Otto Spooky is the 18th studio album by the avant-garde artist Momus, released in 2005. He describes its style as "chanson concrete": a blend of his love of songwriters such as Jacques Brel and Serge Gainsbourg with his love of musique concrète that has been motivating his radical use of studio techniques to alter sound for years.[3] It has been described as, "a few steps further from the mainstream than Oskar Tennis Champion."[3]
