Sergio de Prado

Heavily influenced by classic video game and anime music since childhood, Sergio de Prado, also known as ‘sergeeo’ is a Spanish musician, producer, game developer and sound designer. With close ties to the demoscene and the chiptune scene (notably on the Kind of Bloop collaborative project), he has also been very active in the local rock, funk, ambient and electronic music scene. 
Sergio is a big fan of rompler sounds, as well as analog and FM synthesizers. He has been active full time in the game audio world for more than fifteen years, contributing to projects for Disney, Mattel, Dreamworks, Scopely, and more. Most recently, he served as a sound designer for Blasphemous 2 and is the lead composer for NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound.

Keiji Yamagishi

Keiji Yamagishi is a Famicom-era pioneer and has composed music for some of the most beloved gaming franchises, notably Ninja Gaiden, Tecmo Bowl, Captain Tsubasa and Gitaroo Man. In 2015, Yamagishi released his first ever solo album, The Retro-Active Experience, inspired from his Famicom days and fueled with more passion and inventiveness. Yamagishi returns to the Ninja Gaiden franchise with two tracks for Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound.

Kaori Nakabai

Following the works of Keiji Yamagishi and Ryuichi Nitta at Tecmo, Kaori Nakabai took over NINJA GAIDEN 3 and was able to deliver the same quality of music that the series was well known for. Her gameography includes Tecmo’s role-playing game Radia Senki (composed alongside Yamagishi) and the fan-favorite Captain Tsubasa 3 on the Super Famicom. She went to Koei and helped shape the soundtrack of Dynasty Warriors with Yamagishi, and then formed Kajiya Music alongside Yamagishi and Nitta. Nakabai returns to the NINJA GAIDEN franchise with a track for NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound.

Ryuichi Nitta

Ryuichi Nitta started his gaming career at Tecmo, where he co-composed the original Ninja Gaiden alongside Keiji Yamagishi (using Yamagishi’s sound driver), and then went on to compose the soundtracks to Ninja Gaiden 2 and Solomon’s Key 2. After his time at Tecmo and Banpresto, Nitta became a freelancer and founded his own music company, Kajiya Music, with Keiji Yamagishi and Kaori Nakabai (of Ninja Gaiden 3). Nitta returns to the Ninja Gaiden franchise with two tracks for Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound.

Hitomitoi

Known for her “aphrodisiac-like” airy and coquettish vocals, Hitomitoi delivers urban pop with a distinctive charm. She has collaborated with numerous artists both domestically and internationally and works across various fields, including composing for films and leading the neo-doo-wop band Jinatana & Emeralds. In March of this year, she released TelepaTelepa, her first original album in approximately eight years. The project features collaborations with a diverse range of international talents, including Jack Tatum of Wild Nothing from Virginia, USA. As she continues to connect with artists from around the world, her creative expression keeps expanding on a global scale.
