OTR, an enigmatic and rising star within the electronic music scene, crafts an emotive and cinematic sound that resonates with listeners worldwide. The artist, known offstage as Ryan Chadwick, began his musical journey while studying aerospace engineering at the University of Cincinnati. It was during this time, living in a particularly isolated part of campus, that he found solace and expression in music production, turning his small dorm room into a personal studio—the initials OTR reflecting this period of seclusion and creativity, standing for "Off The Record."

OTR's music delicately balances between the introspective and the expansive, weaving together lush electronic textures with heartfelt melodies. His discography, marked by releases such as "First Time - OTR Remix," "Leave You Behind," and "Heart (Alternative Version)," showcases his proficiency in creating atmospheric soundscapes. The track "Broken," in collaboration with Au/Ra, and its subsequent reinterpretations—including the stripped version and RAC Mix—highlight his versatility and ability to experiment within the electronic genre. With each release, from "Be Quiet, They're Listening" to "Apart Of Me (feat. Devault)," OTR continues to explore the depths of human emotion, making his music not only a journey through sound but also an exploration of the self.
