[Electronic] - Tristam - Before We Fade [Monstercat Release] 

For some reason, hearing Tristam's voice is like hearing an old friend that you haven't heard from in a while. Point is, I freaking love Tristam.

The perfect finish to the Anniversary Album ❤️

Yup, Tristam never disappoints.

I'm a simple guy. I see Tristam, I click video.

Nostalgia is bringing me back to 2011/2012 with all of these releases

I just realised how the headphone cable resembled the tristam logo

Now we just need a Tristam & Braken track

I'm early let me make a joke… If con is the opposite of pro, what's the opposite of progress?

It just feels so sad hearing Tristam's music again and falling in love with them all over again, knowing he is distancing himself from the label and slowly removing his music from Monstercat...

Tristam songs make me question my very existence... So much EMOTION, so much TRUTH.

YES. JUST YES. TRISTAM ON MY BDAY. Couldn't ask for anything more!

Unfortunately Underated Song.

Wolverine got around and scratched the background a bit...

Truth - "the truth is running in our blood, the answers are lying here within" Before We Fade - "it's a useless waste of time, don't care what's on your mind, the truth is never for us to find" MAKE UP YOUR MIND TRISTAM

Tristam's music tickles me in weird places

Who agrees that VEVO songs are overrated and monstercat is very much so underrated?

Three years ago, when someone asked me who my favorite musician was, I did not know what to answer. Now I can proudly say "Tristam"

lol fastest ive been to a release

[Verse 1] If the road of truth is fine Which one of us is out of line? Although you say you can prove more I can feel it down to my core In a world where our word's gold I sit and believe what I'm told But in this blue world filled with bones I'll just keep dancing on my own [Chorus] It's a useless waste of time I don't care what's on your mind The truth was never for us to find We could lock horns all day But really, who cares what we say? We will be lost before we fade [Verse 2] I can almost hear it cry This feeling you somehow deny Just how do you fail to hear The roaring grinding of your gears? As you dictate the laws Your future self unearths the flaws And some of us who are awake Watch as you are fixing your mistakes By and by, you'll understand The subtle movements of the land Within the limits of these chains There's only so much to explain One day you will find this wall The one that's infinitely tall And as we move the hour hand Are we just dancing in the sand? [Chorus] It's a useless waste of time I don't care what's on your mind The truth is never for us to find We could lock horns all day But really, who cares what we say? We will be lost before we fade

damn tristam

Dropped harder than my exam grades

Goodbye Monstercat 5 year album :( But what a way to end it off :D

OH SHIT. IM 5 DAYS LATE

LOOK TRISTAM !!! no wait, LISTEN.

And while Tristam might have moved on, I haven't. After all this time, even though I haven't listened to EDM actively in years, I still look for qualities in songs that Tristam first introduced me to. Hats off to what he's done. I'm just sad he got tired of it.

I find it ironic that all of tristam's other songs have millions of views, and this one, which has the same quality as some of his best, only has 700,000 views(if you're reading this in the future, i said this in december of 2016)

This song makes me genuinely happy

Cool song! I'm so early

The master of Monstercat had to feature in the Anniversary! Another great Tristam track :)

I somehow feel connected to this song, the haunting reverberations like an empty room filled with echoes of times past, the lyrics that describe people waking up from petty arguments that really hold no weight in their lives, coupled with the sweet sounds of the front of this songs score. The entire song to me feels like someone realizing what they've lost and can never get back after meaningless arguments or disagreements. I have fallen in love with this song.

Just look on cabel, isn't it reminds you of something? :P

I keep coming back to this song. I think it's incredibly underrated, and this is from a guy who doesn't really like most of Tristam's tracks. The chord progression has me so in love

man i miss u tristam..

That song made me cry...

Tristam!!

the prequel to alan walker?

last monstercat song to have the genre in the title

I listened to this a year ago and when i come back, i start singing the lyrics correctly with no clue what to sing. Ahh memories.

The Headphone wire easter egg though.

This song makes me feel like someone very smart is giving me an advice

Be glad this comment isn't a pun.

Lucky time to check Monatercat channel

If you see this comment have a nice day :)

This makes me want a Tristam & Porter Robinson collab

this song makes me cry because It was playing when an important thing in my life happened, and I was crying then and when I ehar this I start crying and I'm crying of happiness xD

Yes Tristam now only Braken and I'm set

Still wonderful one year later. Thank you for this birthday gift, Tristam and Monstercat. I love all you guys :)

What a beautiful way to end this album :) Much love for the whole Monstercat for these 2 awesome weeks! Big THANK YOU to all of the artists, especialy for the ones that were featured on this album!

