Alan Walker, a prominent figure in the electronic dance music (EDM) scene, has made significant strides since his early days. Influenced by producers like K-391 and Ahrix, as well as film composers Hans Zimmer and Steve Jablonsky, Walker began crafting music on his laptop using FL Studio.
"Faded" is a song by Norwegian record producer and DJ Alan Walker. Incorporating vocals provided by Norwegian recording artist Iselin Solheim, the single was originally set to be released on 25 November 2015, but was delayed to 3 December 2015. The song was highly successful, peaking in the top 10 in most of the countries it charted in, and reached the top spot in more than 10 countries. It is currently the 26th most viewed video on YouTube, with over 2.0 billion views as of October 2018.
Walker debuted a live performance of "Faded" with Iselin Solheim and string support on 27 February 2016 at X Games Oslo 2016.[2] The performance was aired live on Norwegian television.
his personal information
birthdate, his story.
SuWalker was originally known as "DJ Walkzz". Since he has been a part of many producing groups, he later became just "Walkzz". He ended up using his real name, Alan Walker, as his artist name. The recognisable logo consists of intertwined letters "A" and "W", the initials of his name, was designed by Walker himself in 2013.[52] He also uses a hoodie and face mask resembling the concept of black bloc on stage to create the rest of the image.[53]
"At the very beginning, we were thinking about ideas like how can we promote Alan Walker as an artist, and then we created a symbol that's kind of almost attach anyone. Therefore, you can just have the hoodie and the mask and you immediately become a 'Walker'. That's also a sign of no matter who you are, you can be a 'Walker', we're all equal." Walker explained the concept of his look, in an interview by KKBox.[54] When asked in an interview by NRK, why he used the mask, he said: "It is to keep a low profile while maintaining the public image they have given me. I think it's pretty cool. A little twist that makes people ask themselves questions about who really is the person behind Alan Walker", and added, "Basically, all of the data-world, focus on anonymity. Anyone can join Alan Walker, and the masks show that they can be anyone."[53]
In the first promo pictures his management handed out, Walker's face was barely visible at all. Also in the music video for his single "Alone", he is dressed as a black shadow figure. This is, according to the artist himself, a carefully planned image drawn up together with the record company Sony. "In a meeting with them we talked about how we could build the profile of Alan Walker", said Walker to the newspaper VG. "They asked about my interests. I replied PC, computer gaming and stuff like Anonymous and computer hacking where hoodies play a role."[55]
At a press conference on 9 November 2016, Walker said: "The concept with the mask is very cool, that is inspired by the hacker group "Anonymous" and the television series Mr. Robot. I have a background as a gamer and kept on with it before I started with music. By taking on a mask I can be immediately seen as a gamer."[56]
"A lot of people ask me why I am wearing a mask. The mask is more of a sign and a symbol of unity and being alike each other, rather than me being different." said Walker, behind the scenes of the single "Alone".[57][58]btopic
012–15: Debut on NoCopyrightSounds and "Faded" In 2012, Walker was listening to a song by David Whistle (formerly known as DJ Ness), and reached out to the Italian DJ to find out how he produced his music. He was inspired by EDM producers K-391 and Ahrix, and is also influenced by film composers like Hans Zimmer and Steve Jablonsky.[9] He started all his music on his laptop with FL Studio. In July 2012, with the help and feedback from his fans online, he began pursuing his music production career and slowly began posting his music to YouTube and SoundCloud. Walker released the track "Fade" on 17 August 2014.[10] The track gained attention after its re-release via the record label NoCopyrightSounds on 19 November.[11] Walker stated that the creation of the track was inspired by K-391 and Ahrix, whose tracks were also picked up by the record label. The track has over 300 million views on YouTube,[12] 79 million plays on Spotify,[13] and 20 million streams on SoundCloud.[14] It has become the most popular track on the channel, and is widely used by YouTubers in their videos. The tracks "Spectre" and "Force" followed in 2015. Walker signed with MER Musikk under Sony Music Sweden and his next single, "Faded", was a remastered vocal version of "Fade". It was released on 8 December and featured uncredited Naustdal pop singer Iselin Solheim.[15] The single topped the year-end charts in Austria, Germany, Switzerland and Sweden, iTunes charts in 32 countries, as well as entering top 10 in Spotify Global Chart. The music video on YouTube has over 1.9 billion views and 12 million likes,[16] placing it among the top 10 most liked YouTube videos. It has over 780 million plays on Spotify,[17] and is also one of the Top 10 Most Shazamed tracks of 2016.[18] The single also received official remixes from Tiësto,[19] Dash Berlin and Hardwell. He later released an acoustic "restrung" version of the song, with all the EDM elements taken out.[20]
Walker is a son of Hilde Omdal Walker, a Norwegian, and Philip Alan Walker, an Englishman. By birth, he was granted dual citizenship on the basis of his parental origin. At the age of two, he moved to Bergen, Norway with his parents and sister. Walker grew up with two siblings, an older sister, Camilla Joy, born in England, and a younger brother, Andreas, born in Norway after the family moved from the United Kingdom.
Growing up in the digital era, Walker found an early interest in computers, which later turned into a fascination for programming and graphic design. He initially had no musical background; however, he later taught himself by watching tutorials on YouTube based on music production.

Lay Zhang and Alan WalkerLay Zhang and Alan Walker
Alan Walker and Lay have debuted an explosive new audio-visual, premiering exclusively via Billboard Dance today (Aug. 30). The Norwegian producer worked for months with the Chinese superstar, perfecting a new sound for both entertainers.
Lay got his start in South Korean-Chinese boy band EXO. "Sheep" debuted on Lay's breakout solo album Lay 02 Sheep, originally with a wonkier electro-pop sound. The Walker "Relift" is darker with a cinematic trap edge. Lay recorded new vocals for the cut, which Walker premiered at Lollapalooza in Chicago earlier this month.
The "Sheep Relift" video plants Lay firmly in the surreal dystopia of Walker's "World Of Walker," a sci-fi storyline that started with his "Tired" video.
Walker's traditional bounce-step beat rings through the stormy melody. It's a bold sound from both the Eastern and Western stars, definitely a cool meeting of the minds.
