Listen to Francesca Lombardo’s SXM Festival exclusive mix

Francesca Lombardo hits SXM Festival on the Caribbean island of Saint Martin from Wednesday 15th to Sunday 19th March alongside Ricardo Villalobos, Nina Kraviz, Âme, Black Coffee, Raresh, Rhadoo and many more.

Ahead of spinning at the event the Italian-born selector has provided an exclusive mix for DJ Mag that presents the floor-focused selection of sultry tech that has seen her booked to play some of the world’s biggest stages.

Lombardo’s ‘Remembrance’ was huge in summer 2015, and on Friday 3rd March a four-track remix package lands on her own Echoe imprint, with Cassy, Laura Jones, Jade and La Fleur all reworking the cut.
