I am Tolgа́ Dzh. Tahsinov, also known as TOGGY.

An author with five published books in the genres of prose and poetry, translated into four languages.

A guitarist, alternative rock performer, and music producer who develops every idea from the first note to the final mastering.

My work straddles the line between literature and music. I write poetry, stories, and lyrics that explore the psyche, identity, and the tension between who we are and who we become. I create alternative music with character – I compose, arrange, record, and mix with my own signature style.

In my home studio, I record and mix music with attention to detail and the feeling behind the sound. I teach guitar and bass, as well as the basics of music production and mixing. I work with beginners who want to develop their ear, discover their voice, and build confidence – through practical singing exercises and basic keyboard playing.

I also assist with writing – both for songs and literary projects – from the initial idea to the finished piece.

I paint emotions that take shape on the canvas.
Each of my works begins with a feeling, not an idea. First comes the pain, then it becomes a painting.

I’m based in Varna, but I work with people from all over the country and beyond. I participate in and organize events in various cities, where connecting with the audience is part of the creative process itself.
