As a producer and DJ, Om Unit’s persistent presence in an ever-changing musical landscape has solidified his place as an electronic music pioneer and stalwart.
He has been known to distil and cross-pollinate tropes of breaks, techno, hip-hop, dubstep, ambient, jungle, footwork, and dub into a fluid take on sound system culture and electronic music that sidesteps the pitfalls of genres and pastiche and creates new potentials for exploration and inspiration with many following in his footsteps.
On record his explorations into the ‘deeper’ end of the electronic music spectrum have come via such releases as his critically acclaimed debut LP ‘Threads’ via Civil Music, 2014’s ‘inversion’ for Metalheadz (an homage to the label’s original sound palette via DAT’s lent by Goldie himself), 2017’s ‘Self’ via his own now-defunct ‘Cosmic Bridge’ label and his recent spate of conceptual ‘Acid Dub Studies’ LP as non-label self-releases complete with 2 sets of remixes from a whole host of luminary producers and DJ’s including Hodge, Deadbeat, CV313, Yushh, Tapes, Surgeon’s Girl and many more.
