Omnom

Individuality is OMNOM’s calling card. It’s precisely what prompts him to operate not just off house music’s beaten path, but so deeply within his own lane that he evades comparison and predictability. In his inability to be pinned down lies OMNOM’s power. And since 2018, he’s channeled it to steadily chart his course to a distinction coveted by many in dance/electronic circles but ultimately claimed by few: household name. Following his breakout hit, “Fo Free” (Dirtybird Records, 2018), the enigmatic producer has increasingly carved his niche in the house scene with a clear sense of mystique. This involves not just toeing the line between the underground and the mainstream, but hopping, skipping, and jumping around it. It’s a matter not only of skill, but also of fluidity and agility. The result? Left-of-center, bass-fueled house maximalism. With a penchant for blurring the lines between house music, offshoots like bass house, and other genres entirely while being unabashedly “loud and subby,” OMNOM is synonymous with a divergent style of house music that abides neither by trend nor expectation. As he’s stoked the already-hot house market, the tastemaker, born and raised in Los Angeles, has earned the support of industry fixtures, like Dom Dolla, John Summit, Chris Lorenzo, FISHER, Walker & Royce, and Malaa. These nods are flanked by a strong resume of releases on highly-regarded dance/electronic labels, including Experts Only, Insomniac Records, Thrive Music, Confession, and Dirtybird Records. A tide of Beatport No.1s has ensued, including OMNOM’s standout collaboration with Odd Mob, “Losing Control'' (Experts Only, 2023). In addition to commanding the club circuit, the single rocketed to the top of the Beatport Top 100 chart and concurrently debuted on Billboard’s Hot/Dance Electronic chart. “Losing Control'' has since tallied more than 14 million streams, suggesting that OMNOM and Odd Mob — the minds behind HYPERBEAM, their freshly-formed joint project sure to shake up the dance/electronic space — aren’t just in control, but are bonafide house authorities. HYPERBEAM’s debut EP ‘The Unexplained’ landed in April 2024 via Insomniac Records, just ahead of OMNOM and Odd Mob’s live premiere as HYPERBEAM at EDC Las Vegas 2024. A discography of club doozies and an infallible ability to stimulate crowds are just two of OMNOM’s aces. The house head has played them nationwide at some of the States’ most-frequented venues for dance music, notably selling out Exchange LA at the start of the year for a special, 360-degree experience. The headline event came on the heels of OMNOM’s December 2023 stop at LA’s BMO Stadium in support of John Summit. These appearances add impact to OMNOM’s already-indomitable roster of show and festival bookings, which notably includes EDC Las Vegas. With OMNOM, what comes next is anyone’s guess, but one thing is certain: he’ll continue to reliably move the needle in modern house music.
