WANT TO KNOW MORE???



Born in the capitol of El Salvador in 1969, Mauricio Aviles immigrated
with his parents to San Francisco, California in 1973. Growing up in the
Mission District, he was constantly surrounded by the latin rhythms of the
barrio. His father had a company that produced theatrical and musical
events that featured 'la cultura latina', and eventually Mauricio became
involved with his father's creative enterprise, helping to produce several
festivals and concerts in the Bay Area. The people and the music of this
period provided the foundation for Mauricio's involvement in the City's
burgeoning dance scene that evolved throughout the 90's.

As a dj Mauricio's first actual gigs began at the City's bastion of
underground vibration, the EndUp. As a protege of Arron Olivares, Mauricio
began forming his own sounds and creating a devoted following that are
still with him today. His next regular residencies were simultaneously
Corazon, a latin flavored weekly in the heart of the Mission District, and
Metrojazz a very popular and original weekend event that successfully
combined down tempo, abstract beats and house, a hybrid that would
eventually become to describe the 'San Francisco Sound'.

Acknowledging the urban, afro origins of dance music, with a personal
blend of his own latino roots, and a constant endeavor to break new
ground, Mauricio's sound is hauntingly personal, emotional and
consistently fresh. Creating a niche within the deep house sound, his
style, though ethereal, is undeniably funky and always elicits a great
response on the dance floor.

Now with an internationally successful compilation under his belt (Naked
Music's Nude Dimension II), Mauricio has begun his production career with
a debut single slated for release in Summer 2001. As an emissary for Naked
Music, Mauricio has also commenced a global tour, ensuring that America's
hottest new dance label is well represented.
