Shinji Hosoe is a Japanese video game musician. Hosoe was not interested in music until Junior High where he got a synthesizer and began to play on it and joined a cover band. He attended the Japan Electronics Collenge in 1985 for computer graphics and graduated in 1987. In August 1985 at age 18, he started working for Namco, testing music for some of their games. A couple years down the road, he started composing music for some of their arcade games, and eventually some arrangements for their PS1 games. He also formed many units, most notably Sampling Masters, which consists of Ayako Saso, Nobuyoshi Sano and Takayuki Aihara. He left in March 1996 and started working at Arika the next month alongside Saso and Aihara who wanted to continue working with him. In February 2000, he left Arika and founded SuperSweep, a company that produces music and sound for games. Hosoe still composes music for games to this day.
