Profile
A long-time contributor to both beatmania IIDX and pop'n music, Tomoyuki's work with BEMANI stretches as far back as November 1999, where he started off as a sound data analyzer alongside Osamu Migitera and Jun Wakita in pop'n music 3. Less than a year later he wrote his first BEMANI song for KEYBOARDMANIA 2ndMIX, Ride on the Light. Shortly after he sound directed / supervised seven beatmania IIDX arcade games in a row, starting with beatmania IIDX 4th style. He worked alongside dj TAKA from 4th to 8th, along with SLAKE (who he once managed) in 9th and 10th. He also contributed covers / notecharts for pop'n music alongside his beatmania IIDX duties.
Tomoyuki left KONAMI in 2004 alongside SLAKE, though he continued to work on the CS beatmania IIDX games as a notechart designer until beatmania IIDX 16 EMPRESS + PREMIUM BEST. He was last listed in the credits of a BEMANI game as "special thanks" in pop'n music portable 2.
Tomoyuki currently works at Sony Music Publishing Japan (Inc.) as a composer and arranger. Despite this, he still pops up once or twice a year in BEMANI games.
