For this week's episode, you're going to want to either strap in for interplanetary travel or strap on your dancing shoes, because this duo from Mexico City is producing music that is out of this world and easy to get down to (just ask my daughter). Pammela Rojos and Rafael Marfil have been producing music of many genres together for a long time under various names. Shiro Schwarz, however, is one that joins a lot of that previous influence to create some that is as funky as it is poetic.

We talk about what goes into their music, where their music has brought them, grabbing breakfast with Nicolas Jaar, and what advice they have for aspiring creators. It's not hard to fall in love with this sound, so why not meet the people behind it?
