We know what you’re thinking. SebastiAn is back? Well, yes, maybe, and no.
First off, yes. Last week, Nike posted a new video, retelling the story of Blaise Matuidi, the French footballer who currently plays for French club, Paris-Saint Germain F.C. Throughout the video, Matuidi’s narrative is accompanied by an impressive revamp of Earth, Wind & Fire’s smash hit, Shining Star. After some research, we quickly found music credits listed in Adweek’s recap of the feature – guess who appears in the music credits? None other than the incredible producer, SebastiAn.
Then, there’s the maybe. In 2013, Ed Banger label head, Pedro Winter aka Busy P, took to Reddit to chat with fans about upcoming shows, Club 75, forthcoming music, and much more. One thing that caught our attention was that Winter’s mention of SebastiAn’s studio work:
“Yes Yes, SebastiAn is working hard. He just produced an album for French singer, Philippe Katerine – you can hear it here.”
So, it seems that there is an inkling that SebastiAn has new work produced, but a good portion of it may be unreleased.
But, along with that, there’s the big no. We haven’t really heard a ton of original work from SebastiAn, and patience is definitely thinning. Luckily, the French talent has given us a spark of hope with his latest remix, Shining Star (SebastiAn Remix). Tune in below to hear it for yourself:
Holy fucking shit.
