Anybody know anything about what Ott’s up to?  Heard he was sick a bit ago, hope he’s better, just curious if there had been any news anywhere on what he’s working on.  I know the Umberloid album has been rumored for a long time now, not sure if there’s been any progress.  Also heard that he was working on material for a new album, just wanted to see if anybody knew anything more specific.

also Ott just got done mastering Hoopy Frood’s new album Indigo, which should be out June 18th.

thats all I’ve heard; any more info would be appreciated.

Wow, Neon Tetra is an awsome track. Hearing more from them will be nice.
When I saw Ott a few months back I talked to him about new material and just said that “oh you know me, could be 2012 before a new album comes out”.
Should be nothing short of another masterpiece im sure.

Where did you hear that? I’ve been waiting for that album since it got announced. Their website only states

but it looks as though May or June are the most likely

but if that June 18th date is sort of confirmed, it would be great!

I saw that June 18th release date on Soundamus, and they gave me an Amazon link that also says June 18th, but I wouldn’t hold your breath for that day, since the band themselves haven’t announced an official date. I would hope that it will be out before June is over though, cant wait to hear it.

I last talked to Ott a couple of months ago on facebook, but when he got sick he also deleted his facebook account for some reason :/ Anyway last I heard was that the Umberloid album was nearly done. Haven’t heard from him since March or April, I don’t remember. He got sick and had to cancell his USA tour.

Would like to hear something new soon as the Twisted schedule has not much happening?

Wow, I saw Ott live last night for the first time and it was insane.  Everything I hoped for and more, he really puts on a great live performance.  He did a version of Spannered in Pilton where he added a fast breakbeat throughout the second half and there was an interlude with the breakbeat and a fast synth line, don’t know if anybody else has heard this version of the track, but look out for it at his live performances, it was definitely a highlight.
