DJ Marco Mei presents his first 2021 show, Scientific Sound Radio Podcast 338, on Scientific Sound Asia. Scientific Sound Asia is an Asian electronic music radio station, promoter and music-news platform connecting audiences across Asia and internationally.
Marco is an Italian DJ and producer with almost three decades of experience behind the decks. His early musical interests included Afrobeat, Reggae, Funk, Disco, early Hip Hop and a broad range of electronic music.
During the early 1990s, he began working as a DJ at venues across Italy. He developed his craft through festivals and clubs around the world, appearing alongside Roger Sanchez, David Morales, Ralph Falcon and Sander Kleinenberg.
A residency at Pacha Club in Sharm el-Sheikh during the early 2000s marked an important stage in his career. Further international appearances included OBS in Saigon, Fuse in Brussels, CE' LA VI in Taipei, Shore Club in Hoi An, Bangaluu in Berlin, G-Star in Pattaya, Woobar in Bali and Global Dance Moscow.
In 2009, Marco and Stefano Ugliano, also known as 6884, formed Bicycle Corporation as a production duo. Their studio work has produced more than 50 tracks and remixes, which have received recognition from established figures in house music.
Marco relocated to Taipei, Taiwan, in the early 2010s and played regularly at clubs and venues across the city. Based in Taipei, he works across a wider South East Asian network and is available for bookings through the Scientific Sound Asia DJ agency.
His weekly radio selections range through Deep House, Tech House, Afro House, Melodic Techno, Nu-Disco, Indie Dance, Electronica and Techno. The programme pairs his DJ and production background with an ongoing weekly broadcast through the radio station.
The January 2nd, 2021 set brings together House, Tech House and Electro House material. It includes Adeva’s In & Out Of My Life in Michael Gray’s remix, Boys Noize’s Mvinline and Nicole Moudaber’s I Love.
Marco Mei’s first 2021 show, Scientific Sound Radio Podcast 338 opens with Adeva’s In & Out Of My Life in the Michael Gray Remix, a House Music entry on Easy Street Records. Kapote’s Don Key follows in its Edit on Euro Disco Reworks before Kendal’s Intacto brings an Italo Disco touch through Ritmo Fatale.
Pablo Bozzi’s Last Moscow Mule on Dischi Autunno introduces Indie Dance to the early sequence. Gettoblaster’s Alright Alright, released by Spacedisco Records, then gives the set a firmer Tech House direction.
Nicole Moudaber’s I Love and Mark Broom’s Hear Me bring the middle of the programme into a tougher club-focused passage, with Broom’s track appearing on Rekids. The Unknown Artist’s Untitled on MYEDITS002, Alex M (Italy)’s Love on Too Many Rules and AP’s Make Them Move keep the momentum direct before the next remix.
Boots Kats’ Park Talk in the Johannes Alberts Party Talk Remix appears through House Of Disco Records, followed by Boys Noize’s Mvinline on Defected. Break Machine’s vocal version of Street Dance on Scorpio Music (FR) adds Breaks, while Johannes Albert’s Shan Remix of Wing House on Frank Music returns to the programme’s Indie Dance thread.
Johnny Dangerous’s Emerald City in the Supernova Remix on King Street Sounds leads into Jump Cutz’s Hooked for Luxury Service Records and Justin Unabomber’s Cut 1 on Sprechen. Kassian’s Warehouse Discotheque on SlothBoogie and Kemback’s Demi Riqusimo Remix of Everything on Alfresco Disco then draw the set into Deep House.
Kiwi’s Hello Echo, issued as KOMPAKT423, brings an Electronica accent to the closing stretch. Hercules And Love Affair finish with the Frankie Knuckles Remix of Blind on Parlophone UK, ending the show with a Dance Music reference shaped by an enduring club classic.
