Tsukasa Masuko might be the least appreciated, least documented video game composer relative to his body of work. His career stretches back four decades, beginning with arcade classics before expanding onto home consoles such as the Nintendo Entertainment System, SNES, TurboGrafx-16 and more. Today, Masuko is best known for his music from the Shin Megami Tensei games and the Devil Summoner series. This episode features music from BlaZeon, Tehkan World Cup, Dungeon Explorer and Kyuuyaku Megami Tensei, and briefly detours for a look at the formative years of Tecmo/Tehkan Electronics Co.
