I saw in a back issue of BP that Pino was on the new D'Angelo album.
Has he done other hip hop work like this?
What do you guys think of the sound?
I've downloaded a couple songs and they sound very cool. |

| | | | I don't know if you remember but in the article pino said that he was playing a larry grahmam signature tuned downed to c#. It sounds great, and his lines are sooooo funky!!!!!! I have a bunch of the mp-3s myself and i think i am going to buy the album. He also played a p-bass tuned to D. I tried that and it was really fun. you should too. |

| | | | Anybody have/remember Pino's playing on Go West's debut album? |

I'v been listening to more of the D'Angelo and you're right, it's not fair to call it hip hop. But I really do like it, maybe because it is so undeffined, and a little dorky. |

| | | | I would not call this album undeffined at all. You guys are missing the point all together about D'angelo i think. He is a soul singer with a modern edge, he has a little rap on the album but it is really a R&B album. all the gooves are very R&B feel (other than spanish joint which has a latin feel). |

| | | | who ever it was that was going on about the "hip hop" feel of "Voodoo". It's not really rap at all it's actually modern R&B music. I respect D'angelo because i love R&B music and there are not too many people really playing in pop music today. Sure there is a quote R&B market but it mostly has little to do with the music. so that is what i was trying to say. |

| | | | I'm bumping this old thread - does anyone have the original article on Pino (Bass Player may 2000 issue)? |
02-19-2007, 02:08 PM
| | | | he played with john mayer for a while and the stuff he did for that was smokin hot, truly groovy bass lines. he's always in the pocket. solid stuff |

Pino's got groove and soul. |

| | | | I recently fell in love with this album again. D'Angelo's first album, Brown Sugar also has some excellent tracks... notably "Higher" which Will Lee absolutely kills on. But what I'm really interested in is how Pino gets that tone. Does he have rounds on his P? EQing? His dynamics and expression are ridiculous on this album. Absolutely top notch playing on par with my other favorite neo-soul album-- Hubert Eaves' playing on Erykah Badu's "Live" album. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
