Bicycle Corporation announce guest Brendon P for Roots 115.

Bicycle Corporation has announced that guest DJ Brendon P (details below) will be showcased in their 'Roots' 115 show. Scientific Sound Asia functions as an Asian electronic dance music genre radio station, DJ agency, and promoter serving the local and global music communities.

Bicycle Corporation is comprised of DJ and Producer Marco Mei and Stefano Ugliano, who is also known as 6884. They have collaborated on over 50 original tracks and remixes within the House Music and Techno sub-genres.

During the early nineties, Marco began an influential musical adventure that would define his career as a DJ and producer. Fueled by a deep love for electronic music, he committed himself to refining his skills and developing his distinctive style.

With his vision and determination leading the way, Marco established 'Urban People,' a group that would be known for pioneering music events and memorable moments. Starting with small underground gatherings, 'Urban People' united individuals who had a common passion for electronic beats and captivating rhythms.

Having gained recognition in his native country, Marco landed a residency at the prestigious nightclub franchise, Pacha. Subsequently, he travelled to South Sinai, Egypt, more precisely Sharm el Sheikh, to commence his residency there. His remarkable talent for energizing the nightlife scene resulted in international DJ bookings, launching him into a global musical adventure.

Stefano, a native of Torino, Italy, was immersed in a rich musical environment from the moment he was born. Growing up in this culturally vibrant city, he quickly discovered his innate musical abilities and passion for the art form.

His journey into the world of music began at a tender age when he displayed a remarkable talent for various instruments. His dedication and enthusiasm led him to delve deep into the realm of classical music, focusing on piano, percussion, and drums.

Stefano's musical pursuits were not just a hobby but a way of life, shaping his identity and defining his purpose. His love for the works of Chopin was evident in the way he interpreted and played the compositions with profound emotion and technical prowess. Moreover, Stefano's exploration of the West African Djembe introduced him to a whole new world of rhythmic patterns and cultural expressions.

The intricate beats and soulful melodies of Djembe resonated with him on a profound level, inspiring him to incorporate these elements into his own musical creations. Through years of dedication and practice, Stefano honed his skills and developed a unique musical style that seamlessly blended classical influences with the vibrant rhythms of West Africa.

However, the sight of the DJ mesmerizing the crowd started to intrigue young Stefano more and more. He wondered if those mysterious electronic rhythms seldom played on Italian radio stations in the '90s, might open up a new chapter in his life after encountering Marco and observing the growth of Bicycle Corporation.
