"Spectrum" is a song by Russian–German electronic music producer Zedd. It features the vocals from American singer Matthew Koma.[1] It was released as a single on June 4, 2012,[2] and serves as the second single from Zedd's debut studio album Clarity. It was written by Koma and Zedd.[3]

An extended play of the track – featuring remixes by Armin van Buuren, Arty, Deniz Koyu, as well as Congorock – was released on July 31, 2012. It also features a track titled "Human" (a collaboration with Nicky Romero), which was also released as a single on July 31, 2012.[4]

TVXQ's Yunho, Super Junior's Donghae and Eunhyuk, EXO's Kai and Lay and SHINee's Taemin and Minho under the project name S.M. The Performance released a Korean version, featuring the vocals of Taemin, Donghae and Yunho. This version was released on December 30, 2012 by S.M. Entertainment and the proceeds were given to charity.[5]

There is also a Japanese remix, which features English vocals by Hatsune Miku, made by the Japanese music group, Livetune, which is featured in the Japanese release of Zedd's album Clarity.[6] Livetune had originally remixed the song as a fan of Zedd's music and Zedd was impressed with the result of the remix and asked for it to be included in the Japanese release as a bonus track.
