Sergei Arzumanov on SoundBetter

The guitarist, producer and sound engineer is ready to feel your music and help you to embody any creative ideas.

As a session guitarist, I have participated in hundreds of recordings by various musicians. If your track requires an electric or acoustic guitar, then I will help to record it, taking into account the musical mood and any of your wishes.

I can record solos or chords, create a powerful guitar background, arrange question-and-answer with vocals, decorate the track with atmospheric soundscape.

I can come up with all the guitar parts myself, or you can send me a reference or send your draft recordings in the form of an audio file or the score of your music.

I will provide a professional level quality track, edited and fully ready for use. The better you explain what you want, the better the result will be.

Please, note:
1. I do not record heavy metal/heavy rock/classical/flamenco.
2. I'm not in the business of finding chords for a vocal line. Please send me a demo track or sheet music with chords and topline ready.

Let's work together!

    One again Sergei has played just what I asked him to for my song. He makes sure to communicate in at way that ensures he is turning out just what is asked for. His playing is beautiful and did the job just perfectly.

    Sergei simply plays some very beautiful guitar. He also goes the extra mile to ensure I am getting the tracks I am asking for. I'm about to open up a third job with Sergei and trust I'll get just what I need.

    Me and Sergei have worked together many times over the course of many years now, I believe I first came to him in 2019, so we're talking about five years of history. Intermittently over that time, I have come to him and not once has he let me down. A lovely player with a lovely sonic palette, a professional, who is capable of contributing and generating ideas of his own or work within the confines you have set for your work. I'm happy to call Sergei a collaborator and friend.

Interview with Sergei Arzumanov

  1. Q: Analog or digital and why?

  2. A: May I be torn apart by tube/analog sound fans, but I work entirely in a digital environment. It is convenient, fast and high quality. In any case, completely analog sound does not exist for a long time, and digital technologies today are great.

  3. Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

  4. A: I always promise to complete the work on time and with high quality, and I also promise a 100% refund if my work is not to your liking.

  5. Q: What do you like most about your job?

  6. A: Thanks to my work, I have made many friends all over the world, which is great. I recorded different music: Arabic, Chinese, Indian
 This experience is very useful for me, because my musical horizons have grown a lot. It's cool!

  7. Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

  8. A: At school, I learned to play the piano for several years, and then picked up the guitar. After that I played in various bands and toured a lot. In the early 90's I got a computer and switched to full-time studio work, learning arranging, mixing and producing. As a session guitarist I have recorded over 1500 songs and arranged several hundred songs.

  9. Q: Can you share one music production tip?

  10. A: "The music is not in the notes, but in the silence between." (Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart).

  11. Q: What type of music do you usually work on?

  12. A: I work with most genres of music, however, there are genres in which I am not strong (hard rock and metal, classical, country). Therefore, before starting work, I would like to listen to a demo and decide if I can handle your task.

  13. Q: What do you bring to a song?

  14. A: I always try to follow the emotional mood of the song. When I don't have to play from notes, I create beautiful phrases and chord progression.

  15. Q: What's your typical work process?

  16. A: I usually start by listening to the song carefully and writing down the chords on paper. After that, I decide which instrument will sound best for a particular part. After recording, I edit tracks, remove random noises, re-record bad-sounding phrases. Sometimes I practice for a while if the guitar part is hard enough to play immediately.
