“Push Turn Move was the book that started it all for us, and it was truly a labor of love,” says Kim Bjørn, CEO and Founder of Bjooks. “At the time it was released just four years ago, I had no idea that it would take on a life of its own, or that it would be read by so many electronic music fans around the world. Since its original release, there have been many new innovations in the electronic music industry, so I thought it was time for an update.”
Pricing and Availability
Push Turn Move is available for $69 USD.
This kind of porn (synth-porn) is ok to leave out on the living room coffee table, and not worry about people dropping by and what they might think about it.
Free update for existing users? Oh. I guess hardcover books do have a few disadvantages. (It is an awesome coffee table book though.)
Would have been a lot cooler to put out smaller addendums, so existing owners could add a “volume” and not loose the initial investment. A second edition this soon after the first pretty much splits the market in an unwelcome way.
It’s been four years and the landscape has changed, you think four years is too soon for a second edition?
