Otto Dix is a Russian darkwave music trio. Named after the expressionist painter of the same name, they are notable for their androgynous singer, believed to be either a countertenor male or a contralto female.
The band was founded by singer Michael Draw (born Mikhail Sergeyev) and composer Marie Slip (Sergey Slobodchikov) in Khabarovsk. After the release of their second studio album the two moved to St. Petersburg and met classically trained violinist Petr Voronov who joined to band. After 6 years of existence Otto Dix has become one of the most famous Russian gothic acts. For the German market Otto Dix are currently signed to Danse Macabre Records, a record label owned by German act Das Ich. The latest album release of Otto Dix in 2011 is Chudnye Dni (Wonderful Days).
