Hello everyone, Today, we're bringing a difficult, but significant change to SMD Technologies. This company was started out of a classroom by 3 hyped, curious students who had a spark, a drive to create new things. Time has passed and unfortunately, how it sometimes goes, they lost it. They lost interest and no longer wanted to build something from nothing, from a complete scratch. Only one of them had the perseverance to see it through and survive even the failures that occurred along the way. Back then, SMD meant something. It had nothing to do with surface mount devices, it was a short the three students came up with, each letter being the first letter of their names. This no longer applies, so the company has to move on. Goals have changed, visions have transformed and ideas have shifted. A new chapter of the company's journey is here and it's called 'Ongakken'. Our projects have been focused, in a large part, on music. We are producing it also making games based on it. It's an inseparable part of this company's identity. Ongakken stands for 'musical experience' and is based on two Japanese words -- 'ongaku' and 'taiken', meaning 'music' and 'experience', respectively. This clever and unique portmanteau effectively describes our whole brand. The change is coming into effect immediately. Our new website is now https://ongakken.com/, but the old one will still work till it expires. All of the services offered previously remain unchanged. Our games remain as they were as well and Beat Rush will continue to be developed. Our music is a different story. We will issue an update to all streaming services and music stores changing our artist name from the old one to the new one, but this change will probably cause that many streaming services will create a new artist page for us, resetting follower count. There is nothing that can be done about that, it's just the way they were programmed. We hope you will stay with us even after this impactful change. As always, stay safe and stay tuned!
