Yes, he's one of my top 5 artists probably. I LOVE 8000 bc.
Escalo frio was good, but not as thought out. 8000 bc is an
ingenious original insane masterpiece. so is the artwork for
it... read what they wrote at forcedexposure:

"The day Otto moved in, I was a little concerned. We had no
spare rooms, only two couches in our modest downstairs
living room- a room hardly fit for living in. When he
pullled into the parking lot, his clunking '67 comet was
filled with eyes and colorful faces, like the circus car
that spews out an endless stream of clowns. Some of the
faces were clowns, some were robots, there was an ET, a
Transformer or two, scores of Smurfs, a Hellraiser Pin-head,
a modified Pillsbury doughboy, and about three hundred other
odd characters. One by one, they came inside to live. We
already had a junglist living in the master bedroom, and now
it was sure to get mad. Otto's ritual began. Every day he
would wake up at two or three in the afternoon, get in his
car and clunk away into the river of cars on the way to his
Grandmother's house. There he would do odd jobs and run
errands, and in return he would leave with a large coveted
pot of his Grandmothers magic black bean concoction, worth
more than any salary. On his way home, he would stop make a
few drop-offs to various delinquents and mutants around the
city. This was very stressful to him, but upon returning,
suite d256 was quiet. I was usually the only one awake,
quietly clicking my mouse, illuminated by the glow of a
liquid crystal display in the upstairs studio. I would come
down from time to time to get a bowl of rice or make some
tea, and there, in the near darkness he would be, staring
profoundly into the two inch green window of his drum
machine, like a peeping tom looking through his favorite
keyhole. His headphones would chatter, slurp, and giggle on
his head like Jabba the Hut's little pet (I think they made
sounds without even being plugged in). We would listen to
each other's songs in mutual amazement. Inspiration would
draw us bac

cont...
Inspiration would draw us back to work, new ideas forming as
we went off to our separate screens. Around the time I'd
tuck myself in, I would hear Otto's car starting, clamorous
as a rusted shipyard boat, and again he would sail off, just
hours before the sun would arc around the Atlantic curve to
scorch the land. This time he was off to rehearse with his
band, appropriately named Insectdezyde Juice. I never heard
them play or saw where they practiced, but at that hour I
imagine it was pretty grim. I suppose it was pretty
exhausting, because when I would arise, he was always there,
comatose on the couch in the broad daylight. Those of us who
were awake would play music, talk, and eat in that, the
"living" room, providing the subliminal soundtrack to Otto's
dreams. Deep inside, dreams filled his head with
sleepwalking burnt smurfs, competing plant courriers
tailgating close behind, magic microphones jumping like
fleas, eluding his grasp, while Phoenecian Warriors wandered
through lost Incan cities in search of secret frequencies.
The black bean potion churned deep inside of his sleeping
body, changing him. Across town, his grandmother is stirring
a bubbling pot. For a moment she pauses, looks up above the
rising steam, and smiles. - Joshua Kay

fine, if I have to hack this up into smaller pieces I'll GET
MORE POINTS!!!!!! HA HA HA HAHA!!!!! Richard Devine and
phoenecia play live with otto I reckon and they mirror his
insanity and attention to detail. Also check mp3.com/dannn
because he's getting signed to schematic soon. Also my song
"the flush of mr. squiggles" is going to be on the next
schematic compilation (www.mp3.com/artificialselection)
