He was respected and was friends with promoters and owners of competitive projects. People came to him for professional advice, as a person with many years of experience and strong principles.
Sergei Tkachenko was one of the co-founders of the Soho Rooms nightclub, which is still considered one of the most successful entertainment projects. Many knew the man not only as the owner of the establishment, but also as a DJ. In the last few years, he has organized his own events, where he performed under the pseudonym Sergei Jeff. None of the businessman’s acquaintances could have imagined that successful man, who made plans for the future, will end his life like this.
A man fell out of an apartment window on the 16th floor. Rescue services rushed to Shmitovsky Proezd, where the tragedy occurred. The DJ’s death did not occur immediately; for some time he still showed signs of life and tried to fight. However, he quickly died from his injuries. Passers-by saw Sergei standing on the parapet, someone even asked him to come to his senses and step back, but the misfortune could not be avoided. Many of Tkachenko’s friends are sure that he did not intend to deliberately throw himself from the window of a high-rise building. Sergei's girlfriend believes that he had no reason to do so, because he for a long time I couldn't find my soul mate. When the man finally found a life partner, it seemed to everyone that there was simply no reason for suicide.
“He was looking for love so much. I was alone for a long time, and then I found her and went out the window. This is not about him at all, this is not his style. For him to stand on the parapet himself is nonsense. He just started to live, opened new project. I helped him make a presentation for investors,” the friend of the deceased told StarHit.
By the way, Sergei Tkachenko stopped being involved in the affairs of the famous nightclub four years ago. After that, he spent more time at the DJ console and made plans for the future. Literally just before the New Year, the man managed to open his own entertainment project “Mir” on Tsvetnoy Boulevard in the very center of Moscow. An acquaintance of the businessman also believes that after he met his lover, he began to feel much better. The girl put forward the opinion that a disagreement might have arisen between them, which led to a sharp quarrel. However, the friend is still not sure that this can pass for the truth.
It must be said that recently joint photographs with his chosen one have appeared on Tkachenko’s page on social networks quite often. Just three weeks ago, the chosen ones vacationed at the popular Russian resort of Rosa Khutor. They shared bright pictures with subscribers and did not hide their feelings. Followers left enthusiastic comments under the pictures.
Maria Radul, the girlfriend of the deceased Tkachenko, did not ignore the incident on her Instagram page. She did not post any photos together, but only presented subscribers with one single entry, which could not but affect their reaction. They began to express their condolences and try to find out the details of the tragedy.
“Mashenka, hold on! My condolences, if you need any help, please hang in there,” “I was speechless when I found out. I still can't believe it. Condolences, Mash. If you need any help, call”, “Time heals, but this is the time... You need to hold on, do not hesitate to ask for moral help from friends, family and loved ones, you will really need it now,” Maria’s friends left comments.
Among Radul’s acquaintances there were those who advised her to limit access to the page on the Internet, since among users there was a version that it was Tkachenko’s girlfriend who brought him to nervous breakdown and forced her to commit suicide. Some sources report that a conflict arose between the chosen ones the day before, which they were unable to resolve, and the quarrel continued the next morning. Many Internet users refuse to believe in this version, because even if it were so, the man, according to friends, would never have thrown himself from a 40-meter height.
Popular singer and dancer Sasha Project was one of the first to react to what happened and hastened to inform her audience about it on the Internet. “I knew him from the age of 16, a man with a huge soul! Never refused anything! He was very funny and serious at the same time! Despite everything! We will all miss you! May you rest in peace,” the artist wrote on Instagram.
Friends and relatives of Sergei Tkachenko still cannot come to terms with what happened. Many are tormented by the fact that they still do not know the true reasons for the death of their friend and colleague. Most Internet users have already posted farewell texts on their microblogs. Everyone is puzzled by the unexpectedness of the tragedy. Some people write that Tkachenko was very lucky when he met new love. After all, she surrounded him with care and warmth, which, according to his friends, he really lacked lately.
The Moscow Investigative Committee continues to interrogate random witnesses to the incident. The pre-investigation check will be carried out over the next few days. It is not yet known where the body of the 41-year-old man was taken.
On Sunday afternoon, January 29, the famous Russian DJ and one of the founders of the Moscow nightclub Soho Rooms Sergei Jeff Tkachenko died in Moscow as a result of a fall from a cornice located at the level of the 20th floor
The Investigative Committee has begun an investigation into the death of Sergei Tkachenko, who fell from a window on the 20th floor of a residential building in the center of Moscow. The deceased was a famous Russian DJ and former co-owner and creator of the Moscow nightclub Soho Rooms.
It was established that on the afternoon of January 29, the body of a 41-year-old man with injuries characteristic of a fall from a great height was found on the canopy of one of the residential buildings on Shmitovsky Proezd, representatives of the Investigative Committee report.
DJ Alex Kafer spoke of Sergei Tkachenko as bright and purposeful person who could not commit suicide.
We met and worked together so much - I can’t wrap my head around how this could happen. He could be thoughtful in terms of work, he thought a lot, he approached all issues on a grand scale,” recalls Alexey. “Nothing was unimportant to him.” And fall out of the window... Honestly, I don’t believe that such a person could do this consciously on his own, because he was so purposeful. I turned to him for advice as a promoter, an artist, he is such a teacher, you could always ask him something or clarify something. Today I will definitely go to our mutual friends and find out what the mood has been there lately. What kind of quarrels can there be with your wife? They have such an idyll.
Alexey met Sergei three years ago, then they decided to create a remix of Sergei’s most memorable song - “Dreams”.
He wrote it a long time ago, and it sank into the souls of many people. Sergei was a bright and bright person who constantly gave people light and positivity. And he called the song “Dreams” his brainchild: in it he spoke and sang how to climb up, to the sun, to his dreams.

