OHM Dedication Series #4: Mr. Beatnick presents Sun Ra
The OHM Dedication Series has returned after a summer break and this one is a peach.
Mr. Beatnick offers you a mix dedicated to Sun Ra, the legendary jazz musician, bandleader and afro-futurist philosopher from Saturn.
Whether you're an expert on his music or a total newcomer, this will be mind-expanding and a lot of fun. Just click here to listen on Soundcloud, or on the pic below.

You can read about our good friend Mr. Beatnick on the same page as the mix and check out his excellent Synthetes EP on the Don't Be Afraid label, which also recently dropped this 10" from our pal Claws For?.
The OHM Dedication Series is designed to let some of our favourite producers, artists and friends of the label showcase a musician who has had a profound influence on them, and give you a further glimpse into OHM's musical world.
We have 4 new 7"s by SWW on Monosole Music to give away. Why? Because they feature a remix by our very own Paul White. All you have to do is "like" the post about it on Paul White's Facebook page and we'll contact four people at random.
Not sure you can be bothered? Listen to it here and witness your resistance crumble.
Oh and yes, SWW is Sarah Williams White, and she's Paul's sister. They're like the Michael and Janet Jackson of South-London elec..oh, never mind.
Charli XCX x Paul White Video
Pop-star-in-waiting Charli XCX just released her version of Paul White's So Far Away and made a video for it which splices together all sorts of internet memes and Disney clips. It's like looking inside the head of a teenager, but without the wrong bits. Click on the video to watch it.
That's her, right there.
Well Scrolled. Bravo.
Here's your reward for that smooth scrolling you just completed. It's a tip. Next time we mail, it'll be with news of our next limited edition white-label 7", hand-numbered, hand-stamped and available for approximately 9 seconds. Keep'em peeled.
In other news, if you only scrolled down here to find the unsubscribe button, and are now apoplectic with fury, frustration and pent-up desire to watch a video full of Disney princesses and Tumblr culture, then let me help you. It's just there, at the bottom. Sorry to see you go.
