Terence C, a guest DJ from Bicycle Corporation, is poised to present his upcoming programme, Electronic Roots 127, on Scientific Sound Asia. Renowned as Asia's foremost electronic dance music station, as well as a promoter and DJ agency, Scientific Sound Asia engages with audiences both locally and internationally.
Bicycle Corporation is a collaboration between Italian DJ and producer Marco Mei and accomplished producer Stefano Ugliano, also known as 6884. Together, they have produced and remixed over 50 original tracks within the House and Techno genres, making a significant impact on the electronic music landscape.
Marco commenced his DJ career in the early 1990s, inspired by the rise of electronic music and Afro-centric rhythms. As he entered the industry, he founded Urban People, an organisation that hosted House and Techno events across Italy. This initiative allowed Marco to deepen his understanding of sound and refine his event management skills, ultimately leading to a residency at Pacha in Egypt.
This pivotal role bolstered his reputation, opening doors to international DJ opportunities that marked the beginning of his global career. His tenure at Pacha ignited a fervent desire to share his talents with audiences worldwide.
Stefano, originally from Torino, Italy, exhibited exceptional musical aptitude from a young age. Encouraged by his parents to pursue a musical career, he devoted himself to classical piano, percussion, and drums, drawing inspiration from a diverse range of musical styles, including Chopin and West African rhythms. This rich foundation has profoundly influenced his contributions to electronic music.
Stefano's early exposure to various music genres laid a robust groundwork for his artistic journey. His fascination with electronic music began in the 1990s, a time when it was rarely featured on Italian radio, yet its rhythms and melodies captivated him.
Despite their numerous accomplishments, Marco and Stefano remain grounded. They have revisited some of their earlier works, reaffirming their commitment to their musical roots. Recently, they launched a Bandcamp page to showcase their creations, underscoring their dedication to preserving their artistic legacy.
Electronic Roots, hosted by Marco and Stefano, is a radio programme centred on House and Techno, providing a platform for prominent artists across Asia. This initiative celebrates the dynamic Asian electronic music scene and fosters international connections and collaborations.

Zouk is globally recognised among electronic music aficionados, primarily due to its dynamic live performances. Terence's association with Digweed underscores his influence and vital contribution to Malaysia's vibrant nightlife scene.
Before the pandemic, Terence partnered with DJ XU, a prominent figure in Kuala Lumpur, to co-host monthly Techno events at Zouk titled "We Love Techno." This event was designed to introduce audiences to the underground sounds of labels such as Drumcode and Cocoon Recordings.
Under Terence's guidance, "We Love Techno" evolved into a premier platform for innovative electronic music and emerging Techno artists. Terence’s expertise, combined with DJ XU’s influence, enriched Kuala Lumpur’s electronic music scene and offered fans an unforgettable auditory experience.
Terence began his career in 1998 under the mentorship of DJ Chris Doss, quickly gaining recognition in Malaysia. He frequently performed at venues such as Cubeat and Globar, steadily advancing within the music industry.
A pivotal moment in Terence's career occurred when he was selected to open for David Morales at his inaugural show in Malaysia. This opportunity catapulted Terence into the limelight, solidifying his prominence in the local electronic music scene.
In the early 2000s, Terence gained further acclaim as a resident DJ at Movement Club in Malaysia. He also performed at notable venues such as Backroom, Nouvo, and Atmosphere, playing a crucial role in the vibrant electronic music landscape of Malaysia.
Terence's influence extends beyond the nightlife of Kuala Lumpur, impacting the broader Southeast Asian music scene. He has played at prestigious venues like Lush in Singapore and Liquid in Ho Chi Minh City. In 2005, he co-founded Altered Image, an audio-visual project that merges innovative sounds with captivating visuals.
By collaborating with artists Callen Tham and Digital, Terence transformed performance art into a multimedia experience with considerable impact. Altered Image won the Malaysian segment of the Heineken Thirst competition, leading to a tour across Southeast Asia.
Altered Image revolutionised the electronic scene with cinematic visuals, turntable expertise, and live effects that captivated audiences on the dance floor. This achievement marked a significant chapter in Terence's creative journey, enhancing his artistic legacy.
Recently, Terence has embraced the Ableton Live production suite, refining his technical skills to elevate his sound. By integrating software with decks and CDJs, he continually pushes the boundaries of live performance.
Terence's production efforts are gaining momentum, with multiple new releases expected in the coming year. Audiences in Southeast Asia can anticipate a deeper connection with his evolving sound.
As a prominent DJ in Malaysia, Terence is rapidly establishing himself within Asia's electronic music scene. His radio show on our station, featuring House and Techno, exemplifies his dedication to exploring innovative sounds.
Electronic Roots 127 with Terence C begins with warm and textured Deep House as Mundos Sutis' "Round Colours" (Pablo Bolivar Dream Dub) creates a deep, hypnotic groove. The mix gradually builds momentum with Onur Ozman’s "Bir Tawir" (Luca Bacchetti Endless Remix) and Damian Lazarus & Jem Cooke’s "Searchin'" (Radio Slave Remix), introducing smooth Melodic House & Techno elements.
The journey continues into a dynamic mix of House and Progressive House, with Steve Bug’s "The People's Sound" bringing a classic house groove before the deeper, driving sounds of Circulation’s "Glitch" (Jim Rivers Colour Spectrum Remix) and Sasha & Marsh’s "Dead Synthy" (Extended Mix) enhance the mix’s layered energy. Moshic’s "I Met You On The Heel" and NUFECTS & PAUL (AR)’s "Something Different" (Jamie Stevens Remix) deliver deep, evolving progressions.
The second half of the set introduces hypnotic, raw, and deep Techno, featuring Reset Robot’s "Dragging Chords" and Pig&Dan’s "Human Nature," both of which drive the intensity forward. Linear Phase’s "XX 21 A2" and Squal G’s "Face" inject pulsing underground beats, while Wata Igarashi’s "Interweave" introduces a Raw Trance atmosphere, adding a psychedelic twist before the mix closes with the percussive rhythms of Paul Mac’s "Nothing Remains" (Works Of Intent Remix).
