Last week, The Vinyl Factory had Scottish DJing / clubnighting / label running duo Optimo down for a private party.

FACT TV caught up with JD Twitch and JG Wilkes to find out what’s in their record bags at the moment. Delroy Edwards, Charles Cohen and – surprise, surprise – Nurse with Wound feature.

Last year Optimo remixed one third of Jeremy Deller’s English Magic EP, transforming the artist’s lilting steel band cover of A Guy Called Gerald’s ‘Voodoo Ray’ into a luscious, piano-driven acid house belter in the vein of the original. JD Twitch also selected his 10 favourite Scottish records when The Vinyl Factory were up in Glasgow in October.
