The Rubens VR Music Experience

 The Rubens are premiering an immersive VR experience demonstrating the most progressive form of music video with unreleased track ‘Casper’ from their forthcoming album LO LA RU out 29 June. With the help of a speciality headset, participants enter a virtual playground they can see, hear and dance along with The Rubens. Incentivised to interact with various elements of the scene, users experience 3D visuals and animations that are colourful, vivid, fun and entertainingly out of this world. Each user’s experience is different; and once you leave the VR world with The Rubens, an individual recording of their experience can be shared through social media – showing off their very own personalised music clip.
