//. Optimal West is a visionary project focused on a story line that gives the listener a perspective of the inner guidance for the present moment. As we grow up, life can be sometimes confusing, and people might get trapped in their head of negative elements. For these moments, the best way to understand the meaning of the situations is to musically adapt and work on yourself, based on the fundamentals of classical masterpieces, road-trips experiences or cinematic influences.
