This is a pretty decent quality version of Illenium's intro that he used to use during his live sets. I love this and play it so often that I thought I would just share it with you all as sell. :D HOPE YOU ENJOY!

Awesome song! 🖤

[@curiousquestioner8598]

Afterlife still gives people chills....and Illenium knows it

[@esmith2k2]

best song

[@iza1021]

Still true HAHA but he hasnt been using it as an opening nor playing it much during his sets anymore

[@Skinnypig711]

@@iza1021he used in to open his first set at Trilogy LA. Won’t lie, I cried. Such a masterpiece.

[@MrMaximumOfficial]

Afterlife has to be one the best songs i have ever heard in my opinion

[@kaikaidapanda]

the lyrics are as real as it can ever get

[@dakshhanswal3472]

MrMaximum it is without a doubt

[@boulevardhall6564]

Kai Yuan He and EDEN have some of the best lyrics

[@coolinbeatsaber]

Boulevard Hall And that’s why their song Leaving was so good. EDEN’s voice went so good with Illenium’s melody for the song.

[@fluffypinkpanda3386]

Boulevard Hall Also echos.

[@mikey2x9]

“Don’t let me...”
Most crucial part of the build up

[@Thegoat30000]

Pretty sure it’s “ So let me” from disarm you by kaskade

[@water5795]

@@Thegoat30000 it’s from the dlmd remix from illenium

[@worlarusham]

@@Thegoat30000 nah it's "dont let me"

[@NewMelody]

The Awake intro is sick as well! Time vs Crawl Outta Love 🔥

[@JulianSchneider24]

Talked to him after his show in Cologne 1 month ago . Still one of the best moments of my life. He is so nice in person😊

[@EagleEyess]

Wow, the first buildup and drop is probably one of the greatest things I've heard in a long time, it hard for me to get chills from songs anymore because of how many different songs I've listen to, but that first drop did it

[@Ruschnav]

Hearing this live at EDC Las Vegas 2017 was absolutely amazing and words cannot describe the feelings I experienced when he played his set. The funny thing is for Day 1 (The day he played) the shuttles and traffic were absolutely ridiculous there and we were at a standstill in traffic for 30 mins and we were still 4 miles away. Our group said fuck it and walked in 100 degree heat, walking through the desert, jumping 4 fences, oh and a girl in our group had 2 fucked up ankles so me and one other dude had to carry this girl on our backs the entire way there.
Illenium was the first set we saw after that hike. And god damn it I'd be a filthy liar if I didn't say I cried like a bitch when he came on...

[@TheOfficialDSP]

Absolutely legendary memory right there🙌🏼

[@KingShibe]

I'll never forget the chills and excitement I had when I went to ILLENIUM'S show for the first time in DC and him opening with this. Was a great experience hearing this and his older stuff he played.

[@ChilllGuyy]

This intro:
90% illenium
5% The chainsmokers
5% Kaskade

[@agustactor]

realy!🤘

[@lostlupo]

put Daya instead of Chainsmokers lol

[@dat_one_dragonborn]

This intro:
10% good mix of other Illenium songs
90% Afterlife
...anybody else disappointed after how good the first section was, especially leading to the first drop?

[@kiingelijahh7160]

Dat_One_Dragonborn nope just you bud 👍🏽

[@esmith2k2]

i mean it was used for an illenium concert

[@freshfeet4183]

I'm speechless. I love Illenium. He's my fav. Artist. Hearing this is just amazing.
S.O. to proximity for this upload❤❤❤❤❤

[@Proximity]

:D

[@kimkim41569]

Fresh feet 😪🙄

[@jkarpinski14]

Illenium’s music is so golden, and I love when his songs blend together as beautifully as this.

[@miteshupadhyay6879]

Jonah Karpinski pure chills😍

[@sebsa5769]

Kurwa moja nauczycielka ma tak na nazwisko "/

[@Paintballpro18]

The melodic guitar pitched up while Echos hums her verses let's you know you are in for something different, then coming in with Daya repeating the famous "I need you right now" somehow bringing you further into the music: like this music and these sounds wouldn't exist without you, begging you to keep listening. A faint whisper of "let me disarm you" allows you to give more into the music, taking whatever it was you were holding onto away and allowing you to just enjoy what is about to come as it continues to build up. Once given into the song, it drops off slightly into a sincere "Close your eyes" while the melody continues to play in the background, letting you know it's still there but telling you to just become fully immersed in the experience. It repeats over and over to close your eyes and allow the music to take you to another dimension. That's only when it begins to build again, to bring you back, combining everything together, building, building, building, and then the drop. God how that drop just hits, the pureness of Afterlife blasting in your ears and just letting you jam however you want. Head nodding to the beat, feeling everything come rushing through you, and then Afterlife rounds out the rest of the song as it always has done so gracefully. It was one of Illenium's first greatest songs, and yet still holds that title 4 albums and hundreds of mixes/remixes later.
I won't lie, each time I hear this mashup I get choked up. His music to me always finds that bit of me that's vulnerable and just needs some comfort knowing as Echos says, to tell me I'll be fine. To tell me I can keep going, and just allow the music to guide me and let me be myself for a couple minutes and drown the outside world.
I know Illenium has touched many people who struggle with all sorts of things, and I'm so happy he can have such a positive impact to those people. While I might not be someone who has had it hard in life, be it something physical or mental, his music still hits me. That escape and freedom that only music can bring, that is what I listen for. Thank you Nick, I can't wait to see you again!

[@hbjetta]

Good comment and sorry to be the spoiler but he doesn’t say “close your eyes”, he says “because you’re all that I want”

[@djatlasmusik]

i have alot of favorite artists, but illeniums style influences me the most. I want to be just like him one day

[@Nancy_Shorts13]

​@@djatlasmusik did you buy the Ableton next day xD

[@Ryuzu_k]

I wish we can have this "intro" in perfect quality soon. It's... Cuting my words, I'm speechless. Illenium is a music lord, Proximity is a god's music channel and Raul gave a perfect animated background.

Honestly this is so fucking perfect. This is the best mashup that exist, at least for me :D I dont even know where to start...every song has almost the same amount mixed in and so many elements from different songs play at once but it all just sounds good together. Oh my god I'm in love ❣

How does this comment have no replies? Either way. Very much agreed.

[@torototoro1252]

i dont really hear that much of the "disarm you" remix in it tho :(

That initial drop how he stacked all the drops was breathtaking. would have like to hear the other songs a bit more cause it seemed to mostly be afterlife but still incredible and what talent on mixing those in the beginning

[@lukassorowka2672]

This is the most beautiful video I have ever watched

[@garrett1883]

I wished he continued with this opening. Now the past few shows have been Hans Zimmer's Time mixed with Crawl Outta Love. Which is still a really good intro, especially live, but this first intro was fire

[@AndyDJane]

Did that tonight here in Perth. Wish he kept this. Didn't even hear afterlife in tonight's set :-( was still an epic set one of the best I have seen

[@bachnguyen7411]

He did for his Throwback set in Colorado :) His new Awake 2.0 Intro is also a reminiscence of this
