YOUR SONGS ARE UNIQUE

THEIR DRUMS SHOULD BE, TOO

DRUMS THAT HELP BRING OUT THE BEST IN YOUR SONG.

I help artists and producers bring their music to life by crafting drum and percussion parts that serve the unique vision behind each song. Whether it’s live drums, programmed beats, modular setups, or a hybrid mix, it’s always about doing what the song needs.

My goal is simple: help your music come alive and reach its full potential.

GET IN TOUCH

I’ve recorded on tracks with over 200 million streams across platforms (Spotify & YouTube), #1 Netflix shows; worldwide Olympics campaigns and toured throughout Europe, Latin America, USA and more. Always staying focused on delivering the sound and feel that makes each artist stand out.

If you want drums that enhance your song’s identity, hit that button and let’s make something great.

HOW IT WORKS

We’LL CHAT about the SOUND & FEEL YOU’RE AFTER. Communication is KEY FOR NAILING THE DRUMS YOUR TRACK NEEDS.

Just send over a rough mix (with and without drums, if you have it), plus the BPM — via Dropbox or similar.

You’ll get an MP3 of the drum take in context with your track. We’ll discuss any tweaks you might want.

Once you're loving what I sent, I’ll send you 2 COMPs + PERCUSSION, one shots AND a stereo drum mix

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

Featured

“Tomás is one of the most amazing people I’ve worked with over the past 10 years. My company Make Pop Music has worked with him on a couple drum sample packs that have been used on thousands of records. We get messages from some of the biggest producers in the industry complimenting the drum tones, mixing, and grooves that Tomás provided us with. He’s also extremely easy to work with. He’s always punctual, easy to communicate with, and dedicated to the project.

I honestly think that Tomás’ drumming, mixing, and communication skills are second to none, and I can’t recommend working with him enough. If you’re looking for amazing drums for your record, look no further. You’ve found the perfect fit for your project.”

Testimonials (drummer)

Athenas

“Tomás instantly knew how to translate my ideas into a great drum part. With him taking care of all the logistics of performing and recording, getting great sounding drums was a quick, seamless experience."

Athenas; Latin-Grammy Nom. Worship Singer (100M+ streams across streaming platforms)

Mateo Rodo

“Tomás is not only an amazing drummer but also a great producer. Every time I use him in my productions he sends me thoughtfully chosen sounds. Also I often request loops and samples from him to use as building blocks and they always work!”

Mateo Rodo; Latin-Grammy Nom. Producer & Mixer (MYA, Ruggero, Maria Becerra)

Jordan Perry

“Tomas did a fantastic job of these drums! He pretty much nailed it the first take, and was happy to do some additional revisions to make it perfect. Tight playing and high quality recording. He also included some extra percussion and other ideas that I hadn't even asked for. Definitely above and beyond. Very highly recommended!."

Jordan Perry; Canadian Producer & Artist, JUNO Awards Judge

Santiago Baré

"In our work together Tomás has used drum programming, live drums, percussion and sound design in seamless ways and with equal fluency. What he adds to a project with this approach is a fully developed texture that definitely helps a track have its own sonic identity."

Santiago Baré; producer/session musician (Jac DeBaires)

David Moran

"I've had the honor and privilege of working with Tomás as a drummer and a producer in recent years. His vast knowledge and growing experience in music production has given him a real edge as a studio musician. As a performer he makes mature decisions regarding his role within the context of a song making him a credit to any project. His skills as a drummer always shine through when building the rhythmic tapestry in any production."

David Moran; American Producer/Songwriter (The Castle Walls)

Lucas Gienow

"I produce a lot of indie/Alt/country and I always recommend that my artists hire a real drummer for their tracks. With Tomás, the communication is always great and we really hone in on what the song and the production need in drumming terms, and then he sends extremely polished and elaborate drum & percussion tracks that just add so much life to the song and always make me look better. All of this to say, if you need drums for your next song I can’t recommend Tomás enough!"

Lucas Gienow; Producer & Mix Engineer (Nola Blue Records; Nearly York)

Historically not a fan of monthly photo dumps (do we really not have a better term for that?) since they can feel rather vain. But putting one together does spark some gratitude, so I dig that part.
