January 26, 2024—Today, superstar producer, songwriter and DJ Dillon Francis unveils Pero Like, a new collaborative EP with Miami electronic duo Good Times Ahead, via Mad Decent—listen here. The new EP features their previously released collaboration “LA On Acid,” which appears on Dillon’s new album This Mixtape Is Fire TOO out now, and further collaborations with Valentino KhanDixson WazDJ AaarZairah and Fatman Scoop.
“This one’s for all the kids that keep telling us our songs suck and we need to make more moombahton,” say Dillon and Good Times Ahead. “Now you can tell us these moombahton songs suck and we need to go back to making other songs and the cycle can continue forever and no one will ever be happy.”
The long-awaited sequel to 2015’s This Mixtape Is Fire, This Mixtape is Fire TOO features singles “Rainy” with REI AMI, “On a Trip” with Marten Hørger, “I’m My Only Friend” with Arden Jones, “buttons! with Knock2, “Free” with Alesso and Clementine Douglas, “Pretty People” featuring INJI, “Don’t Let Me Let Go” with Illenium and EVAN GIIA—which went #1 at U.S. Dance Radio—and “Goodies.”
Following album release, Dillon played a series of consecutive L.A. takeover shows celebrating different eras of his career, including a DJ Hanzel set at The Roxy, a rare Moombahton set at The Mayan—where he and Good Times Ahead played most of the new EP—and a marquee Dillon Francis and Friends show at The Shrine.
Dillon Francis has been making waves in dance music and beyond for more than a decade, bursting on to the scene in the early 2010s with a series of underground hits. He’s released a number of widely acclaimed full-length projects, including the 2014 major label debut Money Sucks, Friends Rule, 2015’s This Mixtape Is Fire, 2018’s WUT WUT—a Spanish-language LP featuring some of the biggest names in Latin music, the 2019 mixtape Magic Is Real and Happy Machine in 2021. Dillon continues to tour the world over and, beyond music, has starred in the Funny Or Die series “Like and Subscribe” and Viceland’s “What Would Diplo Do?” with additional projects in development.
