Multi-talented music artist Jevon doesn’t just enlist audio and visual aesthetics for his debut album drop “Fell In Love In Brasil’, he also enlists a new dimension: the spatial web.
For each track on “Fell In Love In Brasil’, released February 5th, Jevon transports his audience into the world of the music itself. He brings the narrative, lyrics, and the very feeling of his music into the homes of his fans with augmented reality.
The AR experience was a collaboration between Platoon Music, 1983 Creative, Pretty Big Monster, and Geenee, built on QuickLooks and WebXR technology and delivered through the Web.

WebAR: A Powerful Marketing Tool for the Music Industry
Artists have always been the first to push the boundaries of new mediums, taking the tools and boldly experimenting with them as means of communication, storytelling, art and culture.
It brings culturally significant content into the world, acting as a powerful promotional tool in an extremely competitive digital era.
Our content has demonstrated that WebAR branded content clocks in at over two minutes average engagement per session, versus 20 seconds for video ads.
When there are 40,000 songs being released on Spotify each day, this is valuable engagement time within a full length album.
Access on desktop, mobile, or tablet.
Users are hyper engaged in interactive augmented reality media that they can make their own. They can bring it into the context of their lives and even take photos where they appear in the scene themselves.
This promotes grassroots sharing, user generated content, and personalized experiences, not just for music artists, but for any exciting brand experience.
Using WebAR, artists can create impactful visuals, while augmenting the potential for brand partnerships. Boundary breaking augmented reality collaborations are easier than ever.
