Om Unit – Acid Dub Studies

Jim Coles once again turns the tide towards a new horizon and travels further into the echo chamber. Leading on from the much-lauded Secret Location mini-album with Seekersinternational, one-offs such as Open Palms dub (Dub Stuy) and other teasings, Acid Dub Studies is the fully-fledged result of the merging of the calligraphic expression of the 303 Acid bassline with the stern sway of Dub Reggae and the hazier edges of Dub Techno and Ambient music.

For those who have been paying close attention, this project will come as a welcome return to the vulnerability and playfulness of early Om Unit records such as his sub-radar single from 2010 Lightgrids/Lavender (All City Records) or the unearthed chugging ambience of Friend of Day (Idle Hands) and indeed in some sense draws from similar wellsprings as moments on 2013s Bass classic Threads.
