ABOUT THE ALAN WALKER SPECTRE COPYRIGHT DISPUTE

alan a walkerThe ongoing discussion about the copyright status of the song “Spectre” by electronic music artist Alan Walker is known as the “Alan Walker Spectre Copyright Controversy.” The 2015 song has been the focus of several copyright disputes, with some claiming that it violates the rights of other songs and others maintaining that it is an original work. The situation has been made more difficult by the song’s inclusion in several unlicensed remixes and covers, which has raised questions about the song’s copyright protection.

The answer to this issue is ambiguous since it relies on several variables, including the particular song in question and the nation in which it was written. However, in general, the majority of music is copyrighted and hence would not be deemed to be free to use without the copyright holder’s consent.
