The History of Techno in Georgia: Resistance, Underground Culture and Legendary Clubs

We travel to Georgia, a country marked by historical and social tensions, where techno has evolved to become a symbol of peaceful resistance. We discover how the youth of Tbilisi, stifled by the impositions of the system, found in dark rhythms and BPMs a language of total freedom and a new collective identity.

We explore the roots of pillars of this scene such as Bassiani, an implacable sanctuary located under a soccer stadium, and Khidi, the authentic laboratory of sound experimentation. We understand why the Georgian dance floor flees from commercial fame and has established itself as the great litmus test that grants real credibility to global artists.
