Los Angeles based Eleven-Time Grammy-Winner Producer, Mixer/Engineer Rafa Sardina has built an eclectic and impressive client list in the recent years: Stevie Wonder, Macy Gray, Michael Jackson, Shakira, Dr. Dre, Dru Hill, Armando Manzanero, Jessy Moss, Mariah Carey, Luis Miguel, Paco de Lucía, Sheryl Crow, Soul Coughing, Elan, Beyonce, Angie Stone and Alejandro Sanz, among many others. He has received 25 Grammy Nominations, both American and Latin, for his work with Stevie Wonder, Luis Miguel and Alejandro Sanz.

As a musician, engineer and producer Rafa connects easily with artists and has tremendous respect for creating a studio vibe that's performance-friendly for both new and established talent.

Rafa's love for music began at an early age playing guitar and attending recording sessions in his native Spain. After four years in Medical school, Rafa chose to pursue his life-long passion: Music. A live sound stint with folk, jazz and world artists in Northern Spain and South of France led him to the United States where he attended Full Sail University in order to expand his knowledge and abilities. He graduated with a Valedictorian Award for achievements and excellence. Soon after, he landed an engineering apprenticeship at the legendary Ocean Way Studios in Hollywood and Record One Studios in Sherman Oaks. Rafa had the unique opportunity to work with world renown artists on a daily basis: Black Crows, Celine Dion, Madonna, The Rolling Stones, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Frank Sinatra, to name a few. He also worked on The Academy Awards pre-records and numerous movies. Rafa's intuition to move to Los Angeles had proved to be one of the most rewarding synergies of his life.

Though Sardina is best known for working on pop/rock and R&B sounds or albums, he has recorded and mixed just about any genre of music you can imagine: orchestra, big band, choir, film/TV soundtracks and movie scores like "Any given Sunday", "102 Dalmatians", "Michael Jordan- To the Max", "Biker Boyz", "Princesas", Tyler Perry's "Madea's Family Reunion" and many more.

Over the years Rafa has developed professional and personal relationships with many artists that he has grown to respect. 
"At the end of the day, it comes down to a simple studio philosophy - I'm there to make sure the artist is having fun. I see my work much like a photographer's, as transparent as possible when required but always providing the creative edge to affect the song and performance in a positive way. To achieve this goal, I like to create a comfortable and inspiring environment using the best acoustics and tools available."
