				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><center><a href="http://wanticketsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Dillon.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-64016" alt="Dillon" src="http://wanticketsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Dillon.jpg" width="500" height="500" /></a></center><a href="http://wantickets.com/Artists/1672/DILLON-FRANCIS/" target="_blank"></p>
<p>Dillon Francis</a> wins my vote for best cover art of the year. I was sold on &#8220;Messages&#8221; before I even listened to the preview, but boy am I happy I pressed play. The song is all about decoding the messages you are getting from that person eyeing you up from across the dance floor, though it doesn&#8217;t take a genius to realize that Dillon Francis is sending the message to shake your booty when the song drops. It is a large, rowdy moombathon drop that Francis has proven to be a master of. The preview cuts off just after the drop, ending with an message telling listeners they won&#8217;t have to wait very long to hear the rest of the song, as it will be released on Mad Decent March 26th.</p>
<p>Not long after the release Dillon Francis will be in Toronto. He will be performing at <a href="http://wantickets.com/Venues/5012/THE-HOXTON/" target="_blank">The Hoxton</a> March 28th. Tickets for what will surely be a crazy night are available <a href="http://wantickets.com/Events/122437/DILLON-FRANCIS-The-Hoxton/?trackingcode=socialmedia" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>

 <br />
Toronto based duo <a href="http://wantickets.com/Artists/1911/DZEKO-TORRES/" target="_blank">Dzeko &amp; Torres</a> have been lighting up the EDM world with amazing remixes and exclusive originals pouring out left and right as they get ready to release their first EP, <em><a href="https://soundcloud.com/dzekoandtorres/sets/dzeko-torres-hey-ep-dim-mak" target="_blank">HEY!</a>, </em>out on <a href="http://www.dimmak.com/" target="_blank">Dim Mak</a> Records today! We got a chance to get to know the guys and hear about what they&#8217;ve been up to and what they&#8217;ve got in store for us in the coming year. Check out our exclusive interview below!</p>
<p>***</p>
<p><strong>Hey guys, thanks for taking the time to answer some questions for us! We&#8217;ve been following your releases for a little while now, most recently got to listen to your new track <a href="http://wanticketsblog.com/2012/12/10/dzeko-torres-vs-crossways-togi/" target="_blank">Togi</a>, which we’re totally loving. But for our fans who may not know you yet, give us a quick introduction to you guys and your sound.</strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #00ccff;">Dzeko: Dzeko &amp; Torres are Julian Dzeko &amp; Luis Torres, two best friends who love music.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">Torres: What we play and produce is a combination of Big Room electro and progressive house. But apart from what we play and produce, we are MASSIVE music fans. We love tech, deep house, indie rock, and everything in between.</span>  <br />
<center><img alt="stippled-photo" src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/assets.stippleit.com/photos/9807850/original/dzeko___torres.jpg?1355182076" width="500" data-stipple-photo-id="9807850" /><script type="text/javascript" src="https://stipple.com/embed/9807850.js"></script></center><strong><br />
You’re coming out of Toronto, where the EDM scene is absolutely blowing up, seriously, are they just breeding awesome DJs out there? How has the scene there influenced you, and how do you guys strive to stand out and make your own mark?</strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #00ccff;">Dzeko: The EDM scene in Toronto has always been massive. Because it&#8217;s so strong and so many friends of ours are in the industry it&#8217;s been amazing growing up and being able to see the biggest DJ&#8217;s from around the world playing amazing shows in Toronto, that&#8217;s definitely been a huge inspiration.<br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;">Torres: Yeah it&#8217;s amazing that people like <a href="http://wantickets.com/Artists/1364/ART-DEPARTMENT/" target="_blank">Art Department</a>, <a href="http://wantickets.com/Artists/174/DEADMAU5/" target="_blank">Deadmau5</a>, <a href="http://wantickets.com/Artists/1874/AZARI-III/" target="_blank">Azari&amp;III</a>, <a href="http://wantickets.com/Artists/1099/ZEDS-DEAD/" target="_blank">Zeds Dead</a>, <a href="http://wantickets.com/Artists/512/MSTRKRFT/" target="_blank">MSTRKRFT</a>, <a href="http://wantickets.com/Artists/1492/ADAM-K/" target="_blank">Adam K</a> and so many more all came from this city. I think it says a lot about the music fans here and how much electronic music is part of Toronto&#8217;s culture. The music is so eclectic and there are many different clubs and parties that all promote different styles of music and I think that&#8217;s definitely been inspirational having access to that. We just want to make great music that we love and that other people will love too.</span></p>
<p><strong>Your first EP, <a href="https://soundcloud.com/dzekoandtorres/sets/dzeko-torres-hey-ep-dim-mak" target="_blank">&#8220;<em>HEY&#8221;</em></a> is out today on <a href="http://www.dimmak.com/" target="_blank">Dim Mak</a> and it’s been getting huge support from big names like <a href="http://wantickets.com/Artists/1795/DENIZ-KOYU/" target="_blank">Deniz Koyu</a>, <a href="http://wantickets.com/Artists/2294/NARI-MILANI/" target="_blank">Nari &amp; Milani</a> and <a href="http://wantickets.com/Artists/677/STEVE-AOKI/" target="_blank">Steve Aoki</a>. Tell us a little about it. What was it like going into the studio and putting it together?</strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #00ccff;">Dzeko: The HEY ep is 3 tracks, &#8220;Hey&#8221;, &#8220;check this out&#8221;, and &#8220;Buppy&#8221;. It&#8217;s a big room electro/house EP. Each of the tracks were actually made months apart from each other and it wasn&#8217;t until <a href="http://wantickets.com/Artists/1538/AUTOEROTIQUE/" target="_blank">Autoerotique</a> &amp; Steve Aoki heard them that we decided to put them together for the EP.<br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;">Torres: Yeah originally Aoki wanted to release &#8220;HEY&#8221;, and then we sent him &#8220;check this out&#8221; and he asked if we could turn it into an EP. We had just finished &#8220;Buppy&#8221; at the time and wanted to round out the EP with a third track and we though it fit perfectly so we decided to throw it on as well. The whole thing happened very organically and we couldn&#8217;t be happier that it&#8217;s coming out on Dim Mak!</span></p>

