Music I've been playing
Music is my girlfriend!
1) I am a bassist and proud of it. 2) I like to play music very much.
Below you can find several tracks where you hear me playing and sometimes even singing. I can't say that I'm very proud of this music, as I always wanted to play something different. However, often it was quite funny to play and I enjoyed the process.
3) I'm also looking for people to play with. You can read more about my musical preferences and .

"SunCivilian" band (Stockholm, 2008-2009)
I played in this band as a session musician (bassist) helping them to prepare and perform at two concerts in Stockholm in November 2008 and May 2009. The tracks below were recorded during those concerts.
This is plain rock-music, quite boring and outdated. But it was ok to play almost all of it and I even liked some moments in songs as Simultaneously, Saviors & Gallows or Believe Me
| 1 | SunCivilian - She`s Only 18 | 3:21 | 2009 | |
| 2 | SunCivilian - Daddy Don`t Know | 4:15 | 2008 | |
| 3 | SunCivilian - Believe Me | 7:55 | 2008 | |
| 4 | SunCivilian - Mellow Song | 3:37 | 2008 | |
| 5 | SunCivilian - Simultaneously | 3:23 | 2008 | |
| 6 | SunCivilian - Sunshine | 3:49 | 2008 | |
| 7 | SunCivilian - Saviors & Gallows | 10:37 | 2008 | |
Personal stuff (2005-2006)
Me re-playing and re-singing the song from "Kings Of Convinience". Those days I had deep feelings..
| 1 | Sad Panda Band - Winning a battle, Losing the war | 3:26 | 2006 | |
Once Matvey came and propose to sing a cappella some old irish(?) song. So we did.
| 2 | Sad Panda Band featuring Matvey - The River Is Flowing | 2:11 | 2006 | |
I came up with this theme in 20 min. First I recorded the flageolet backline (on second attempt) and then improvised the melody line over it. Could be worse.
| 3 | atv - Milk And Gingerbread | 2:07 | 2005 | |
When I was jerking off CLiff Burton's "Pulling Teeth" theme, I've noticed that before getting wild in the end it comes to the A-moll and kind of fits to the beginning of Sergey Chegodaev's "Yalynka" piece, who was my bass teacher in music school at that time. So I recorded it as seemed to be funny for me.
| 4 | atv - Pulling Teeth/Yalynka | 3:49 | 2005 | |
Me And My Friends (2000-2003)
Again, Matvey and Pazzive came to visit me once and as a result we recorded this strange track. Viva low-fi!
| 1 | Striped House - Yikhaly Kozzacks | 1:09 | 2003 | |
Once Peter Mamchich asked my to compose a bassline for his song "Ulisses`82" which later got released in "Funf Lieder" album . Actually we prepared and perfomed together 40-minutes long concert program, but we never got to record it..
| 2 | Peter Mamchich & GVALT - Ulisses`82 | 4:35 | 2002 | |
With the concept that anyone can do music we did the cover on Mamchich' song "Money" (along with three other songs) as a birthday present for him.
| 3 | Mamchich Friendz - Mamchich Makes Me Funny | 2:48 | 2000 | |
"S.P.O.K." band (Kiev, 1999)
This is my first band ever! I was 17 when we started to play and I tried bass-guitar first time in my life, otherwise they wouldn't let me play in the band.
After 6 month we got invited to a small festival in Finland. Our singer and percussionist couldn't go, so the guitarist had to play the guitar, flute and to sing. The song presented below was recorded during our live performance at that festival.
| 1 | S.P.O.K. - River Jazz | 2:53 | 1999 | |
