Om Unit, a stage name that has become synonymous with the exploratory realms of electronic music, belongs to Jim Coles, an acclaimed producer and DJ hailing from the UK. He embarked on his musical voyage in the early 2000s under the alias 2tall, delving into the depths of instrumental hip-hop and turntablism. His transition to Om Unit marked an evolutionary step, and with it came a deft fusion of various genres, such as drum and bass, footwork, jungle, and ambient - a hybrid sound that has both defined and continually redefined his career.

Om Unit's discography is a testimony to his sonic versatility and innovative approach to music production. With releases like "Acid Dub Versions II" and "In The Afterworld," he has demonstrated a masterful grasp of electronic music's foundational elements while constantly pushing into new territories. His work has not only resonated with fans but also garnered respect amongst his peers, as evidenced by the array of artists from diverse backgrounds remixing his tracks, as seen in the expansive reworks of "Valium Tempo," "Bristol Theme," and "Camo." A vanguard in his own right, Om Unit continues to craft immersive soundscapes that challenge and captivate listeners, positioning him as a forward-thinking architect in the global electronic music scene.
