Marco Mei has published the tracklist for episode 6 of 2021, broadcast on Saturday the 6th of February. Scientific Sound Asia is an English-language electronic music radio station, DJ agency, music news outlet and events promoter covering electronic music across Japan, China, Thailand, Taiwan, Korea, Sri Lanka and beyond.


An Italian DJ and producer with more than thirty years in the industry, Marco Mei built his sound around afrobeat, funk and early electronic music long before he stepped behind the decks professionally. His DJ career began in Italy in the early 1990s, expanding outward as his reputation grew across the international club circuit.


Pacha Club in Sharm-El-Sheikh provided an early international platform, and subsequent years brought appearances at venues including Woo Bar, Fuse in Brussels, Room 18 in Taipei, Bangaluu in Berlin, G-Star in Pattaya, SOS Supper Club in Bali and NLO in Minsk. The artist roster he has appeared alongside reads broadly, from Roger Sanchez and David Morales to Harry Choo Choo Romero, Justin Berkmann and Funk D'Void.


Bicycle Corporation, his production project with Stefano Ugliano, known as 6884, came together in 2009 and was quickly picked up by 17:44 Records. The partnership has since placed releases on Alchemy, Miniatures, WL77, GrooveTraxx, Suka and Revox, covering territory from deep and tech house to French house and techno, with backing from names including Dubfire, Axwell, Danny Tenaglia and Above and Beyond.


His Taipei base has been home to Ciao Taipei, a party that became a fixture in the city's underground scene from 2013 and helped grow his network across Southeast Asia. Bookings are handled through the Scientific Sound Asia radio station and DJ agency. Follow him on Facebook.


Marco Mei's show from 6th February 2021 opens with Earl Tutu and John Khan's What A Difference featuring Mike City in the Jerome Sydenham Vocal Remix on Liquid Deep, the Soulful House warmth of that track establishing the show's groove-led tone from the outset. Seemenot's Borderline in the Roman Flügel Remix on Brainstream Music follows, the Jamaican-Canadian vocalist's debut single reframed here within a Deep House context that suits the show well.


Nitro Deluxe and Norty Cotto's Let's Get Brutal in the Norty Cotto Afro Tech Aim Edit and DJ Seven Chicago's The House That Jack Built bring a Jackin House and Chicago House energy before Those Guys From Athens's Who & What shifts the register towards Tech House. Kiko Navarro's Sex & Love Affair and Ron Disko's Keep Pushing Love in the Digital Disko Mix sustain the groove-led direction before Blaze Presents Udaufl's Most Precious Love featuring Barbara Tucker in the Sebastian Creeps and Julian White Remix delivers the set's second Soulful House moment.


Illyus and Barrientos and Danny Howard's Feel Ma Boogie and Dance System and Mark Broom's Never Ever carry the set deeper into Tech House before Brokenears's Let Me Tell and Duke's So In Love With You in the Full Intention Remix bring the House Music energy forward. Husky and Mr. V's We Rave Tonight in the Alaia and Gallo Remix and Oscar L's Bass Power sustain the Tech House direction through the mid-section.


Ben Hemsley's Through 2 You and Lee Foss and Ferreck Dawn's The Void featuring Alex Mills in the Marco Faraone Remix carry the set forward before Piem's King Of My Castle provides another Tech House anchor. Age Of Love's The Age Of Love in the Franky Rizardo Flow Edit arrives as one of the more unexpected selections of the show, the 1989 trance classic given a contemporary progressive reframing that connects the genre's earliest days to the present.


Rhodas's Spectra and Paul Svenson's 1972 shift the mood into Deep House and Nu Disco territory before Pysh's Foreign Land in the Huntergame Remix sustains the deeper direction. The Housemartins's Change The World in the Dino Lenny Edit closes the episode, the British indie pop group's 1988 track recontextualised within a Disco and House framework in keeping with Marco Mei's consistent willingness to reach outside the conventional electronic music canon.


The 6th February show is a wide-ranging piece of programming, covering Tech House, Soulful House, Jackin House and Deep House across a tracklist that spans over three decades of dance music history.
