Origa, the Russian-Japanese voice behind Ghost in the Shell

A singer whose ethereal voice bridged Russian folk and anime soundtracks.

For her signature sound, start with 'Inner Universe'. For something more stripped back, try 'Beryoza'.

Her opening theme 'Inner Universe' for Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex became an anime landmark, blending Russian and English lyrics with Yoko Kanno's production. That song alone gives her a permanent place in soundtrack history. You can hear that same haunting quality in tracks like 'God's Judgement' from her solo catalog.

She moved from Moscow to Japan in 1995 and released her self-titled album in 2000. After 'Inner Universe' in 1999, she kept recording solo work like 'Origin' in 2004 before leaving Japan in 2006.
