Dillon Francis and BabyJake’s hot streak continues with the ‘Risky Business’ meets ‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’ music video for their latest collaboration “Touch”
Waking up for yet another day home alone, the “Touch” video cuts between Dillon and BabyJake as morning routines, daily chores and more erupt into untethered solo dance parties and a longing bromance as undeniable as the pair’s musical chemistry, with nods to ‘80s cinema classics on full display.
Platinum-selling producer Dillon Francis and breakthrough pop singer/songwriter BabyJake first joined forces for the collaborative pop earworm “You Do You” in early April, which Billboard heralded as “one of [Dillon Francis’s] best tracks to date,” quickly following up with the addictive and velvety “Touch,” again seeing Dillon Francis at the top of his next-gen pop production game and BabyJake's vocals and melodies as smooth and catchy as ever. “Going into the studio for ‘Touch’ I was listening to a lot of Majid Jordan’s self-titled project and really just wanted to make a song that people could dance to,” BabyJake said upon the song’s release.
The “Touch” music video arrives ahead of Dillon Francis‘s freshly-announced IDGAFOS Weekend — a 3-day live stream music special taking place this Memorial Day weekend May 23, 24 &25 streaming live via Dillon’s YouTube, Twitch, Facebook, Twitter, and VK, featuring a genre-spanning lineup of over 20 artists including Dillon Francis, Diplo, Sofi Tukker, Flosstradamus, Aluna (Aluna Francis of AlunaGeorge), Party Favor, YAWNS of GBC, Valentino Khan, Phantoms, Dillon’s piñata friend Gerald, a vinyl-only disco set by Chrome Sparks, painting with actorBilly Zane (with a vinyl set by Part-Time Punks ft.

Dillon Francis continues riding high on the success of his latest project Magic Is Real [IDGAFOS/Mad Decent] which capped off a monumental 2019 for the Platinum-selling DJ and producer. Republic Records artist BabyJake is the latest artist to acquire buzz out of southwest Florida. His debut single “Cigarettes on Patios” hit the #2 position on Spotify’s viral charts in June, and since then he’s amassed over 25M streams across his first 3 releases. In November 2019, BabyJake was named 1 of Vevo’s 20 “Artists to Watch” for 2020.
