Featured Artist: Alan Wilkis
2008-06-09 21:30:00 Based out of Brooklyn, Alan Wilkis is a multi talented instrumentalist and producer, who has recently released his debut album "Babies Dream Big".Pretty much everything you hear on the record Alan has recorded himself, and then also produced the whole thing in his own way too. He's created a quite stunning collection of tracks, which when put together leads to a pretty hot debut release.

A huge collage of images displays a wide array of artists, from Queen, Radiohead, Jeff Buckley, Black Flag, Slayer (!), Michael Jackson, the list just goes on and on, from genre to genre, decade to decade.

The track has a real groove to it, wi...
