About this sound

✦ AI

A remixed version of Alan Walker's Faded, with its haunting melody reworked for edits, montages and short videos that need an emotional electronic drop.

This short remix takes the familiar piano-led melody of Faded and rebuilds it with a punchier electronic beat, layered synths and a driving rhythm that builds quickly toward its drop. The vocal hook stays recognisable, but the faster tempo and heavier bass give it more energy than the original, making it feel urgent and cinematic rather than melancholic. It works best as a burst of atmosphere in a video, lifting a slow reveal, a travel montage or a dramatic transition and giving the viewer an instant sense of momentum and emotion without needing the full song.

Faded was originally released in 2015 by Norwegian producer Alan Walker, and its distinctive melody quickly made it one of the most recognisable electronic tracks of the decade. As the song spread through YouTube, TikTok and gaming edits, countless fan remixes reworked its tempo and bass for shorter videos. This version follows that pattern, keeping the core hook while adding a harder electronic edge. Its familiarity and emotional pull are why creators still reach for it for montages, reveals and highlight reels years later.

Pro Tip for Usage

✦ AI

Drop it just before a reveal, letting the build swell under the setup and cutting to the action on the drop. Pair it with slow-motion footage or a fast montage, and avoid looping it, as the short remix loses impact if played twice.

Use Cases

✦ AI
  • Adding emotion to a travel montage or recap video.
  • Soundtracking a dramatic reveal or transformation clip.
  • Building tension before a sports highlight or win.
  • Setting the mood for a slow-motion edit.
