A bit on Dave Aju….
San Francisco Bay Area native Marc Barrite created the DJ/production alias Dave Aju as a vehicle for his unique take on electronic music. Working at his own pace, Dave Aju has come to be known as a reliable source for fresh and expressive sounds, combining knowledge and passion for the roots of dance music culture with a natural fascination with sound and an adventurous approach, unafraid to try new things. A broad palette of outside musical influences can be found in Aju's work, though his jazz upbringing and hip-hop foundation are clearly at the core, with an overall warm, laid back, unmistakably west coast vibe.
Dave Aju remixes, DJ sets, and live performances are currently in demand at labels, clubs, and festivals across the globe, and favored by a number of forward-thinking peers including Matthew Herbert, who has recently commissioned Aju for an EP release. His debut full-length album Open Wide is still causing a stir in the electronic music community after being nominated for the honorable Preis der Deutschen Schallplattenkritik, and praised by both everyday music-lovers and esteemed colleagues for it's bold attempt at bridging diverse sub-genres and the experimental yet effective use of only his mouth and voice as sound sources.
Aju’s recent work includes a stellar remix of Nicolas Jarr’s “Space is Only Noise” and more recently his “All Together Now” a teaser to his upcoming album on Parisian imprint Circus Company. Check out the recent review on Ibiza Voice : http://www.ibiza-voice.com/story/news/3616
