Together, let's make Blockchain history!

BLOCK MOUNTAIN is a collaborative music project between DJ Lethal Skillz and Scuzzy Ruckus that aims to engage, strengthen, and invigorate Steemit artists, musicians, and the community.

The purpose is to contribute to the enrichment of our community so that integrity and sincerity are acknowledged and awarded. In addition, Block Mountain strives to not only enlighten Steemit members, but also to make awareness of Steemit, its initiatives, affiliates, and other blockchain platforms to potentially productive members.

What is Block Mountain?

In the geological sense, a block mountain is a type of rejuvenated mountain formed by an enormous underground pressure that forces a whole rock mass to break away from another. As a result, a 'block mountain' is uplifted from the surrounding land.

We simplified this concept of block mountains and poetically interpreted it into three key principles and philosophies relevant to us. The Block Mountain music project strives to achieve the following:

1. To encourage the qualitative progression of our community by uplifting and supporting those who are like-minded.
2. To encourage collaborative projects because "if everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself" (Henry Ford).
3. To bring awareness and educate our community, as well as to those outside of the blockchain.

Block Mountain is about our fundamental principles and a state of mind that we are pursuing to advocate: self-growth and community solidarity.

We are Block Mountain. Let's break away from the mold and rise together!

The Block Mountain Album

The primary initiative is to produce and release the first of the Block Mountain album series featuring the Steemit community.

Qualified musical talents will be selected to join the project. Based on their musical specialty, each participant will be assembled into groups in which the collective will collaborate to produce a new track. This process is repeated until the ideal number of tracks are completed.
