Marco Mei presents his 2020 Show 08 on Scientific Sound Asia, originally broadcast in February 2020. Scientific Sound Asia is an Asian electronic music radio station, promoter and music-news platform connecting audiences in China, Thailand, Taiwan, Korea, Malaysia and the wider region.
Marco, an Italian DJ and producer with over 25 years of experience, was influenced by Afrobeat and the emergence of electronica during his early teens, which led him to begin DJing in the early 1990s. During his formative years, he performed extensively across Italy and at festivals and clubs worldwide, sharing stages with Roger Sanchez, David Morales, Ralph Falcon and Sander Kleinenberg.
During the early 2000s, he secured a residency at Pacha Club in Sharm-El-Sheikh and played at nightclubs worldwide, including Arcan in Saigon, Fuse in Brussels, Room 18 in Taipei, Shore Club in Hoi An, Bangaluu in Berlin, G-Star in Pattaya, SOS Supper Club in Bali and NLO in Minsk. These appearances placed him alongside prominent figures from the international electronic music scene.
With Stefano Ugliano, Marco formed Bicycle Corporation, a duo responsible for more than 50 tracks and remixes recognised by respected producers and DJs. He has spent much of the past decade based in Taipei, where he performs frequently and forms part of the DJ and producer community associated with the radio station.
His weekly show spans Deep House, Tech House, Afro House, Melodic Techno, Nu-Disco, Indie Dance, Electronica and Techno. The programme brings these styles together through selections intended for both club settings and radio listening.
DJ Marco Mei's 2020 Show 08 episode opens with Evin Saunderson featuring Innercity’s Save Me, before Donald’s House brings Piano Parfait on Touch From A Distance. Darius Syrossian follows with the House Music cut Soul Fire on MOXY MUZIK, while Parris Mitchell Vs. Nina Kraviz’s Jamie Jones Tribute To Aaron Carl remix of Feel My Butterfly introduces Techno through Snatch! Records.
Richy Ahmed’s Technique on Knee Deep In Sound moves into Tech House, followed by T E S T P R E S S’s Burners 4 Breakfast. Unknown Artist’s Happyrave on QC Records returns to House Music before Ejeca’s Ekstac on Skint Records adds a Dance record.
Biesmans supplies Technician On A Mission on Watergate Records, bringing Indie Dance into the programme. Angelov’s Retrida on Diynamic then introduces Melodic House and Techno, before Cajmere and Gene Farris appear with Gimme Your Luv and Ian Pooley’s Daft Punk Mix of Chord Memory on Force Inc. Music Works returns to Techno.
Andre Crom’s 1989 on Off Recordings raises the pressure through Peak Time Techno, followed by Fideles’ Indie Dance track Brain Machine on Correspondant. Jam & Spoon featuring Plavka bring Right In The Night in the Morttagua remix, while Sunscreem’s Patrice Bäumel Renaissance remix of Perfect Motion on Renaissance adds Minimal detail.
Mona Vale’s Christian Nielsen remix of Mercenary on Cherry House Records restores Tech House before Sudo’s Terminate on Set About Music returns to Peak Time Techno. Silva DaDj’s Lost For Words on Sunclock introduces Afro House, followed by Lxngtn featuring Fares on To Me.
Black Coffee and Nathan Adams sustain the Afro House thread with Afraid Of The Dark on Universal Music, before DJ Romain and Darryl D Bonneau bring It's The Spirit on Nu Faze Records back to House Music. Norty Cotto and Oscar P close with La Clave on Selektor Music, and, based in Taipei, Marco works across a wider South East Asian network while remaining available for bookings through the DJ agency and broadcasting his weekly programme through the radio station.
