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.

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.

Exciting new project on the always inventive Optimo Music label. A bunch of kids, aged between 10 and 25, came together in The Green Door Studio in Glasgow recording brilliant cover versions of stone cold classics by ESG, The Monks or The Stooges. Very inspired, crude and deadly.

Originally recorded between 1974 and 1978 and released on a 90 minute cassette tape, Optimo re-issues 'The Space Between' by Throbbing Gristle's Chris Carter. Remastered, rechristened, and selecting the album's best tracks, this is a must-have for all krautrocktronica and new-wave heads.
