I changed things up this week and played only in-app tracks since there have been some new additions. Free of international copyright restrictions, we packed my rave cave with users from all over the world and we had such an amazing night!
TONIGHT @ 9pm PST, 11pm CST Resident DJ Splorgman will be playing an extended 3 hour set of trance and deep house inside his custom designed rave cave @thewavevr ’s online metaverse!
(And this is just one of 1/3 of the experience currently available for HTC Vive & Oculus Rift)
“Grammy award-winning recording artist and technologist Imogen Heap and TheWaveVR have teamed up to create a first-of-its-kind immersive music performance.
Imogen Heap is a live holographic experience where Imogen performs a series of songs including an unreleased Frou Frou track and an entirely new mix of “Hide and Seek.” Recorded by TheWaveVR, the performance takes place at Imogen’s home studio in London.
To record Imogen’s likeness, TheWaveVR worked with volumetric capture company Depth Kit, which created a virtual version of Imogen’s home where visitors can experience breathtaking visuals as environments which evolve to the sounds of the music.”

Highlights from my first resident DJ set for TheWaveVR
This was a sampler set comprised of my favorite genres of music, giving attendees a taste of what’s to come in future shows.
It also represents my own personal journey into electronic dance music, beginning with pop and house music and rounding out the show with some glitch hop and a psy-trance aftershow.
Future sets will be more on theme (less genres), this one was a bit all over the place but a fun experiment.
TONIGHT: Resident DJ Moike will be playing one of his very popular industrial themed shows in thewavevr @ 9PM PST, 12PM EST. I highly recommend checking it out if you have SteamVR/OculusRift access!
TheWaveVR, a VR EDM festival for the metaverse now has 9+ resident DJs, 4 staff DJs, and a vibrant community of creative art designers and VJs.
Here are some of the newest short (under 4min) highlight reels from recent events:
One of the newest resident DJs Sirkut threw an amazing house music party:
Another newer DJ Moike crafted an amazing industrial music themed rave:
OG Guest/Staff DJ GRIMECRAFT returned for his VR II set feauring his signature sound and visuals all heavily inspired by video games.
Here is an example of one of the looping 24/7 social music experiences that you can try anytime:
Tonight @ 7PM PST, 10PM EST, a member of the community Petroleum Blownapart is throwing a cave party entitled COSMIC CATACLYSM with custom visuals and a mix of tracks hand picked from the (200+) songs built into the application accessible by everyone in the world. Because he is using the pre-licensed in-app tracks this party will be globally accessible. (anyone can do this at any time)
Big one-time events and looping experiences are usually globally accessible. Resident/staff DJ parties are usually US/CA only though I’ve heard there are workarounds.
My first scheduled resident DJ set is coming soon, to be held in the metaverse @TheWaveVR @8:30PM PST till LATE, come check it out if you access to SteamVR or Oculus Rift!
And so it begins, with PROLOGUE. This will be a sampler set giving everyone a taste of each of my favorite genres woven into a sonic and lyrical journey that represents the things I love most about electronic dance music.
If you want to have a peek but don’t have VR, Join the discord, someone on there always posts a twitch stream link for each of the shows.
