The soundtrack for a very special occasion back in May 2007, this one’s been sitting in the vaults without being heard for a good long while. The track list does exist somewhere, but where that is I cannot at the moment say…

Halcyonic Brotherhood (Progressive)

Good People Better Rise Up! is a podcast from Alex Whalen, a 25+ year veteran of the dance music industry who has rocked dancefloors across the Americas and Europe. Over his career, Alex has, among other things: held down residencies with legendary clubs like DC’s Buzz, SF’s Spundae, and Boston’s Avalon; managed Deep Dish's Yoshitoshi Shop and Yoshitoshi.com; appeared on numerous syndicated dance music radio shows, including John Digweed's show in the UK and Thump Radio here in the US; toured extensively with his long-time studio mate Dave Ralph, and, well... you get the idea. Having taken a break from the scene in 2008 so that he could complete a PhD in political science (and how many DJs do you know that could say that?), Alex is back with a new energy, adding drum + bass to an arsenal that already included an impressive array of both current and future downtempo, progressive house, and techno classics. Look for new shows roughly every two weeks featuring whatever tracks happen to be grabbing his attention at the moment. For more info, check out alexwhalen.com. See you on the dancefloor!

MLK Day 2019 (Progressive)

This one, well....let's just say that I recorded it at a moment when I wasn't feeling particularly optimistic about the state of the world around me. Although it took a much darker direction than the last few sessions, I'd like to think that you'll can still hear the hopefulness in it. Because as a much wiser man than me has written:...the death of all of our Michael Browns at the hands of people who are supposed to protect them originates in a force more powerful than any president: American society itself. This is the world our collective American ancestors wanted. This is the world our collective grandparents made. And this is the country that we, the people, now preserve in our fantastic dream. What can never be said is that the Fergusons of America can be changed—but, right now, we lack the will to do it.Perhaps one day we won't, and maybe that is reason to hope. Hope is what Barack Obama promised to bring, but he was promising something he could never bring. Hope is not the naiveté that would change the face on a racist system and then wash its hands of its heritage. Hope is not feel-goodism built on the belief in unicorns. Martin Luther King had hope, but it was rooted in years of study and struggle, not in looking the other way. Hope is not magical. Hope is earned.As always, All tracks legally purchase at Beatport.com and then very heavily edited by me.1. Zoom - My Soul feat. Wreckage Machinery2. Blu Mar Ten - Hunter feat. Seba (Original Mix)3.

Dreaming of Times Forgotten (Drum & Bass)

I'm in the process of putting together some new mixes, but while you wait here's something old skull and by request. Dagbah was the original B-side to Tatooine, the first mix I ever recorded a long, long time ago. As with its flip, this was recorded live on 3 turntables, 2 CD players, and a mixer in my living room. It starts a bit more uptempo than Tatooine, but it then dives well beyond deep... Sound quality not ideal, but given that we didn't yet have digital audio recorders, well....

Reposting this to the new feed by request... This one is from 1994, and is the very first mix I ever recorded. 3 turntables and 2 CD players, all running live into a single mixer. Some say the Star Wars samples make the mix; others say they ruin what would otherwise be the best set they've ever heard. All I know is, I'm as proud of this as anything I've ever done. Sound quality is less than ideal, but let's blame 1994 for that. Maxell cassettes could only get you so far!Apologies for the lack of a track list, but this one would be nearly impossible to reconstruct given that there are very few moments when a single source is playing. However, if you've got questions about a single segment, drop me an email at me at alexwhalen dot com and I'll let you know what was what.
