"Musically, this mixtape was heavily influenced by the artists I’ve been listening to over the past few months. The entire process was done spontaneously," Hindia added as quoted on Antara.
His team, Sepuluh Dua Empat (1024), has partnered with Jabba Connection to organize a launch concert titled “Bali, '25 on Blank Canvas.”
