DJ Marco Mei presents his 2020 episode 34 on Scientific Sound Asia. Scientific Sound Asia is an Asian electronic music radio station, DJ agency, promoter and music-news platform connecting audiences across Asia and internationally.
Marco Mei is a DJ and producer from Turin, Italy, with nearly three decades of experience behind the decks. In his early teens, he became absorbed in Afrobeat, Reggae, Funk, Disco, early Hip Hop and the emergence of electronic music.
He began his career as a disc jockey in the early 1990s and performed throughout Italy during his formative years. A residency at Pacha Club in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, followed at the beginning of the 2000s.
Marco subsequently performed internationally at venues including Observatory in Saigon, Fuse in Brussels, CE' LA VI in Taipei, Shore Club in Hoi An, Bangaluu in Berlin, G-Star in Pattaya, Woobar in Bali and Global Dance Moscow. He has shared the decks with Roger Sanchez, David Morales, Ralph Falcon and Sander Kleinenberg.
In 2009, Marco formed the production duo Bicycle Corporation with Stefano Ugliano, also known as 6884. The pair have released more than 50 tracks and remixes, which have been received within the house music circuit.
Based in Taipei after moving there at the beginning of the previous decade, Marco performs at clubs and venues across the capital. His weekly programme spans Deep House, Tech House, Afro House, Melodic Techno, Nu-Disco, Indie Dance, Electronica and Techno.
Marco Mei's 2020 episode 34 playlist opens with Antton feat. Kraftwerk's Instagram Girl vs The Model in the Kraft Re Vamp on Freaky Culture. Mike Dunn's If I Can't Get Down in Mousse T.'s Funky Shizzle Mix and The Goodfellas' Soul Heaven in the David Penn remix establish a House Music foundation through Classic Music Company and Saifam Dance.
Jerome Sydenham's It Looks Like Dub, in the Katsuya Sano Disco Edit for Ibadan Records, leads into Louie Vega and George Lamond's Woman in the David Morales remix on Vega Records. Kiwi's Hello Echo feat. Bestley on KOMPAKT introduces an Electro shade before Paul Johnson's Disco Juice on Confidential Records restores the house-led rhythm.
MastroMauro's Can You Feel It on kluBasic Records sits alongside Loods' Lucid on SPINNIN' DEEP, shifting the programme towards Indie Dance. Peggs feat. Madonna's Hung Up edit on Bandcamp is followed by Kiwi's Down with the Rhythm on KOMPAKT, keeping this middle passage centred on the latter style.
DJ Matt Black's 2AM on Trax Records brings a more direct Tech House turn, before Groove Committee's I Want You to Know in the Larry Levan edit arrives via Unkwn Rec. Off Point's Disco Driver on theBasement Discos supplies the set's Nu-Disco entry, while AFAMoo's Keep The Fire Burning on Bandcamp returns to house material.
Floorplan's Save the Children on M-Plant and The Mekanism's Missing Love in the Musumeci remix on Needwant carry the sequence from House Music into Indie Dance. Radio Slave's Wait A Minute on Rekids then introduces deep, hypnotic Techno, before Skream and Jackmaster's The Attention Deficit on CircoLoco Records returns to Tech House.
Da Hool's Meet Her at the Love Parade in the Dekova 2020 Rework on Blanc precedes Ronnie Spiteri's Breathe in the wAFF remix on We Are The Brave, which raises the intensity into Peak Time Techno. Antonio Pica's Friends on Dirtyclub Music, Funk Hunk's Night People on Spa In Disco and DJ Deeon's Licky Licky in the Amine Edge DANCEs Codeine Juke Edit on CUFF lead to Dennis Ferrer feat. Dawn Tallman's Sunny Days on Defected and Double Dee's Found Love feat. Dany in the Dimitri From Paris Club Mix on Groove Culture.
