About Playhead

Playhead is a VR electronic music experience where you conduct a vessel through an electronic music piece, in a futuristic world.

Inspired by the stem-based production of Ableton Live, Playhead allows users to remix existing electronic tracks using cutting-edge sight activated technology. Whilst immersed in the game’s retrofuturist galaxy, synths, percussion, basslines and effects can be manipulated, creating an engaged music experience for the user.

Since launching as one of Samsung Gear’s flagship titles in 2014, Playhead registered over 50,000 downloads despite VR’s then-niche market. As the game is completely rebuilt for v2.0, we will set the standard for engaging, interactive musical experiences on the platform.

Playhead is considered a key reference for the interactive musical experience in VR but, for Inner Scope it was merely a proof of concept for something bigger. 

Artist

Playhead are looking for electronic music producers to help develop v2.0 of the game and be a figurehead for the brand as it goes towards the mass consumer market.

We are not just looking for a marquee name to help push the product. We’re looking for producers that are exciting about pushing boundaries, and being creative pioneers in future technology.
