A few weeks ago, we had a chance to see @taba.chake play a beautiful, intimate gig with @thenoiseculture at @kicobangalore and ask him a few questions post-performance. From musical inspirations to what drives Taba’s music - watch on to see more!

Welcome to a day in the life of @poke.a.booo

“What started about five years ago has been a pretty inconsistent ride, but here we are. After moving back to Bombay, I found a second home at Blacksheep Tattoo Studio over the last couple of years, where I’ve really gotten to embrace being a tattooer.

I’m still figuring out what my style is. But the more I sketch, tattoo and get inspired, the more I notice little similarities across the work I’ve made so far. It’s wiggly, a little illustrative, old-school with a slightly modern edge. I’m sure I’ll find more words for it eventually; we’ll cross that bridge when we get there.

For now, I’m just enjoying the ride. Hope you do too.” by @openclosemag
