Bicycle Corporation has revealed that DJ Jasmine Li will be the guest for episode 73 of their 'Foundations' series. Scientific Sound Asia operates as an Asian DJ agency, promoter, and electronic dance music genre station, broadcasting both regionally and internationally.
Bicycle Corporation consists of the Italian duo composed of DJ and Producer Marco Mei and the skilled Stefano Ugliano using the alias 6884. Together, they have produced more than 50 tracks and remixes spanning various genres such as Deep House, Tech House, French House, Melodic, and Techno.
During the early 1990s, Marco embarked on his musical career as a DJ and producer, performing at local events. Over time, he expanded his repertoire to include afrocentric, techno, and house music, organizing events with his group 'Urban People' throughout Italy.
Following his success in his native country, he secured a residency at the renowned nightclub chain Pacha. Subsequently, he moved to Africa to kick off his residency in South Sinai, Egypt, specifically in Sharm el Sheikh. His residency and his reputation for igniting the party scene led to international DJ bookings and propelled him into a worldwide musical journey.
Stefano, who was born and raised in Torino, Italy, showed great musical talent from a young age. He enthusiastically studied classical piano, percussion, and drums, finding joy in both Chopin's compositions and the rhythmic beats of the West African Djembe.
Nevertheless, the image of the DJ captivating the audience became increasingly fascinating to young Stefano. He pondered whether those electronic beats, which were rare on Italian radio stations in the '90s, could lead to a completely new phase in his life. After meeting Marco, Bicycle Corporation was born.
Even though Marco and Stefan are now widely recognized worldwide, they still remember their humble beginnings as teenagers exploring electronic music. Lately, they have been revisiting some of their earlier songs and have even established a Bandcamp page to share them.
Their Foundations show highlights some of the biggest electronic music artists across Asia playing a variety of genres including Melodic Techno, Tech House, Melodic House, Arabica House, Organic House, Afro House, Techno, and House, among others.
