Optimo Music is the label run by Keith McIvor, a.k.a.JD Twitch of Glasgow's DJ and production team Optimo. Releases have so far been as a eclectic as the duo's fabled sets, including neo-disco by Den Haan next to re-issues of Throbbing Gristle's Chris Carter.

If you are based on the planet's northern hemisphere like we are, chances are you're either looking for a melancholic soundtrack to the greyness outside or some cheerful music to counter its adverse effects right now.
Either way, this month's releases more...
Optimo admirably dig out Throbbing Gristle's Chris Carter's epic 'Moonlight' - originally released on 'Mondo Beat' in 1985, its synth-wave purity landing in this decade sweeter than ever. Two remixes accompany, US duo Neurotic Drum Band imbue a disco shimmer and Oneohtrix stretches it raw and grainy. Hats off.
