Reo Nagumo (born November 20th, 1973) can be considered the grandfather of BEMANI. He was the first sound director, the first in-house composer, and did the first title screen music. He's also the only BEMANI composer to sound direct all three beatmania series, as well as write songs for the short-lived ''ParaParaParadise''. His musical styles are especially focused on rave and pop music, though he dabbled in a few other genres as well. | Reo Nagumo (born November 20th, 1973) can be considered the grandfather of BEMANI.

In 2000 Reo Nagumo stopped working in-house and became a commission artist, continuing to write music for IIDX until 2006, and pop'n a little longer. He also did a remix of [[GRADIUSIC CYBER]] for once-colleague [[Takayuki Ishikawa|dj TAKA]]'s album ''milestone''. In 2008 all of his post-[[AC 4th style|4th style]] songs were removed from IIDX, and the following year so were all of his songs in DanceDanceRevolution (and quite a few in pop'n music as well). | In 2000 Reo Nagumo stopped working in-house and became a commission artist, continuing to write music for IIDX until 2006, and pop'n a little longer.

It was hinted that he inherited a sushi restaurant (see the [[Tiger_yamato#Music_Production_Info|music production Info for tiger yamato]]), though this was later proven untrue.
