Dillion Francis Makes Perhaps the Most Compelling Case for Moombahton Yet

For those of you not aware, two days ago during what is typically MistaJam’s radio show on BBC Radio 1, Flux Pavilion and Doctor P did what they’re calling a “Takeover” during which they played a two hour set of their favorite dubstep tracks of the moment.  OK, OK, I know what you’re thinking… WHOOP-DE-FUCKING-DO.  I mean, don’t get me wrong, these guys are kings, but without even listening to the mix you probably already have a good idea of what you’d likely hear.  The interesting part of all this, however, is that Moombahton Master and personal favorite Dillon Francis was granted 25 minutes of those two hours during which he put together a 25 minute mini-mix of hard-hitting moombahton.  Now, this isn’t your grandma’s moombahton (because of course your grandma LOVED moombahton in her day).  Most of this is along the lines of the new wave of dub-electro-moom-bah-step a la Skrillex’s newest moombahton tracks and the hyphier stuff Mr. Francis has been putting out lately, including his newest track, featured in the mix, “IDGAFOS”.  If this doesn’t sell you on the current and future potential of moombahton, I don’t know what will.  Tracklist after the jump.
