Young Franco is an up-and-coming DJ and producer from down under. He has played clubs and festivals around Australia, but he's ready to takeover the world with his vibrant sound. His latest single, "Otherside," might just be the song to kickstart his career in the states. The track features sultry vocals from Reva DeVito and chill beats in collaboration with Golden Vessel. "Otherside" is a chill track that promises listeners will better themselves by letting their guards down.

   

The producer recently flew to Los Angeles and Mexico for writing sessions, and he documented his travels through photos of historical landmarks, colorful culture and intimate memories. Here are some exclusive pictures that Young Franco captured during his trip.

This was the show at Malaquita Rooftop hosted by Trick or Treat Music. It was the same day as Day of the Dead. I met heaps of lovely people there. A special thank you to Brito and Kathya for introducing me to the best food I've ever had.

This was one of the stalls at a market, so much colour. I bought a few skulls to take home.

I flew back to LA and took a walk with a friend (Kilter) in Echo Park. It’s one of my favorite places in LA.

Met up with Reva Devito in LA for the first time ever. Everything we’ve done so far has been over the phone so it was so cool to finally meet. We took photos to use for the artwork.

Pearly Drops & Night Tapes Find Magic in the Electric Rework of “Fade to Black”

April 24, 2026 A hidden gem from the LP, the track has been reworked and rebuilt by London-based ambient pop-trio Night Tapes, and in essence isn’t a remix, it’s a collision of two of the most distinct palettes in ambient-pop, trading a pulsating rhythm for an immersive cinematic haze.
