Dadub

Our aim is to go beyond def­i­n­i­tions and com­mer­cial stereo­types asso­ci­ated with techno and elec­tronic music, show­ing on the dance­floor a sen­si­tiv­ity and an aes­thetic approach usu­ally related to exper­i­men­tal music practices.

The project was orig­i­nally set up in 2008, in Mur­gia (South Italy) by Daniele Antezza, debut­ing on the label Aqui­et­bump with a col­lec­tion of elec­tronic dub songs revolv­ing around mid-tempo pace. In 2009 he moved to Berlin, and joined by Gio­vanni Conti they trans­formed Dadub into a duo, shift­ing the musi­cal direc­tion from pure dub into more exper­i­men­tal ter­ri­to­ries, becom­ing one of the core artists of the label Stro­bo­scopic Arte­facts, and work­ing on the post pro­duc­tion and mas­ter­ing of all the releases of the label.

Dadub debut on vinyl, “So the noth­ing grows stronger remix”, was released by Stro­bo­scopic Arte­facts in March 2010, host­ing on the other side of the record the techno pio­neer Luke Slater: De:bug reviews Dadub track as “Berghain sound of the forth­com­ings months”. Feed­backs have been excel­lent: enthu­si­as­tic reviews on De:Bug and Clash Mag­a­zine and appear­ances into impor­tant Pod­casts and DJ charts (Chris Liebing, Lucy, Xhin, Wal­ter Ercol­ino, Phlow​.de, FWD​.DJ, Blindspot, etc…)

Besides Dadub project, Daniele and Gio­vanni esta­bil­ished a mas­ter­ing and audio post-production stu­dio, Arte­facts Mas­ter­ing, forg­ing the sound of sev­eral euro­pean record labels: Stro­bo­scopic Arte­facts, Par­quet, Meer­estief, Lin­eal and many oth­ers.
The duo is actu­ally work­ing on new tracks to be released in the upcom­ing months, and will tour Europe in the next months. Aside from EP for dig­i­tal and vinyl for­mats, Dadub is work­ing on a ful­l­length album to be released in 2012 by Stro­bo­scopic Artefacts.
