Occupation(s)Composer

Ben Daglish (31 July 1966 – 1 October 2018) was an English composer and musician. Born in London,[2] his parents moved to Sheffield when he was one year old. He was known for creating many soundtracks for home computer games during the 1980s, including such as The Last Ninja,[3] Trap, Krakout, and Deflektor. Daglish teamed up with fellow C64 musician and prolific programmer Tony Crowther, forming W.E.M.U.S.I.C., which stood for "We Make Use of Sound in Computers". Daglish had attended the same school as Crowther.[4] Daglish mostly worked freelance but was employed by Gremlin Graphics for a couple of years.[5]
