Following the versions of the great song “Run” by Donna Summer that were released for Tomorrowland, Lollapalooza, and Ibiza, Toby Gad has teamed up with the famous German producer and DJ Mousse T. to create “Run (Disco),” an upbeat and happy song. 

If Donna Summer were to make a new song today, “Run (Disco)” would be just like that. It connects well with her famous style that made her a superstar long ago, and Mousse T. has done a great job honoring that. The song has a joyful vibe from the 70s that takes listeners back in time, while still being fun to listen to now. The exciting funk and bright disco sounds created by Mousse T. help make the perfect party mood, and you can still feel the spirit of Donna Summer in it.

Mousse T. has been in the music scene for over thirty years and is one of those special artists you don’t see very often. He has worked with both popular and underground music, collaborating with people like Quincy Jones, Michael Jackson, and Byron Stingily, among others. His unique style is recognizable across house, disco, funk, and more, echoing in places like Hï Ibiza, Rex Club, and Pacha. 

Toby Gad, who has won the ASCAP Songwriter of the Year award twice and the Grammy Awards three times, has written songs for major stars like Beyoncé, John Legend, Madonna, and Fergie, and has achieved over 19 billion streams. Donna Summer, known as the “Queen of Disco,” remains one of the most important voices in music history. With hit songs like “I Feel Love,” “Hot Stuff,” and “Last Dance,” she has won five Grammy Awards, six American Music Awards, and has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, leaving a lasting legacy that continues to motivate others. 

With great respect for the disco queen, Mousse T.’s version of “Run” by Donna Summer and Toby Gad is now available on streaming services.
