ALEXANDER MAKAROV

In the last two years I’ve been actively working as a private music tutor, teaching both children and adults of different skill levels either drums or piano. My main focus was not only to teach them the technical aspects of the instrument but also to turn their skill set into something original and creative, for example composing simple songs or drum lines. I also craft a personalised roadmap for every student based on their home setup, the amount of time they can dedicate to practicing and their end goal.

I was hired as a session composer and arranger to compose music for different kind of projects, ranging from Musicals and soundtracks to pop, EDM and rock genres. The songs featured a broad bouquet of instruments, both live recorded by myself as well as midi parts.

Over the past few years I’ve been consistently hired and asked to do studio and live drums session work, for artists and bands varying from Funk, RnB and Soul styles to Hard rock and Metal styles. I had a chance to come up with and record my drum parts in some well renowned studios across London and tour with tribute and original bands across the UK and Europe, including headline slot festivals with the official Guns N’ Roses tribute band.
