Golden Voice Oy was a Finnish dubbing/voice-over company that operated during the late '80s and '90s and dubbed several animations that were released on VHS and couple of them on Television. Their works have at various times been released by Octagon Invest, Sesam Video, Backlund & Co (Which is now known as Future Film). Golden Voice dubbed a large amount of both American and Japanese animations that were somewhat unconventional at the time, and though the level of their translation efforts were remarkably good the actual acting in their dubs has been heavily criticized. 
 
The classic Golden Voice cast is sometimes referred to as "the Hopeanuoli cast" after their work on Ginga Nagareboshi Gin, by people and fans who don't necessarily know their names.

Points of criticism
The company, was found by actor Pertti Nieminen in 1989. The company was located in the town of Vihti. Their first work is unknown, but especially in 1989 and 1990 the company did plenty of different cartoons and a couple of anime shows. Golden Voice has received principally mixed to negative opinions, mostly for the overall quality of the voice acting. Their work was reportedly at times affected by limited resources and rushed schedules and they originally had a limited cast of 3-4 actors but later managed to have 9 actors which helped them do their job more properly.

Despite these issues, the company still impressed major studios and the major Oy PVP Voice Ab contacted them to collaborate with them to dub Disney's DuckTales and this is widely considered to be their greatest efforts. The amount of actors was 5 during this time and all of them played both main characters and additional voices in every single episode dubbed. They also appeared in several other Disney films like The Jungle Book, The Aristocats and other projects helmed by Pekka Lehtosaari.

The most popular work they have made was the aforementioned Ginga Nagareboshi Gin which was dubbed in 1989, and the job was given by Backlund & Co (now Future Film).

After the companies founder Pertti Nieminen died in 2007, the company changed its profession to Consulting Services and is still named Golden Voice.

On this day now, the company has mixed opinions, like their follower Agapio Racing Team.
