Born in Los Angeles, Dillon Francis first broke through in the early 2010s as one of the pioneers of moombahton, a genre that fused Dutch house with reggaeton rhythms. After releases on influential labels like Mad Decent, OWSLA, and Fool’s Gold, he quickly evolved into one of electronic music’s biggest crossover stars, effortlessly bouncing between trap, house, Latin music, electro, and pop collaborations.
Beyond his music, Dillon has built a reputation as one of dance music’s funniest personalities. His over-the-top online presence, alter ego DJ Hanzel, and chaotic festival sets have earned him a massive fanbase, while collaborations with DJ Snake, Kygo, Martin Garrix, Illenium, Valentino Khan, and Major Lazer have cemented his place as one of EDM’s most versatile artists. Whether he’s headlining EDC, Tomorrowland, or a club show, you can expect heavy drops, nonstop energy, and plenty of laughs.
