Career
He has composed music for two Sonic games and one related CD (alongside Naofumi Hataya) and is notable for composing the opening theme song to Sonic CD, Sonic - You Can Do Anything (also known as Toot Toot Sonic Warrior). He is also credited under the alias "Gatao" (which is an anagram of Ogata) in the 8-bit version of Sonic 2, which contains a version of that song as the background music for the stage Green Hills Zone, almost certainly made before the version in Sonic CD. Other than Sonic games, he composed the song "Crying World," the theme for Round 6-1 in Ristar. In November 2011, it was revealed by Masayuki Nagao that Ogata composed the "theme song for Sonic Drift" and Nagao just arranged it.
Following his work at Sega, Ogata has gone on to be employed by AMS co., ltd., where he composed music for games developed by Yuke's, Ecole, and a few Japan-exclusive games by C's Ware. He remained there from at least late 1997 to late 2001.
He has also worked with Momo Michishita (better known as simply "momo") on occasion, as she provided the main vocals for "Brand-new World" from Sonic the Hedgehog - Remix (which Ogata arranged) and sang the ending theme of Death Crimson 2, "Maybe someday" (she also voiced the game's protagonist, Yuri Rosenberg).
