Under The Counter & Leftfoot presents: Om Unit

UnderThe Counter are back for 2011 and are very Happy to be teaming up with Leftfoot for a series of shows in 2011 that are set to blow minds and push the Birmingham electronic music community into the new year with a bang.

We are kicking things off with a very special Friday night show with non other than Om Unit headling proceedings .

…Om Unit aka Jim Coles Has been causing quite a stir in the world of beat and bass culture music of late with big remixes just out for Joker and The Foreign Beggars, the release of his Corridor EP on Plasticians Terrorhythm imprint, and the drop of the 12″ Searching .. which is getting slammed across dancefloors and radio worldwide.

This is a chance to see one of the pioneers of the beat scene play in B’ham for the 1st time. Jim’s heavy bass lines future sounds and heavy dubbed out beats are not be missed !

One of many but with a very distinctive sound, Om Unit has already captured the minds of beat fanatics with his work to date. Style-wise you could say “post-genre” or just “Electronic Beats?”.. Genres are like borders, rapidly becoming obselete when we see the world today as having an ever increasing merging of styles and influences. put simply, its electronic music.

Jim Coles previously worked under the name 2tall, as a competitive DJ (DMC/ITF etc.) a live performer in the UK and in Europe working with turntable and samplers, and producer of several albums including 2007′s “Beautiful Mindz”, a project put together with Dudley Perkins and Georgia Anne Muldrow, other albums include ‘Shifting Tides’ (2004) and ‘The Softer Diagram’ (2008). Beyond that his work with Dented Records led to productions and collaborations with Uk Rap artists Foreign Beggars, Jehst, Kashmere and Kyza, as well as production and turntablist work on the ‘united colours of beggatron’ album (No Holes Barred / No More).

Support for this show comes in the form of Leftfoot and UTC residents
