Robs' 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 brands 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, where he lost his right leg which was amputated above the knee. Rob Ótico experienced complications adjusting to life without his leg which led him to believe it was time to hang up the headphones. However, a combination of Rob Ótico’s burning passion for dance music and advances in medicine meant Rob managed to undergo a groundbreaking type of surgery called OsseoIntegration. This allowed him to begin walking again and amidst all of this, he was hosting 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 (of joy) into the performance which has been a career highlight to date. With a renewed passion and drive to pursue his DJ career this has led Rob Ótico into the studio, locked away crafting his uniquely vibrant high-energy brand of techno. Expect to hear more from Rob Ótico soon, as nothing will get in the way of sharing his love for techno and he can’t wait for you to join him.
