Bicycle Corporation has released the playlist of music for their next 'Roots' show. Scientific Sound Asia Radio is the English language Asian electronic music station, promoter, and DJ agency for Sri Lanka, Japan, Singapore, Thailand, India, South Korea and the rest of Asia with a global following.
Bicycle Corporation is an Italian duo of the DJ and Producer Marco Mei plus the skilled Stefano Ugliano aka 6884. The production duo has released an impressive catalogue of over 50 tracks and remixes, spanning a variety of electronic genres including House, Techno, Tech House, and Deep House, among others.
In the early 1990s, Marco embarked on his musical path as a DJ and producer. Following his debut, he initiated his own events under the collective name 'Urban People' across Italy.
This brought him notoriety and secured him a residency at Pacha in Egypt, which resulted in international DJ bookings. This embarked him on a musical journey across the globe.
Growing up in Torino, Italy, Stefano showed remarkable musical talent from a young age. He pursued classical piano, percussion, and drums with fervour, adoring Chopin's compositions and the tribal rhythms of West African Djembes.
Yet, the image of 'the DJ on stage performing' became increasingly captivating for the teenage Stefano. He pondered whether those electronic beats rarely heard on ‘90s Italian radio stations, would open a new chapter in his life, leading to his meeting with Marco and the creation of the Bicycle Corporation.
The track list for the next show is laid out below and represents the 'Roots' of their sound and the genres they have drawn influence from in their electronic releases. These genres include Funk, Disco, Soul, Afrobeat, Electro, Rare Groove, Hip Hop, and Afrocentric. Bicycle Corporation is available for booking via our DJ agency for Asia.
This episode highlights Bicycle Corporation's ability to weave together a vast array of genres into a cohesive and captivating listening experience. From the irresistible grooves of Afrobeat and Brazilian Jazz to the soulful undertones of Funk and Disco, each track resonates with a unique energy.
Whether it's the instrumental brilliance of The Alan Parsons Project and Booker T & The MG's or the Samba-infused rhythms of Jorge Ben Jor and Sergio Mendes, this episode reflects an enduring appreciation for globally influenced music. The seamless transitions and carefully curated re-edits add a modern flair, making it an ideal soundtrack for both introspection and celebration.
