Project Zenit was formed in 2012 by Kazakhstan's Timur Turisbekov (formerly releasing on Ohm Resistance as Schecter) and Bulgaria's Ivan Shopov (Balkansky, COOH, Drumkid). The two long time friends divided by many countries in-between decided to collaborate to explore different dimensions of accessible electronic music. In 2013 the team was filled out by adding the graphic designer and music producer Ivo 'Kuker' Christov.
