Hi, I’m Ivan. I record acoustic drums that you and I can both be proud of. For any project, in any style.
Released tracks featuring my drumming. Pick a genre and listen to how the drums sit in the full arrangement.

Ivan played drums on my latest track and absolutely nailed it. He recorded the tops, just hats and snare, and it was my first time trying this kind of approach. The feel, the tone, the sound – everything just sat in the pocket perfectly, and he got it right on the first take. Super easy to communicate with and clearly knows what he’s doing. This is a high recommendation from me. I’m sure I’ll be back.
From the first sound demos to the final files: here’s how we work on your track together.
Available for new projects now
I built a precise pricing calculator that finds the best-fit price for your specific request, so you’re not paying for service packages you don’t actually need. If your project needs something more specific —
Send me a messageA —We start with your references, your vision and the technical details of the track.Before moving to the full recording, I test different ideas and sound options with short demos, so we establish the direction together rather than guessing at the final result.
A —That’s completely fine.You can send me the song and any references you have, and I can bring my own ideas and professional perspective to the arrangement. We’ll compare options and build the part together.
A —No. The early sound-demo stage is for experimenting and choosing the direction, so revisions are unlimited there.Your three included rounds start once we move to the full-track drum part.
A —I keep completed projects available for two weeks after delivery, so small post-production corrections can still be handled.If the song changes so much that the drums need to be recorded again from scratch, I can offer a 50% discount on the new recording.
A —You’ll receive clean, clearly labelled raw multitrack stems.Depending on your order, I can also deliver mixed multitracks, a stereo WAV drum mix and individual drum one-shots. If your project needs a specific export format, just tell me.
A —Yes.I work across very different styles and adapt the kit, tuning, cymbals, room sound and playing approach around the song rather than using one drum sound for everything.
A library of real drum grooves and fills is in the works. The kind you can pull apart, make weird, and make yours.
Super dead, tight or glitchy drums, with raw stems!!!Have something else in mind? Tell me what you’re making. I’ll read the whole message, even the long one.