<p><strong>What are some of your musical influences?</strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">Torres: I like everything from indie rock, to tech/deep house, big vocal ballads to classical. I&#8217;m really just a massive music fan.</span></p>

</span><br />
<strong>What are some of your favorite tracks right now?</strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;">Torres: We have a bootleg we did for our live sets called &#8220;can&#8217;t stop the pressure spectrum&#8221; that we love playing out right now, it really goes off.</span></p>

<p><strong>Have any interesting pre-gig rituals? Post-gig?</strong></p>

Post gig if we&#8217;re playing in Toronto the regular late night must hit is <a href="http://www.yelp.com/biz/canton-chilli-restaurant-toronto" target="_blank">Canton Chile</a> for some spicy beef and &#8220;cold tea,&#8221; haha.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #00ccff;">Dzeko: Haha yeah for sure! Canton Chile man, pure heart burn, haha.</span></p>
<p><strong>As we wrap up 2012, what have been some of your most memorable moments? Have you guys found yourselves star-struck by some of the places you&#8217;ve played or people you&#8217;ve worked with?</strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #00ccff;">Dzeko: 2012 was an amazing year. Definitely all the support we&#8217;ve been getting from guys like Tiesto, Steve Aoki, <a href="http://wantickets.com/Artists/1109/HARDWELL/" target="_blank">Hardwell</a>, Deniz Koyu, <a href="http://wantickets.com/Artists/554/PAUL-OAKENFOLD/" target="_blank">Paul Oakenfold</a>, <a href="http://wantickets.com/Artists/168/DAVID-GUETTA/" target="_blank">David Guetta</a> has been a dream come true. Hearing your music for the first time on the radio shows and in sets by the guys you&#8217;ve looked up to for years is definitely memorable.<br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff0000;">Torres: Yeah we&#8217;ve played a lot of great shows this year also. London Homecoming tent party with <a href="http://wantickets.com/Artists/1456/BINGO-PLAYERS/" target="_blank">Bingo Players</a> was definitely memorable. Probably our favourite show to date, London knows how to party!</span></p>