*Lyrics:* If the road of truth is fine Which one of us is out of line? Although you say you can prove it more I can feel it down to my core In a world where our word’s gold I sit and believe what I’m told But in this blue world filled with bones I’ll just keep dancing on my own (On my own, on my own…) It’s a useless waste of time I don’t care what’s on your mind The truth is never for us to find We could lock horns all day But really, who cares what we say? We will be lost before we fade I can almost hear it cry This feeling that you somehow deny Just how did you fail to hear The roaring, grinding of your gears Cause you didn’t take the loss Your future self honors the flaws And some of us will rot awake Watching you as you fix all your mistakes But while you’ll understand Subtle movements of the land Within the limits of these chains There’s only so much to explain One day you will find this wall The one that’s infinitely tall And as we move the hour hand Are we just dancing in the sand? It’s a useless waste of time I don’t care what’s on your mind The truth is never for us to find We could lock horns all day But really, who cares what we say? We will be lost before we fade.

Anybody love this part the most (1:08)

SammyGreen 1000 stars montage anyone?

Who from SammyGreen?

5 years... damn, I still remember going here asking "Who's here from Dotawtf?"

anyone here from Sammygreen?

This song doesn't get old. So beautiful

And there it is. Two of the greatest weeks in Monstercat history, gone by. What an amazing 5th anniversary celebration. Here's to 5 more years.

hi

This comment will fade just like all the others but *Before It Fades* thanks for reading it if ya did and have a amazing day.~

I swear this sounds like it should be in No Mans Sky.

Has Au5 and Fractal left Monstercat? I hope the haven't because they are my all time favourite and will always be, even if they have left.

Listening to Tristam's songs amongst all the other songs on my playlist is so refreshing. It's as if you step outside from a warm stuffy room and breathe in the cool night air

Before We Fade into the comment section, I just wanted to say how great this song is!

Coming back to this song makes the nostalgia fill in, and yes I shed a tear. But this song is enough to make a grown man cry

Tristam is always a win. The music, The voice, everything: A W E S O M E I freaking love your music Tristam. Keep it up!!

People need to stop with the hate comments seriously. Its no wonder everyone says monstercat's fanbase is bad. Unless you guys can make a decent track, dont say these artists suck or overated because every single one of them can make a better track than you guys will ever make in your lifetime.

I hope Tristam will release more tracks like this one, nothing but love for it

Now Before we fade release ! Time to Justify and "He would, glow" :D

this song is makes me sooooo nostalgic :,) all those childhood memories are packed here, thank you Tristam for making this

this song is my fave of alltime Thank you Tristam & Monstercat for this amazing song

We could lock horns all day But really, who cares what we say? We will be lost before we fade

This song takes me back to my best memories. Wow

probably my favorite song of his

Listen to this at 0.5x speed. Amazing and sad.

My friends called me weird back then for listening to Unknown music. And I’m glad I stayed the same. ❤ Still listening to Tristam 🤍

This most certainly didnt disappoint me with it being the ending to Monstercat's 5th anniversary!!!! I like the emotional tone as well 💜💜💜💜 Genre: Future Bass | Synthpop Score: 94/100

this honestly has to be tristam's most phenomenal song ever, thats why i love it

Even Tristam knows that he is far away from faded...

Four years old today and amazing as ever.

When i hear this song, i feel emotional, and i feel like im crying..

Im disappointed that i missed this song when it released. Fucking banger.

What a nice way of wake up, with a different and sick new song by Tristam. Her voice with the melody are just fire.

Coming soon!: I'm willing to bet that Marshmello - Alone (MRVLZ Remix) is coming out next week, if not Monday. Monstercat announced them as the winners of the contest, so I imagine it will be released soon. :D

I can't believe how well this song turned out. It's just a beautiful song that reminds me of Empire Of Sound for some reason. Tristam never fails to amaze me.

Anyone came from sammygreen?!?

This kind of music should be on radio not Justin Biever 24/7 -.-

The King has returned

has anybody realized that the radio said "...no"

The depth...Tristam is a true artist.

Anyone in 2022?

This song is great but Tristam has better songs like Till It's Over or Remember.

The tombstone of colored visual audio bars: 2011-2016 We will miss you...

This Kind of Reminds of steven Universe

"Tristam is overrated af!" BOI , this haven't even gotten 1 mil views after 10 months !

somehow, to me this song felt like it have a connection with bone dry

Idk what people are talking about. This version is amazing. Tristam did an amazing job. Fucking stupid that it was leaked a year ago, or we wouldn't have any stupid discussions
