Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To know about music as much as I can and to create music that could mean something more that just rhytm, to tell the stories and show the beauty of everything in this music
ABOUT ME
Currently I am a student of Music Production Technology program at Daytona State College, Daytona Beach, FL. I have been trying to produce my own music and I love writing (want to do both in this world). I also have Computer Engineering degree from Pacific National University in Khabarovsk, Russia.
I'm a quite and respectful guy. Might seem a little bit shy but only until I know you better. Once the connection is done I become really positive and crazy guy, with a lot of stories to tell (although I need some time and leverages to remember them). I like to speak about philosophical or science matters and our past and future. But I most enjoy to hear other people's stories and anecdotal facts of their lives. Also I would like to know as many languages as my mind could comprehend, but I know only two so far :)
PHILOSOPHY
The truth is within you, do not search for it elsewhere. Interested in Buddhism and teachings of the East world

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Composed 2-hours progressive rock album, but never recorded it in real. And also wrote another 4 unrecorded albums :)
The most beautiful place I saw is a mountain in Primorsy region, Russia - near Andreevka village. We climb up there to the top in the fog, it was just amazing. We found ourselves in some Scotland-ish landscape with rocks, hills, fog and ravens. It was amazing!
Teach, Learn, Share
Know how to play guitar and write music. Know technical stuff about making music. Pretty knowledgeable in computers. Can cook. Write poetry (primary in Russian language).
Want to know more languages. To learn horse riding and archery. Want to learn carving wood (for a long time now, somehow I never pursued it) and to paint (I'm a terrible painter). Want to learn how to play a cello and to sing (like, not missing notes all the time - my problem).
