Profile
Takayuki Ishikawa (born June 4th, 1975) is a BEMANI composer best known as the once head sound director of the beatmania IIDX series, where he was the head sound director from beatmania IIDX substream all the way up until beatmania IIDX 12 HAPPY SKY. He's also composed a song for every beatmania IIDX arcade game with the exception of substream. He has written some of the most prolific/famous songs in all of BEMANI, including Abyss, .59, A, V, sync, and many more. Takayuki's also been a regular contributor to pop'n music since pop'n music 5. Prior to working at Konami, Takayuki was a music composer for NAMCO.
