I'm Álvaro Gallego, a mastering engineer based in Vigo, Galicia. My journey in the music world has been diverse and hands-on.

I've spent seven years collaborating with Newell Acoustics, where I contributed to the construction of recording studios in various locations, including Dubai and Switzerland. This experience deepened my knowledge of acoustics and studio design, complementing my mastering work.

As a bass player, I've recorded over ten albums with bands like Guerrera, Durarará, Qa'a, Cuchillo de Fuego, and Cuzo, and I've performed in more than 300 concerts.

I also founded a guitar pedal and synths company called Barullo. Currently, I'm actively involved in inventing and developing new musical technologies under the name Tremor Labs.

Throughout my journey, I've had the privilege of collaborating with various artists, including Death Whistle, Moura, Los Sara Fontán,Carlos Risco, Verbose, Pálida, Vietcong, Artur M Puga, Che Garrido, and many others. Additionally, I've worked alongside engineer Oswaldo Terrones on projects with Daedelus, Howe Welb, and Victor Santana.

I'm here to apply my diverse experiences and skills to assist you with your music projects.


As an acoustician and electronics technician, I have learnt to love the hardware without losing sight of the fact that it is not the tools that make the craftsman.

Would you like to work with me?

The goal is emotion, whether it’s a string ensemble, a piece of field recording or a punk trio.

Helping artists to achieve this, whatever emotion they need to convey to the listener and being a fresh, honest and a responsible reference before reaching the world is my task.
I keep it simple: I'm here to help finish your records

I am a sound engineer and I have been helping artists to finish their albums for 14 years.

My background as a musician, an open mind and my experience on the technical side are my best tools.
