S.S.H. [埼玉最終兵器] (Saitama Saishuuheiki - Saitama's Ultimate Weapon) is a Japanese musician. He used to primarily remix video game music and has become quite well known amongst internet video game music communities.
He has covered songs from a variety of games and series, including Thunder Force, Tales of Phantasia, Super Robot Wars, Atlach=Nacha, Megami Tensei, Ragnarok Online, and Unreal Tournament.
However, he is one of the few *doujin* artists who actually started working in the video game music industry. He did the soundtracks to games like Lost Child or Sixty Nine 2 and made official arrange albums for the Atelier series.
True to his influences, he tends to a guitar and synth-heavy sound in his music, which can be classified typically as instrumental metal; some of his songs occasionally include brief musical quotations of songs from renowned metal bands, primarily Iron Maiden.
His medley of Castlevania songs, entitled 「悪魔城ドラキュラ～The Quest～」 (Akumajou Dracula~The Quest~) features a musical quotation of Iron Maiden's The Trooper (timestamp 5:02). In another piece, Ys4`The Dawn of Ys, he re-arranges the song with Iron Maiden's The Evil That Men Do.
