The Norwegian EDM artist delivers life-affirming bass drops

England-born, Norway-raised Alan Walker turned his early interest in computers into an award-winning career. After learning music production and programming from online tutorials, he rose to prominence with 2015's melancholic heartbreaker “Faded”, a song about lost love featuring heavenly vocals and dramatic synth blasts. This evocative brew of vocals-driven EDM has come to embody Walker's work, exemplified by singles such the neon-lit break-up bop “All Falls Down” and remixes like his iteration of Sia's euphoria-inducing “Move Your Body”—a clubbier song fixed firmly on the dance floor.
