Optimo

JD Twitch and JG Wilkes are the Optimo head honchos. These guys are genuinely eclectic and are known for playing fun records across all genres, as well as being one of the few djs around to utilize ableton effectively.

They set up Optimo (Espacio) in November 1997 and it continues to take place at the Sub Club in Glasgow every Sunday. They got their name from a song by Liquid Liquid which sums up how they wanted the core of the night to sound - raw, percussive, sleazy. Its a sound that us here at Space Camp are big fans of.



Check out their mix
