As a part of djs and promoters gathered around the project Baraka Collective, she organized and acted at various ethnic-world, dub, downbeat events. Already next year Ushtra and Indra started a new radio project called "ChillDren of the Earth" and this were her doors into the world of ambient music.Friend Ratko is meritorious for Indra’s first psy chill gig as he called her to be a part of his Fairytale crew at chill floor on cult Gotcha parties in the good old underground club Attack. In the same club she plays as a part of Feminizer crew, a better half of Tribalizer. One of the main actors of local underground trance scene, late Sheki (dj Kobayagi) 2003. organized the first bigger Croatian trance festival Underwater Overground, where Indra plays at chill floor, as well as at all the following UWOG festivals.

She plays at various events which promote trance and psychill culture in Croatia (Free Spirit Festival, the Ministry of Psychedelic, Underwater Overground, etc.). This summer she played alongside the biggest names in the ambient scene at Aurora festival in Greece.Her sound is a fusion of floating and ambient atmospheres and deep dub bass lines with ethnic elements. As in a real life, she draw the inspiration for her sets from nature, spirituality and traditions of ancient cultures.Behind the name Indra is the symbolism in the form of the god Indra, a king of deva's (gods) in Indian mithology, defender of gods and mankind from the forces of evil. Indra gets his strenght by drinking Soma, the elixir of immortality. He had early aspects of a sun-god, riding in a golden chariot across the heavens, but he is more often known as the god of thunder and fertility since he brought the water to earth, respected as a creater god having set order to the cosmos.
