Blasphemous! First Of Two Newly Released Songs About Heaven Wages All Out War in Heaven
Internet marketing maverick, record producer and writer John David Balla desired for many eons to merge his analytical works alongside his creative keenness for creating provocative music and video into a single medium.
Now technology has finally stepped up.
His first of 2 Multimedia Ebooks, sold and distributed by CathedralRockPublishing.com, is a landmark moment in multimedia ebook applications, juxtaposing theological research with a music video interpretation of that research.
It all started over a dinner conversation about the Book of Genesis. “I just knew that there wasn’t something write about this story, something that the average Theologian didn’t like us to know, so I made up my mind to take a crack at it myself,” Balla recalls, who specialized in sociology and psychology at Blackburn College back in the mid 80s.
For the music promo that followed, Balla found inspiration from the edgy sensibility of Lou Reed, and the spiritual disbelief of Bill Maher‘s hard hitting documentary, Religulous.
An early demonstration version of the song, In Heaven (there aint no), was helped along by KISS frontman Paul Stanley, who advised adding a bridge between the second and third verses. The rest, as they say, is eBookhistory.
“With our multimedia e-book applications, book publishers, record companies, and even hardcore scholars now don’t need to rely Old Skool publishers,” said CathedralRockPlushing.com founder, Stephen Smoke. “What’s more, we are finding all types of paths to generate new cash streams by repurposing the assets these companies already have, yet at a little part of the price of creating other ones. This is especially enticing to music and print publishers, both of whom have been tormented by declining sales for years,” Smoke added.
Not just multimedia eBooks.
While the eBook reader market is growing exponentially, the main part of content consumption still continues to reside on Computers via the Net. As such, CathedralRockPublishing.com will continue to market and distribute standalone / companion MP3 singles and records, music videos, and PDF documents of its multimedia eBooks for non-iPad users. As such, the company is clearly in great shapepositioned to meet all current and future wishes of virtually any client as the meaning of what a book is and what music is, continues to cloud.
As such, Balla’s music video and critique of the initial two books of Genesis are available in a variety of formats, including
- MP3
- .ePub for eBooks
- and PDF for non tablet device users.
- WMV, MP4, and M4v Video
Not all e-book readers created equally.
Because of both its acceptance as well as its ability to accommodate video and MP3s, CathedralRockPublishing.com develops its multimedia eBooks for Apples iPad as the benchmark electronic book reader, using the standard .EPUB file schema with definitely nil exclusive code. “We also can support Amazons Kindles exclusive .MOBI format, which we are hoping will sometime support sound and video like the iPad,” related Smoke.
For the moment, CathedralRockPublishing.com has desisted from creating propriety Apple programmes for Apples iBookstore. “The explanation is simple,” remarked Smoke. “We just dont need to. Buyers download our .EPUB products right from our storefronts, and that’s it. The product is automatically added to the iPads iBookshelf just like any other eBook,” he said.
