Maurice Aymard – Between Stars [2013]
‘Between Stars’ is the debut album from Barcelona based Venezuelan producer and DJ Maurice Aymard. More than two years in the making, ‘Between Stars’ has been a labour of love for Aymard as he travelled the globe to collaborate with musicians and singers in Barcelona, Berlin, London and Venezuela who could help to bring his vision to life.
Released on Aymard’s own Galaktika Records (Garnica, James Teej & more), ‘Between Stars’ was recorded entirely live and features contributions from the likes of Brazilian star Gui Boratto, Columbian singers Andrea and Paulo Olarte, Argentian guitarist Mariano Godoy and many more, the resulting album takes the house music template and expands it to a grandiose level. With his debut album Aymard looks set to secure his position as one of the scene’s most innovative artists .
Maurice Aymard & Gui Boratto – Home
‘Home’ is the new single from Maurice Aymard and Gui Boratto, and is the first release to be taken from Aymard’s forthcoming debut album ‘Between Stars’. Released on Aymard’s own Galaktika Records, ‘Home’ was recorded during a flying visit to Barcelona by the Boratto, the Brazilian producer taxiing straight from the airport to Aymard’s studio for an intense 24-hour session. The result is a dreamy slice of laid back, late-night house music that floats along on a bed of languidly funky bass, soft pads and smoky keys.
"I’ve known and been a huge fan of Gui for several years now. He released an EP on Galaktika way back in 2007 and remixed my own track, ‘Put Some For Jules’ in 2010, so when I was recording this album I knew I had to get him on it somehow. Luckily despite his crazy schedule we managed to get him to Barcelona We didn’t have much time, but got straight to work in the studio and well… It’s Gui, everything he touches is magic!"
For the single release Aymard has also called upon the Berlin based British producer Jay Shepheard to remix the track and the result is a stunning deep house workout from the man, whose own debut album ‘Home & Garden’ was released to critical acclaim earlier this year.
