Raj Ramayya is a singer and musician based in Japan.
His family is from South India, but he was born and raised in Saskatchewan, Canada. His father wanted him to be a doctor, so after 6 years of medical school Raj became a physician, but, never practised and instead became a professional musician. He moved to Japan where he began his music career as a session singer on a compilation CD by Fuji Pacific, and offers followed.
Ramayya was featured on the Captain Funk album Songs of the Siren (2000 Billboard Top 10)), and this brought the singer to the attention of Kanno Youko, who used Ramayya on the soundtrack for the anime series Cowboy Bebop and Wolf's Rain.
"Her label actually tracked me down after they heard that CD," Ramayya told website Rakuen's Requiem in 2004.
He is in a band called The Beautiful Losers, leaving his former name Shiva Blue on hiatus.
He also has a side project as a DJ under the name Bhang Lassi (which he started doing the soundtrack for his brother's documentary film) and released their first album Real Refresher on October 26, 2006.
Ramayya also does voice over and singing work for anime series and video games.
Some of his most notable works include Shenmue 2, Resident Evil Dead Aim, Steel Battalion, Gungrave, Cowboy Bebop, Wolf's Rain, Bloody Roar 4, and also appeared in Beatmania IIDX, in collaboration with producer Furukawa Tatsuya (known by most fans as good-cool), as well as appearing on GuitarFreaks and Drummania with the song "Bobby Sue and Skinny Jim"
Some of his works include the vocals for "Strangers" for Wolf's Rain, and the vocals of Ask DNA for Cowboy Bebop: Knockin' On Heaven's Door, as well as the lyrics for Cosmic Dare (Pretty With a Pistol), also of the same movie. He has also done music for TV and radio commercials in Japan, his most popular song is for Volvic water which is a cover of the Thompson Twins song Hold Me Now.
