From DM to EM investment?

Hi guys, I've spend a few years doing FI investing (junior PM role) at a big AM firm (think PIMCO, BlackRock, GSAM, etc), focusing on low-risk US-only investments, but have recently started to think more about EM debt as it's definitely one of the growth areas. Just wondering if anyone here has made a shift from DM to EM or simply is EM investing? Specifically Asian Fixed income? I'm more interested in EM sovereign and corporates fundamental analysis, but am trying to get a grasp of the FX/global rates component as well. Would like to hear any suggestions / advices on how to make the transition, e.g. books to read, things to keep track of, respected names in the EM investing community, etc.

Cheers,
