Sebastian Komor: A Multifaceted Artist in the Electronic Music Realm
Early Life and Artistic InfluencesSebastian Komor, born in the vibrant city of Oslo, Norway, has always been drawn to the expressive worlds of music and visual arts. Moving to Fredrikstad in 1981, he found a creative haven where he could nurture his passions. From the surrealism of Salvador Dalí and Pablo Picasso to the evocative illustrations of Dave McKean, Komor's artistic sensibility was shaped by a diverse range of masters.
Musical Beginnings
In 1989, Komor's musical journey officially began with the release of his first recordings. One of his early projects, LV-426 (later renamed Sector9), brought him into contact with Andy LaPlagua, the future frontman of Icon of Coil. Together, they collaborated on the project, culminating in the hit single "Shallow Nation."
