Hi, I’m Sergei — a music producer and multi-instrumentalist
with a signature sound that blends modern groove with warm retro nostalgia.
I’ve been in music for over 20 years and have worked as a producer for more than a decade. My specialties include:
Soul, R&B, Funk, Indie Pop, Indie Rock, Blues, Synth Pop, Disco, and French House.
I grew up on The Beatles — their approach to harmony and melody has shaped my musical taste forever.
My sound is also influenced by Jamiroquai, Parcels, Jungle, Bruno Mars, Daft Punk, Brand New Heavies,
and the classics of the ’70s and ’80s.
I’m drawn to music that feels both nostalgic and fresh:
warm analog tone, live instruments, catchy melodic lines, and a tight groove.
I’ve trained with top industry professionals, collaborated with leading musicians and studios in St. Petersburg,
and continue to refine my sound by combining detailed production with expressive live performance.
Let’s create something soulful and unforgettable.
Привет! Я Сергей — музыкальный продюсер и мультиинструменталист c фирменным звучанием, где современный грув встречается с тёплой ретро-эстетикой.
Более 20 лет я в музыке и свыше 10 лет работаю как продюсер. Специализируюсь на Soul, R&B, Funk, Indie Pop, Indie Rock, Disco, Synth Pop и смежных жанрах.
Вырос на The Beatles — их подход к гармонии всегда был основой моего вкуса. На саунд также повлияли Jamiroquai, Parcels, Jungle, Bruno Mars, Daft Punk и классика 70–80-х.
Мне близок тёплый аналоговый тон, живые инструменты, честная игра и плотный грув, который чувствуется физически. Я работал с ведущими музыкантами и студиями Петербурга и постоянно совершенствую продакшн и подход.
Давайте создадим что-то по-настоящему живое.
I create arrangements and productions with the feel of real, live groove — like on vintage records, but with a modern commercial sound.
My approach is built on real instruments and human performance.
I use minimal samples and MIDI, choosing instead a real Rhodes, live bass guitar, analog synths, percussion, all recorded through high-quality preamps.
My studio is located in a wooden countryside house, and that space plays a huge role in how acoustic instruments — drums, acoustic guitar, percussion — sound. Wood gives a soft, warm response, and the room’s irregular shape helps avoid unwanted reflections and standing waves.
The space is acoustically treated for recording vocals and instruments directly in the studio, while the house’s hallway can be used as a natural “echo chamber” for a more spacious, atmospheric sound. This creates a wide palette of possibilities — from tight, controlled drums to lively, expansive tones filled with the character of a wooden room.
My setup is built around a collection of vintage keyboards, analog synthesizers, guitars, basses, and drums — instruments that offer a rich, natural palette of sounds. These are the colors that immediately fall into place in an arrangement and create the feel of real, living music.
There’s a special kind of magic in the way a true Rhodes vibrates under your fingers, or how a single knob turn can completely change the character of an analog synth. These instruments add depth, dynamics, and that unmistakable “human” quality that digital tools simply can’t replicate. This setup makes it possible to craft tracks with their own signature — recognizable, warm, and genuinely inspiring.
The studio’s microphone collection is curated to capture the true character of every instrument and vocal performance — from the soft low end of a kick drum to the airy highs of acoustic guitar and the subtle nuances of the human voice. The setup includes both modern high-end microphones and vintage models that add depth, richness, and that unmistakable tonal warmth to the recording.
The studio uses a flexible, well-designed preamp system: tube channels add warm musical saturation and soft harmonics, while high-quality Neve 1073-style clones deliver that signature density, unmistakable “British” character, and expressive midrange that makes instruments sound confident and professional.
Complementing the setup are eight ultra-clean UAD preamp channels — perfect for situations where maximum transparency, detail, and zero coloration are required. All of these options can be freely combined — tube, solid-state, Neve-style, and ultra-clean — to shape the exact character needed for a particular voice or instrument. And together with a collection of premium UAD plug-ins, this system forms a complete recording and processing chain suitable for top-level production.

I work with artists on singles, EPs, and full releases — from production and arrangement to recording live instruments, mixing, and mastering. I can create a demo, a full arrangement, or a radio-ready track for you. I work across different genres and always tailor the sound to your style, references, and goals.
I also offer focused services: recording individual instruments, writing melodies for your lyrics, developing your demo, as well as mixing and mastering. The priority is to give your music a high-quality, modern, and emotional presentation that fully brings the track’s idea to life.
My approach is built on real instruments and human performance. I use minimal samples and MIDI, choosing instead a real Rhodes, live bass guitar, analog synths, and percussion — all recorded through high-quality preamps.
The work on a track begins with creating an 8-bar demo of the chorus — a short fragment that defines the harmony, rhythm, mood, and the potential final sound of the song. Once this fragment and the overall structure of the composition (intro, verses, choruses, bridge) are approved, I move on to the full arrangement: building out the sections, shaping the rhythmic foundation, adding harmonic instruments, bass, synths, guitars, and additional layers.
At this stage, we also discuss whether we need session musicians — drummers, guitarists, horn players, or vocalists — and whether certain parts should be recorded in other studios if that’s necessary to achieve the desired quality or a specific tone.
After the final arrangement is approved, I track all the instruments, refine the parts, and prepare the entire session for mixing and mastering.
This player features tracks created over the past ten years — from my early productions to recent releases. These are examples of my arrangements, production, live instrument recording, and full tracks made together with artists. I always aim for each piece to sound modern and musical, while preserving a warm, human character.
Just hit “play” — and you’ll hear what your music can sound like.
Srgy is my new favorite producer! It was such a pleasure working with him. He is a true talent and professional. I would give 1000000 stars if I could. Well done!
I don't have words for how good Sergey is. He produced the track from scratch. Was super great with incorporating feedback, very receptive to ideas and, above all, great work ethic!
Always a great experience working with Sergey! Recommend 110%. Awesome as usual!! Zero complaints. Always on point!
WOW! This is BY FAR my favorite of what we've done! So F***** good!!! There was nothing to add on my end, no revisions, simply perfect!!! Incredible work!!!!
AWESOME MUSICIAN. ABSOLUTELY LOVE HIS BASSLINES.
Very happy! He's been helping me find the exact guitar sound I want for a song that I've been struggling with for a while now. He's got a great musical ear and is really good at mimicking exact FX/styles when you send him reference tracks and describe what you have in mind. It's been a very quick service with new guitar takes coming through within a couple of hours of me requesting them, with lots of alternative takes as extra options too. I'll work with him again for sure 🙂
Sergey is an excellent producer! He is able to create unique chords and sounds to elevate your songwriting. All you really need is the lyrics and he will create a world of sound to match! We created an 80s themed dance track.
If you want to discuss a track idea, get full production, or hear how your song could sound with live instruments — I’m always available.
You can simply write a message, ask a question, or send a demo — I listen carefully to every project and help define the best direction for your track.
f you already have a sketch or draft, you can upload your demo right away.
