Overview
Scitron & Art Inc. (サイトロン・アンド・アート株式会社) was a company known mostly for releasing video game music soundtracks, but was also for a time involved in software development. Later it was primarily involved with voice and music production.
Scitron & Art was established on August 8, 1986 as Digital Entertainment (デジタル・エンターテイメント) by Kazusuke Obi (小尾一介), a former A&R man at Alpha Records (YMO's record company) who also started Alpha's G.M.O. Records video game music label. He started Scitron & Art with members of Masanobu Endo's development company Game Studio. It was originally meant to "be like a sibling company of Game Studio, doing music-related things" and was based in the same building.
The interactive architecture division of Scitron & Art was acquired by DS Interactive, a subsidiary of Digital Garage, in May 2000. In 2001, the digital contents division was spun off into Scitron Digital Contents (サイトロン・デジタルコンテンツ株式会社), which was acquired by Happinet as a subsidiary in 2004. The business of Scitron Digital Contents was transferred to Happinet on April 1, 2006, and liquidation of the company was completed on September 20, 2006.
