The advent of virtuality has brought about a transformative era, where our desires can become a reality. We find ourselves in an exhilarating time, as Gorillaz once sang, where the digital realm refuses to let us go. Technology has revolutionized the music industry, particularly in the 21st century, where traditional rules and conventions have been obliterated and replaced with unimaginable and thrilling methods that allow anyone to explore, enjoy, and participate in the creation and appreciation of music.

Virtual Music delves into the intricate interplay between sound, music, and image, and the diverse users who engage with it. It explores the historical, technological, and creative practices associated with virtual music, examining its connections with creators, musicians, performers, audiences, and consumers. Shara Rambarran takes a deep dive into the fascination and innovations surrounding virtual music, showcasing key artists, creators, audiovisuals in video games and performances, audiences, and consumers who contribute to its remarkable phenomenon. Whether it is exploring the (un)realness of performers, the altered identities of artists, the technological manipulation of the Internet, the music industry, and music production, or the accessible opportunities for creativity, this book offers a fresh perspective on virtual music and resonates with readers who are eager to embrace this digital revolution.
