  • Bassiani resident Héctor Oaks will release an album, As We Were Saying, on the club's label arm in December. It takes inspiration from his extended techno sets on the Tbilisi club's second floor, Höroom. The LP also draws upon the experience of May 11th this year, when Bassiani was raided by armed police, leading to arrests and eventually a thousands-strong protest rave in front of Georgia's parliament. "From my point of view, this is the voice of a generation that found its freedom in raving," Héctor Oaks says. "To all of you my Georgian brothers and sisters, and anybody who felt touched by this. As we were saying: we dance together." As We Were Saying is Bassiani's seventh release, following Dadub's Rituals Of Resistance 12-inch from September.
