RECESS x bassic present Dillon Francis & Cashmere Cat

#RecessCity #bassicsg Having already made a name for himself, Dillon Francis is no doubt a master in production with his groundbreaking remixes and cutting edge videos. The artist/producer/remixer/DJ released his Columbia Records/Mad Decent debut in 2014. Money Sucks, Friends Rule arrived nearly a year ago as the capstone to an innovative career that has never been content to straddle the status quo. Initially recognized for helping to bring the tribal dance movement Moombahton to the forefront, he’s scattered the dance music landscape with numerous influential EPs throughout his career. Known for assembling phenomenal collaborations and partnerships throughout his career, Dillon has always been about charting the unconventional course to success. Uploading bootleg edits of Jeremih and 2 Chainz, and doing an official remix for Lana Del Rey, Cashmere Cat quickly gained thousands of cat-loving listeners online and support from DJ ́s like Diplo, A-Trak and Hudson Mohawke to name a few. The cat ́s take on seductive R&B, futuristic hip-hop and bass music also caught the attention of Paris Social Club residents Pelican Fly Records, who released his debut EP “Mirror Maru” in October 2012. Behind the razor-sharp-but-soft-and-furry paws of Cashmere Cat hides Magnus August Høiberg. The 25-year old Oslo-based producer used to lurk behind the scenes of disco and house-music, previously working with labels like Kitsuné, True Panther and Ninja Tune. As Cashmere Cat, a project that is little over a year old, he embraces his true love – gritty R&B and slow jamz.
