Fast becoming the bestest eccentric rude-boy of dance music and winning our eardrums over with perfectly manipulated beats-diggity – Stoney Roads nabbed an interview with the talented Mr. Francis from the steaming Adelaide leg of the Big Day Out tour.
After agreeing to a backstage bum bump with Stoney writer Izzy Combs (‘Alright, we’ll shake our butts. I’m ready!), Dillon talked candidly about touring, collaborations, genres and musical intentions, all with the trademark cheekiness we’ve come to know and lurrrve from our queasa-Dillon.
Here are a few nuggets of wisdom from the man of many faces himself;
Getting existential on us:
‘I don’t look to the crowd that much. I mean I do but I don’t look for anything, because I don’t really wanna see anything, I just kind of look into the beyond…’
On his dream collaboration and happy music:
‘It would be Washed Out. I just really like his stuff a lot, all of it’s like, super happy summer music, and I love summer time. Anything that’s just super happy music I wanna work with.’
On his creative contribution to music videos:
‘Like with the ‘Bootleg Fireworks’ video I remember calling my manager and saying ‘my head, on different peoples bodies, jumping around, pogoing’ – take it away!’
And his next antic up for sale via the inter webs?
‘I’ll get fake tits for $2million dollars. (At the discretion of the purchaser – if you were wondering. Jugs Francis for president!)’
Just four of the genius musings from Kitten Francis. To read more about cheeky tour times, being referred to as ‘sensitive EDM’ and all of the envied musical bromances – check out the full interview here.
