Robert Nemeček

Robert Nemeček (Serbian Cyrillic: Роберт Немечек, 26 May 1949 – 9 January 2024) was a Serbian and Yugoslav musician, music producer, television editor, and organizer of events related to music.

Nemeček started his musical career as a member of the progressive/psychedelic rock band Dogovor iz 1804. After the group ended its activity, Nemeček shortly played with one of the last lineups of Džentlmeni, before forming the progressive rock band Pop Mašina in 1972. The band achieved nationwide success, disbanding in 1978. In 1980, Nemeček, with other former members of Pop Mašina, formed the short-lasting but influential hard rock and heavy metal band Rok Mašina. After Rok Mašina disbanded in 1982, Nemeček retired from music.

Nemeček started his career in the media in the late 1970s, as correspondent from London for Yugoslav magazines. He worked in Dadov Theatre as an editor of the theatre's rock concerts program, before becoming the film program editor at RTV Politika. In the 1990s he became the editor of film program on Television Pink, later moving to Radio Television of Serbia, where he was assistant general director, eventually becoming the editor-in-chief TV Avala. From 2010 until his death he was working as a freelance media consultant.
