 Early life and education 
When Go Ichinose was in kindergarten, he was forced by his parents to attend a music class and a swimming school. He did not like the swimming classes at the swimming school. Finally, after some time, he did not have to attend the swimming classes anymore. He stayed in the music classes but couldn't proceed to higher levels because he never finished his homework. Ichinose started playing piano. However, he did not practice music pieces he didn't like until his junior high. He started to get into video game music around this time. He started practicing tracks from a record from his childhood on his piano. 

 Career  
In 1993, Ichinose started working at Game Freak part-time to study programming and to get qualified. His study of programming didn't have any progress because instead of studying programming, he used to make music. He made music for Pokémon Gold and Silver in 1999 and has become a member of the sound team after that.
