As said "Galantis has truly been a phenomenon in dance music. With a synergy yet unrivaled by any Dance artist, the duo's inspirational sound and riveting on-stage performance will continue to resonate with fans worldwide".

It's a Swedish electric dance music production.

The story of Galantis started back in 2009 where they worked as Bloodyshy, Karlsso's songwriting collaborations, which included Madonna, Katy Perry and Britney spears. Britney earned him a grammy award with her song Toxic.

Galantis had international success with their single "Runaway" also known as U&I, which debuted on October 5, 2014. The song is the second single from their album Pharmacy. The song went to the top of Spotify's Global and US Viral charts and became a top 10 Spotify track in the Netherlands, Belgium and Finland.

Runaway from our point of view is about an unusual and unexplained feeling someone is feeling so they're trying to get away from the feeling as it unexplained and not a normal way to feel. The song is showing that she realises she is better when shes with that one person but it's easier if she just runs away from it all.

Semiotics Theory by Barthes

The Theory Semiotic theory is the study of signs and symbols by a man named Roland Barthes. He researched how an audience views and interprets a piece of media. He believed that audiences looked for signs to help them understand the narrative of the media being presented. The signs are based on expectations that the audiences had due to how society believe in myths and old tales. The signs are a connotation, so a word, an image, a sound etc. Denotation is what it means literally, so for example, the word cat signifies an animal that meows or when marketing a business may use a logo with the name featured. Over time though the symbol within the logo will be the only thing that is needed as the symbol itself is recognisable and has more meaning. An example of where this has been done is for Nike. There is the logo, so the Nike tick, with the word Nike or there is the logo tick with the slogan 'Just do it'. However, where the brand has become more recognisable, Nike are...
