Biography
[edit]Hiroaki Tsutsumi was born in Tokyo on June 5, 1985, and began his musical career when he first started playing the guitar at the age of 14 after many of his peers started playing the instrument themselves.[1][2][3] At the age of 17, he won a guitar contest, which became the reason he decided to become a professional musician.[3] After practicing under guidance from Yoshihisa Suzuki and graduating from high school, he attended and later graduated from Kunitachi College of Music.[1][2]
Before graduating, Tsutsumi worked a bit with Masaru Yokoyama, who influenced Tsutsumi to try composing for other works.[3] In 2013, Tsutsumi was put in charge of composing for the first time with the anime television series for the Hyperdimension Neptunia media franchise.[1] In 2019, the anime adaptation of Dr. Stone was nominated for best anime soundtrack at the Crunchyroll Anime Awards, which Tsutsumi co-composed.[4] In 2021, the Jujutsu Kaisen TV series won as the anime of the year at the Crunchyroll Anime Awards, which Tsutsumi also co-composed.[5][6]
