Hailing from Buenos Aires, Argentina, young Sebastian Galante started to study music by playing the piano and percussion at the age of 7. As a young teenager, he moves to Norwich, England, starting to compose piano pieces (focusing on an aleatoric improvisation approach) as well as anything that came to his mind. Here Seph also developed a love for urban music and dance beats. In 2001, with 15 years of age, he returns to his homeland and starts his first electronic productions, working hip hop beats and techno. In 2004, influenced by composers of a whole variety of musical areas (from Erik Satie and John Cage to Michael Jackson, Bjork and Plastikman) he dove into producing dark and funky minimal techno.
In 2005, with only 19 years of age, Seph's debut ep "Goust" is released on Igloo-rec and from then on he becomes one of it..s main faces. Immediately after, he starts to get recognized for his up to 4-hour live sets, playing alongside fellow artists such as Barem, Violett, Dilo etc., and it was also around this time that he formed the audiovisual project Goust A/V with Pablo Denegri. Following his needs to explore other genres, he also started to develop another project, Fes, which is musically the exact opposite of Seph; if Seph is a spooky techno, Fes is a downtempo, melodic, optimistic and much more freestyle project.
2006 sees him participating in “Aires Buenos” (Unfoundsound). Later on this year he appears in Post Office Special Argentina Madness, a compilation that groups the new generation of experimental techno argentinian artists (Telegraph). He works also with Dilo and has also a techno project, Geoph Serge with Jorge Savoretti.
In 2007 he releases on labels such as Stock5, Kalimari, Phonocult, Dumb Unit, 11AM, having presented his live set all over europe and south america in clubs such as Harry Klein (Munich), Fuse (Brussels), City Fox (Zurich), Flex (Vienna), Watergate (Berlin), Gazolder Gallery (Moscow) and he will continue his tour in the USA, South America and Japan, whilst working on his new album.
