Eddie “eMIX” Hernández is more than an audio engineer. He is a sonic architect, a cultural curator, and one of the most respected behind‑the‑boards forces to ever emerge from North Miami, Florida. With over 25 years of experience shaping the sound of modern hip-hop, R&B, and global music culture, eMIX stands as a Grammy Award–winning, multi‑platinum engineer and producer whose fingerprints are on some of the most influential records of the last two decades. His work has powered the voices of icons, elevated the careers of rising stars, and helped define the sound of an entire generation.
This year, Eddie “eMIX” Hernández joins Mic Check Wynwood Season 4 as one of only 16 elite judges, bringing his world‑class ear, industry wisdom, and Miami-rooted authenticity to a competition built to launch the next wave of global artists.
A Legacy Built in the Studio
Born and raised in North Miami, eMIX grew up surrounded by the rhythms, cultures, and stories that make South Florida one of the most musically diverse regions in the world. His journey began long before the plaques, the Grammys, and the multi‑platinum certifications. It started with curiosity — a fascination with how sound works, how music moves people, and how the right mix can transform a good song into a timeless record.
Over the years, that curiosity evolved into mastery.
Eddie became the go‑to engineer for some of the biggest names in the industry, trusted not only for his technical precision but for his ability to elevate an artist’s vision. His credits include work with Jay‑Z, Rick Ross, Cardi B, Gucci Mane, Megan Thee Stallion, and countless others who dominate charts and shape culture.
His engineering and production contributions can be heard on major records such as:
“Wake Up in the Sky”
“Savage”
“Fuckwithmeyouknowigotit”
“Enough (Miami)”

He understands the emotional core of a record. He knows how to bring out the best in a performance, how to polish a mix without losing its soul, and how to create a sonic landscape that feels alive.
His brand is rooted in:

Every frequency matters. Every detail counts. eMIX approaches each record with the same level of care, whether it’s a major-label release or an independent artist’s first single.
