Slowly but surely, as kids grew older we (the parents) were finally getting some sleep and bit more spare time :). Naturally first impulse I got is to make some music and dig bit deeper on the internet, outside of familiar network.To see what did I miss, what is going on.
To my amusement and joy everything what I was hoping for and expecting 10, 15 years ago, considering world of independent music and media became reality.Indie music was being made, promoted, followed on the scale that could not be ignored or doubted by anyone, anymore.
Transition was complete and I was more then ready for it.
I found out also about development of Blockchain infrastructure. Bitcoin, public ledger, crypto....just like it was the case when Internet arrived, mp3, MySpace , streaming, YouTube, iTunes, Spotify...it was clear that music will have it's place in these new developments too.
World of Off Grid Music, Indie Music, whole networks and communities of people and artists with mutual passion, sentiment, ambition.One huge decentralized, but united family of sounds and people.It sounds good and it is true.Perfect. :)
One such music network and community caught my eye and ear and I quickly joined.

It is difficult to express with words joy I had (have) upon discovering and meeting artists and people involved with ACR.
It had everything I was hoping for will come into being for so long.
Developer and admin of heart of gold and incredible dedication and love for music and people, Juxta John.
Well though off portal enabling artists to meet and support, and also inform and educate each other on most recent developments, and free cross-platform use in order to further strengthen, expand and promote mutual music and networks.With an result of attracting hundreds and hundreds of great people and artists.I heard most of them.:)
I also met dozens and dozens of them.We are all friends now for years.Yes time flies, but it gets filled with good things.
Personally, I was welcomed and felt welcome.Support received surpassed all previous support I got.And I have always selflessly promoted and supported other indie artists too.So, it felt like home.

One of the first blockchain music streaming platforms.Where I also met dozens of incredible artists and people and received awesome support and encouragement.
2017- 2018. for me were years when I constantly had that Mona Lisa smile while watching at the screen of my computer.
It just felt good and right.
Inspired with it all I recorded and released single, guitar shredding instrumental track, titled Off Grid.
Dedicated to seeing some dreams come true.
Off Grid music was not anymore some naive concept thought off by some silly people.Nope..it became what it always was and was meant to be.But now widely accepted.
Serious business. :)
