Dillon Francis is the human embodiment of what happens when you hand a hyperactive middle schooler a laptop, a can of Red Bull, and an encyclopedic knowledge of memes. Born in Los Angeles in 1987, Dillon burst onto the EDM scene by spearheading the moombahton genre—a slowed-down, Latin-influenced fusion of reggaeton and electro—because, apparently, regular dance music just wasn’t weird enough. He’s collaborated with everyone from Diplo to DJ Snake, but somehow still finds time to create alter egos like “DJ Hanzel,” a German deep house snob who insists on taking us “one deeper,” emotionally and sonically. His concerts feel less like DJ sets and more like absurdist raves, where the bass hits hard and the visuals may or may not include a sentient taco yelling at you.  Dillon’s song “Get Low,” with DJ Snake, became an era-defining track for electronic dance music, blending global sonic influences with an unforgettable drop that resonated across mainstream and underground scenes alike. The song charted internationally, went multi-platinum in several countries, and became a cultural staple—featured in films like Furious 7, commercials, and countless live DJ sets around the world. Beyond that success, Dillon Francis has proven himself as a versatile producer and artist, releasing critically acclaimed projects like Money Sucks, Friends Rule and Wut Wut, the latter showcasing his commitment to Latin music and bilingual collaborations. He’s worked with artists across genres— known not only as an EDM trailblazer but as a creative force continually pushing the boundaries of what electronic music can be.  Dillon has headlined major festivals like Coachella, EDC, and Ultra for a decade, released multiple albums, and somehow still finds time to troll the internet. Dillon Francis remains EDM’s court jester: lighthearted yet committed, continually inventing groundbreaking new sounds.
