Producer
Recording and producing acoustic music is the heart of it - records made with real instruments in real rooms. Three worlds keep coming back: jazz, Afro-Cuban and Brazilian music, and a growing symphonic, cinematic line. One rule throughout: quality over reach.
Three complementary Prague studios, three sounds, three scales - all reachable through a single door. A project starts with a short brief: number of tracks, live recording or stems, scope, references, deadline. A detailed proposal with timeline and price follows, prepared in Baracca Creative Hub - studio software of his own making. Remote mixing and mastering clients are welcome when capacity allows.
Typical turnaround: about a month for a single, around half a year for an album.
Studios & services
Baracca Records
home base - booking through Tomáš
A recording studio and label in Prague's Vršovice, built on one bias: quality over reach. It works with independent artists - real talent that might not get a shot at a major yet. Tomáš isn't the owner; he is its creative heart.
Baracca began around 2015, when an album with percussionist Karim Red - Special of the Day: The First Course - turned a friendship into a studio. Defining instruments: a Petrof III grand, a Hammond B3 with Leslie, a Fender Rhodes Mark I; Cubase Pro 15 and Logic Pro in the control room. The studio is curated, not rented - access runs through Tomáš or people he works with closely.

Epic Rebels
composer & producer duo - with Tomáš Medek
Cinematic, trailer and symphonic music that bridges the realms of innovation and tradition. A handful of singles is out on Spotify; the first major premiere - Divertimento Scheherazade, variations on Rimsky-Korsakov - comes to Festival Krumlov in July 2026.
“Creating anything with Tom is a joy - as much in his professionalism and precision as in his warmth and feel for the work. Whether he's recording piano or sitting at the mixing desk as producer. Looking back over the past few years, I would choose him again and again, and it's an honour and a pleasure to get to work with him.”
Marie Němcovásinger-songwriter“Tomáš is one of the most talented and, at the same time, most modest people in our little pond. He has a sharp, refined, unusual sense of humour that sometimes works like a volcano - except the one who erupts… is you. His approach as a producer works the same way. Tomáš loves music and makes it for exactly that reason - an essential attitude, and one that is slowly dying out in our waters. I look forward to every session at his studio. Besides having great ears, he is a great, attentive partner for your song.”
