Tenmon (Japanese: 天門, Hepburn: TENMON, born 4 October 1971), also known as Atsushi Shirakawa (白川 篤史, Shirakawa Atsushi), is a Japanese music composer from Tokyo, Japan. He worked in the Nihon Falcom Corporation as one of the members of Falcom Sound Team J.D.K.. During his time with Falcom, he has composed much music for Falcom games, most notably Brandish.
Tenmon began collaborating with Makoto Shinkai, while working in Minori for the short film She and Her Cat. Tenmon created the soundtracks for Shinkai's subsequent films, including Voices of a Distant Star, The Place Promised in Our Early Days, 5 Centimeters Per Second, and Children Who Chase Lost Voices. As of 2019, Tenmon worked at CoMix Wave Films,
but no further information is available about what he has done with them since. The news indicate that he will not work with Shinkai for Suzume. He subsequently left CoMix Wave Films along with his producer in 2023.
Project Promise
In 2009, an album, titled "Promise" ("新海誠作品イメージアルバム「Promise」"), performed by the Eminence Symphony Orchestra, based in Sydney, Australia, was released, celebrating ten years of collaboration between Tenmon and Shinkai.
