definitely he is a modern legend along with Tiesto... I'd be honored if some Zedd fans who appreciate 80s/90s classics would check out my acoustic piano & vocal covers of PURPLE RAIN by Prince and PRAYING FOR TIME by George Michael on my YT channel in tribute to 2 of the greatest vocalist-songwriters in music history. Live acoustic with no autotune. Thanks and RESPECT to the legends of both yesterday and today.
Lucille Henriquez Chovet Knew it immediately the first time I heard it. The drop part of the song already sounds so much like Zedd, especially his gritty bass style.
Super happy he talked about Spectrum. It's not one of the most notorious tracks of him, but it's the one that really made him known and cemented him in the EDM community, right before Clarity propelled him in the mainstream scene. A bit bummed he's not talking about I want you to know, Beautiful now and Starving (the last one has a cool story behind) Still a great video :)
@@pvspreetham If I'm not mistaken some songwriter called Asia Whiteacre wrote it then sent it to Grey who then produced it. Then they sent it to Zedd who then showed it to Hailee. So yeah that's pretty interesting
I follow him since 2010, and he’s one of my favorite producers of all the time. He’s not only a “dj” he’s a music genius, not for the “comercial tracks” that the radio needs, it’s more than that. If anybody want to know him, hear the anthem, then hear stars come out, then hear all the tracks of clarity and finally hear Done With Love and True colors (the original version) I start to follow him when I was 15 and for that time he sings in GoldFish Recs with people like Porter Robinson, great days guys. By the way, i remixed the Middle just because I respected him so much 🙏
We need a part 2 so he can talk about, “Beautiful Now” (aka my favorite), “I want you to know” “Get Low” and “Starving” 😍🤩 I love Zedd’s music so much!
Yess I agree! I saw him live in July 2018... He waved back to me a few times!! I've been waiting for 3 years to see him, one of the best moments in my life for sure. When he played Spectrum I was screaming so bad...
KESHA!! Thank you Zedd for what you did for her. I will forever be grateful, she saved my life and you helped her get through the torture of not being allowed to release music. Thank you
@@Rich-gd4fc If you don't still know by now , find out about it on you tube or wikipedia or rolling stone or her web site. The story is much to involved for a comment page but boy oh boy is it a doozie and will go down as one of music history's major events!
Spectrum was his best. I used to really love Zedd, and I respect his decision to go into more dance pop, but his other two fellow prodigies, Porter and Madeon are in another level when it comes to creativity.
Literalllyyyyyy, I saw Madeon in September, Porter in October and nowwww I’m seeing Zedd at Avant Gardner. I’m definitely an old Zedd fan BUT I’m excited to relive the excitement and see his progression. SO EXCITED because I know what this man is capable of!

