The music composer and singer from New
York City known as Tanya Dartson has released her latest EDM single,
“Run for Your Life.” The track has been proudly published
independent of the corporate music industry at over 700 digital music
stores online worldwide. Upbeat, vivacious and poised for play at
nightclubs around the globe, “Run for Your Life” proves that
Tanya Dartson can produce electrifying pop with the best of them.
A composer with experience in several
music genres, Tanya Dartson cites as main artistic influences Axwell,
Zedd, David Guetta, Alesso, Calvin Harris, Tiesto, Hardwell, Martin
Garrix, and Steve Angello, but also composers of film scores such as
Thomas Bergersen and Hans Zimmer. Elements of these show through in
her own repertoire.
Asked to comment on the themes of her
new single, Dartson writes, “'Run for Your Life' speaks about
stripping inhibitions, grabbing the moment and seizing your freedom.
Life is short and we all owe it to ourselves to run for our lives and
pursue our dreams by all means possible!”
Like all Dartson's prominent hits, “Run
for Your Life” has inspirational themes. It's one she's especially
proud of, as “Run for Your Life” is not just her first pop/dance
single, but also the first on which she appears as both co-producer
and lead vocalist.
“It has such a positive and uplifting
message,” she writes, “and it’s one of those catchy tracks that
you can dance to in the nightclub, listen to in the gym or nod your
head to on your way to work.”
Until her “Run for Your Life” EDM
hit, Dartson was best recognized for her 2010 “Morningside Park”
piano composition, which received an Honorable Mention Citation Award
from the International Music Prize for Excellence in Composition, as
well as for her “Escape from Planet Earth” for symphony
orchestras.
“Escape from Planet Earth” was
selected by the International Composition Competition organized by
the Ravel Association of Bergamo, Italy, as one of the 15 best
symphony orchestra pieces from thousands of international submissions
in 2015. Dartson was one of the youngest composers to reach the final
round and the only female composer in the Symphony Orchestra category
to be selected.
Since that time, Tanya Dartson's music
has appeared on NYC's News 12, Brooklyn TV channel, in UCAN!
Magazine, on iHeart Radio, on Canada’s FM 98.5 CKWR, on WFCF,
Flagler College Radio, on 88.5 FM, Radio Horizon, on 93.9 FM in South
Africa, and elsewhere.
“My ultimate dream is to have 'Run
for Your Life' heard and shared by millions of people all over the
world,” writes Dartson.
An official music video for the track
is expected to drop in August 2016. A teaser for the video is
