Life & Work

  • Bio: Bright Dog Red (BDR), an improvising collective from Albany, New York, released Under the Porch on May 20, 2022. Under the Porch, marks the ensemble’s fifth album since signing with Ropeadope in 2018.

    Under the Porch features twelve tracks, recorded part by part, layer by layer, edit after edit, over a period spanning late 2020 to late 2021. The album, arguably BDR’s most accessible to date, features a new take on the ensemble’s “signature sound” a mix of “free-form jazz, funk, rock, and hip-hop” (Glide Magazine).

    Bright Dog Red, celebrated for “sublimely marrying jazz with hip-hop, funk, and electronic music" (JazzTimes), has long been “a fixture on the NYC jazz and improvisation scene” (Jazz Journal). The group’s "proudly unanchored improvisation" (Downbeat) has been described as “part Ornette Coleman and Prime Time, part Lounge Lizards, part A Tribe Called Quest” (JazzTimes). Others have compared the group to “Mahavishnu Orchestra meets Digable Planets” (Paul Schulman), “Romantic Warrior era Return to Forever” (Rimas e Batidas), and “electronic Ahmad Jamal" (Don Lucoff).

    Founded by Joe Pignato, BDR is comprised of a rotating cast of players. In addition to Pignato (drums, percussion, concepts), Under the Porch features Eric Person(soprano and alto saxophones, flute, effects), Tim Lefebvre (electric bass), Tyreek Jackson (electric bass and guitar), Cody Davies (sounds), Mike LaBombard (tenor saxophone, effects), Anthony Berman (acoustic bass), and Matt Coonan (poetry, freestyling, voice).

  • Quotes, Notes & Etc. ON UNDER THE PORCH
    Glide Magazine:
    "Genre-agnostic, uncategorizable, and intensely thrilling.
    Blue in Greek Podcast, UK:
    Renowned as an improvising collective from New York, Bright Dog Red's new album, 'Under the Porch', continues to present the band's unique vision for an all-encompassing approach to modern-day jazz celebrating inspirations from hip-hop, electronica and spiritual jazz. Thanks to their long-running association with one of the leading labels for contemporary and forward-thinking jazz music, Ropeadope Records, Bright Dog Red continue to deliver music that both challenges and inspires and 'Under the Porch' marks an exciting inclusion within the band's ever-expanding catalogue.

    ON IN VIVO
    JazzTimes:
    “Best kept secret in the avant-jazz underground…BDR has turned up nothing but aces over a rollicking three-album stretch on the Ropeadope label, sublimely marrying jazz with hip-hop, funk, and electronic music…part 1980s-era Ornette Coleman and Prime Time, part Lounge Lizards, part A Tribe Called Quest….The consummate genre-juggling party band.”
    Downbeat: "★★★ ½. Proudly unanchored improvisation....an unedited stream of musical consciousness...burns with bop swing. The melodic cogency, rhythmic clarity and sonic ingenuity in these ad hoc live improvisations astounds.”
    Glide Magazine: “BDR melds the influences of free-form jazz, funk, rock, and hip-hop into their signature sound. Much is made about improvisation or playing in the moment. While some bands pay casual reference to those phrases, as if to think it will improve their credibility, Bright Dog Red (BDR) makes it their mantra. They are the epitome of in-the-moment playing."
    Nu Jazz Sounds, UK: "Amongst the most exciting and creative jazz musicians out there today.”
    Blue in Green Podcast, UK: "A fantastic live set...genuinely thrilling."
    Best of Jazz: "Improvised music captured live...experimental jazz mixed with hip-hop, electronica, and a touch of krautrock: a refreshing discovery."

    ON SOMETHIN' COMES ALONG
    Nippertown:
    "Best of 2020. How can you NOT love a group that can pair sharp, funny, intelligent lyrics with a borderline-chaotic mix of jazz, rock and hip-hop unmatched by anyone in the game? Bright Dog Red is not a gimmick; it is a force to be reckoned with, and may the reckoning come soon for all of us!"

    "Jazz outfit riding creativity high."

    "Folds in a generous amount of hip-hop, funk, poetry and freestyling. The fact that the band has opened for Parliament Funkadelic says all we need to know."
    Bill Barnett, WVUD Radio:
    “With two hours of music, this is the most generous helping of skronk-hop you’ll see this year, dig in.”
    Joy Sounds Pod Cast:
    “Bright Dog Red is making it up as they go along, literally. All of their music is created in the moment, through free improvisation...brings together hip hop, electronica, psychedelia and noise into a spontaneous soundscape taking the listener on a journey through their spur of the moment process.”
    Notas Azuis, Portugal:
    “It is invention that drives Bright Dog Red, spontaneous and unrepeatable invention, the meeting of brains and lungs, of muscles and hands and throats, of ideas and dreams, of different experiences. Because there is always something that appears, that takes us to some other place. Life, like this music, is made up of a constant flow, with an unstoppable force, like that of the locomotive that adorns the cover of this album.”

    ON HOW'S BY YOU?
    Modern Drummer:
    “A seamless blend of seemingly disparate influences, creating a post-modern mélange that ranges from the familiar to the surprising…thought-provoking, toe-tapping, boundary-defying...inspired music.”

    “Best of 2019. Experimental and diverse…you ultimately stop trying to comprehend this unravelling psychedelic experience and just learn to accept its mesmerizing nature.”

