Ziggy Alberts' 'Runaway' stands as one of his most successful tracks of his independent career, with over 117 million Spotify streams, 3× Platinum ARIA certification, and Gold status in Canada. Since its 2015 release on the Four Feet in the Forest EP, the track has consistently delivered 10+ million annual streams, maintained a 5.114 streams-per-listener rate, and secured long-term editorial playlist support across key territories including Australia, USA, Germany, and the UK. The song transformed Ziggy from a busking street performer into a globally touring artist who now sells out venues like London's Royal Albert Hall, all while maintaining complete independence.
Now, to mark its 10-year anniversary, renowned Brazilian producer Bruno Martini (2B+ career streams) reimagines 'Runaway' with his signature house sound on the Runaway Remix - bridging Ziggy’s loyal indie-folk audience with global electronic fans.
Quote from Ziggy on the release “I was in Brazil on tour, and the opportunity came to work with Bruno, and I couldn't wait. He sent me V1 and I just loved it. Runaway means the world to me. It's the song that has brought me around the world, and now, it can be discovered by many more peop le. I'm so excited for this song to be experienced and discovered by people in a totally different context of life, listening to EDM. I hope people just dance, dance , dance.”
Quote from Bruno on the release “Working with Ziggy was incredible. I had always admired his work, and when he came to Brazil recently for a show, we finally had the chance to speak. That’s when he invited me to give Runaway, now celebrating its 10th anniversary, a new vibe. I immediately said yes. I brought a bit of my own world, the Bruno Martini sound, and was really happy with the result. Ziggy told me he loved it too, which made this c ollaboration even more special”
