Francis has captivated audiences across the globe from EDC Vegas to Pacha Ibiza to Miami, with his recent B2B play with Mad Decent label boss Diplo during Miami Music Week.
Francis reflects on how the track came together saying, “When Hank first sent me the song, I was unsure about its remix potential as the vocals are quite minimal. However, I wanted to challenge my production capacity to reinvent something sounding brand new. I am very pleased with how the remix is sounding, and I can’t wait for it to be released the day before my debut Coachella performance in the Yuma tent (:”
“I thought Francis was the perfect match for this remix,” said Hank K regarding the track. “From the original melodic tech track to what it is now, I think it’s beautiful how he flipped it into the sunrise vibe and really took the track into a whole different place. I can’t wait to see it played by DJs everywhere,” he added.
