Alan Wilkis' production first caught my attention with his KickDrums collaboration this past October, which was the first release from his PRINTS series. The interactive 360-degree music video for that was on another level, too. Well, now he's back with the second release from the series, and it's another jam. Showcasing some soulful singing from [...]

Prints is a series of singles, remixes, and videos that Brooklyn-based Alan Wilkis has been working on for nearly two years. Each "print" features collaborations with different vocalists: Childish Gambino, Lyrics Born, White Hinterland, and more. Wilkis' goal was to draw each artist out of their comfort zone to create a piece of work that is unmatched. His first "print" features The Kickdrums; whom he's co-produced their recent album, Meet Your Ghost . The print takes The Kickdrums sound to new heights and that's what Wilkis is trying to do. He slowed down the track, but it still felt [...]

Lyrics Born and Lateef the Truthspeaker are joined by Skins & Needles (Max MacVeety, DJ Zeph), Kat O1O (Crown City Rockers) and Jazz Mafia as they rehearse for this past weekend's epic Outside Lands show.
The final day of Outside Lands festival, arguably the best day of music of the three days, depending on who you talk to of course. On my schedule were 8 bands that I marked out the previous night, but as the day wore on and my feet became broken, that game plan changed, though I [...]

Headnodic knows his West Coast MC's and he's gettin the best of 'em on his newly released album, Red Line Radio . Surprisingly though, this isn't what made the album, Headnodic's production and ability to build something around the vocalist sets this above any ordinary mix of some of my favorite MC's. Not only that, my favorite track isn't by the classic MC's I grew up on, but Ms. Destani Wolf. Latyrx & Kat 010 - Movin' on Up Damn is it fresh to hear Latyrx back [...]
