Hardcore Buddhist is a Netherlands based multi-genre electronic music project that transcends stylistic boundaries, seamlessly blending chill-out moods with danceable progressive rhythms and psychedelic tones. The project officially started in 2016, but my journey with electronic sound production began in 2007.
The debut album "Being Nothing" was released in 2017 on Vertigo Records, followed by the "Chill Pepper" EP on Mystic Sound Records in 2019. That same year, I joined Cosmicleaf Records with the release of my album "Cosmic Mentality", marking the beginning of a long-term collaboration. Since then, Cosmicleaf has become my home label, where I've released the majority of my music. In April 2023, I released my latest album, Succulent 432Hz. You can also find my solo tracks, collaborations, and remixes on Sentimony Records and Microcosmos Records. In April 2025, I launched my own label, Tweak Peak Records, dedicated to psybient, progressive chill-out, and psychedelic downtempo music.
Hardcore Buddhist's sound is a rich, emotionally charged journey through psybient, downtempo, progressive chill out, and psychill styles. Each composition weaves intricate sound design, dynamic energy shifts, and uplifting cosmic vibes, telling a trippy and exciting story infused with sassy, romantic, psychedelic, and oriental influences. Since 2016, I have been performing internationally, bringing my sound to audiences across Norway, Lithuania, Poland, Netherlands, Germany, Latvia, Romania, Czech Republic, Oman, and numerous festivals in Ukraine, my home country.
With multiple albums, EPs, and numerous collaborations with artists like Zero Cult, Lab's Cloud, Side Liner, Kick Bong, Dense, and Zymosis, Hardcore Buddhist is an ever-evolving project fueled by a passion for high-quality sound, guitar playing, and an insatiable desire to experiment.
