Other than [[sonic:Sonic games|Sonic games]], he composed the song "Crying World," the theme for Round 6-1 in ''[[Ristar]]''.

Other than [[sonic:Sonic games|Sonic games]], he composed the song "Crying World," the theme for Round 6-1 in ''[[Ristar]]''. This was not known until [http://forums.sonicretro.org/index.php?act=findpost&pid=551114 a soundtrack album] ''[[Mega Drive Last Action Heroes]]'', containing music from various [[Mega Drive]] games, was released; [[Tomoko Sasaki]] is credited as the sole composer in the game's credits (although Ogata is credited under Special Thanks as "'''Masashi Ogata'''").
+
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.
  
−
Aside from [[Sega]] titles, he has also composed music for a few Japan-exclusive games developed by [[C's Ware]].
+
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:Sonic the Hedgehog - Remix|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).
  
−
Furthermore, from the notes of the CD albums ''Platina Selection'' and ''[[Radio DC]]'', it has been determined that Ogata's main company of affiliation following his work at [[Sega]] is [[AMS co., ltd]], as "Brand-new World" (originally produced in 1994) was said to be "Re-arranged...for AMS" in the latter album.  This, combined with his credit for ''[[Rez]]'', means that Ogata had been a part of [[AMS]] from at least late 1994 to late 2001.

Masafumi Ogata
Place of birth: Akita Prefecture, Japan
Date of birth: 1968-08-24 (age 55)
Role(s): Musician

Masafumi Ogata (尾形 雅史) is a former Sega composer.

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).
