BIIANCO is one of the most talented musicians we know. This week they join us for an hour of fascinating conversation, sharing their journey from composing classical music to thumping dance music (via the Dalston Superstore basement).

They also tell us about their recent collaboration with Marlon Hoffstadt, their love of hard groove and how they've been influenced by the UK scene. Plus, BIIANCO shares what it's been like navigating the music industry since going blind in one eye.@jaguarworldwide@katiebaxter28
