a-ha sees first VR video released from their Spektrum show in Oslo, Norway (May 3rd): ‘Sycamore Leaves’
A few weeks ago we announced that a-ha’s ‘Afterglow’ – which took place at the Spektrum venue in Oslo, Norway on May 3rd – was about to be made available through Hydro’s official YouTube channel and this in VR. And that has now happened, at least for one song, “Sycamore Leaves”.
The live track is available through Hydro’s official YouTube channel and this in VR. The stereoscopic VR-experience is available for Android users directly through the Youtube app. Before you start the video, click the settings icon on the video and select the highest quality for the best VR experience.
A dedicated app for all platforms is available for free download right here. Let’s now wait and see when the rest of the material will be released.

Why we ask
Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.
