Punk/hardcore bass player based in Berlin, Germany. I'm open to related genres and looking for a new project.

Let Them Let (~2012, rehearsal studio)

I'm a Berlin-based bass player (originally from Russia), currently living in Germany.

I speak Russian and English – no German (yet).

I have past experience with live shows and studio recordings, though it was some time ago.

This page includes a mix of old live recordings (circa 2010) and new 2025 home sessions where I play along to drum tracks or backing grooves.

All recordings are raw, honest, and unedited – just bass and attitude.

I’m into melodic hardcore, skate punk, and gritty, emotionally driven punk rock.
Think Propagandhi, Against Me!, A Wilhelm Scream, Iron Chic, Off With Their Heads.

I read and write tabs, use Guitar Pro, and do basic home recording (DI + plugins).
I’m most comfortable playing with a pick, but actively working on fingerstyle.
Also learning the fundamentals of music theory to broaden my playing and songwriting.

Open to punk-adjacent styles like post-hardcore, garage, and emo – as long as there’s energy and heart.

Let’s make some noise.
