The 31-year-old composer began his career at Yasunori Mitsuda’s Procyon Studio, where he worked on Luminous Arc and Super Smash Bros. Brawl. He subsequently became a sound creator at Game Freak, contributing numerous pieces of music to Pokemon HeartGold & SoulSilver, Pokemon Black & White, and Pokemon Black 2 & White 2. In his latest role, he served as the sound director and lead composer of the critically acclaimed Pokemon X and Pokemon Y.

About the Author

I've contributed to websites related to game audio since 2002. In this time, I've reviewed over a thousand albums and interviewed hundreds of musicians across the world. As the founder and webmaster of VGMO -Video Game Music Online-, I hope to create a cutting-edge, journalistic resource for all those soundtrack enthusiasts out there. In the process, I would love to further cultivate my passion for music, writing, and generally building things. Please enjoy the site and don't hesitate to say hello!
