BDR is committed to top quality entertainment across the board and firmly believes that quality, palatable entertainment can be realized without compromising commercial appeal.

BDR distinguishes itself through the commitment it undertakes with each of its artists and their music. Contrasting the typical scenario in which a record company spends more money producing the music that they do in its marketing and promotion, BDR will utilize a stable of experienced and resourceful producers, namely BDR Chairman RICHIE CANNATA and BDR Vice President EREN CANNATA, to ensure the highest quality product within established production budgets. This, in conjunction with the first rate studio facilities available to BDR, guarantee the impetus necessary to create winning products in the marketplace.

BDR is composed of three internal divisions: Brown Dog Records, Brown Dog Music, and Cove City Sound Studios. The company will compete and earn revenue immediately through the creation of several lucrative profit centers, beginning with pre-recorded music [compact discs (CDs), enhanced CDs (sound & picture combination), CD Rom, cassette tapes and vinyl albums.] Additional income will be produced from distribution, video, merchandising and concert promotion.

Each of the albums that BDR produces and owns will create valuable short and long term streams of revenue. Owning and controlling the rights to each of its albums and the compositions embodied thereon, will enable BDR to grow its music catalog into a valuable multi-million dollar asset, one of several revenue producing assets.

The talented group of individuals who have united to form this innovative company, combined with industry affiliations and a highly esteemed Board of Directors, will catapult BDR into the future as one of the industry's leading entertainment companies.
