Bicycle Corporation has released its playlist for their next 'Roots' show this Sunday. Scientific Sound Asia is the English language electronic music station for Malaysia, China, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, South Korea and the rest of Asia.
Bicycle Corporation is an electronic duo of the Italian DJ and Producer Marco MEI plus the skilled Stefano Ugliano aka 6884. Going back to the early nineties Marco was setting off on his musical journey as a DJ.
He started doing his own nights as an ensemble known as 'Urban People' throughout the whole of Italy. This gained him recognition and he subsequently gained a residency at Pacha, which gained him recognition and DJ bookings internationally and started him on a musical furlough around the globe.
Raised in Torino, Italy, Stefano in his early years displayed incredible abilities with music. He studied with a passion for classical piano, percussion, and drums, and loved his Chopins and West African Djembes.
However, in his teenage years, that figure of 'the guy spinning records' proved more and more intriguing for the young Stefano. He never knew that those very electronic beats, so hard to get on ‘90s Italian radio stations, were going to launch a very new chapter in his life.
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.
Bicycle Corporation’s Roots Episode 22, aired on December 15, 2019, delivers a groovy journey through Disco, Funk, Afrobeat, and Jazz Fusion. Featuring edits and reworks, this episode includes highlights like Herb Alpert’s "Rise (The Reflex Revision)" and Manu Dibango’s "The New Bell" for a mix of Jazz Funk and Afrobeat brilliance.
Disco gems such as The Salsoul Orchestra’s "Ooh I Love It (Love Break)" and Van McCoy’s "The Hustle (David Kust Remix Edit)" bring timeless energy, while tracks like Gal Costa’s "O Gosto Do Amor (Fgon Rework 2019)" and Sivuca’s "Ain't No Sunshine (BC Edit)" add a Brazilian flair.
