Hindia, the moniker used by Feast's vocalist Baskara Putra, has shaken local indie fans' curiosity with his poetic singles since the end of 2018.
Hindia sang "Secukupnya" (Enough) and "Jam Makan Siang" (Lunch Hour) to an audience that knew all the song lyrics.

Baskara started making his name in the independent music scene with his band Feast which he formed in 2012.
He started to perform under the moniker Hindia after releasing "No One Will Find Me" in a compilation album titled Bertamu (Playing Guest).
In Christmas 2018, he released an EP called Tidak Ada Salju di Sini (No Snow Here) which he produced in collaboration with Petra Sihombing, Krautmilk, Enrico Octaviano and Rubina. Singles "Evaluasi" (Evaluation) and "Secukupnya" were then released on March 22 and May 3, respectively.
In June this year he released "Tinggalkan di Sana" (Leave It There) and "Jam Makan Siang". (kes)
