DJ Marco Mei presents his new show from 19 December 2020 on Scientific Sound Asia. Scientific Sound Asia is an Asian electronic music radio station, promoter, DJ agency and music-news platform connecting audiences across Asia and internationally.
With close to three decades of experience at the time, Marco Mei was an Italian DJ and producer with a longstanding interest in Afrobeat, Reggae, Funk, Disco, early Hip Hop and electronic music. During the early 1990s, he began working as a DJ and played at venues across Italy.
Marco developed his craft through festivals and clubs around the world, appearing alongside Roger Sanchez, David Morales, Ralph Falcon and Sander Kleinenberg. A residency at Pacha Club in Sharm el-Sheikh during the early 2000s became an important stage in his international career.
His subsequent touring included appearances at OBS 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. These bookings placed him before audiences in a wide range of club settings.
In 2009, Marco joined Stefano Ugliano, also known as 6884, to form the production duo Bicycle Corporation. Together, they produced more than 50 tracks and remixes that gained recognition from established artists in the house music scene.
Marco moved to Taipei, Taiwan, in the early 2010s and regularly played at clubs and venues across the city. His weekly programme spans Deep House, Tech House, Afro House, Melodic Techno, Nu-Disco, Indie Dance, Electronica and Techno.
Based in Taipei, Marco works across a wider South East Asian network built through clubs, events and regional electronic music activity. He is available for bookings through the DJ agency and broadcasts a weekly show through the radio station.
The programme opens with Teddy Pendergrass’s I Don't Love You Anymore in Damian Lazarus’s Re-shape before Re.you’s The Night We brings in Melodic House and Techno on Moon Harbour Recordings. Celvin Rotane’s I Believe in the Fanatic Funk Remix then leads into Tiga’s Colours So Bright, an Indie Dance selection released through BEAT Music Fund.
KiNK’s Perth follows on Running Back with a direct House Music foundation. Marco Faraone and Greeko’s Armaghetton in Aeroplane’s Extended Remix shifts towards Nu-Disco through Glitterbox Recordings.
Marco Faraone’s Want Me on Rekids introduces Peak Time Techno before Mark Flash’s Heat Signature brings raw, deep and hypnotic Techno from the Detroit Techno Funk Association. Mathias Kaden’s Blackbox on Pets Recordings then turns towards the firmer club construction of Tech House.
Catz 'n Dogz follow with their Darius Syrossian remix of Chueca, another Pets Recordings contribution with a Tech House focus. DJ Godfather’s Back It Up featuring Ricky Burns and Friendzone featuring King Saadi deepen the central club section before Jesse Perez’s Tongue Tied arrives on BEAT Music Fund.
Leftwing : Kody’s Keep Pushin' On on Lost Records and Deeper Purpose’s Elevate on Catch & Release keep the rhythm concentrated on Tech House. Alessio Bianchi’s Move On then brings a Deep Tech House entry through Hibe Records.
Bastian Bux and Roland Clark’s The Source lead into Goldfrapp’s extended vocal mix of Strict Machine, bringing a vocal-led electronic contrast to the later section. Olaf Orbit’s Olaf on Tom Tom Disco returns the selection to Nu-Disco before The Twins appear with Naughty's Italo Disco Mix of Face To Face Heart To Heart.
Tilman and Rhode & Brown’s Paradise Space Center on Shall Not Fade introduces Deep House in the final stretch. Tommy Tickle’s Trace, Roland Leesker and Marvin Jam’s Crazy, and Ad4’s Dance featuring Junior Paes close the programme with a final run of club-focused material.
