Bicycle Corporation has announced that guest DJ Brendon P will headline their upcoming 'Roots' 80 show. Scientific Sound Asia Radio operates as an underground radio station and DJ agency, serving the Asian Region and beyond, with a reach extending to international audiences.
Bicycle Corporation is an Italian duo consisting of DJ and producer Marco Mei and Stefano Ugliano, also known as 6884. They are renowned for curating a diverse catalogue of over 50 releases across various genres such as Techno, Deep House, House, Melodic, and French House.
Marco began his career in the early nineties, getting involved as a crew member for House Music and Techno events like 'Urban People.' As his influence grew within the music scene, he became a sought-after figure across Italy. However, Marco's journey didn't stop there; building on his success at home, he quickly gained international recognition, securing bookings across the globe.
Stefano, originally from Torino, Italy, showed early talent as a young musician in his childhood days. He displayed a deep passion for the musical arts, devoting a significant amount of his free time to honing his skills. Stefano's musical exploration included studying classical piano, percussion, and drums, with a special admiration for the Chopin compositions and West African Djembe rhythms.
Yet, amidst Stefano's exploration of diverse music genres, one passion eclipsed all others: the magnetic allure of DJing. As a teenager, Stefano became entranced by the art of spinning records. The pulsating beats and rhythms emanating from the turntables were a rarity on Italian radio stations during that era, intensifying Stefano's fascination even more.
For many, the idea of crafting and performing such sounds, let alone sharing them with audiences, might have seemed like an unattainable dream. However, Stefano persisted, fueled by a vision he was determined to bring to life. With steadfast commitment, unwavering dedication, and sheer tenacity, Bicycle Corporation became a reality, embodying the duo's relentless pursuit of their musical ambitions.
Despite their current success, Marco and Stefano remain rooted in their humble beginnings. Recently, they've revisited some of their earlier tracks, showcasing their gratitude for their musical journey. Moreover, they've set up a Bandcamp page to distribute these tracks, offering fans an opportunity to reconnect with their origins.
