Diplo talks moombahton, Dillon Francis, and musical influences (video interview)

We got to sit down with Diplo in San Francisco before one of his shows earlier in the month, and picked his brain on the music scene and life in general. The blonde half of Major Lazer talks about everything from the types of music he likes to mix to the places he visits in San Francisco. We don’t want to give everything away, but he also talks about his musical influences and his protegé of the moment, Dillon Francis. We won’t waste your time any longer with meaningless words on a screen when you can click the play button above and hear it straight from the DJ’s mouth. So click it. You know you want to.
