Creative background:

"Fade" created by Alan Walker in 2014 is the predecessor of "Faded". After the release of "Fade", it attracted the attention of Youtube music brand NCS. Alan Walker immediately released a remixed single "Faded" which was re-arranged from "Fade", and also invited Norwegian female singer Aisling Solhay Mu sang, and electronic music producer Ti?sto mixed the single.

The orchestral version of "Faded" was later released by Alan Walker because he was greatly inspired by film soundtrack producers such as Hans Zimmer and wanted to use another version to highlight the song. Elsewhere, the final decision was to replace this swoon-worthy breakdown with a sweeping string section.
