Alex Panopoulos, the guy behind the Zik initiative, is the man in charge. Alex began making music at the age of 13 with gabber hardcore sounds under the artist name Terrorist In 1999,
he began writing chill out and psychedelic music with pals and entered the Zik realm. He started spinning around the earth and met many interesting earthlings that exchanged the
same vibe of creation, which is sound. Along the process, he created projects such as the Matutero project from 2000 to 2004, the Horror Place project from 2004 to 2008, and the
Adrenal Gland project from 2006 to 2010, forming collaborations with various artists such as Jibber Jabber, ZikOre, PolyZik, and KukuRuku. Zik collaborated with many artists around
the globe, such as Alien Mental , Polyphonia , Orestis , Kulu , Stranger , Mind Oscillation , Paul Karma , Kindzadza , Psykovsky , Furious , The Nommos , Audiopathic , Darkshire ,
