Dillon Francis Drops Heavy and Emotional New Single With Daya ‘What It Feels Like’

Superstar producer and social media maven Dillon Francis is back with his first track of 2026. Featuring Grammy-winning pop icon Daya, ‘What It Feels Like’ is a pulsating bass track that will tug at your heart and break your neck. The song also marks a first-of-its-kind partnership between independent label innovators Monstercat and broke Records. Dillon fittingly had this to say: “It’s strange that I’m expected to summarize a song in a quote so you’ll listen to it, when listening to it would solve that problem. The song is ‘What It Feels Like’ with Daya. You can stop reading now.” What separates this from other dance tracks is how the arrangement perfectly supports the emotional arc of the vocals. The production doesn’t overpower but rather lifts. It lets Daya’s performance breathe and resonate, especially during the more vulnerable sections. The drops are gritty, and I love the contrast between them. This track shows Dillon’s sound at its finest, from the trap-heavy first drop to the house-focused second drop. Daya’s whisper vocals take the track to a new, unexpected level. The new music kicks off a massive year for Dillon, who recently announced a highly anticipated Dillstradamus co-headline tour with trap pioneer Flosstradamus starting this April. Following explosive festival and headline sets across the globe in 2025, the tour will see stops at New York’s Terminal 5, Chicago’s Radius, Los Angeles’ Hollywood Palladium, San Francisco’s Bill Graham Civic Auditorium, and more.
