Poetry for Mental Health published my piece today. “How Music Helps Me Live with Bipolar Disorder.” Writing it took weeks. Not the actual writing, that happened in bursts between studio sessions. The difficult part was deciding how much to share. Whether to use the words “bipolar disorder” publicly. Whether people would understand or reduce everything […]

The track released today. 24th October, exactly as planned. This song took me somewhere different sonically. Heavier guitar work than anything I’ve done before, denser production, more rock-oriented approach. Working with Vitaly remotely pushed the sound in directions I wouldn’t have explored alone. The distance between studios actually clarified what the track needed. The core

Tonight at 18:00, I’m heading to Flanger Studio for a jam session with musician friends, and I’m streaming it live for you. This is completely unstructured musical exploration. No setlist, no predetermined direction, just instruments and players feeding off each other’s energy. Jam sessions are where I often discover new song ideas or unexpected approaches
