About Sebass

Since 1992, Sebass has produced more than 100 tracks and collaborated with some of the French electronic music stalwarts like Jack de Marseille & Claude Monnet. Resident DJ in the early 90s in several mythic clubs from southern France, he shared the decks with Laurent Garnier, St Germain and Darren Emerson to name a few. Musician, producer and sound engineer, he's also known for his love for analog synths. He relaunched his career in 2019 on Family Piknik Music with a first EP, after his long friend Tom Pooks challenged him to play Live on Family Piknik stage for 2019 Opening Concert along with Marc Romboy, Agoria, Johannes Brecht, Anna & Matador. Boosted by this opportunity, he then released a few other tracks and remixes for the label in order to build a brand new Live Act he experienced for the first time through an impressive video broadcast recorded from Corum's rooftop in Montpellier. From Deep-Progressive to Acid-Techno, Sebass has a global approach and an unique musical background which makes each of his performances a real trip. In 2023, with Tom Pooks , they came to a new alliance while gravitating around the Awesome Soundwave’s whole crew. Having Carl Cox as his master mind for always, Tom Pooks approved the king’s recent switch from deejaying to live performing and he immediately challenged his long-time friend to follow this path. Thanks to Sebass’s knowledge when it comes to live electronic music and studio engineering, they quickly built Harmonik Kontrol, their new musical alias. Premiered on Family Piknik Festival’s main stage in August of 2023, this live performance got to impress by its rare fluidity. A techno energy melt with emotional harmonies and healing frequencies. A fusion between Sebass’s orchestral melodic vision and Tom Pooks’s love for contagious grooves. A perfectly balanced trip through dubby influences and catchy drops, laying these two skilled artists to a satisfying crowd control. A shared state of mind and a clear vision of where techno music should lead the dancefloors to, with a futuristic approach deeply fed by three decades of club culture. With a first studio album expected to land in 2024 on Awesome Soundwave, the HarmoniK Kontrol magic will strike on a few selected stages through the upcoming months. Beware of the side effects, Tom Pooks & Sebass are in full control to play with your emotions. Just let them do !
