Songs Before Bed

PREORDER — STREET DATE JUNE 12th

Songs Before Bed (2022) marks Otto Benson’s first physical release under his own name, following earlier work under aliases including Memo Boy, OTTO, and Pudding Club.

Originally published as a digital-only release through Otto’s own WNOADIARWB website and platform on New Year’s Eve 2022, SBB bridges the gap between the more experimental psychedelic electronic works of OTTO and his most recent release, the acclaimed Peanut, released on NYE 2025. (As is his tradition, Otto self-releases a new album every New Year’s Eve as a gift for his listeners.)

Blending brief pop fragments with melodic bedroom guitar, droning ambient shoegaze textures, and blissful IDM jaunts reminiscent of the Rephlex catalog, the album offers a seamless overview of Otto Benson’s genre-defying sound. Originally conceived as a late-night record, Songs Before Bed (2022) is a rewarding listen at any hour.

Remastered for vinyl by Stephan Mathieu and pressed on Sonopress EcoRecord, an environmentally conscious alternative to PVC, special care was taken by Palto Flats and Otto Benson to make a sustainable product without sacrificing any sound quality.
