Los Hendrix

Carlos Daniel Muñoz, known professionally as Los Hendrix, is an American record producer and songwriter, best known for co-producing and co-writing "Good Days," the top 10 lead single from SZA's album SOS.

Career

Early life

Growing up in a Puerto Rican and Cuban household, Muñoz' family would regularly play artists like Celia Cruz and Gloria Estefan, on top of soul-rooted music like The Temptations and The Stylistics. Muñoz would later discover Notorious B.I.G. and Jimi Hendrix, among others.

Music career

Muñoz began working with GOOD Music early in his career, and counts producer Che Pope as a mentor. This evolved into finding a young Brent Faiyaz and helping to develop his sound. In 2017, Muñoz began crafting a bright-sounding song built around a "lush" guitar riff, and sent it to a friend: fellow producer Nascent. After drums were added, the producers sent the song to Carter Lang, who kept the production until his next session with SZA. As soon as SZA heard the song, she began to write something hopeful to match the production. The final product, "Good Days," became her first solo top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart.
