After a long time cooperation and several successful projects (Faces and Places, two side live and ect.) and inspired by Jojo Mayer and his projects “Prohibited Beats” and “Nerve”, Sandro Nikoladze, Nika Cereteli , “Ziko” and “Goofy” added “Gobeja” in their band and made a new project “Re_Beat”.
It’s a mixsture of drum and bass in free stile performing manner. The band appeared on an ,,Ozoni Event’’ (20 May 2007) and attracked attention. After that, they had several performances in Georgian clubs. During perfoming bend members understood that something was missing in their music and added to bend MC “Cutkill”. MC had bring in “Re_Beat” something more energetic. With this membership they got covered ,,Ozoni Gigz Festival’’ on 30th of July. (More: OZONI (music magazine) )
The experience of band members and the membership makes more interesting their work. Mostly some of the details are often changed in compositions and that’s why the concerts of band are different from each other.

Technical rider: Drum set : bass drum, snare, two alts, hi hat, 3 stands for cymbals, guitar and bass combo, two lines for keyboards, 3 mic's.
