Kapanlagi.com - Shocking news comes from the music scene in the homeland. The performance of the music group Hindia, Lomba Sihir, and .feast at the Ruang Bermusik 2025 festival in Tasikmalaya has officially been canceled. This cancellation occurred after strong opposition emerged from several local Islamic community organizations. They accused Hindia's performance, in particular, of containing symbols and narratives considered satanic or worship of the devil, as well as being contrary to Islamic sharia values.
This controversial accusation arose due to the use of stage props and song lyrics that were deemed problematic. Although the promoter has attempted mediation, the opposition continued, ultimately leading to this difficult decision.
The origins of this issue surfaced after the promoter announced the list of performers for the Ruang Bermusik 2025 festival. The names Hindia, Lomba Sihir, and .feast, which are the main attractions, immediately came under scrutiny. Several Islamic organizations in Tasikmalaya openly expressed their rejection. They are accusing the presence of 'satanic' elements in Hindia's performance, especially related to visuals and lyrics.
Quoted from the X account @IndoPopBase on Monday (14/7), they were rejected to perform at the 2025 Music Space Festival in Tasikmalaya - West Java. The festival is known to be held on July 19-20, 2025, at Lanud Wiriadinata, Tasikmalaya City.
"Several groups in Tasikmalaya rejected .Feast, Hindia, and Lomba Sihir at the 2025 Music Space because they are considered to contain elements of the devil," the account wrote.
The festival promoters did not remain silent in the face of this rejection. Various mediation efforts have been made to find common ground and ensure the event can proceed smoothly.
However, the rejection from local organizations remains strong and cannot be contained. This forced the promoters to make difficult decisions to maintain the event's conduciveness.
This cancellation certainly has significant repercussions, especially commercially for the organizers and sponsors of the festival. Hindia is known to be one of the main attractions expected to draw a large audience.
This case also reignited public debate regarding freedom of expression in art and the limits of censorship. Many parties are questioning how far society can intervene in artistic works.
The local police confirmed the existence of reports and rejections from several community organizations regarding the musician's performance. They stated that they have attempted to mediate both parties to maintain public order.
The police emphasized the importance of maintaining conducive conditions and security in the Tasikmalaya area. They support any decisions made for the smoothness and tranquility of the event.
On the other hand, Baskara Putra, the vocalist of Hindia, is known as a public figure who vocally expresses social and humanitarian issues. He often shows his support for Palestine on various occasions.
This stance demonstrates that he not only creates through music but also has a high concern for global issues. This becomes part of Baskara Putra's public image.
This cancellation incident is not the first for Hindia. Previously, Hindia also canceled its performance at a music festival in Banda Aceh.
The cancellation in Aceh was also due to the lack of a public gathering permit, which at that time was also linked to similar 'satanic' accusations. This incident indicates a recurring pattern of rejection.
The cases of Hindia, Lomba Sihir, and .feast reflect the challenges for freedom of expression in Indonesia. The debate between religious values and art continues to be in the spotlight.
It is hoped that there will be a constructive dialogue to find a middle ground. This is important so that artists can continue to create without having to worry about disproportionate restrictions.
