He is a graduate of Metalworks Institute with a diploma in Audio Production & Engineering. With eight years of experience in music production, recording, and mixing, TOKO! bridges the gap between raw creative energy and pristine studio polish to deliver professional tracks.

Reaching across both North American and East Asian music markets, TOKO! works with artists, songwriters, and producers worldwide to create music in the global pop and rap spaces. He maintains active, collaborative ties within Canada, the US, Japan, Korea, and Australia, regularly writing and producing songs both in-studio and online.

TOKO! works closely with vibrant Canadian and American talent, collaborating with artists, songwriters, and producers like Skip Waiters, Tomi Lumiere, LordQuest, Emma Klein, Sofia Kay, and many others. His technical standards are further sharpened through his current internship and collaboration with two-time GRAMMY Award-winning songwriter, producer, and mixing engineer Riley Bell.

TOKO! regularly works alongside artists, songwriters, and producers from Japan such as Cyprus, DJ Uppercut, and many more. He continually expands his network with local musicians and industry professionals, bringing his unique, new-age flair to the Japanese music scene.

Beyond Japan, TOKO! writes and produces tracks for global opportunities.

Sonically versatile, TOKO! refuses to be bound by genre. While heavily versed in K-pop, R&B, pop, hip-hop, and underground rap, his production catalogue also encompasses indie and rock records. Whether writing in fast-paced camps, collaborating directly with artists, or producing to a brief, TOKO! is dedicated to working with creative collaborators worldwide to make music that has an impact!
