Jakgitel — A Decade Later

Ten years, countless memories, and a journey that has shaped us in the most beautiful ways.

We return to it with softer hearts, grateful for how far we’ve come and for everyone who has walked with us along the way.

Thank you for the love. 🤍

Every band has that one person who quietly keeps everything together. For us, that’s Mark. (@stroke_roll_mark )

As he leaves to continue his journey with Edvox Music School (@edvoxmusicschool ) in Singapore, we’re filled with mixed emotions. It’s hard to imagine the stage without him behind the drums, but we’re equally excited for this new chapter and couldn’t be happier and prouder of you.

Thank you for being the amazing musician and even better human that you are. Until we share the stage again, wishing you all the love & success in the world❤️

THE WAIT IS OVER!

Dear all… remember when we said the response blew us away? We meant it.
60+ entries in just 12 days — every submission was incredibly beautiful, every artist brought something powerful. Our jury had a really hard time choosing… honestly, so did we.

So we broke the rules a little.

Because the love was just too much to keep it to only 3 winners…
we extended it to the TOP 6!

And now… the moment you’ve all been waiting for…

NOKPANTEREC 5TH ANNIVERSARY ORIGINAL SONG COMPETITION — WINNERS ARE HERE!

@tengchimee_
@amikka_aski
@dunnojunn
@sns_.india
@firoz_goera_marak
@saddoboyy

These artists stood out not just for their music, but for their creativity, identity, and the stories they carry from our region. We’re truly proud❤️

✨ And that’s not all…
One among the Top 6 will also receive a Music Video opportunity once the song is completed — something we’re really excited to bring to life!

To every artist who participated — thank you. This wasn’t just a competition, it was a celebration.

📩 Check your emails for more details

With love,

Ahoea — a joyful expression of the Garo people, often chanted after each line of a song, poem, or a tale to celebrate moments of happiness and delight.

This song is a tribute to the farmers & to the simple joys of our village life, Where we breathe freely under the pure air, To the hills that embrace us, And the fertile soil that blesses our harvest. We ask for little, and the land gives us more than enough. Happy Wangala🌾

‘Ahoea’ is the 1st single from the upcoming EP/Album “Abri Mandi - Man from the Hills”, a homage to our roots, culture & our home.
