Om Unit

A minimal voyage through acid-tinged dub and modular rhythm, Om Unit’s Acid Dub Studies feels like an underground laboratory session

Released as a self-issued cassette/LP, *Acid Dub Studies* funnels the raw sine-wave squelch of classic 303 acid into the rhythmic space of dub and echo-heavy breakdowns. Each piece stretches loops into hypnotic patterns, warping bass pulses, smeared percussion and drifted melodies into spacious low-end meditations.

Om Unit builds each track around modular fragments and vintage drum-machine grooves, peeling back layers rather than piling them on. The result is a stripped-down dub exploration—booming subs, delayed clap/snare echoes, acid leads that coil and unwind—where every sonic element is given room to breathe.

For fans of Basic Channel’s dub minimalism, early Rhythm & Sound ductile space, or the stripped focus of Echospace remixes, this is terrain of restraint and depth. *Acid Dub Studies* is a deliberate push toward essentialism: less is more, and what remains is more potent.
Ideal listening at dawn or deep into the warehouse after-smoke, this release cements Om Unit’s approach to combining acid’s mechanical pulse with dub’s spatial elegance.
