In the artist's words:

OTTOLIEN are the brothers Leo and Jonas. One is a producer, rapper and beat maker and the other a cerebral lyricist and guitarist. In their lyrics, double rhyme structures meet a visual language that does not shy away from any pop-cultural reference. OTTOLIEN fly inland by hanging from a windmill, manage to use the word "Jack Wolfskin jacket" lyrically and are always wonderfully self-deprecating. They almost casually write their Easter Eggs lyrics on great melodies that you never want to get rid of. OTTOLIEN take the listener into their family, whose musical family tree must consist of DIE TOTEN HOSEN, WIR SIND HELDEN and MAECKES.
