While living in London Pablo had the opportunity to work in a wide range of artistic outlets, spanning from a performance installation by icelandic artists Ragnar Kjartansson and Kjartan Sveinsson (ex-Sigur Rós) at the Barbican Centre, composing music for the Tate Modern and releasing his second EP as PBSR ...and dusky doors with Yucatan Records in 2018, which premiered on BBC1 in UK by Phil Taggart. More recently he released four tracks with Anjunadeep, including a collaboration with German techno rising star Ben Böhmer.
Pablo's music and sound design work can also be heard in advertising campaigns for Twitter, Pepe Jeans, The London Nº1 or SEAT, as in 2020 he gained a position as music producer and assistant composer at Banjo Soundscapes with Iván Llopis.
