SEAN CHRISTIAN COOK, OTHERWISE KNOWN AS MI5TERGONE, BEGAN HIS MUSIC CONCEPTS WHILE ATTENDING HIGH SCHOOL IN HOT SPRINGS, ARKANSAS. HE WROTE NAIVE MELODIES FEATURING MATURE ARRANGEMENTS FOR JUST BEING A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT. IT BECAME EVIDENT THAT COOK'S MUSIC WOULD BE SOMETHING OF AN ACQUIRED TASTE. HIS EARLY SONGS, ALTHOUGH CLEARLY LACKING TECHNIQUE, WERE NOT LACKING IN INNOVATION.

IN 1993, COOK RELEASED HIS FIRST SELF-PRODUCED, FINANCED, RECORDED, AND DISTRIBUTED CASSETTE ONLY RECORDING TITLED "SCREEN MEMORY". "SCREEN MEMORY" GAINED CRITICAL ACCLAIM IN VARIOUS ARKANSAS MUSIC REVIEW PUBLICATIONS WITH ITS QUIRKY MELODIES AND INNOVATIVE ELECTRONIC ARRANGEMENTS. AT THIS POINT COOK'S ALTER-EGO WAS KNOWN AS VISIONARY, WHICH IS WHAT HE RECORDED "SCREEN MEMORY" UNDER.

MANY YEARS LATER COOK BEGAN RECORDING AND PERFORMING IN A BAND HE CO-FOUNDED WITH HOT SPRINGS NATIVE TIM BAYLESS, CALLED LIBRA1. LIBRA1 TOURED THE SURROUNDING STATES BY PERFORMING AT GOTHIC-INDUSTRIAL CLUBS IN VARIOUS SOUTHERN CITIES. LIBRA1'S PREMIER COMPACT DISC, "THE INNER SANCTUM", GAINED AMAZING REVIEWS IN MANY NATIONWIDE ZINES. STARVOX.NET CLAIMED LIBRA1 WERE "POSSIBLY THE BEST DARKWAVE BAND EVER...", IN MAY 2001, UPON THE RELEASE OF 'THE INNER SANCTUM". THE GOTHIC PRESERVATION SOCIETY GAVE LIBRA1 A SIMILAR REVIEW.

ALTHOUGH LIBRA1 IS STILL TOGETHER, COOK (WHO NOW CALLS HIMSELF MI5TERGONE) HAS PRODUCED YET ANOTHER COMPACT DISC, TITLED "FREEZE". "FREEZE" IS A DISC FULL OF CLOSURE. IT FEATURE
