About

Hi, I’m Juan Manuel Lopez Lagar, a freelance Sound Technician and music producer with extensive experience in audio production, editing, mixing and mastering for releases by independent artists and bands. I perform studio recordings and post-production work, and I lead Rocket Band as composer and multi-instrumentalist (bass, guitar and vocals). I’m also a graphic designer responsible for promotion and networks, and I work as a session musician for recordings and live performances.

I’m looking to join recording studios, production companies, or cultural institutions where I can apply my experience in music production, live sound, and project coordination. My goal is to contribute to high-quality productions by collaborating in teams and managing complex schedules and logistics across multiple cities, while continuing to grow creatively and professionally.