After all these years, Spectrum is still my favorite track of him. There’s something so special about the chord progression change of that song and I think that’s the track that defined his signature electro house sound
I love a lot of those songs, but "Stay" is truly iconic for me. Stay brings back such memories. The first time I heard it was one of the best nights of my life. I don't think I'll ever be able to forget the song even if I wanted to.
I heard clarity at a random place without even much clarity of the lyrics being sung and searched for it for almost six months to find it. Now it is one of the songs on my playlists for the longest time.
Learning that Zedd made Beauty and a Beat makes me feel the the same way I did when I found out that Avicci made Sky Full of Stars.. shocked but also disappointed that it took me so long to figure out. We need to know their works so that we can appreciate them before they are gone..:( RIP Avicci
Spectrum is literally the song that turned me on to producing electronic music. It was a bit of a revelation. The chord progression in it is truly magical and Matthew's voice is amazing.
Nur Sharmil Aqamar Safeei Porter is the GOAT in producing. I just hope to see him as Porter again and that he drops an album next year. I still love Virtual Self but I need a Porter album after more than 4 years
I'd love to hear him do an official collab with Bebe Rexha on something. She has this crazy voice that's capable of hitting really high notes. If one of her songs comes on, you can tell who it is immediately. Would probably match up perfectly with Zedd's style of writing.
"Clarity". "Stay The Night" with Hayley Williams of Paramore. "Spectrum". "Beauty And A Beat" with Bieber and Minaj. "Break Free" with Ariana Grande. "Beautiful Now" with Jon Bellion. "I Want You To Know" with Selena Gomez. "Stay" with Alessia Cara. "The Middle" with Maren Morris and Grey. The "Lost In Japan" remix with Shawn Mendes. "True Colors" with Ke$ha. "Get Low" with Liam Payne. "Happy Now". “365” with Katy Perry. Like this comment if you like all these songs.
Aww no mention of "Find You" 😭 that one is my all time favorite. Stay the Night is second and Spectrum is 3rd. I love Find You so much that I plan on using that song in my wedding 💍💞
Love zedd, he was a big part of my childhood. I was actually surprised that a lot of his new stuff was made by him since his music has changed so much but it’s still a great listen.
@@karlstanley2851 to summarise there was some beef with Diplo and Zedd. Diplo mentioned something about making a diss track directed at Zedd and out of nowhere Matthew Koma said that he would feature.
I love 'Clarity' to this day. I met Foxes, who is one my favorite singers, she's amazing, and Zedd is baby, I really like his songs too. the one with lyrics, I'm not really into no lyric edm songs
50 y/o Vet here... Just now saw some youtube vids of your life, and HOUSE! Geesh! Great Job Man!..... I could only wish to be able to enjoy life like that. Wish I could just be your yard guy, in Villa # 13... lol

Humble? Have you seen his house?
Yeah, he’s more humble than the Chainsmokers. For sure XD
I never knew that beauty and a beat was made by him, I just freaked out!!
me too lol
Same lmao
Yeah he didn't even got a "featuring" lol
Lucille Henriquez Chovet Knew it immediately the first time I heard it. The drop part of the song already sounds so much like Zedd, especially his gritty bass style.
I didn't know that either
Spectrum was my jam. Brings back so many memories.
I know right... This song changed my life...
Yeah it always make me go.
Same with clarity. I remember telling people about that and spectrum and they were like "eww this sucks" 🙄
Same
*_Armin van Buuren_*_ remix_ 👍
Insane how many hits this guy has. All these are straight up bangers.
Literally
clarity is one of my most favorite
Beautiful now is my favourite

I freakin love that song
Clarity will always be his best track idc what anyone else says
AGRREEEDD!
true ngl
Alex Garcia Yeah, out of all of his other hits, it actually WON A GRAMMY!!!
U mean it will be Porter's best track
Yep with spectrum being second

Spectrum just fills me with nostalgia
Same 💕💕💕💕 that was 12th grade for me. Brought me to a different place than I was in real life.
It still one of my favourite and in my playlist😊
After seeing Matt's posts about Zedd never giving him credit - Zedd seems to mention him a lot in this video...
I had the same thought!
Yeah Man
I was shocked first, and then Zedd made an explanation
Both of them are just misunderstanding
Hope they can reunited
And Porter who produced mostly of the track didn't get any recognition..
@@andremiguel8985 I think it was more of Porter's decision to not let him mention in the track..
Who's Matt??
My favorite Electronica artist hands down!! Seeing him live is so surreal and amazing. What a mega-talented guy.
Yess I agree! I saw him live in July 2018... He waved back to me a few times!! I've been waiting for 3 years to see him, one of the best moments in my life for sure. When he played Spectrum I was screaming so bad...
I'm pretty sure Zedd is not Electronica, Electronica is like weird artsy stuff
@@spaceowl5957 Zedd used to make EDM. Now he makes more electronic pop tracks, I guess
KESHA!! Thank you Zedd for what you did for her. I will forever be grateful, she saved my life and you helped her get through the torture of not being allowed to release music. Thank you

Porter and Madeon are legends. I just saw Madeon in concert on his Good Faith Tour
Clarity was his best track of all time
his 2012 stuff was super good because they often worked together, maybe they’ll come together again for his new album
Literalllyyyyyy, I saw Madeon in September, Porter in October and nowwww I’m seeing Zedd at Avant Gardner. I’m definitely an old Zedd fan BUT I’m excited to relive the excitement and see his progression. SO EXCITED because I know what this man is capable of!

