Rammstein - Reise Reise
Oomph! - Monolith, Come and Kick me, Asshole, Bis der Spiegel Verbricht, Auf Kurs... Many good ones.
Yuzo Koshiro - The GG Shinobi(awesome music through its entirety, I suggest emulating it)
Infected Mushroom - End of the road and Project 100
Combichrist - Many of the more Club-like sounds(Brain Bypass, Fuck that Shit, Dawn of Man Give head if you got it), but also the industrial sounding things like Joy to the World, Tractor, and Turmoil.
I also really like German folk music like The Inchtabokatables, Potentia Animi, and some songs In Extremo did as well.
