Starting as a teen playing bass guitar in a punkrock band inspired by The Clash he found his way to listen to some serious dub producers such as King Tubby, Lee Scratch Perry and Mad Professor that inprinted forever the musical roots and inspired the mixing techniques of Dubmaster Conte. "Ecotrip" released in 2000 was his first solo autoproduced album, containing a collection of earlier dub/trip hop songs with an ambient flavour.

At the same time he started to put down the foundations of Entheogenic Sound Explorers an ambient electronic duo, inspired by the music of The Orb, The Future Sound of London and various ambient Artists (Oophoi, Brian Eno, Aphex Twin,...). Actually Entheogenic Sound Explorers published 4 albums for the Dutch label Databloem (2007-2013) and recently a new EP for Bass Star/Geomagnetic records (2014).

In 2002 he moved from Milan to Amsterdam were he met Mc Tabbloyd, a Jamaican singer and producer. Together started the Dmt Sound System which participated at different gigs and acts (they were a finalist in the 2004 Diesel U Music Award in Amsterdam). Back in Italy in 2006 they won the first prize as urban act in the Diesel U Music Awards Italy.

From 2005 to 2009 Stefano has been beatmaker and producer for the hip hop acts Hinterland Milano and for Il Buon Garzone.

In 2008 he started with the former member of Entheogenic Sound Explorers a new live band where Dubmaster Conte took back his first musical passion: the bass guitar. The band name is Liquid Rainbow, the musical style is a mix of electronica, psychedelic rock and, of course, dub. Four albums were published between 2009 and 2014. On the album "8x8" he mixed 8 dub versions of the original Liquid Rainbow songs with his unique style.

Finally in 2014 he released with Magnatune his second solo album "In Dub" where he plays, mixes and dubs all the tracks. A work completely dedicated to his first musical and genuine love : Dub Music
