👴 Old Composer Reactions 🤘

That part when Yoko Kanno plays Inner Universe in the quarantine show as a tribute to Origa gets me every time. R.I.P. Origa.

[Seabas]

R.I.P. Origa

Inner Universe is one of my favorite anime OSTs of all time (easily top 3).

[bastiangugu]

Origa was a Russian singer named Olga Witaljewna Jakowlewa (Origa is the Japanese pronunciation). She also sang other songs from the OST of Ghost in the Shell SAC. You might like "Rise", one of the other OP of the series. She sadly passed away 2015 from lung cancer.
The other singer is Ben del Maestro, who also sang "The End of all things" from LOTR The Return of the King.
There is much more, great music from Yoko Kanno e.g. the OST from Cowboy Bebop.

[MoOrion]

three languages, Russian, Latin, and English. No Japanese in this Anime song. Yoko Kanno is legendary. I encourage you to listen to more of her stuff and then watch the Anime they go to.

[Dracolich]

Can't hear Origa. I'm crying everytime. My friend died from cancer the same mounth as Origa and we both like Origa from the bottom of our hearts. My heart burn when I hear Origa. We both played Allods Online where she is the main singer. It's just so sad and so great at the same time. Thank you that you discover Origa and we can listen to her voice again.

Best wishes from Origa fans.

Yoko Kanno really is the Japanese version of Hans Zimmer. She understands her score composing, and cherishes her relationships with other artists in other styles from her own.

[Gremalkin]

Yoko Kanno has done a lot of great music. It will be worth it to listen to more from her.

[larryfontenot]

Yoko Kanno's trademark is that she regards the language used for lyrics as one of the tonescapes in her compositions. Inner Universe is sung in Russian, Latin and English. Kanno usually gets a native speaker to sing the lead language, and the lyrics are usually written by a native speaker.

Another trademark is that if she can't find a language that fits the sound she wants, she'll fake one that's complete gibberish but sounds like it could be a real language.

[seancurtis]

I would love for more people to react to this song, Olga(Origa) deserved to have her name known worldwide, such a beautiful soul and talent taken far too soon.

[DwayneETowns]

This music has a lot of deep emotion. When I first heard it on Ghost in the Shell "stand alone complex" back in 2005 on cartoon Network adult swim. it touched my soul and made me tear up.

[AWSOMEPOSSUM]

Wow never expected this reaction. All the music in this anime is incredible.

[TheProEnderman]

Music that represents the future, from over 20 years ago= Timeless. Absolutely timeless. Such a beautiful song.

[otysafiry]

You know Yoko Kanno from Cowboy Bebop. She wrote "Tank!" (And all the music for the show) Her music is so extremely diverse in style she can do, and if I remember correctly she's all self taught besides playing piano growing up.

[CTyler]

This thing gives me chills every time. All the GITS SAC soundtracks are great.
Yoko never disappoints.

[timkai]

Boy oh boy, if you want to get some more Yoko Kanno suggestions, I can shoot some your way. I collected as much of her stuff as I could when I was younger.

Gosh, I forgot how good this track was. The Stand Alone Complex soundtrack is really phenomenal as a whole.

[Areiviel]

I miss Origa so terribly still today... I wonder if she had any tribute or celebration.. she has done so much for the anime and video games industry :c shes ICONIC and brought so much to the main stream/West.

[tenchraven]

This is a dangerous song to have in the car. :P

Origa is deeply missed. Russian, latin and english in this, and any time she worked with Yoko you knew it was going to be awesome. You've listened to some Cowboy Bebop, and now some GitS:SAC. Also from GitS:SAC Rise and Christmas Time in the Silent Forest.

[ramdalion]

on the "Heavy nordic sound" you mentioned i think its beacause its her vocals have the same pattern/sound as a compination of 1:"SAMI JOIK" (upper/northern part of Norway, Sweden, Finnland, and Russia called SAPMI ) and Swedish "Cow-calling" aka "Kulning" there are some videos on youtube ther are good examples of this.
atleast thats my oppinion ^^ on why it has a "nordic somberness" to it .
glad you liked it, personally its my all time favorite OST of all times thus far (have it saved at mobile phone and my mp3 player so i always can enjoy it)

liked and SUB <3 greatings from sweden! //J

[kobarsos]

Legendary Track for a legendary anime!
No words can describe the feelings!

[SmaRiss]

Yoko is so versatile. Her music is and will always be amazing.
