Naarm/Melbourne-based composer, vocalist and multimedia artist officially joins NM with a new single, 'op.1 ādam' - streaming everywhere from mid-September.

Flittering open with its arpeggiated petals and subsuming sub bass tones, ‘op.1 ādam’ immediately breathes through Jadu’s layered autotune vocal gliding across the stereo field. As the bass then relents in waves, the constant arp progresses with tactile kineticism into playful squelching, while obtusely room mic’d flute and clarinet snake into focus. The group’s intertwining of its decided strands of assiduous synthesis and acoustic performance acts as a means of dimension-building, creating a split-level structure; the fabric of which we are slowly drawn into, in between and released from, as though passing weightlessly through the Magellanic Clouds at a velocity indiscernible between lightspeed and subatomic stasis.

Featuring contributions from Mildlife's Adam Halliwell on flute, composer and clarinetist Aviva Endean and longtime AJ collaborator Emma Ovenden on synths, 'op.1 ādam' is taken from a forthcoming full length 'SICFWYLF' released on NM in 2026. Over 5 years in the making, 'SICFWYLF' marks Aarti's first album release since her much loved debut 'L'Ecole De La Caz' in 2022.

op.1 ādam

I love spending time in the forest, that's a very recharging time for me, and I find forest raves are something really special. So I was honoured to be invited as part of Eris and Maya's curation to open the festival on the Forest Rave stage. 
I loved trying to slowly build up the vibe for the day and prepare for Octo Octa and Faited's amazing dnb b2b just after my set. Thanks to the all team at Draaimolen for the warm welcome, Eris and Maya for the invite, my friends and all dancers and the ones who even stayed during the rain :)

sadsugar Guest Mix - Hang Tough on Subcity Radio

After a full day of sound system music at Freetown Christiania, Om Unit played a two-hour closing set. Not only was it a masterclass journey through his sound; it was a step by step demonstration of how to reset a vibe and build it back up. With a refined sense of how to scale and intensify a musical storyline, this set exemplifies how some DJ’s have that special gift of feeling the vibe. Along with the mix we caught up with him to talk more about DJ'ing and his thoughts about the craft post-pandemic.
