Bicycle Corporation has released their playlist for their next 'Roots ' show originally aired on Sunday 10th November and is available on the Mixcloud player below. Scientific Sound Asia is the electronic music station, DJ agency, and event management company for Malaysia, China, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, South Korea and the rest of Asia.
Bicycle Corporation comprises the electronic duo of Italian DJ and producer Marco Mei and the talented Stefano Ugliano, also known as 6884. Tracing back to the early nineties, Marco embarked on his musical journey as a DJ.
After a brief period, he began performing his own DJ sets under the name 'Urban People' across various cities in Italy. His exceptional performances garnered widespread recognition, leading to a residency at Pacha.
Being presented with this unique opportunity was a pivotal moment in his career, opening doors to establishing a formidable international presence in the music industry. Through this chance, he was able to showcase his talent as a DJ on a global scale, attracting attention and securing bookings in various countries worldwide.
This marked the commencement of an exhilarating musical expedition that would take him to different corners of the globe, where he would share his passion for music with diverse audiences and immerse himself in a myriad of cultures and experiences.
Stefano's journey into the world of music began in the enchanting city of Torino, Italy, where he was born and raised. His upbringing was infused with the rich cultural tapestry of the region, inspiring his deep connection to music from an early age. It was evident to all who knew him that Stefano possessed a rare and remarkable talent for music that set him apart from his peers.
From his formative years, Stefano delved into the world of music with an insatiable curiosity and dedication. He spent countless hours honing his skills and expanding his musical horizons, immersing himself in the study of classical piano, percussion, and drums. His unwavering passion for music fueled his relentless pursuit of excellence, pushing him to explore diverse musical genres and styles.
Stefano's musical interests were as eclectic as they were profound, encompassing a wide spectrum of influences. He found inspiration in the timeless compositions of Chopin, allowing the delicate melodies and intricate harmonies to shape his artistic sensibilities. Simultaneously, Stefano was drawn to the rhythmic complexities of West African Djembes, captivated by the primal energy and soul-stirring beats that echoed through his being.
As Stefano entered his teenage years, the image of 'the guy spinning records' became increasingly fascinating to the rebellious young man. Little did he know that the electronic beats, which were difficult to find on Italian radio stations in the '90s, would lead to a completely new chapter in his life.
The following tracklist outlines the foundational elements of our sound and the diverse range of influences present in our electronic music releases, encompassing Funk, Disco, Soul, Afrobeat, Electro, Rare Groove, Hip Hop, and Afrocentric genres. Bicycle Corporation is available for bookings through our DJ agency in Asia.
