The app features a variety of interactive experiences based on different tracks from the EP, including a unique-sounding “festival experience” as well as a beat-matching game. By arranging the vinyl packaging into a trifold “anamorphic diorama,” you unlock access to four track-by-track AR experiences.

YXBoZXh0d2lu is available free to download on iOS and Android devices via the App Store and Google Play respectively. The app was developed by the spatial internet studio KALKUL in collaboration with Weirdcore and Warp Records.
