Album Description
Available in:
Total is the debut album of French electronic artist Sebastian. The album was released in Europe on 30 May 2011, and in North America on 7 June 2011 by Ed Banger Records. The album was announced in February with the release of an "X rated" teaser. This was followed with a video for the first single "Embody" directed by So Me, which was released on 4 April with remixes from DJ Premier and Kavinsky.The album features M.I.A., Mayer Hawthorne and production from Gaspard Auge of Justice.

The cover art was photographed by Jean-Baptiste Mondino. The image of SebastiAn kissing himself has sparked some controversy, misunderstanding and confusion among fans and viewers. SebastiAn elucidates the cover art in an interview:

I rarely do things for a specific reason: for a start, the idea of a double kissing itself represents my vision of the artistic posture; it’s a type of serious joke on the relationship that an artist has with his ego. Also, my first covers were a tracing of my face, so I wanted to follow that idea with a photograph while adding something new. When you play a game, you should play it all the way or not at all. So, for instance, even if you don’t like your face you should embrace it, emphasise it, even! The choice of black and white is to break with the often very colourful graphics of techno. The cover signed by Mondino symbolises the total desire of the creator, the absolute ego of the artist who kisses and devours himself.
