OTT

[psytones]

Hi,

 

Just a quick question in the spirit of Neilz - how do you pronounce 'Ott'?

 

When I first found a Ott CD I had no idea who he was, but I knew the name Hallucinogen. So I bought it. Great CD, one of the best.

 

 

From that day I pronounced it OspaceTspaceT. A few years later I read that it was pronounced Ot. Like Lot, without the L.

 

I still say O t t, Even my friends who Ive introduced his music say O t t. I know its in some stage an offence to not take lessen and pronounce it the way it is ment but I like O t t.

 

are you down with the o to the t?

 

Ot OhTeTe

[abasio]

I say oh tee tee

[Insejn]

He said in an interview, he even cursed about it, that it's NOT Oh Tee Tee (O T T). It's Ott. As in otter.

[psytones]

I say oh tee tee

wanna be bff??

 

 

Ohtete him self! insists that we all say Pot without the P

[yerg]

Ott = Odd

[abasio]

ott sounds really retarded (like skylon) so I don;t attribute it with the Hallucinogen in Dub album

[supergroover]

it is Ott (as in lot). If it was Oh Te Te, it would have been written OTT.

imho

For anyone with the Twisted 2007 DVD, he explains this. Ott, written "Ott", rhyming with "snot".

[Insejn]

Snot, where he found the etnics samples.

I always pronounced it as Ott. O T T sounds kind of dumb to me. If his work was all labeled OTT then maybe i would say Oh Tee Tee. But it isn't, so I don't. And it makes me happy that he says it's pronounced Ott.

I'm going out on limb here because I've never seen it confirmed, but I think he named himself after Jonathan Ott, an ethnobotanist and psychedelic researcher....that's why I've always said Ott like "ought"

[bwhale]

OTT != Oh Tee Tee

O.T.T. = Oh Tee Tee

 

A LOT of cover artwork uses purely capital letters.

 

"Hey look guys, it's Hallucinogen Eye En Dee You Bee Em Eye Ex Eey Dee Bee Why Oh Tee Tee!!1!"

[yerg]

"Hey look guys, it's Hallucinogen Eye En Dee You Bee Em Eye Ex Eey Dee Bee Why Oh Tee Tee!!1!"

:lol:

[supergroover]

have you seen ?

the whole sentence is in CAPITAL LETTERS. THEN YOU CAN'T WRITE Ott.

 

if it would have been oh tea tea. I thought it would stand for 'off the track'.. not sure why though

The OTT is bolder though and could be misconstrued

Bold, italic what ever... they are still capital letters :P :P :P :P :P :P

 

 

 

 

 

 

but if you want to have the last word i ll shut up

[buzzman]

It's a last name, so pronounce it the way you want to I would say it is like "Oatmeal"---> "Ott" --Meal

[Drosophila]

first time I heard somebody call him O.T.T. I had no idea who he was talking about very odd indeed

[RTP]

I always pronounced it simply "ott", like in Otto without the last o. No O.T.T., oh tee tee, oh tea tea, oh titty or whatever...

 

And I find it god that the guy himself wants it pronounced like that aswell. Although I don't give very much about his work...

[yerg]

oh titty

Hilarious topic
