Personnel include: Sebastien Schuller (vocals, various instruments); Evan Evans (acoustic guitar, electric guitar); Richard Cousins (bass guitar). On hearing the opening salvo of minor-key piano chords, the listener can assume that Parisian Sebastien Schuller's latest, HAPPINESS, has a title loaded with intended irony. This is no emotional walk in the park. Ear candy aplenty awaits, however, as ever-shifting soundscapes and over-digitized beats pulsate beneath Schuller's angelic vocal swoops. His voice--at times reminiscent of Antony's--and the seamlessly combined elements of French pop and experimental electronica make HAPPINESS worth the price of admission. 颇具调侃味道的专辑名称-Happiness，其实作品的音乐一点都不Happy，反而会搞到你潸然泪下，这种伤感和下面的Maximilian Hecker音乐杀到抽丝的伤感又有不同的聆听感觉，来自法国的音乐人Sebastien Schuller在专辑中应用了大量的合成器编曲，以中性的节奏缓慢向前推进，调制出一种浓浓华美氛围之下的落寂和哀伤，藉由这张专辑更是有这么一句话来形容音乐上的感觉：Sebastien Schuller Is A Warm Gun。
