Having already gifted fans an entire film earlier this month, Donald Glover has now shared new Childish Gambino music with listeners through a new AR app.

Titled "Algorythm," the track can be heard in its entirety using Glover's PHAROS AR app, which launched today. The app allows users to engage in an AR "experience" and unlock a series of loops, which eventually come together to form the full song.

Glover had previously included "Algorythm" in his live sets, and even emailed a demo of the song to fans last September.

At present, the PHAROS AR app is only available for Android users through the Google Play store, though Variety notes that an iOS version is in development.
