Cinemacraft Launches Video-On-Demand Music Application for iOS
Singapore, September 1, 2011: Cinemacraft, a leading provider of interactive mobile content solutions, today announced the launch of Cinemacraft Jazzdoraku, a Japanese jazz video-on-demand (VOD) application. Released in collaboration with independent Japanese jazz label, Jazzdoluck, the iOS app will feature 100 Japanese jazz artists with new additions every month.
“Japan has a long and rich history associated with jazz. Introduced to the Japanese population in the 1920s, jazz quickly gained popularity, reaching international audiences by the 1950s. We are thrilled to partner with Cinemacraft to create another platform to bring Japanese jazz to local fans and the larger international community,” said Tohru Ogawa, Founder, Jazzdoluck KK.
Ogawa said Japan still boasts of a thriving jazz community with more local and modern elements being introduced to the art form. “The music has touched the lives of many over the years and has a following amongst the older and younger generations alike,” he added.
Currently available across all iOS devices including iPhones, iPads and iPods, the application will also be launched for Android at a later date. The online VOD music service provides consumers 50 hours of music at this time.
“Japan has an extremely vibrant culture. Cinemacraft hopes to introduce Japan's rich local art forms to global audiences while contributing to the growth of the local entertainment market,” commented Sandeep Casi, Founder & CEO, Cinemacraft.
After Cinemacraft Jazzdoraku, the company hopes to further extend its platform to Japanese Anime, Japanese Comics, Japanese movies and Japanese Pop. “Our Create Once Publish Everywhere interactive media broadcast cloud will also enable the introduction of a lot of global content to Japan, offering the local audiences greater choice and the global content holders a whole new market,” Casi added.
Cinemacraft Jazzdoraku can be downloaded for free on the iTunes App Store at http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/jazzdoraku/id453649500?ls=1&mt=8.
