Los Pablos is one of Mexico’s most celebrated modern jazz trios, bringing together Pablo Loaiza (drums), Pablo Castro (piano), and Pablo Flores (bass) in a project that has helped redefine the sound of contemporary Mexican jazz. Formed in Mexico City in 2018, the trio emerged from the vibrant jam-session scene and quickly gained recognition for its sophisticated blend of improvisation, original compositions, and modern jazz influences inspired by artists such as Brad Mehldau, Robert Glasper, and Jacky Terrason.

What makes Los Pablos special is their ability to combine technical mastery with a distinctive group identity. Rather than simply interpreting jazz standards, they have developed a rich catalog of original music, showcased in their acclaimed Vol. 1 (2022) and Vol. 2 (2023), establishing them as one of the most exciting creative forces in Mexico’s jazz community.

TESTIMONIALS

His primary mission is to reflect its contemporary reality through its art. Responding to the need for spaces in which to document the growing independent music scene rooted in improvisation, Pesticide Free Music was born. This scene is expanding rapidly and increasingly faces a shortage of appropriate spaces for the free expression of its art. Pesticide Free Music is an artistic sonic space led by its founder, designed and adapted to allow the artist simply to be. I have no doubt that it will become one of the key venues spoken of in the future when discussing the birthplace of what will become the landmark works of an era that is proving ever more fascinating to live through. / Su principal misión es reflejar su realidad contemporánea a través de su arte. Respondiendo a la necesidad de espacios donde documentar la creciente escena musical independiente, enraizada en la improvisación, nace Pesticide Free Music. Esta escena se está expandiendo rápidamente y se encuentra cada vez más con la limitación de espacios apropiados para la libre expresión de su arte. Pesticide Free Music es un espacio artístico sonoro dirigido por su fundador, diseñado y adaptado para permitir al artista simplemente ser. No me cabe duda de que se convertirá en uno de los espacios clave de los que se hablará en el futuro cuando se hable de la cuna de lo que serán las obras emblemáticas de una época que cada vez resulta más fascinante vivir.

From the professional equipment and acoustically treated recording space to the founder’s dedication to ensuring that everything runs smoothly, the attention to detail is exceptional. The studio offers all the qualities musicians look for when settling in to work creatively, with the added benefit of green outdoor areas where one can take a break, relax, and enjoy a cigarette in a peaceful setting.

“…I want to tell you that it was a very enjoyable experience. I liked the studio very much because it is not a conventional recording studio; rather, it is an adaptation of a house with wonderful acoustics. The atmosphere is extremely pleasant for playing and recording, and I felt inspired by that environment. As for the double bass, the sound came out beautifully—exactly the way I like it, preserving the instrument’s natural tone and character. Overall, Jan’s work as an engineer is truly outstanding. The microphone placement and every aspect of the acoustic design were very thoughtfully planned and executed.” / "... quiero decirles que fue una experiencia muy grata ... el estudio me gustó mucho, porque es un estudio no común ... sino que es una adaptación de una casa que tiene una acústica maravillosa ... el ambiente es muy grato para tocar para grabar. Me sentí inspirado por este ambiente. En el caso del contrabajo ... el sonido del bajo salió muy bien, como a mi me gusta, el color del instrumento. En general, el trabajo de Jan como ingeniero realmente es superior, la colocación, toda la parte acústica muy bien planeada..."
