In the
Bemani series of
rhythm video games by
Konami, it appears that seemingly hundreds of different musicians and groups perform the songs. However, in reality there exists only a core group of a few dozen Konami artists, performing under
pseudonyms and forming new groups.
All names are in Western order (family name last).
This list does not include artists whose songs have been licensed by Konami, primarily through the
Dancemania division of
Toshiba-EMI.