Simon Wolf i need it too 👌🏻 , addicted to those
@@ethanl886 yeah ! Just a minute before
@@sureshsamuel1722 ahah
If you want more deforestation due to palm oil production, why not...
I'm so happy that he got Foxes to sing on Clarity. Her voice is perfect for it and it introduced her to so many more fans
Stay The Night takes me to another place every single time I listen to it!
ZEDD is a freaking mastermind
Have you seen this guys house! Look it up
yup!!!
Yes!
Yep
House as music type or house as his mansion😅
Stiv His mansion, it’s worth more than $16,000,000!
just fyi english isn't his mother-tongue but he speaks it so fluently
Right, he is German
@@alexanderalex1608 correction: Russian, who grew up in Germany. Russian - German.
Zedd's songs are awesome! Every time I listen his songs, it feels like my moodbooster 💕
I honestly believe that the "Beauty And A Beat" music video would have been even cooler with Zedd in it as the DJ.
This interview kinda goes against Matthew Komas claims that Zedd never gives him any credit, he mentioned him a bunch in this interview.
Talk maybe but he should have paid him
Agree!
Yeah Because This Video was recorded after his claims ;)
Paul Sen no it wasn’t
im very confused as zedd has credited Matthew wherever possible, as far as I've seen
Clarity
Beautiful now
Stay the night
Happy now ❤
Wow, you are perfection!
How about Spectrum?
illusion
break free
and adddicted to a memory
is fun
too and your comment too.
I want you to know
I want you to know and Stay blew me away when I saw him live last week. Can not wait to see him again. Come to EDC Zedd!
One of the more obscure songs, Papercut, officially sealed me as a Troye Sivan fan back in 2015
Clarity, Stay the night, Stay, and The Middle were my top songs at 3 am. 😩😩 Zedd is a genius
Omg those are my fav songs!!!
@@zurdi33 good taste sis 😭😭😭
Where's "Happy Now", "Get Low", "Ignite" & "I Want You To Know"
Charles Justin Ayunon thank you! I was waiting all video for my cardio jam “Get Low”
Ignite is actually pretty good
Ignite was actualy made for The league of legends worlds 2016 i think
And because not everyone likes video games not a lot oh People know about it
Charles Justin Ayunon THANK YOU!!!
Get low sucked, imo. Sounds more like pop, rather than electronic.
Zedd songs are the only overplayed songs I never stop being in love with
I love a lot of those songs, but "Stay" is truly iconic for me. Stay brings back such memories. The first time I heard it was one of the best nights of my life. I don't think I'll ever be able to forget the song even if I wanted to.
Respect! This dude is one of the greatest producers and he is so humble about it
I heard clarity at a random place without even much clarity of the lyrics being sung and searched for it for almost six months to find it. Now it is one of the songs on my playlists for the longest time.
Spectrum is by far my favorite. Never gets old.

AVICII MADE SKY FULL OF STARS ????????? now i know why i love that song so much
There's a reason why you can hear a lot of Avicii signature sounds in A Sky Full Of Stars lol
Papercut should've been released as a single and it would top the chart
Yet Matthew koma says zedd never credited him. *literally a full interview of zedd praising Matthew and giving credit*
noticed the same thing, literally everything matthew said zedd didnt do (crediting him for the lyrics, even the pitching up of the vocals)
yeah now im even more confused, but zedd seems pretty chill but still don't know what to believe
It's one interview....
This happened AFTER matthew koma’s post
@@pablobonete no this video was filmed in 2018, but koma was complaining in 2019
I love this guy. He's awesome. Have seen him twice, loved it.
Really? Where? When?
I've seen him once, amazing experience :)
Once in Cologne in Germany and then on a Festival in Frankfurt, also in Germany. 😍
I’m dying to see him but he’s not planning to play in India 🇮🇳
Ram Dubey save money and go to EDC one year when he plays. You will not regret it
Spectrum is literally the song that turned me on to producing electronic music. It was a bit of a revelation. The chord progression in it is truly magical and Matthew's voice is amazing.
Zedd needs to return to his route, all the Dirty Bits Remix, Clarity, that was better days of Electronic Music.
Nur Sharmil Aqamar Safeei Did you know Porter Robinson collab in that track? That is one of the reasons why Zedd in 2012 was awesome.
@@diegoartazcoz2390 yup the elements of Porter is so clear, I do listen to Porter to

