As Dillon Francis‘ annual IDGAFOS festival kicked off over the weekend, the EDM blogosphere lit up in a frenzy as word spread about his new collaborations with Swedish producer Alesso and NGHTMRE, which were premiered on the first night of the event. Now, fans have something new to sink their teeth into, as more footage from the festival hit the internet this week and gave listeners a glimpse of Francis’ edit of Skrillex’s acclaimed “Red Lips” remix.
The video shows Francis dropping the already well known remix of GTA’s “Red Lips” in his set, playing out the familiar bass heavy rendition that Skrillex provided in his version. But towards the end of the video, Francis flips the script, delving into a moombahton influenced take on “Red Lips” dominated by rapid fire, chopped up bass samples and clanky mid-tempo beats.
It’s unknown at this point when or if Dillon Francis’ take on “Red Lips” will see an official release, but if the video is any indication, it’s something we’ll be looking forward to.
