DJ Bandit became interested in hip-hop culture (which later had its influence on almost all musical projects in which he took part) around 1992. A couple of years later he tried his hand in graffiti art, DJing and started as an MC in the rap group Чёрный Свет. Towards the end of the 90s he participated in the metalcore group Black Light as an MC and DJ, which transformed into Trains (trip-hop) and later Triophonix (fusion jazz) as a scratch DJ, which released its music on CD.

In the early 2000s, he took part in the rap group Давление Жизни, as part of which (as an MC and DJ) he released two albums on CD. Continuing to play DJ sets in clubs, he joined the Modulshtein project (downtempo, future jazz, 4 albums on vinyl) and the funk-jazz project Estrada Orchestra (in this group he played drums on the first album, which was released on vinyl). Later he played drums in the krautrock band Centre El Muusa (2 albums on vinyl and one 7" vinyl record) and the Dead End Boogie project (two 7" vinyl records).

In 2022, he released a solo album called “Asila” under the Detroit label Funk Night Records in cassette format (instrumental psychedelic hip-hop, trip-hop), after which he recorded a second solo album, “Lightsaver”, which will be released in vinyl format under the same label. 

He plays vinyl records in the styles of hip-hop, jazz, soul, brazil, afro, psych rock, post-punk, downtempo and jungle.
