Optimo the club always booked live acts rather than DJs and over the years it ran as a weekly club put on literally hundreds of bands. Perhaps as a result of this we get a lot of bands approaching us wanting to collaborate. The time felt right to start an offshoot label purely dedicated to bands. We are therefore delighted to present our new imprint: Optimo Music Rocks!

First up on the label is Edinburgh based Bikini Body, a live tour de force and no slouches in the studio either. ‘Mr Tinnitus’ is a digital taster of their upcoming full ‘Weird Party’ EP which will also receive a very limited vinyl release a little later in 2024.

We asked Bikini Body to tell us about the upcoming EP, and ‘Mr Tinnitus’.

‘Weird Party’ is a collection of tried and tested Post-Funk Punk tracks, each with a personality that evokes the oddballs and tearaways you met at that weird house party the other week. ‘Mr Tinnitus’ leads the record with Disco doggerel and plenty of cowbell, signalling our desire to be dancier than Post-Punk and Punkier than dance. Personal experience of disappointing encounters, chauvinist male stereotypes and gendered ideals pepper the remaining tracks without compromising the irresistible groove inherent to the Bikini Body sound. 

We made this record with our good friend and intuitive producer, Chris McCrory, at Green Door Studio in Glasgow. Capturing the live sound was at the heart of the recording process, and it is a joy to finally usher these songs from the dancefloor to your turntable. The release was mastered by the legendary Bob Weston.


“Mr. Tinnitus” is backed with a Dub version mixed by Joe Ariwa. Joe Ariwa is a young sound engineer / producer bringing a youthful, fresh & exciting style to dub music! He is also Dub legend Mad Professor's son.

Released 09/02/2024. Full EP and vinyl released later in 2024.

Optimo Music Rocks 001 - Bikini Body - Mr. Tinnitus / Joe Ariwa Dub

Hi dears, hi guys, hi people.Welcome to my music podcast - “The inside”  I recorded it several years ago and was hesitating to release it because of the harsh ideas and concepts.  It consists of several composers who inspire me, fill me and teach me unconditionally.  This music podcast is about our inner depth of infinite consciousness.  This podcast is about what we keep inside of ourselves.  This podcast shows how rich is our nature: from love to pain, from birth to rebirth.  And if we try to focus on the contents within ourselves, we will be able to see the greatest luminous lotus flower.  When I start creating it, I wanted to do something similar to the movie but through the art of music.   I wanted to approach creation like a composer or sculptor, like a Buddhist mahasidha who preserves and fills everything with the energy of life.   I felt that I want to write something homogeneous for the beginning and ending of each composition, where the each next was born from the previous one and symbolized our past lives and rebirths.   This podcast directs us to become aware of ourselves, aware of our nature from the very beginning.  You will understand it by the breathing of the main character, who enters smoothly deep inside himself.   Just listen and enjoy the journey. Thank you.

Desaparición Incompleta

The track "Sadness" (Beatless Ambient Version) completely strips away the rhythmic anchor, resulting in a work of pure, suspended emotion. The sonic journey unfolds within a vast, frozen soundscape of melancholy. Deep feelings are expressed through slow-moving, massive drone textures, and heavily-processed, sustained tones that hang in the air, saturated with reverb and delay. It is an act of deep, profound sonic immersion, where the listener is left adrift in a beautiful, overwhelming sadness. This version is a true ambient catharsis—a deep breath taken in the face of immense feeling.

Sadness ( Ambient Version )

Ambient soundscapes for your pleasure. Relax, chillout and enjoy.
