Katsuhiro Hayashi
From Sega Retro
Katsuhiro "Funky K.H" Hayashi (林 克洋) is a former Sega sound composer. He left around the same time as Koichi Namiki and Jouji Iijima, both guitarists from the now defunct S.S.T. Band, and would work with them (especially the former) on occasion.
While working at Sega, he was best known for composing the music for Quartet and SDI. Following his departure, he joined Media Rings and composed music for a few SNES titles. He then became the main composer of the Yukyu Gensokyoku series.
