葉山宏治


Koji Hayama (葉山宏治, Hayama Kouji, born on August 4, 1965 in Yokohama City, Kanagawa, Japan) is a self-taught videogame music composer and independent artist that, after a turbulent introduction to the industry, became widely known for his score to 超兄貴 (Chou Aniki) in 1993. After composing a hilarious original album and vocal single dedicated to the game, he entertained audiences with an energetic live show and appearances at the Game Music Festival series. He has also scored the majority of the other instalments to the 超兄貴 (Chou Aniki) series, releasing further original albums, best collections, and live videos dedicated to them. While largely preserving the Aniki style, Hayama has produced several solo albums, 超葉山～兄貴番外地 (Chou Hayama ~ Aniki Bangaichi), 筋属バット一号 (Kinzoku Bat Ichigou), 帝国 (Teikoku), 明日は晴れる (Ashita wa Hareru), and 元気を出せよ！！ (Genki o Dase yo!!). He has also performed two famous duets with 國府田マリ子 (Mariko Kouda) for the TwinBee PARADISE series. In the area of instrumental game music, his biggest achievement is the score to the racing game Gran Chaser, where he produced a mixture of rock- and jazz-based themes. On Front Mission 3, he composed half the music and produced some orchestral music. In recent years, Hayama has focused on producing in-game music rather than original albums. He retained his quirkiness with scores to the eccentric games Saru Get You 2 and 吉野家...
