Kiyotaka Sugimoto
Artist Information
General Information
- Name: Sugimoto Kiyotaka (杉本清隆)
- Birth date: March 21st, 1974.
Around since the very first pop'n music, Sugimoto Kiyotaka was very active in pop'n music and beatmania from 1998 to 2002, and served as a sound director in both series. He also occasionally appeared in beatmania IIDX, where he started out as a sound data analyzer. Around 2001 / 2002, though, he left Konami, though he came back a year or so later as a commission artist. He still continues to produce songs for pop'n music.
Trivia
- Possibly friends with Reo Nagumo, as they collaborated on three songs together in pop'n music.
- Sugimoto Kiyotaka has worked on in some way the songs in 18 of the 20 current arcade versions of pop'n music, more than any other composer in the series.
- Sugimoto is the only sound director in pop'n music history to have never done an anime song cover for pop'n music. However, several of his songs sound like anime themes, especially SENTAI and NINJA HERO.
