Reviews — otto.

““For me, the best part of working with Otto is his willingness to try out different techniques as well as his drive to consistently get better in his craft. It's been a pleasure to work alongside someone who's genuinely dedicated to what he does.”

“It always a privilege to work with Otto he’s enthusiastic, insightful and always provides a service that is next to none. His multi-instrumental skills have proved to be very helpful when in a studio scenario and also as a session musician.”

“Otto is definitely the best producer I’ve ever worked with and if I ever win a MOBO or any awards, his name name will definitely be in the speech, actually he’ll be on the stage with me!”

“My experience with Otto has been a very good experience, he recently mixed and mastered one of my songs which is getting played on BBC Radio. Throughout this process he was very open to feedback and we both had different inputs and idea which we worked around together. When it came to the final product, I was very happy with it, it was definelty radio radio. He just has a good ear for it. I would 100% recommend”

“I’ve made a good few dub and jungle tunes in the studio with Otto which have turned out sick. He also helped me to release my debut EP through his label along with some social media content, album art and music video. He’s still my go-to guy for helping me promote my tunes and create fitting visuals.”

“We’ve had the pleasure of working with OTTO across a range of youth and community music projects through Creative Youth Network at The Station and Bristol Foyer, including 1-2-1 sessions, small group workshops, and larger collaborative programmes with organisations including Youth Moves, Access Creative college, Pirate Studios, and Studios For All.

What stands out immediately is not only OTTO’s high level of technical skill and knowledge in music production, recording, and songwriting, but also the way he works with people. He is approachable, respectful, helpful, positive, patient, and encouraging, always creating an environment where artists and young people feel genuinely comfortable expressing themselves creatively. This has been especially important when working with young people who may be new to music or building confidence within creative spaces.

During sessions and workshops, and general studio sessions participants have been able to learn hands-on skills including music production, vocal recording, songwriting, arrangement, and understanding the wider creative process behind making music. OTTO has a great ability to explain technical aspects clearly while keeping sessions engaging and encouraging, which has had a real impact on everyone involved.

The feedback from young people, students, and participants has consistently been positive, with many describing sessions as inspiring, supportive, and motivating. OTTO brings a calm, professional, and welcoming energy into every studio session and workshop, making it easy for artists to feel relaxed, confident, and able to develop their ideas freely.

It has been a genuine pleasure working together, and overall we would highly recommend OTTO to anyone looking for a talented producer, workshop facilitator, and creative collaborator who truly cares about both the music and the people he works with.”
