Masashi Kageyama
影山雅司

After composing the cult-favorite Gimmick! for the NES, Kageyama slowly retreated from the limelight and decided to change gears from music to design. He built his new career over the years and not only went on to master photography and design, but also ended up becoming an in-house favorite at NARU, the oldest jazz house in Japan.

As a jazz enthusiast himself, he started performing with his saxophone during the past two years, and today he’s officially back as a gaming composer with Brave Wave.

Kageyama looks forward to finally contributing his signature jazzy style to Western games.
