SINGER JUSTIN LANNING RELEASES HIS POPULAR REMIX SINGLE
‘TAKE MY BREATH AWAY’
Legendary Circuit DJ and Record Producer Tony Moran Remixes Justin Lanning Single
Los Angeles, CA (June 6, 2008) - Singer songwriter Justin Lanning is about to explode in the dance music genre with his new remix cd based on his hit single Take My Breath Away off his popular pop rock album Behind These Eyes. Justin Lanning’s single Take My Breath Away incorporates all the necessary elements needed to create a successful dance remix in today’s fickle music community. By fusing Justin Lanning’s melodic and hypnotically tempered voice with a driving up-tempo dance beat, Take My Breath Away will surely have a major presence in the dance music community and is already being played in dance clubs in New York, Los Angeles, Miami, Washington D.C., Boston, San Francisco and Chicago. With support from major DJs throughout the United States and play on dance radio, Take My Breath Away is expected to quickly ascend to the top on such charts as Billboard Magazine’s Hot Club Play Dance Chart.
Sought after music producer and DJ extraordinaire, Tony Moran leads the remixing pack on Justin Lanning’s new cd Take My Breath Away with a nine minute pulsating club edit, a four minute popular radio edit and another nine minute instrumental for those dance music fans who truly appreciate the heart and soul of dance music. Tony Moran’s impressive biography includes working with music icons Gloria Estefan, Celine Dion, Janet Jackson, Deborah Cox, Erin Hamilton, Cher and Whitney Houston. Tony Moran is a major gay icon and consistently plays to crowds of 10,000 at circuit parties and annual gay pride events in New York, Los Angeles, Palm Springs, London, Sydney and Rio de Janiero. Adding to the Take My Breath Away remix cd are Jeff Jonas (a.k.a. DJ Escape) and DJ Boris. DJ Boris got his start in New York City playing along side the brilliance of Junior Vasquez at New York City’s Palladium and Sound Factory dance clubs. Recently, Dj Escape is known for his widely popular dance party volume series Party Time in conjunction with Effin Music. He has also collaborated with DJ giants Eric Morillo, Danny Tenaglia and Victor Calderone and has remixed for Christine W., John Melloncamp and Jessica Simpson. DJ Boris’ pumping-hard, driving sound has become synonymous with "the New York sound," often imitated in cities around the world.
The energetic, uplifting music that DJ Boris masterfully crafts from the DJ booth has frequently caught the attention of major record labels. Boris has remixed for Janet Jackson's All I Want and Thalia's I'm In Love. Epic Records hired DJ Boris to remix Anastacia's Left Outside Alone and Atlantic Records contracted Boris to remix Jewel's Stand and Columbia Records employed Boris remix Pink's Real Good Feel Good.
Rounding out the top talent collaborator on Justin Lanning’s Take My Breath Away is dance music diva herself Erin Hamilton (daughter of Carol Burnett) who recorded supporting and back-up vocals for the Justin Lanning project. Erin Hamilton recently hit the top spot herself at number one on Billboard Magazine’s Dance Chart for her remake of her dance classic The Flame 2008 which was also remixed and re-produced by Tony Moran. Justin Lanning, Tony Moran and Erin Hamilton all met in Los Angeles to record their perspective parts on Justin Lanning’s Take My Breath Away and look forward to performing the hot single together over the summer.
Now 21 years of age, Justin Lanning himself has been involved with music professionally since the age of 12. He is an exceedingly accomplished songwriter, music producer, businessman and instrumentalist who plays keyboard, guitar, bass, and drums as well. Justin formed a hard-rock band called Kulprit in his mid teens and traveled in the UK on tour. Justin soon went the solo route reinventing himself as a pop-rock singer/songwriter and produced Behind These Eyes his first pop rock album which Justin retained control of all his masters and publishing. On Behind These Eyes Justin Lanning co-produced two tracks along with music veteran Jeff Bova (Billy Joel, Joe Crocker, Michael Jackson) and legendary music producer Steven Miller (Dave Matthews Band, Pink, Mandy Moore). Justin’s pop rock sensibilities are inspired by Lanning’s draw to the lyrical story telling of Bryan Adams and Billy Joel, the soulful searching of James Blunt, the up-tempo pace of Blink-182 and the classic rhythmic sounds of the Beatles and the Beach Boys. Through Justin’s instinctual entrepreneurial marketing skills and his inherent drive Justin Lanning has made an indelible mark on young women and pop rock fans alike. Justin has been seen on billboard advertisements throughout Los Angeles and currently has over 100,000 friends on his overwhelmingly popular www.myspace.com page. His Myspace page pulls in thousands of friends as they log-in into to listen to Justin’s Behind These Eyes songs but also to watch his eye catching webisodes from his own Justin’s World which is a reality show in its own following the ins and outs of Justin day to day living. Justin’s natural draw and ease on his web cast can be attributed to his years performing live on stage as a soloist and lead band member but also as an actor. Justin has appeared in over twenty commercials and television shows including CSI: Las Vegas and recently won MTV’s Score with Ryan Cabrera.
Justin Lanning is thrilled to be part of the dance music community and feels lucky to have legendary song producers Tony Moran, DJ Escape, DJ Boris behind his project.
