This week the dnb community got some terrible news with the unexpected and untimely passing of the super talented Optiv. He was a founding member of Cause4Concern andf then solo as Optiv but released many albums/tunes with BTK (as well as continuted work wiith CZA from C4C).

So I took the opportunity to go through his huge body of work and use this weeks show to pay homage to him and his legacy of amazing tunes. There are tunes he’s written, tunes of his that have been remixed and tunes that he has remixed. This is as many as I could get through with 2 decks and a bit under 2 hours but I could have gone on for hours more such is the immenseness of his production. RIP ;-(
