Biography

Kazumi Totaka (戸高 一生, Totaka Kazumi; born August 23, 1967) is a Japanese video game composer and sound director who is best known for his various compositions in many Nintendo games. He occasionally does voice acting as well, most notably voicing Yoshi from the Mario series, and Captain Olimar from the Pikmin games. He also directed the development of Wii Music. Totaka has worked for Nintendo since 1990. One of his most famous compositions is the 19-note "Totaka's Song", which is left as an easter egg in many games he has composed for.
