DJ Hanzel (Dillon Francis) takes you “One Deeper” with BBC Radio 1 mix

While some producers have made a name for themselves with their multiple aliases, American dance producer Dillon Francis has entertained us all with his various Instagram characters. From DJ Rich as Fuck to Treva, Francis’ comedy characters have been beloved by fans but none as much as deep-house party loving DJ Hanzel. Get to know the man who taught Dillon everything deep through these clips:

The ray-ban wearing DJ Hanzel seems to only grace us with his presence through Dillon Francis’ social media and shows until we were finally presented with a mix by the German deep house DJ. Dillon Francis has been working vigorously on his upcoming album so he was unable to provide a mix for Annie Nightingale‘s BBC Radio 1 show. Luckily for us, he recruited his best friend “who hates everything in the world except deep house” to take over the reigns. Unfortunately, the mix is only 30 minutes so I guess we will have to wait to hear the 49 minute slow-build another time… thanks a lot BBC! However, Hanzel managed to pack the deepest songs we’ve ever heard and made the mix free for download on Dillon’s soundcloud page. Make sure to pack plenty of deep v-neck shirts and scuba gear because you are about to go ‘von deeper’!
