Bogotá-based producer, songwriter and mixing engineer: I write and produce in Spanish and play the parts myself (guitar, bass, keys, synths) for finished Latin pop, reggaeton and R&B records.
Bogotá-based producer, songwriter and mixing engineer. Full-time for 4 years, 80+ released songs and 7M+ streams, mostly with emerging artists who want a finished record, not just a beat. Credits include original music for Telemundo.
I write and produce in Spanish, and I play the parts myself: guitar, bass, keys and synths recorded in my own treated room, so your song gets real instrumentation instead of loops.
I'm also a member of Piel Camaleón, an indie rock-pop band singing in Spanish, and we've played live at Movistar Arena. My production work has taken me to Mexico (9 trips), New York (5), Boston, Los Angeles, Madrid, Barcelona and Portugal.
Co-writing, arrangement, production, vocal editing, mix and master in one place, with your feedback at every stage. You can also hire me for just one piece: a mix, a Spanish topline, or live guitar and bass.
Fully remote (Zoom, real-time sessions, fast turnaround). English and Spanish.

check_circleVerifiedIt was a real pleasure working with Chicken Alejandro. His work was solid and he was very open to collaboration, which made the whole process smooth. Having the chance to work together via Zoom made everything much easier and more direct. As a person, he’s very pleasant and professional.

Working with Alejandro is such an amazing experience as an artist. He is very passionate and extremely talented. He understands music technically, he will never impose himself over the song, but will help you through the whole process to understand what you really need and want. His versatility allows you to explore different genres, and his musical taste will leave you feeling like you always need more. Recommend 100%
La vida nos dio la oportunidad de juntarnos hace 2 años y desde ahí todo ha sido magia pura... Con Chicken he tenido la oportunidad de fluir y sacar todo ese artista que llevaba dentro. Desde el primer dia siempre estuvo dispuesto a escuchar lo que quería, entenderlo, quererlo, y con su gran talento: transformarlo. Más que artista, productor y compositor; una gran persona. Si buscas tener gente transparente, respetuosa y sincera en esta industria, pocos como el... Tanto en talento como en ser humano. Responsable, trabajador, maravilloso. TQM piopio (LA BESTIA).
Soy autor firmado por Warner Chappell y he tenido la oportunidad de trabajar con varios productores a lo largo de mi carrera. De todos ellos, me atrevería a decir que Chicken es de los mejores con los que he trabajado.
Es un crack produciendo, tiene muy buen oído, entiende rápido la idea que uno tiene en la cabeza y sabe cómo llevarla a otro nivel sin quitarle la esencia a la canción. Además es muy fácil trabajar con él, siempre está dispuesto a probar cosas nuevas y se nota que realmente le pone cariño a cada proyecto.He trabajado con Chikendro dos años y puedo decir que su trabajo como productor y artista es excelente. Más allá de ser un buen productor, es un gran compositor que sabe guiar los proyectos musicales con coherencia y creatividad. Además, su sensibilidad y capacidad de escucha permite que la visión del artista se materialice siendo fieles a su identidad musical. Es un productor y compositor muy versátil que sabe trabajar diferentes géneros y en todos puede aportar mucho al proyecto.
He trabajado con Chickendro desde hacer una producción hasta mandarle canciones para mezcla y mastering. Y la verdad la calidad que tiene es excelente además de la buena vibra y capacidad de conectar con su entorno a la hora de trabajar. Me hace muy feliz trabajar con Chickendro desde lo más técnico hasta lo más creativo ✨🤘🏼

Interview with Chickendro
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: A steady run of songs for emerging Latin artists in pop, reggaeton and R&B, plus my own artist project.
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: Honest feedback, clear communication and delivery on the date we agree.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: What are your references, how many songs or tracks, do you already have lyrics or want to co-write, and what is your release date?
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Send a rough demo or voice memo plus two or three reference songs. That is enough for me to quote accurately and start in the right direction.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Latin pop, reggaeton, R&B and alt-pop, always in Spanish, from ballads and boleros to urban.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Writing and producing in Spanish while playing the parts myself (guitar, bass, keys, synths), so the record sounds like a band, not a loop pack. I move between Latin pop, reggaeton and R&B without losing the artist's identity.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: Songs in Spanish that feel finished: real instruments, clear arrangements, vocals that sit right and a mix that translates. I stay involved from idea to master, so you deal with one person the whole way.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Complete songs for emerging Latin artists. I co-write in Spanish, arrange, produce, edit vocals, mix and master, usually starting from a demo or a rough idea and ending with a release-ready record.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Proper gain staging from the start is key. Be wise at choosing sounds.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I begin by understanding the vision of the project, then I work on the structure of the song. After it's all clear, beatmaking begins, keeping in mind sound design and arrangements. Vocal Production is key to fine-tune final decisions on the beat and be sure they're working together. I tend to mix as I go, so it's always sounding professional from the start. I tune and edit vocals, then mix from what I've already worked on before, and finish with the mastering stage. My artists give me feedback in between all stages, so we're always on the same page and creating together.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I have an acoustically treated room, UAD Apollo Twin as my audio interface, MacBook Pro M2 Max, Yamaha HS8, Slate VMS ML1 emulating Microphone, Ableton Live 11, Pro Tools, Steven Slate VSX Modeling System, Audio Technica ATH-M50x, Fender stratocaster and Telecaster, Gibson Les Paul, Fender PJ Bass, Fender Jazz Bass, NI Komplete Kontroller, Ableton Push, MPC Touch.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Harry Styles, FKJ, Tom Misch, Tainy, Bad Bunny, Tame Impala.
