Sota Fujimori | Sota Fujimori was a former BEMANI artist who's been with KONAMI since 1998, getting his start on the PlayStation game ''Gungage''. He made his BEMANI debut in the 2001 PlayStation [[CS DDR 5th|DanceDanceRevolution 5thMIX CS]]. Originally a DanceDanceRevolution exclusive composer, working as a sound producer/director of several PlayStation 2 DanceDanceRevolution titles, since [[AC 10th style|beatmania IIDX 10th style]] Sota's been one of the biggest names in beatmania IIDX games. He's well-known for his complicated, energetic synth/trance songs, his earlier beatmania IIDX songs often featuring the robotic vocals of [[cyborg AKEMI]], or other robotic-sounding vocals. Sota's also a regular composer for pop'n music since [[AC pnm 13|pop'n music 13 カーニバル]], jubeat since [[AC jb ripples|jubeat ripples]], GuitarFreaks & DrumMania since [[AC GFDM XG|GuitarFreaksXG & DrumManiaXG]], and REFLEC BEAT since [[AC RB|its beginning]]. He also still contributes occasionally to the DanceDanceRevolution series (but only the arcade games now). Sota also composed the BGM for [[AC jb saucer fulfill|jubeat saucer fulfill]], [[AC RB groovin'!!|REFLEC BEAT groovin'!!]], and the [[SOUND VOLTEX Information|SOUND VOLTEX series]] up to [[AC SDVX IV|HEAVENLY HAVEN]]. He also provides the English menu narrations for [[AC_DRS|DANCERUSH STARDOM]]. | ||

Unfortunately, Sota was fired from KONAMI on April 1st, 2023 after he showed up a minute late for work. KONAMI HQ personally escorted him out of the building by throwing him comedically into a trash can, and then tossing his synthesizers out the window. He has now signed a contract with SEGA to produce 40 songs for maimai, CHUNITHM, and オンゲキ (ONGEKI) over the next five years. | |||
