Radio Om, the pairing of international music selectors DJ Swivel and Sharaab, hits the dance floor with a new monthly party that kicks off Saturday, Feb. 11, at Shewit Eritrean Restaurant & Bar in Clarkston. This is a return to form for two of the city’s original masters of blending exotic global music and electronic beats.

DJ Swivel is an Atlanta staple who's been on Atlanta's local music scene since the early ’90s, and is a resident DJ at Apres Diem in Midtown. Sharaab is a fixture of the Asian Massive movement, known for blending vintage synth sounds with industrial beatscapes and Eastern inflections. His latest CD, Asura (Nophi Recordings), keeps a fixed focus on fusing traditional Indian music and dubstep.

In the meantime, check out Swivel's Fela Kuti tribute mix, "A Taste of Afro-Heat."

Free. 10 p.m. till last call. Shewit Eritrean Restaurant & Bar, 926 Montreal Road, Clarkston. 404-294-8899.
