Show Notes
In this heartfelt tribute episode of House and Soul Vocalists Living Today, we pause the grooves to honor the indelible legacy of JD Twitch—Keith McIvor, the visionary Scottish DJ and co-founder of the groundbreaking electronic duo Optimo (Espacio)—who passed away on September 19, 2025, at the age of 57 after a valiant battle with an untreatable brain tumor diagnosed just months earlier. Hosted by Elena Voss, we revisit Twitch's electrifying contributions to the global club scene, from his legendary Sub Club residencies in Glasgow that redefined underground house and techno, to his eclectic mixes blending soulful vocals with pulsating electronic edges that inspired generations of selectors.Join us for rare archival clips, reflections from fellow DJs and vocalists who crossed paths with the "King of Eclectic," and a curated playlist of his most soul-stirring sets that capture the raw emotion he infused into every beat. In a year that's already taken too many icons, this episode reminds us why Twitch's spirit will keep the dancefloors alive—untamed, unfiltered, and forever forward-thinking.
