Bicycle Corporation introduce guest DJ Camelia for her second 'Roots' show this Sunday. Scientific Sound Asia is the Asian electronic music station, promoter, and DJ agency for Sri Lanka, Japan, Singapore, Thailand, India, South Korea and Asia with an international folowing.
Bicycle Corporation is an Italian duo of DJ and Producer, Marco Mei and Stefano Ugliano, better known as 6884. In their years of releasing music, the pair have produced well over 50 tracks including French House, Deep House, Tech House and Techno.
Marco started his career in the early 1990s by working as crew for events such as ‘Urban People.’ Over time, he gained recognition in the music scene and gradually became sought after throughout Italy. However, his success didn't end there; after achieving significant acclaim in his homeland, Marco soon began receiving international bookings worldwide.
Stefano, hailing from Torino, Italy, displayed potential as an aspiring musician from a young age. He developed a strong passion for music, which quickly consumed much of his free time. He learned classical piano, percussion, and drums, and held a deep admiration for both Chopin and the West African Djembe.
Despite his passion for various types of music, there was something unique that Stefano adored above all else: the DJ. The art of spinning the wheels captivated the young Stefano, as those beats were rarely heard on Italian radio stations of that era.
Creating those sounds, much less performing them in front of large audiences, might seem like an impossible dream to many. However, Stefano was not discouraged; he had a vision he was determined to fulfill, and through hard work, dedication, and sheer tenacity, Bicycle Corporation was born.
Even with all their success today, Marco and Stefan have not forgotten their humble beginnings. Just recently they’ve been going back over some of their earlier tracks and even set up a Bandcamp page to distribute them. Bicycle Corporation are available for booking via our DJ Agency for Asia.
Guest DJ Camelia.
This week's guest DJ is Camelia, an emerging talent in the electronic music world. Born in the 1990s in western France, Camelia's musical journey took a pivotal turn in 2014 when she relocated to Montreal. There, she immersed herself in the dynamic electronic music scene, sparking a passion that would define her artistic direction.
After returning to France, Camelia committed to music production, debuting in 2019 with the Consciousness EP on Undersonic Records. Since then, her career has flourished. She now hosts the weekly Rebirth Radio Show on Ibiza Global Radio and Café Mambo Ibiza, connecting with audiences worldwide.
Camelia's artistry is profoundly influenced by a diverse musical heritage, including jazz, blues, Detroit house, deep house, and African sounds. These varied influences shape her distinctive style, merging soulful grooves with experimental soundscapes.
Her live performances have earned her recognition on platforms like Mondonero, where she frequently performs, and at exclusive events for esteemed brands such as Moncler and Sampling Moods. Sampling Moods, an organization focused on art and culture, offers an ideal setting for her blend of music with creativity and expression.
Her latest release, Drop the Mask on Rebirth Records, showcases her evolving sound. The track embodies the essence of NYC deep house, enhanced with experimental ambient effects, minimal rhythm percussions, dreamy pads, and ethereal voices that feel otherworldly. It’s a sonic journey that highlights her skill in creating immersive and emotive music. Camelia has hinted at more releases in the coming months, promising exciting new explorations of her continually evolving style.
Camelia’s talent for blending influences, experimenting with sound, and deeply connecting with her audience makes her one of the most promising talents in electronic music today. We are thrilled to feature her guest mix this week; sit back and let her music take you on a journey!
In 'Roots' Episode 059, Camelia seamlessly blends a rich array of genres, creating an engaging and multifaceted soundscape. The episode begins with the warm, jazzy vibes of St Germain's "Street Scene (4 Shazz)" and transitions into the Detroit-inspired grooves of Moodyman's "Holiday." This captivating mix continues with Afro-Latin rhythms in Gilles Peterson's Havana Cultura Band's "The Rumba Experiment (Motor City Drum Ensemble Remix)" and funky edits like Marcel Vogel's "If You Like."
The second half delves deeper into experimental textures with Soul Of Hex's "The Third Eye" and builds toward a dynamic close with the minimal yet powerful beats of Josh Wink's "Hyperloop Reknik." Whether you're drawn to soulful melodies or cutting-edge electronic sounds, this episode offers an inspiring journey through Deep House, Nu-Disco, and beyond, celebrating the evolution of groove-driven music.
