Bicycle Corporation has announced guest DJ Jasmine Li for their 'Foundations' episode 73. Scientific Sound Asia is an Asian electronic music station broadcasting for the region and internationally.
Bicycle Corporation is an Italian duo of the DJ and Producer Marco MEI plus the talented Stefano Ugliano with the moniker 6884. The Italian duo have released over 50 tracks and remixes across many genres including Deep House, Tech House, French House, Melodic and Techno.
In the early nineties, Marco was starting his musical journey as a DJ and producer at events at home. After a while, he began doing his events with his cohorts known as 'Urban People' across the whole of Italy.
This earned him a good name as a disc jockey and he gained a residency at the global club brand Pacha, in Daar es Salaam, Egypt. His residency and his reputation for getting the party moving gained him DJ bookings internationally and launched him on a musical mission globally.
Born and brought up in Torino, Italy, Stefano in his childhood displayed a wealth of abilities with music. He studied with passion classical piano, percussion, and drums, he loved his Chopins and West African Djembe.
However, that figure of the disc jockey rearing the crowd proved more and more enchanting for the teenage Stefano. He wondered if those very electronic beats, so hard to find on ‘90s Italian radio stations, would open an entirely new chapter in his life, and then Bicycle Corporation evolved.
Despite their global recognition, Marco and Stefan have not forgotten their roots as teenagers new to electronic music. Just recently they’ve been going back over some of their earlier tracks and even set up a Bandcamp page to distribute them. Their Foundations show features popular DJs and producers from around Asia who are connected with the electronic music scene.
