Profile
Atsushi Shindo (born April 7th, 1969) was a prolific commission artist in the pop'n music series, appearing in almost every arcade entry from pop'n music 3 through pop'n music 10 (the one exception being pop'n music 6). He is well-known for the long-running POWERFOLK series of songs, and his distinctive singing voice.
In 2004 Atsushi's 5-year contact with Konami expired. At the same time, though, Atsushi was being accused of plagiarism in his lyrics, as this web page illustrates the accounts of. When this became public, Konami removed all of Atsushi's songs from the pop'n music arcade series starting with pop'n music 12 いろは; he hasn't been seen in any installment in pop'n music since. Despite the plagiarism controversy, Atsushi continued to write music with his long-time arrangement partner, Katsuyuki Harada, until 2006.
Trivia
- Data of Eros can be found in pop'n music 11. However, the song never made it to the final version.
- All of Atsushi Shindo's songs were composed and sung by Atsushi himself, and all of them were arranged by Katsuyuki Harada (原田勝道).
- The one exception was Shake! -Game Ver.-, whose short cut was co-arranged by Yoichi Hayashi.
