Rob Ótico is a Bristol (UK) based DJ and producer with an exceptional talent for weaving between genres.
Centring on techno, his sound also pulls from progressive, hard and psy trance blending gorgeous breakdowns with driving basslines and gut punching drops.

​

His love affair with all things electronic began from an early age from playing on decks at his local youth centre to spending his student loan on a set of Numark BluDog’s. Rob Ótico was a natural on the decks landing DJ gigs playing at renowned venues Club X, Hippo Club, Purple Turtle and for historic brand Ripsnorter. At this time he was known for his hard dance style playing alongside legendary names Mark EG and Uberdruck.

​

Unfortunately, Rob Ótico’s DJ career came to a grinding halt after a horrific bike accident, resulting in his right leg being amputated above the knee. Rob experienced complications adjusting to life without his leg, which led him to hang up the headphones. 
However, a combination of Rob Ótico’s burning passion for dance music and advances in medicine allowed him to begin walking again after 8 years. He then hosted his own club night which incredibly he managed to warm up for John 00 Fleming during his post-op recovery period, putting blood, sweat and tears into the performance which has been a career highlight to date.

​

Whether behind the decks or on the dancefloor, Rob brings a massive amount of infectious energy and character wherever he goes, which is why (along with his glowing prosthetic leg), he has become one of the most recognisable people on the scene
