Roman Gorielov - acoustic guitarist, composer & producer: https://linktr.ee/romangorielov

Hello! My name is Roman Gorielov. I am a musician from Ukraine. I fell in love with music when I was a child when I heard the album "Revolver" by The Beatles. The melody was magical and so in 1998 I started learning to play the acoustic guitar. 

In 2004 I graduated from a classical guitar music school and together with my classmates founded a band called Teatr Violy. We performed in local clubs, recorded at studios, and also were on radio and television. 

Since 2008 I have been taking part in the recording of Sunchild and Karfagen albums by my friend Antony Kalugin. Here I performed acoustic, electric and nylon guitars and sometimes backing vocals. During this period we participated at several prog-rock festivals in Europe. France in 2009, Holland in 2010, Belgium in 2013, France again in 2014 and 2017... The experience was amazing and rewarding. 

Since 2017 I started doing solo work: I compose, perform and record music myself in my studio using only live acoustic guitars. I can describe my music as melodic and emotional instrumental compositions with a gentle, soulful and lyrical mood. I am glad if you are interested in my music and I wish you all the best! 

P.S.: Oh, by the way, I also do the cover design and photos for all my tracks, so my work is a real self-portrait:)

Art should uplift, ​not favor the lowest tastes

I do not use AI on any of my work, just blood sweat and tears, and a lot of emotion/feelings. The reason I have so much music on SC is that I love making music and it is my life. Also I love to share my work with you all, please enjoy.
Have recently discovered some old tracks which I did back in 2009 but have never been previously released or worked on further. Decided to let them see the light of day, unedited and unpolished. Hope you enjoy them and can see where my humble beginnings started.
Also new for Autumn 2025, a collection of classical piano pieces which I composed back in 2010, in memory of my late father who inspired me to play the keyboard in the first place. Under the title of Magician In Private, hope you will allow my indulgence into a special world of just simple piano, no frills.
Please checkout my vast collection of playlists. All my best music is on there in one place. Is free to listen to or sleep with.

New year, new start. Back on the search for good music and inspiration. Will be featuring a lot of my older work remastered this year, seems like a long time since I began my composing journey back in 2000.
Happy New Year to all my followers, May 2025 be filled with musical magic. 
Thank you for all your kind comments and support throughout 2024 I do appreciate it. Stay safe and love each other.
All my remastered best tunes from 2015 to 2023 are now available to buy on Bandcamp.
Am back to making regular music now but sorry no Christmas songs this year. This time of year is very hard for me as it is when my father became very ill and died in the new year 2010. I still miss him very much but hope he would be proud of my musical journey, he is my number one inspiration.
Just a quick personal note on AI and music. I think it is not a good thing for the creative side of music and a lot of it comes without feelings or soul. Creativity is a gift, and should be greatly valued, cherished and nurtured. Music is what makes us human and can never be replaced by a computer.
Finished remastering up to and including 2023 now. Has been a mammoth task but well worth the effort. Next year I shall be working on a remastered series of my pre KORG days 2000 to 2008, in 8 volumes, as well as celebrating in style my 10 years of KRONOS magic, can't wait for 2025.
Have now amassed over 1000 tracks on SC (that's over 8000 minutes of music) and it has been a blast sharing them with you all. Next year 2025, marks the 10th anniversary of the start of my KORG journey.
Am currently putting together a remastered Anthology collection of all my best tracks from 2015 onwards. 2015 consists of a 3 volume set (Now available on Bandcamp). 2016 consists of a 4 volume set. (Also available on Bandcamp). 2017 consists of a 4 volume set. (Available on Bandcamp) 2018 consists of a 4 volume set. (Also available on Bandcamp). 2019 consists of a 4 volume set.

Have recently been rediscovering some of my older music pre KORG days and remastering for uploading to my cloud. Hope you like. Seems such a long time ago now.
I have been lucky to have music in my life, and now the time to explore how it can affect other people. I have discovered many new talented artists on SC and am happy to encourage and support their work; from small beginnings come great things. Please be inspired to be your best, inspire others too, encourage those who lack the inner courage to move forward, and together we can make music make a difference in all our lives.
Am spending a lot more time on my music now since retiring from work in July 2020. Always learning new techniques and honing my craft. Am comfortable now with all chord sequences throughout the scales and loving improvising with the help of my mighty KORG still. Am still trying to give my full support and encouragement to all SC users and some latest (you know who you are), are developing nicely. Be good to one another, be gracious to others, leave your ego out of your life and above all else remember there is always someone worse off than yourself. 
Please be kind to each other, to be happy with our lot without jealousy or greed; to give without asking the cost; to love as if there is no tomorrow; to share and inspire others who may be less fortunate than us; most of all to enjoy life for the joy of living, for we know not what the morning brings - stay safe my friends, be strong and always stay positive; remember life changes - DON'T let it change you!!  
Music is my life - has helped me through many dark places, is a big part of who I am. I put my heart and soul into every single piece of music I produce. I have found many wonderful friends on SC and many exciting talented people.  Been writing and producing music now for 40 years plus. Specialised in electronic based orchestral compositions. I have created my own genre which I call 'electrorchestration'.
Favourite artists/bands include Gary Numan, Little Boots, Jools Holland, Eno, Edgar Froese (1944-2015), Jordan Rudess, Kebu, Madis, Keith Emerson (1944-2016), Rick Wakeman, Richard Wright (1943-2008), Pink Floyd, Tangerine Dream, Vangelis, Jean Michel Jarre, M83, Public Service Broadcasting, Dream Theater, ELP, Yes and Mystery to name but a few.

MOON AND ARIES 
(Jordana and Tom: we are real human beings = "no AI" in our songs - all is handmade: composition & production by Tom, lyrics and vocals by Jordana. Plus our great team 2026: guitar by Peter, saxophone by Hanna, Cello by Zara, Violin by Mara, mixing by Chris, mastering by Francois).

 “Moon and Aries” is a studio-driven, global music project with our songs / albums as our main language. 
We are creating somatic soul music through cinematic expression. Our work is rooted in emotional presence and embodied listening - music that is felt in the body as much as it is heard. 

Behind the scenes: 
Formed in 2021 by Jordana Moon (Canada) and Tom Aries (Germany), Moon and Aries emerged from a long-distance creative collaboration grounded in trust, intuition, and shared inner awareness. Their music unfolds like scenes - reflective, spacious, and emotionally attuned - moving beyond genre into lived experience. Guided by a philosophy of melody meets meaning, Moon and Aries create music that supports grounding, connection, and inner regulation.
Moon and Aries create music not as background, but as somatic experience - a space to slow down, feel safely, and reconnect with oneself. Their inspiration sprouts from a variety of genres and artists like k.d. lang, Shivaree, Lisa Stansfield, Portishead, Massive Attack, Depeche Mode, Röyksopp, ABBA,  Sade, Ms. Lauryn Hill, ELIZA and many more.  
MOON AND ARIES - MELODY MEETS MEANING: 
Somatic Soul - Cinematic Expression.
