Alex Lozupone is a New York City–based jazz and rock musician and film director. As a musician, he is a member of Marc Edwards & Slipstream Time Travel, and has played with Percy Jones and Stephen Moses. As a director and cinematographer, he shoots mainly music shows in New York City, and has put up videos for artists such as Pet Bottle Ningen, Weasel Walter, Gato Loco, 24-7 Spyz, and Melvin Van Peebles, as well as readings by Samuel Delany. He has also received airplay on WFMU. In 2011, he released the first video associating the Occupy Wall Street movement with the Melvin Van Peebles song, Love, That's America. The video spawned several imitators. In 2012, he recorded and mixed Melvin Van Peebles' first album in 17 years, Nahh… Nahh Mofo. He then shot and edited, with Van Peebles, a video to accompany the album for Lilly Done The Zampoughi Every Time I Pulled Her Coattail.〔http://www.imdb.com/name/nm5441472/〕 Also in 2012 he joined Marc Edwards & Slipstream Time Travel, playing several gigs, including a fundraiser at the Cotton Club.〔http://storage.prezly.com.s3-external-3.amazonaws.com/57/a22372cc6f5d27db244bce219c02d9/MUSICIANS-LINE-UP.pdf〕 In 2013 he recorded and performed on two tracks on a benefit album for Donovan Drayton, which also featured Ronny Drayton, Paula Henderson, Jimi Hazel, and Burnt Sugar.〔http://4donovan.info/don/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/4DonovanLinerCredits.pdf〕 He also recorded and played on a release by Marc Edwards called Holographic Projection Holograms, an album which Steve Holtje listed as #12 in his ''Favorite Jazz albums of 2013''.〔http://culturecatch.com/music/steves-favorite-new-jazz-albums-2013〕 Holtje particularly praised Lozupone's configuration of splitting his guitar signal and routing it signal through a processor and bass amp, creating both a guitar and bass track. In 2014, he released a CD under the group name "Eighty-Pound Pug", with David Tamura and Paul Feitzinger. Bruce Gallanter of Downtown Music Gallery says of the CD, "Right from that opening salvo, this trio is powerful and impressive. Mr. Lozupone sounds as if he is playing some dark, metalish, heavy guitar with Mr. Tamura's sax also erupting intensely and Feitzinger strong drumming holding things together. Scary, punk/metal/free/jazz improv?!? Lozupoane does a fine job of playing powerful riffs, helping to keep the trio focused into a fire-breathing bohemeth. He uses effects likea wah-wah or distortion to fatten his sound into a more throbbing mass. Torture time? Indeed."〔http://www.downtownmusicgallery.com/Main/news/Newsletter-2014-06-06.html〕 ==Discography== * 2013 – Marc Edwards with Sonos Gravis – Holographic Projection Holograms〔http://www.downtownmusicgallery.com/Main/news/Newsletter-2014-06-06.html〕 * 2014 – Marc Edwards – Sakura sakura〔http://www.downtownmusicgallery.com/Main/news/Newsletter-2014-06-06.html〕 * 2014 – Pain Hertz with Nick Wolven and Carmine Guida – Sakura〔http://www.downtownmusicgallery.com/Main/news/Newsletter-2014-06-06.html〕 * 2014 – Alex Lozupone Project (aka Eighty-Pound Pug) with David Tamura and Paul Feitzinger – Poodle〔http://www.downtownmusicgallery.com/Main/news/Newsletter-2014-06-06.html〕 * 2015 - Eighty-pound Pug with David Tamura and Kevin Shea - donetsk donatello〔http://search2.downtownmusicgallery.com/lookup.cgi?item=2014_12_05_15_15_37〕 * 2015 - Eighty-pound Pug with David Tamura and Keith Abrams - First Meetings〔http://search2.downtownmusicgallery.com/lookup.cgi?item=2014_12_19_11_55_07〕 * 2015 - Eighty-pound Pug with David Tamura and Elliott Levin - tenoreleven〔http://search2.downtownmusicgallery.com/lookup.cgi?item=2014_12_05_15_15_10〕 * 2015 - Eighty-pound Pug with Steve Dalachinsky - Leave The Door Open〔http://search2.downtownmusicgallery.com/lookup.cgi?item=2015_07_17_16_47_03〕 * 2015 - Eighty-pound Pug - When The Flowers Bloom In Baltimore 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alex Lozupone」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
