HUMAN DRUM RECORDINGEST. IN THE DETAILS

DRUMS
WITH
FEELING.

I’m Ivan. I record real drums for songs that deserve more than “that’ll do.” I listen, experiment, and obsess over the little things until the part feels like yours.

HELLO, HELLO.

A drummer
who gives a damn.

I’m Ivan Korniienko, a professional session drummer based in Ukraine. I record from my studio for artists everywhere.

Send me your song, your notes, or a voice memo of you making drum noises. I’ll find the groove that supports the music, whether it needs a busy little hi-hat idea or a whole lot of restraint.

Yes, I will care about the snare sound that much.
02 THE NERD STUFFSMALL DECISIONS / BIG FEELING

IT’S NEVER
“JUST DRUMS.”

The groove is a conversation with the song. Here’s how I make sure it’s listening back.

01 / LISTEN

Find the point.

What is the song trying to say? I start with the arrangement and the feeling before touching a drum.

02 / EXPERIMENT

Try the tiny things.

A lighter backbeat. A different cymbal. One ghost note less. The small choices are often the whole point.

03 / DELIVER

Give you room to create.

Thoughtfully recorded, clearly named tracks that make the next step of your production easier.
