the lab
my h·lab studio, located on the inspiring surfing coasts of ericeira, is centered around capturing magic, performance, and connections. i like to treat music not only as a pleasure but also as a profound holistic tool. frequencies, specific practices, micing, producing, and mixing techniques are employed to sublime sounds for a more conscious use. my aim is to create an environment where artists can explore their creativity freely and deeply, capturing moments of inspiration and translating them into transformative musical experiences.
i’m sebastien, a swiss multi-instrumentalist, producer, and music researcher currently based in portugal. my journey in music has taken me from studying in london to conducting research for my master's degree and touring around the world. my focus is on capturing sounds, moments of magic, and supporting artists in their creative journey. i believe in the power of music to transcend boundaries and touch souls, striving to imbue every project with care, passion, and musical insight.
my personal philosophy is rooted in the belief that music is a journey of exploration and expression. i approache each project with an open mind and a commitment to supporting artists in realising their vision. whether it's through attentive listening, skilled production techniques, or simply providing a warm and nurturing environment, i aim to uplift and elevate every creator’s work. creating a space where artists can feel comfortable and inspired is essential to the creative process.