    Jazz Journal, UK:
    “An enjoyable jazz and ‘hip-pop’ hybrid…a seamless and well-crafted product.”
    Blue in Green Radio, UK:
    “Spirited and inspired jazz that skillfully weaves in additional elements of electronica and hip-hop.”
    DJ Nick, UK:
    “Wild, refreshing, creative music. A sense of mystery because you don’t know where it’s going, where it’s going to end up, but it takes you on a journey. Cracking good music.”
    Green Arrow Radio:
    “Doesn’t fit into anything, and that’s just fine! So much going on…takes many, many listens before you feel like you’re not getting that one off, ‘this is mine,’ experience… an incredible capture.”

    ON BRIGHT DOG RED

    The Alt Weekly:
    “An innovative and psychedelic mesh of jazz, hip-hop and electronica.”
    The Bolg:
    “Put Albany’s Bright Dog Red on your radar as this jazzy psychedelic hip hop posse has potential for some progressive golden era goodness.”
    Louis Marks, CEO Ropeadope Records:
    “Bright Dog Red is perhaps the most unique band to grace the halls of Ropeadope, and that’s quite an accomplishment. Bright Dog Red hits the stage without charts or set list – they simply start playing and improvise, taking cues from each other and from the audience and room. It’s adventurous, and due to the skill and rapport of the players, surprisingly cohesive.”

I. IN THE BEGINNING THERE WAS BRAZIL: "The time has come for these bronzed people to show their worth..." (Assis Valente)

 


Quincy Jones>Alfredo Rodriguez>Munir Hossn>Roberto Mendes>Alumínio & João Saturno

 

II. AND THE MISSION (THE OPEN WORLD)

 

 

III. AND THE MIT ECONOMIST BEHIND THE CREATION OF THE BRAZIL-BORN Integrated Global Creative Economy

 

Matrix team-member Darius Mans, Economist (PhD, MIT), president of Africare (largest aid organization in Africa), presents Africare award to Lula (2012). From 2000 to 2004 Darius served as the World Bank’s Country Director for Mozambique and Angola, leading a team which generated $150 million in annual lending, including support for public private partnerships in infrastructure which catalyzed over $1 billion in private investment. Darius lives between Washington D.C. and Salvador, Bahia.

 

 

IV. LET THERE BE PATHWAYS!

 

"I am thrilled to receive your email! Thank you for including me in this wonderful matrix."

— Susan Rogers, Personal recording engineer for Prince at Paisley Park Recording Studio; Director, Music Perception & Cognition Laboratory, Berklee College of Music

 

"Many thanks for this - I am touched!" — Julian Lloyd Webber

 

"I'm truly thankful... Sohlangana ngokuzayo :)" — Nduduzo Makhathini, Blue Note Records

 

"Thanks, this is a brilliant idea!!" — Alicia Svigals, Klezmer violin, Founder of The Klezmatics

 

"This is super impressive work ! Congratulations ! Thanks for including me :)))" — Clarice Assad

 

"Thank you" — Banch Abegaze, manager, Kamasi Washington

 

 

The Matrix uncoils from the Recôncavo of Bahia, final port-of-call for more enslaved human beings than any other such throughout all of human history and from where some of the most physically and spiritually uplifting music ever made evolved...

 

 

...all essentially cut off from the world at large. But after 40,000 years of artistic creation by mankind, it's finally now possible to create bridges closely interconnecting all artists everywhere (having begun with the Saturno brothers above).

  • Rogério Boccato Brasil, Brazil

Curate anybody in here. You appear on their page. Anybody in here curates you, they appear on your page...

  • Amaro Freitas Maracatu

...plugged into a superpower: the small world phenomenon.

  • Burhan Öçal Singer

By the same mathematics positioning some 8 billion human beings within some 6 or so steps of each other, people in the Matrix tend to within close, accessible steps of everybody else inside the Matrix.

  • Jeffrey Boakye Radio Presenter

And by extension, to within discoverable reach of everybody everywhere on the planet.

  • Art Rosenbaum Illustrator

Small world curation is the Matrix's unprecedented innovation.

  • Hugo Viera Vargas Percussion

Because 40,000 years is a long time to wait.

  • António Zambujo Lisbon

And if all art is discoverable from everywhere, then Brazil's is too.

  • Liberty Ellman Record Producer

BUT WHY BRAZIL???

  • Carol Soares Santo Amaro

"The time has come for these bronzed people to show their worth..."

 

 

(Music by Assis Valente. Clip by Betão Aguiar. The Matrix was built in Salvador's Centro Histórico above, incorporating these marvelous people.)

  • Andrés Beeuwsaert Composer

Brazil is not a European nation. It's not a North American nation. It's not an East Asian nation. It straddles — jungle and desert and dense urban centers — both the equator and the Tropic of Capricorn.

  • Awadagin Pratt University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music Faculty

Brazil absorbed over ten times the number of enslaved Africans taken to the United States of America, and is a repository of African deities (and their music) now largely forgotten in their lands of origin.

  • Otis Brown III Composer

Brazil was a refuge (of sorts) for Sephardim fleeing an Inquisition which followed them across the Atlantic (that unofficial symbol of Brazil's national music — the pandeiro — the hand drum in the opening scene above — was almost certainly brought to Brazil by these people).

  • Mauro Diniz Cavaquinho

Across the parched savannas of the interior of Brazil's culturally fecund nordeste/northeast, where wizard Hermeto Pascoal was born in Lagoa da Canoa (Lagoon of the Canoe) and raised in Olho d'Águia (Eye of the Eagle), much of Brazil's aboriginal population was absorbed into a caboclo/quilombola culture punctuated by the Star of David.

  • Siba Veloso Ciranda

Three cultures — from three continents — running for their lives, their confluence forming an unprecedented fourth. Pandeirista on the roof.

  • Henrique Cazes Cavaquinho

Nowhere else but here. Brazil itself is a matrix.
