The Flexican is an off-the-wall name that is being heard more and more these days.  The young dutch DJ exploded onto the party scene when Diplo picked up his old track “Bumaye” and collaborated on a suped up version of it with Busy Signal and Major Lazer.  The track has been a smash hit with the music video garnering 1 million views in less than a week and peak time support from some of the heaviest hitters in the game.   Flexican mashes up an eclectic mix of styles and influences from around the world to create a sound that is all his own.  He's  the perfect embodiment of the new internet producer and his Influencer chart  may be our favorite yet. Ranging from hip hop, to deep house, and back to moombahton the chart showcases his excellent and wide ranging taste in all genres of music.  Listen to the chart below and don't forget to check out Flexican's commentary on his song selection after the jump.

2. Stevie wonder – Superstition (The Flexican & SirOJ Moom Remix)

"If a crowd doesn't dance, I can play this remix I made, and it always works"

3.Munchi – Pero Que lo Que Mujer

4.Drake – Started from the Bottom

6.Major Lazer ft The Flexican, FS Green & Busy Signal – Watch Out For This (Bumaye)

"The track is the first taste of Major Lazer’s forthcoming album,  Free The Universe. However,  this track has origins dating back to 2005 when I produced it. A year ago I made a club remix. Diplo heard the track and hooked up with me, my co-producer FS Green and recruited dancehall singer Busy Signal to drop vocals over the remake.

We went to Jamaica last January to shoot the video, the official release is set for this summer."

7.Barrington Levy – The Vibes Is Right

"After shooting the video in kingston, we stayed for a small holiday in Jamaica and this song was our ultimate "chill" ganja anthem"

8.Lil Wayne – Love Me (feat. Drake & Future)

"love the all 'the mike will made' production, especially with future on hooks with the lowpass filter on the synths. big record."

9.Roberto Roena – Que Se Sepa

"One of my favorite fania records, the funk part at the biginnig and the chorus, and then it flips to salsa. eclectic tothe fullest."

10. Rita Ora – Radioactive (The Flexican Remix

"I really loved to remix this record for Rita Ora."
