Artist History Raffaele Ferro and Matteo Magni formed Dubital in 1993 as a Dub interpretation of a Dancehall production. The first demos were, in fact, created solely for the use of several local DJs (Dr. Felipe, Rankin’ Alpha, etc). The band’s encounter with Suite Inc. was instrumental in the transformation of their sound and helped it evolve from electronic dub into a sound that acquires its own originality, drifting away from classic dub while simultaneously remaining faithful both to Dub roots and mentality. Dubital began working on harmonies and melodies and this atmosphere becomes an indelible mark, perfectly fused with an atmosphere that links the infinite dimensions of Dubital’s sound to an energetic electronic sound. Thus the pair became a band and they began to perform live. Applying Dub Theory to the live show, the concert becomes transformed into a true mixing session, where both mixer reigns on stage and dub master continuously interacts with the other musicians, turning them into "living channels". From the first performances – B Movie Show with Minox and 4D killer – to the most recent, the live show has evolved and now includes scenographic elements and a video staging which is exclusively produced and executed by Suite Inc. After the first live shows, the band begins an in-studio experience which is in great part, a re-elaboration of much of the material which had previously been produced in Dubital’s home studio, recorded on a 4 track system. The project involves Mad professor, an historical figure on the international dub scene. He worked in the studio with Dubital for two days realizing various mixes of "Boss Dub", and "Ignoranza & Cultura" and creating "X.tra Boss", his first true "ambient" experience.
