Heigo Tani (谷丙午), also known as Wall5, is a music producer of house and techno tracks affiliated with Spacewalker Records. He is notable for his contributions to Sonic Adventure 2 by arranging and producing all five vocal tracks composed by Fumie Kumatani and performed by Everett Bradley (all of which relate to anti-hero Shadow the Hedgehog). Game-related projects outside Sega include a Space Invaders remix album (as half of the unit Co-Fusion) and a track for Beatmania IIDX 11th Style: IIDX RED.

Outside of video games, Tani has also composed many of the tracks for the anime series "Air Gear". He also produced the soundtrack for anime series Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's as the lead member of the Wall 5 Project. He was assisted by Yutaka Minobe, another Sega associate, throughout the series.

Tani has recently returned to Sega games as a contributing artist for four Amusement Vision titles: Kurohyou: Ryu ga Gotoku Shinshou, Super Monkey Ball 3D (with Wall5 Project), Binary Domain and Yakuza 5.
