Yuji S.

Yuji Suzuki is a Japanese composer and musician. He was born in Tokyo, Japan in November 11, 1963.

Around 1988, Suzuki joined Data East, with Soccer League: Winner's Cup being his debut work. Because he worked with other Data East sound staff such as Shogo Sakai, Takafumi Miura, and Masaaki Iwasaki, and other composers, so it's difficult to tell which specific songs he worked on in each game. During his career at Data East, he composed the music for about 15 games, and worked on a range of platforms including the NES, Game Boy, and TurboGrafx-16. Suzuki departed Data East around 1991.

While Suzuki is no longer active in the game industry, he continues to compose and perform music.

Music Development

GB/NES

Yuji would write his music and then give it to Shogo Sakai. Sakai would then enter the music in assembly on an MSX computer and converted to the Data East sound driver.
