With a stream of world-class remixes and releases, Dillon has caught the attention of some of the top players in club land, including Steve Aoki, Diplo, Will I. Am, Drop The Lime, Sinden, and Tittsworth, to name some.

In less than a year his blistering productions have been heavily supported by Major Lazer, who opened their show with “Westside!,” a Dutch House-flavored monster that was consistently rinsed by top djs on both sides of the pond, including Sinden and Steve Aoki.

The tune is finally seeing a proper release on Diplo’s Mad Decent label, where Dillon will be releasing his “Masta Blasta” EP as well in the near future. From his first dubstep release on Play Me Records, the heavy “Take Me High” peaked at No. 13 on the Beatport dubstep chart and was played in full by Rusko in every one of his sets for his current OMG tour.

In the coming months, Dillon will have releases on Mad Decent, Dim Mak, Top Billin’, as well as Plant Music, where he will be releasing his next club EP. At ease behind the turntables and in the studio, in the electro world and in dubstep, Dillon is what you would call an open-format electronic DJ who sees no delineation between making music and playing it.

He has gotten huge support from the most important dance music blogs (Dim Mak, Mad Decent, Discobelle, Gotta Dance Dirty) ever since releasing his first bootlegs last year, and 2011 promises to be Dillon’s breakout year.

Anywhere
Dillon Francis Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're like a part of me that only I can see
You're even with me when I'm all alone
The people stop and stare, they say that no one's there
Maybe we're better when we're on our own

'Cause they don't know you like I know you, I know they don't
No, they don't
And they won't love you like I love you, I know they won't

No, they won't

I'll take you anywhere I go, anywhere
I'll take you anywhere I go, anywhere
I'll take you anywhere I go, anywhere
I'll take you anywhere I go, anywhere

You take me to a place, I know I have to face
You show me things that I have never seen
They don't believe in us, in you I have to trust
You make me someone I would not have been

'Cause they don't know you like I know you, I know they don't
No, they don't
And they won't love you like I love you, I know they won't
No, they won't

I'll take you anywhere I go, anywhere
I'll take you anywhere I go, anywhere
I'll take you anywhere I go, anywhere
I'll take you anywhere I go, anywhere

I'll take you anywhere I go, anywhere
I'll take you anywhere I go, anywhere
I'll take you anywhere I go, anywhere
I'll take you anywhere I go, anywhere

I will take you anywhere
I will take you

I will take you anywhere
I will take you

Line by Line Meaning

You're like a part of me that only I can see
You represent a connection between me and myself that can only be felt, not seen by others

You're even with me when I'm all alone
Your presence is so strong that it feels like you're beside me even in my solitary moments

The people stop and stare, they say that no one's there
Others who don't know the depth of our emotional bond assume that I'm alone without realizing your unseen influence on me

Maybe we're better when we're on our own
Perhaps it's better to be alone rather than dealing with the world's interference in our bond

'Cause they don't know you like I know you, I know they don't
Others cannot possibly understand you at the level I do

And they won't love you like I love you, I know they won't
No one can love you in the way I love you, it's a unique connection only I have

I'll take you anywhere I go, anywhere
I'll take you with me everywhere I go, symbolizing the strength of our bond

You take me to a place, I know I have to face
You challenge me and take me out my comfort zone, to places I wouldn't normally go alone

You show me things that I have never seen
You give me new perspectives and show me things I wouldn't have discovered alone

They don't believe in us, in you I have to trust
Others may not support or understand our bond, but it's important for me to trust in you and our connection regardless

You make me someone I would not have been
You help me become a better version of myself, a person that I wouldn't have grown into alone

I will take you anywhere
I'm making a commitment to always take you with me, wherever life takes us

I will take you
My bond and connection to you is unbreakable, I will always choose you

I will take you anywhere
No matter where life takes us, I will make sure you are always by my side

I will take you
My promise to always cherish and prioritize our bond
