JD Twitch (Optimo Music) Mix
JD Twitch is one half of acclaimed DJ/Remix duo Optimo. They've released a number of fantastic compilations and remixed tracks by Peter, Bjorn, & John, Florence & the Machine, and Liquid Liquid. Optimo (Espacio) is also the name of the legendary club night Optimo have been hosting at Glasgow's Sub Club for over a decade. This night, in my humble opinion, is the Helen of Troy of club nights; "the night that launched a thousand nights."Runaway Exclusive
Runaway is the collaboration between DJs Jacques Renault and Marcos Cabral, whose tribal disco house sound is so sincere, intense, and DIY that they've been a key ingredient in DFA's second wave. Their "Brooklyn Club Jam" single was widely-considered one of 2008's sickest bangers, 2009 found them remixing a slew of tracks, and 2010 will see the arrival of their debut album.
Andy Votel exclusive mix
World Psych vinyl-vulture, DJ, recording artist, and record producer Andy Votel drops an original mix of way out B-Music for KCRW listeners.
Program Details
Host
Working as a KCRW DJ is a dream come true for Mario Cotto, a preacher’s kid from North Philadelphia.
A former middle school teacher and improviser, Mario moved to LA to pursue a career in sketch comedy. He started volunteering at KCRW, assisting longtime DJ's Eric J. Lawrence, Jason Bentley, Chris Douridas and Tom Schnabel. Once Mario realized he was spending more time at the station than at the theater, he knew this was where he belonged.
