I've build a stand alone music system and used 'hostapd' (https://jenssegers.com/43/realtek-rtl8188-based-access-point-on-raspberry-pi). Hostapd creates a wifi hotspot; so your music system is completely stand alone and independent of other wifi networks. I use this primary in my car with iPeng as the remote control. I also use this system when travelling. It has a build in SSD drive which has a copy of the music on my NAS. I use Samba so that I have access to the internal drive (for synchronizing the music files with my NAS at home). This system is not based on piCorePlayer but maybe it is possible to install hostapd on piCorePlayer. In any case, this solution is working fine for me.
