OUR ORIGIN STORY
Universal Dreamland opened strictly as a (home) Music Production studio in Albury NSW, by (SF California Native) Ciqala Johnson during the Covid-19 pandemic lockdowns after his promising band abruptly, disbanded. Culturally and physically isolated, yet yearning to collaborate and professionally create with other creatives to make and finish creative projects, a Main Street studio shortly opened. Since then, Universal Dreamland has gone through many iterations and is now operated by a collective group of emerging & established Artists/Creative Entrepreneurs, and industry professionals. (Meet the creators).
There are a few problems that we aim to remedy for both the artists and the consumer within this turbulent industry.
- "Who exactly do you ask and where can you go for help when you need something done creatively?",
- "Who exactly can you trust for good, honest, transparent, reputable advice?"
- "How can I create lasting, fruitful, and healthier relationships?
- “How can i earn money and self manage all of my creative business endeavours all in one central location?
Universal Dreamland provides Creative Industry based Creative Solutions to aspiring/ independent/ emerging/ established artists & creators, students Industry Personnel, as well as Small Businesses and Venues.
Universal Dreamland acts as an intermediary between Artists/Creators, their need to express, create, perform, and earn a sustainable income
