Little is known about Kouji Niikura besides the fact that he composed the soundtrack for the 1997 cult-horror classic 'Clock Tower' (1997, PS1). Niikura utilizes very electronic/techno beats for his suspenseful moments, but can also show a great ambient quality to his music. He is probably best known for 'Scissorman's Theme', which accompanies the masked murderer wherever he goes. He also composed the music played in the Nintendo 64 game WCW/nWo Revenge