Beautiful Now is his best track and didn't even mention it!!
What about SHAVE IT?! His biggest outright banger bar none.
Right? This song put him on my radar!
Only true Zedd fans know Shave It. Not your average pop listener
That track changed my life! And the Intro at the end of Hourglass that goes into shave it up is insane!
👌👌👌
I love this banter u guys are having in the comments
Zedd is one of the most underrated, overlooked artists of all time.
As a Zedd fan, that's just not true
He’s literally one of the most mainstream djs/ producers out there, what are you talking about ?¿
"underrated" lmao bruh look up the definition of that word.
If you said this like a decade ago, it'd be accurate.
@@RockBandRS lmao
Aww no mention of "Find You" 😭 that one is my all time favorite. Stay the Night is second and Spectrum is 3rd. I love Find You so much that I plan on using that song in my wedding 💍💞
Loved his reaction to getting nominated for Grammy's 2019. He was blown away happy
Porter Robinson did back up vocals for clarity ❤️
He's more involved in more song than I realized
To this day Clarity is still one of my favourite songs of all times
My favorite one of his will always be "Stay the Night." The music is bopping and Hayley is just great on the track.
Zedd was the first person who brought me to EDM
Edit: I love how he has impacted
Spectrum and Done With Love will always always be my all time favorites eventhough they're not as iconic as Clarity or Stay.
he used to be electronic DJ 😉 and now he's an electro-pop DJ 😊
Boki Toloski producer
He was better as an electronic DJ.
Axs yeah people don’t know that he’s both of them
Honestly most electronic producers that were popular around the early 2010s make electro pop nowadays, it's not just Zedd
Zedd just isn’t the same 😔
he’s baby 🥺
One of the most iconic track is "I want you to know" with Selena Gomez!
ScarlettP Selena was his ex girlfriend
They probably didn’t want him to talk about his ex girlfriend
Marte TRUE!
what about" beautiful now" ?
ScarlettP yessssss they didnt talk about that one 🤦🏻♂️ how dare they
Clarity is one of my favorite Zedd songs, has been for years
Holy crap, this man has so many giant songs, I had no idea this guy was behind so many of them
I love all Zedd’s music it’s just such amazing feel good music that’s so well put together absolutely love Zedd!
love him
he makes good music

Papercut anyone? W/ troye sivan? Thats iconic.
papa pepe I love that song. And I love how it leads up to Bumble Bee.
favorite zedd song honestly
I was obsessed with spectrum for a long time, so much that I learned it on piano. Definitely one of the reasons I started making music
Beautiful Now is my favorite 128bpm song of all time!
And...didn't say it?! DANG!
"Happy Now" is one of my favorite songs.
And "Stay" before it.
And "Stay the Night" before...
*2:26** to **2:31** Beautiful Transition.*
I literally forgot he made all these bangers. no wonder he's rich. all his songs are hits
When is the 3rd album coming....
Zedd?
edit : ITS COMING OUT AUGUST 28TH 2024
I don't even want a third album, I'd be happy if he released the original masters on the clarity album
I love how humble he is. Really intelligent humble dude.
Spectrum is amazing . He’s a genius♥️
You should make another collab with matthew koma like if you agree
Not sure if they're on good terms anymore!
How and why ?

Zedd’s music always takes me back to 2012 when I was in 7th grade and dubstep was huge :/
Zedd's best & most underated songs is "Follow You Down" off his debut album.
I remember when the middle was released and it played in every shops and malls lol
