We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: Surprise music is the best music! That said, Otto Kinzel shocked the music world as he released an unexpected new track this week….well, maybe pleasantly surprised fans of his previous solo releases (You can read our takes on those here), his work in Dust Prophet, and more is probably the more accurate statement.
