Vlad Zhukov contributed not merely as a session musician, but as a sound producer, also handling arrangements, which influenced the overall sound of the album. On the recording of the album Dalshe ("Further"), he:
- recorded backing vocals on tracks 4, 6, 9, 10, 11;
- played keyboards on the same tracks;
- handled programming (creating electronic parts, loops, rhythmic patterns);
- did the mixing for tracks 4, 6, 9, 11;
- generally oversaw the sound production — meaning he was responsible for how the album ultimately sounded.
Among the tracks where his contribution is particularly notable, "To Know How to Wait" is often singled out — the release notes explicitly state that it was produced and mixed by Vlad Zhukov. Another example is "Pro pertsa" ("About the Pepper").
Polyusa and Vlad Zhukov have recorded many songs together and continue to collaborate to this day, including on Polyusa's latest album — Nashe nichego ("Our Nothing") (2026).
