Because I'm writing about an AM1 musician for #RSIndividual (which goes up on #WinterFest in 2 days!) I went down the rabbit hole in wizard's forest. But I need to get back to the main writing so I can make my deadline, and not have my own Byousatsu.

I've just had an idea for #RSIndividual at #RSWinterFest that could make the opening song really special. I've just gotta pull it off.

I spent about 12 hours rewriting Tomoko Sasaki's Sega Retro page today. So many things I learned for #RSIndividual during WinterFest last year, but also some things I didn't know.

One last bit of music to catch up on while assembling the #RSIndividual music for tomorrow. Since I've heard Tim P.'s vocals in Comix Zone / Roadkill for so long, it's neat to hear them in a new context.
4/8 call out a Rolling Stones influence.

I know most weeks, the latest song I've recorded for #RSIndividual is my favourite, and that's the case again. But, considering I sang 2 songs this time, I'm very proud!

We come full circle. Out Run has kept coming up in Fukuyama's early years, and this episode of #RSIndividual ends discussing his Splash Wave remix for Bayonetta.
The same year, Fukuyama also made an appearance on Yakuza 3, the precursor to a famous era of his career…

For Derby Owners Club 2008, Mitsuharu Fukuyama (+ Takenobu Mitsuyoshi) went to Prague to record the FILMharmonic Orchestra Prague. Not only did they also do Mitsuyoshi’s 2008 WCCF soundtrack, FILMharmonic Orchestra also scored Phantasy Star Online 2 (and more!)

TOUCH de ZUNO DS uses plenty of music taken straight from the arcade game, some of them compressed recordings, some of them ported straight to the DS hardware. But just like TOUCH de UNO DS, it has a brand new pop theme song sung by the voice actors. And Takedude for good measure!

How many video game composers do you know whose instruments are the trumpet and flugelhorn? Those (and keyboard) are what Mitsuharu Fukuyama plays, giving his band [H.] a unique sound, and nabbing him plenty or guest appearances in other composers’ games.

Hitmaker included well-known fanfares from Japanese horse racing in the first Derby Owners Club games. In Japan. When the game made its way worldwide, Mitsuharu Fukuyama composed brand new knock-off fanfares.

Plenty of songs in Crackin’ DJ Part 2 were actually written for the first game, but they were rejected because they didn't fit that game's style of music. The sequel had a more fun, mainstream feel so let songs like “Crush on You” and “Natural Flow” shine.

In between all this faux hip-hop music, we're hearing the pastoral, orchestral sounds of Derby Owners Club II. Somehow Mitsuharu Fukuyama managed to take over as composer for DOC2 after already Crackin’ DJ from the same guy: Taihei Sato.

Crackin’ DJ's music is all about 90's hip-hop. So how did a latin song like “thrill of ecstasy” get in there? It was the first song Mitsuharu Fukuyama ever composed at SEGA and he really pushed for it to be included.
