Oto is a place where recorded music can be preserved, heard, and respected. Itās a place where curation is key. A place where a relationship between the presenter and the listener can deepen in an intimate space.
This was a difficult project to dial in. The ability to get things right, make it look easy, and SOUND GOOD takes a strong and resilient team, and i am thankful to share space with all of them. We set the bar high and we met it with precision.
Oto is here. Please stop by sometime š

Had the opportunity to record a B2B with @plars.wav at Blind Barber in CHICAGO. 100% hardgroove. No rehersal. No discussion. All improv. Stream link in my b i o >>>>>>>
MAJOR THANK YOU to @blokewho for the invite š«¶š¾
Programming a space like Oto isnāt only about booking artists. Itās about shaping contrast.
For Keith, every night is meant to feel dramatically different ā a shift in sound, energy, and perspective.
His process begins with curiosity. Pulling from across genres, scenes, and formats to build something that isnāt predictable. From there, it becomes a balance.
For him, Oto is defined by that unknown. A place built for the community it serves.
Recorded on-site. Led by Kurtis Mast, President of Noddle Hospitality.
CHICAGO/MADISON was a movie. MIDWEST LOVE IS REAL! We had so many beautiful friends come out to experience the shows and support. Met some incredible artists, management, and staff along the way.

My partner in crime @daltontaylor.wav asked me to contribute a mix to his āPAYDAYā series on soundcloud. This mix is for fans of the hypnotic and strange side of techno. The roots are tribal, but the melodies are from a distant planet. Follow the black rabbit š³ļø

Iāve been seeing this place @stvitustulsa through the glass and kept thinking⦠āThese cats are onto something specialā¦.I NEED to visitā. The homies @heartwerkdj and @vylan_sound gave me a shot and wowā¦. I didnāt expect the insane amount of love that poured into the place. The community in Tulsa is very strong and excited to have a space where techno can thrive. Itās rare to see and I believe they arenāt sleeping on that. THANK YOU TULSA! Till next time š¹š
IN THE LOWEST FERNS has become my home away from home. The community is strong and the talent is A1. Thank you to the entire @nomada_us team for being innovative.

My set from Tokyo Beer Labās Brewcast is now live on YouTube (link in bio)! Due to some tech issues (100% my fault), i didnāt get the opportunity to capture Kafeleās audio. He really went in on that horn! It was special to hear in the house. Thank you to the @tokyobeerlab crew. Also to @heartwerkdj for the rec! LOVE YOU TOKYO! šÆšµ
