Tohru Okada, the creator of the iconic sound that accompanies the PlayStation logo, has passed away at 73.
Japanese musician and music producer Tohru Okada has died of heart failure at 73, according to multiple Japanese-language sources. In the world of gaming, Okada is best-known for his work on commercials, particularly those for PlayStation. In fact, you likely know his most notable work--a very concise one--as it appears in countless PlayStation commercials. Not only did he compose and produce the music that played during several highly odd and memorable Crash Bandicoot ads in the '90s, as shown in the below video, but he also created the iconic sound that accompanies the appearance of the PlayStation logo.
