Taba Chake

“Ngo si hariang nyoku gahar kun Hugulo so chingma Ngam nyi malang kade kade do Alle bo ejee ngo geyma” This is the first verse of the song ‘Hugulo’ by folk singer-songwriter Taba Chake from Arunachal Pradesh, sung in his native language, Nyishi. Whether you understand the language or not, it’s his music that moves you. On this episode of Maed in India, Taba talks about the correct way to pronounce his name, how he didn’t get fed in boarding school, why he dropped out of music school, and that house on the hill. He also plays you music from his debut multi-lingual album Bombay Dreams, along with an unreleased and untitled song which will feature in his next album!   Set List: Hugulo (01:05 - 03:57) Walk With Me (17:54 - 19:56) In Waadiyon Mein (36:14 - 39:41) Unreleased - Untitled (54:00 - 55:35)   Support, love and buy Maed Merch at http://shop.maedinindia.in Follow Taba Chake Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/taba.chake/    Come be our friend: Facebook https://www.facebook.com/maedinindia Instagram https://www.instagram.com/maedinindia/ Twitter https://twitter.com/maedinindia   CREDITS: Host: Mae Twitter: https://twitter.com/maebemaebe Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/maemariyam/   Recording Engineer: NoFilterAsh Audio Editor Post: Vijay Doiphode Producer: Jaanam Dewan Video Directed/Edited: Jishnu 'Short Round' Guha Studio: Island City Studios
