About: Optimo (Espacio)

JG Wilkes, performing as Optimo (Espacio), has spent nearly three decades cutting across genres - from krautrock and dub to house and post-punk - and is widely regarded as one of the most distinctive selectors in club music. The Glasgow act built its name across 550 Sunday nights at the Sub Club and has toured clubs and festivals worldwide ever since.
