As a producer and DJ, Om Unit’s persistent presence in an ever-changing musical landscape has solidified his place as a known electronic music innovator. Beginning this project in the late 00’s, the English producer has sought to challenge himself and his audience by going beyond the confines of typical genres and styles. In the process he has found success by striving for a more human approach to connecting styles of electronic music in unique and daring ways.

Ambient without stagnation, acid without nostalgia, and dub without formula. A play with electronic music and sound system culture filtered through a personal, refined gaze. For over fifteen years, Jim Coles has been messing around, tidying up, and deconstructing various club music genres, working with everything from footwork, jungle, dub, techno, and ambient. The references and history behind the music are always as important as the soundscape itself: from early releases under the alias Philip D Kick to releases on labels such as Metalheadz, Cosmic Bridge and, not least, collaborative projects with Martyn, TM404 and Deadbeat. With Acid Dub Studies, he delves into the fluid, repetitive and ritualistic aspects of acid and dub. The project has evolved through three different albums and countless live shows.
