English musician [Sam Dust](https://twitter.com/dustinator?ref=protein.xyz) has released a new single, but instead of premiering the track through conventional channels, Dust, under the moniker LA Priest, has created a teaser website which plays snippets of the song.   
  
The project, called [Earth Window](http://earth-window.org/?ref=protein.xyz), asks users to take part in an online game. Searching through surrealist art works, the player must find a symbol, this will open a new tab, which in turn launches a new sound. The more symbols you find, and sounds you uncover, the more layered the music becomes. The game culminates in a final level where users are asked to find a green door, which, if they do find, allows them to listen to Dust's full and completed track, Onio.   
  
Dust had previously been of indie/electro band Late of Pier fame and hasn’t released anything since 2007\. Deciding to adopt an interactive approach to launch his return to the scene seems a good strategy in garnering attention and reengaging fans.   
  
The interactive music experience is proving a popular means of artists connecting with their audience. TCF, with his project [TCFX,](https://www.prote.in/en/feed/2015/01/tcfx?ref=protein.xyz) used a similar method to Dust, but instead of a game, users were asked to enter codes online to gain access to unreleased material.
