The Latvian band “Zodiac” and their leader Janis Lusens will perform at the fourth edition of the V-ROX International Music Festival in Vladivostok. They are one of the pioneers of global “space music” and are very familiar to all generations.

For the first time ever the people of the Far East region will see the live performance of the legendary collective.

According to the figures, “Melodia” music label has sold millions of copies of “Zodiac” records back in the USSR time. Their debut album “Disco Alliance” was released in 1980 and spanning a catalogue up until 1988 but in 1990 the band stopped any recordings and performances; however in 2015 they have returned back to their true existence.

Today, “Zodiac” is still a young, aspiring and progressive group of talented musicians. Although the band has changed its lineup the leader and producer is still the same: Janis Lusens Snr – the icon of classic electronic music. Other musicians in the band are no older than 35 years and his son Janis Jnr is the guitarist of the band.

“Zodiac” – the group which has not stayed in the past but now continues to create new and even more interesting music.

Janis Lusens Snr has earned great respect as a person and as a musician. Today, “Zodiac” has a great future ahead. They are not following any particular trend but instead create their own unique style. Above all politics and any boundaries, Janis Lusens’ music shows the real Latvia, which we saw in the 80’s – beautiful and unique with kind, talented people.

Performance of “Zodiac” in the Far East will be held for the first time. All compositions will be played live and the festival goers can expect possible surprises with various improvisations including a brand new track ‘Ajro’ from their forthcoming album.
