Initialised in the studio as an open ended project, Zoc came into existence in 2009, when gradually the final cast of the band was established. They decided upon collective improvisation as their proper method of music making and during their laid back jamming sessions both their first album Zoc 1 and their very specific sound were born. It is a cohesive combination of jazz improvisation, psychedelic post rock, cinematic ambient and a number of folk, dub and other ingredients.

Relatively unconcerned by ambitions, Zoc is still an outstanding project, very explicitly showing the band members as the experienced, versatile and talented musicians they are. The bands initiators were Blaž Celarec on drums, percussion and clarinet and Žiga Golob on bass and ukulele. Blaž, also a member of Brina, Fake Orchestra and some other bands, is otherwise a music composer, a producer and a very much wanted musician for all kinds of projects. The same goes for Žiga Golob, the owner of one of the most extensive discographies among the younger Slovene jazz musicians. Andraž Mazi, who plays guitar, pedal steel and dobro, and Adi Jakša on guitar, melodica and banjo, are also veterans of the jazz scene and have collaborated in many noticeable projects.
