SebastiAn (born Sebastian Akchoté) is a French musician, DJ, and record producer known for his eclectic and sharp-edged electro sound that has been shaping the landscape of modern electronic music since the mid-2000s. His aggressive approach to house music, characterized by heavy use of distortion and intricate production, has earned him a solid position among the ranks of the French touch artists. SebastiAn's contributions have not just been restricted to the world of electronic music; he has also made significant inroads into the fashion industry, notably with his ongoing collaborations with Saint Laurent, creating soundtracks that capture the brand's aesthetic for various men's and women's shows, which are displayed in his most recent releases like "SAINT LAURENT WOMEN'S SUMMER 24" and "SAINT LAURENT MEN'S SUMMER 24."

Beyond his fashion-related work, SebastiAn has maintained a steady output of music that continues to push the boundaries of genre and style. His discography includes a number of critically acclaimed albums and EPs that display a breadth of influences, ranging from electro to disco to experimental. His ability to blend these into his own unique sound is evident in tracks like "Tropic" and "Dancing By Night," both of which showcase his signature blend of beats, and in remixes such as "Beograd (Upsilone Remix)." SebastiAn's influence extends beyond just the realm of music production; his remix of the classic "What A Wonderful World" demonstrates his versatility and his capacity to reinterpret timeless standards through a contemporary lens. With each new release, SebastiAn continues to surprise and captivate audiences, solidifying his status as a transformative figure in both the music and fashion worlds.