This morning, all representatives of the Moscow club scene received shocking news: the owner of the Soho Rooms club, Sergei Tkachenko, better known under the pseudonym S. Jeff, died. A man fell from the 17th floor. According to witnesses, Tkachenko had a fight with a woman with whom he lived in the same apartment and stormed downstairs. Terrible death ex-member of the group “Tete-a-tete” did not leave many celebrities indifferent - people from the first Moscow “star” companies.
Singer Anastasia Zadorozhnaya, who became popular thanks to the acclaimed TV series “Club,” told Life how Tkachenko became the founder of the capital’s club life.
“We are all in shock and don’t understand how this could happen,” Anastasia shared with Life. - I’ve known Seryozha for a very long time, since the time of the series. We spent time together on the set, one might say, we didn’t leave the club. Then it was still Infinity, and then Soho Rooms appeared. He was the founder of this whole party, a very respected man. We spent a lot of time with him, all those days on set, we lived like big family, I, Seryozha, Alexander Tolmatsky. Unfortunately, we haven’t communicated much lately, mostly just congratulating each other on the holidays. Honestly, what happened was a shock to me, Sergei was never seen in any controversial things, he was always calm and friendly.

Russian producer and father of rapper Decl Alexander Tolmatsky, in turn, told Life that in certain period throughout his life, Tkachenko abused alcohol, but before his death he decided to lead healthy image life.
I haven’t seen him for a long time, but he was always normal and reserved. Many people knew him, everyone treated him with respect. I recently heard about this tragedy on the radio and am now very depressed. Lately he has had new girl, they say that this happened because of a quarrel with her. But this is all strange, because he hasn't been drinking lately. Once he had a period, he drank, but then he quit and opened a business. There is no reason to jump out of a window.
In a conversation with Life, Andrei Grigoriev-Appolonov, a member of the Ivanushki International group, recalled that he knew Tkachenko even before he became the founder of many Moscow clubs. As it turned out, the artist remembers Sergei as part of the group “Tete-a-tete” together with Irakli Pirtskhalava. By the way, in 1997 the team performed at the “Christmas Meetings of Alla Pugacheva.”
I have known Seryozha for almost 20 years, since the days of the Tet-a-tete group. The incident that happened, of course, is simply outrageous. He was very reserved, intelligent and kind person, he couldn’t do this on his own. I think this is still an accident.

Singer Yulianna Karaulova spoke about her club life and meeting Tkachenko. The artist, like her colleagues, said that Sergei had recently led a healthy lifestyle.
In fact, the whole party revolved around him, but he himself did not participate in it. He was present at the club, but never drank. I have known Sergei for a long time, so I am also in shock. A very strange situation, because everyone who knows him would never have thought that this could happen.
