The Brag Media – Wilsonn

Australian artist WILSONN to debut an interactive music video AR filter for Instagram – set to auction as an NFT

Billboard charting and award-winning Soul Modern/Universal Music Australian artist, WILSONN is set to make history, bringing us the very first Australian interactive music video using an AR Filter for Instagram stories.

Not familiar with an alternate reality (AR) filter on social media? Essentially it allows you to superimpose computer-generated video in your instagram stories. So yes, things are about to get a whole lot more interactive around here.

To bring this cutting-edge technology into existence, WILSONN, who is also the CEO of Playlist Pump PR Agency, worked with digital creative, AR Filter designer, Laurent Marcus.

WILSONN said “I am so grateful to be able to work with an amazing digital creative Laurent Marcus who I was introduced to by a good friend of mine. We wanted to think outside the box and do something that hasn’t really been done before in this country. Laurent had the idea and concept and I had the song and vision for it, and we made it work!”

Universal Music Publishing Group – Wilsonn (Standing Floors)

Wilsonn with the release of ‘Standing Floors’. The Sydney artist has been making waves with his charming and buttery vocals, drawing influence from the likes of Frank Ocean, Miguel, Daniel Caesar and H.E.R, making him a quintessential match for Soul Modern. Adding their RnB textures and groovy production to the vibrant new single, is Grammy nominated duo Christian Rich, who have produced and co-written records for the likes of Childish Gambino, Drake, Earl Sweatshirt, Lizzo and Kanye.

The single about persistence and never giving up, Wilsonn elaborates: “’Standing Floors’ was written for the Warriors of this world. The outcasts, the dreamers, the ones who take no for an answer, whether it be in struggles in personal life or professional life, The ones that are never afraid of failing to grow!  This song is for them, the ones who never give up!!”

Wilsonn’s infectious vocals began earning praise back in 2017 when he released his mixtape titled ‘Idiocentric’, which led the artist to be recognized by a number of major online outlets including The Music Ninja, EDM Sauce, and This Song Slaps. Turning heads within the Australian RnB scene, he’s gone on to further embed himself as an eclectic singer, songwriter, and producer, releasing his debut single ‘Even If I Know’ in 2018, which scored blog support from Earmilk, EDM Sauce, and Stoney Roads. Outside of his own singles, he’s continued to write records for various artists including Mau5trap artist Attlas for ‘Batch’ which went top #10 on Billboard electronic charts.
