Brendon P, a guest DJ for Bicycle Corporation, will be hosting episode 104 of 'Electronic Roots'. Scientific Sound Asia is a radio station, DJ agency, and promoter dedicated to electronic dance music genres, catering to both local and international audiences in the Asian region.
Bicycle Corporation is a dynamic Italian DJ and production duo comprising artists Marco Mei and Stefano Ugliano, who is widely recognized as 6884. Throughout their extensive music career, the talented duo has created an impressive repertoire of more than 50 compositions, encompassing various genres such as French House, Deep House, Tech House, and Techno.
Marco embarked on his professional journey in the early 1990s, starting as a crew member for House Music and Techno events such as 'Urban People.' As time went on, he made a name for himself in the music industry and quickly became highly sought after throughout Italy. However, his success didn't end there. Marco's talent and popularity earned him international bookings, allowing him to showcase his skills across the globe.
Stefano, hailing from Torino, Italy, displayed early potential as a burgeoning musician. His fascination with the world of music quickly consumed much of his free time. He delved into the study of classical piano, percussion, and drums, while also developing a deep admiration for the works of Chopin and the West African Djembe.
However, despite his deep passion for various genres of music, Stefano had a special affinity for one particular aspect: the DJ behind the turntables. This fascination captivated the teenage Stefano like nothing else. The beats emanating from the DJ's music were rarely heard on Italian radio stations during that era.
It would appear to be an impossible dream for many to produce those sounds or perform them in front of a large audience. However, Stefano refused to be discouraged. He possessed a clear vision that he was determined to bring to fruition. Through relentless effort, unwavering commitment, and after meeting Marco, Bicycle Corporation was born.
Despite their current achievements, Marco and Stefan have not overlooked their modest origins. Recently, they have been revisiting their earlier compositions and have even established a Bandcamp page to disseminate them.
