Masayoshi Ishi (better known as Chamy Ishi) is a Japanese composer and sound designer. He started working for T's Music around 1991, and continues to work for them to this day.

Ishi got his start in music during high school when he saw YMO and was subsequently fascinated by music on computers. In 1989, he started playing keyboards and worked on programming. He has also performed with many artists, both in Japan and overseas. He has also worked with artists under his label Sweet II The Soul Label.

It appears his first game was the Genesis version of OutRun, which he worked on with Shinichiro Sato, and composed the Genesis-exclusive song Step On Beat. Ishi and Sato have worked on many projects together since.

Masayoshi has worked on several popular series of games including Reel Fishing, Cooking Mama, and Mario Party. In 2012, Ishi started receiving less music composition credits, and instead started to be more of a music director.
