Alan Walker (music producer) Alan Olav Walker (born 24 August 1997), occasionally known as DJ Walkzz, is a Norwegian record producer and DJ. He is best known for the 2015 single Faded, which received platinum certifications in over 10 different countries. He was ranked 55th on DJ Mag's Top 100 DJs list of 2016.
Rare Earth continued with another nine chart hits for the label, including the top-10 I Just Want To Celebrate [Rare Earth 5031] in the summer of 1971. Another of the first groups signed to the label was the Messengers, who had started in Minnesota then moved to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in 1966.
By 1968, they changed their name to Rare Earth and signed with Verve for an unsuccessful album. Motown hired them for their new label the next year. The label was actually named for the band and not vice versa. Motown had yet to name the label when Rare Earth band members suggested jokingly that they name it Rare Earth. Apparently, Motown thought that name as good as any other. Rare Earth's 21+ minute workout on the Temptations' Get Ready, one of the last of the really long FM hits, was edited down to under three minutes for a single that made #4 [Rare Earth 5012, 3/70].
