The credited artist behind Hinga builds their creative practice rooted in the diverse, interconnected creative communities that span the Philippines, leaning into the fluid, boundary-blending ethos at the heart of the Music/Mix genre that classifies their work as a form of sonic creation that refuses to fit into the narrow, prescriptive categories that often dictate how most sound is framed for audiences around the world. Music/Mix as a classification exists specifically to hold space for work that draws from multiple sonic traditions, styles, and approaches to creation, work that cannot be condensed into a single, easily marketable genre label, and that is exactly the kind of work that creators across the Philippines have cultivated for generations, long before formal classifications for cross-genre sound existed.
