Feel the Music, Hear the Magic
Hey there, I’m Alberto Fernandez, a Nicaraguan living in The Netherlands for five years now. I’ve got a musical heartbeat, starting as a drummer and evolving into an audio engineer after studying sound engineering here in the Netherlands.
I can bring your recordings to life with a full width mix, I can also help you with the mastering of your songs to meet the industry standards and get the best out of your mix, or both!.
If you are in the Netherlands I can record your demo, songs, albums and as a drummer I can program realistic feel drums for any genre (grooves, sound, type of drums, etc).
My past experience also includes 15 years in the music and event industry as an event producer, designing and organizing the biggest events and concerts in Nicaragua and Honduras (as part of the producing team). I’m all about music, all about collaborating and working with other people.

A well-mastered track achieves sonic perfection, balancing frequencies for clarity and warmth. It transforms sound into a captivating experience, showcasing the artistry of skilled engineering.
First 7 seconds of each track is unmastered, the next 7 seconds is the mastered version. BEWARE OF VOLUME JUMP.

Current Projects
Currently collaborating with Lenin del Rio, I am recording his acoustic guitar performance and managing the realistic drum programming for his upcoming song.
Here you can listen to Lenin Del Río’s other songs.
Augusto Mayorga has always been super into music, listening to all kinds of genres. He’s always had these cool ideas for chords and melodies, plus he’s got a knack for storytelling and writing lyrics. Now that he’s living in the Netherlands, Augusto is diving deep into music recording and trying his hand at composing and collaborating with other musicians for his project. I’m lending a hand with his journey to drop his first EP, which will have about four tracks.
Fulfilling a long-standing desire, the project involves uniting the original members of my Nicaraguan band “CRISIS” (from my youth) to recreate its songs with enhanced audio quality. The objective is to capture the essence of the original compositions while adding the collective experience of each member for a more mature and evolved sound. The inaugural track of this EP is “Ten Calma.”
Following CRISIS, Josué Monroy established Monroy y Surmenage, quickly rising to become one of Centroamerica’s most renowned and acclaimed bands. Meanwhile, Joel Martinez formed multiple metal bands, solidifying his presence as a prominent figure in the Nicaraguan metal scene.
Doing full production and recordings for Joel Martinez and teaming up on realistic drum programming for the different music styles he’s working on. Also, handling the mixing and mastering.
Here you can listen to Joel’s former band, LECASET.
