Balto Sequoia
Ruslan, also known as Balto Sequoia, began playing guitar at the age of eight. He went on to study film scoring and composition at the Berklee College of Music. During his time there his musical directions broadened; from solo acoustic, post rock and electronic to orchestral and twelve-tone based works. Ruslan is primarily driven by texture in his music, hearing sounds as shapes and contours. Visuals and moving pictures are a tremendous inspiration and he is currently pursuing scoring music to film.
