I agree... Totally amazing and natural. I love this channel and vocal course 👌🙏🎶

@Sage Malachi bot 🤣

hehe

"Sing like you're gonna poop yourself."

I actually went to poop after i tried this 🤣 But he's right

I sent the link to this video to my sister who is not at all interested in singing but who gets constipated fairly often.

🤣🤣🤣🤣you want to sing better? Learn how to poop

I second this.

Yes

Yes!! I have thought this as well 😂😂😂

OMG THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT

This is awesome, thanks for the breakdown!

@@chrisliepe Thanks to you, this gives me a lot to practice. I didn't know i compressed my vocals the bad way, thats why my vocal chords get sore and tired so easily.

Thanks for doing this!

Thanks for the layout

Thank you!

JonahDeroy AND he took a sip!! Satisfaction achieved.

@@breckh8475 It was A LOT of anticipation.

I came here to say this.

That my first thought when I started watching this! I had to go back and check if it was actually a mic.

JonahDeroy Hahahahah

what an oddly accurate comparison

I love how he jokes without ever laughing. The singing at the end! 🤣 "Teeth!" "I fell down and got a buuuuuuump!"

@@ross311 Bob Ross with vocal fry. Gold!

Finding my mixed voice was a happy accident! 😊

Lmao! Well i bet if his studio is set up.like mine you couldn't hear anything outside lol be glad we are vocalists and not serial killers bwhahahaha

i would love to shift to become his neighbour hahaha

@@christianstorm8854 I'm looking at soundproofing/suppressing my room so I can record at home. Any tips for a dude on a budget?

Alex Yodson Hey, there are many options depending on how you want to set up a home studio. You can look on eBay for fire retardant acoustic/studio foam as it is cheaper then most places. For around $50-$70 There are also videos that you can see to make patterns on your wall with the foam meaning set up depending on if your doing vocals/guitar/percussion. And go to guitar center or the like and look for a recording kit. Usually around $100 or so for a decent set up. Once you progress you can upgrade to better gear. Hope this helps.

Hahaha

His course is awesome though.

Seriously though, such great course material.

But, theres only one video right?? or is there a way to "unlock" the others? XD

Beto Osé theres three and they’re great

Yeah so true

Sir I needed to help You can help my Channel 😁😁 Because I am not Wheel

Dude same here. It really helps.

Awesome, thank you!

wow, Ren you awesome

:O clash of titans Chris and Ren both here.

@@chrisliepe I need to get a vocal coach. I have some training and years of experience but need to clean up my voice for recording sessions. I want to make sure I am not causing damage and able to sing aggressive and raspy like Corrnell and Plant.

So fun to find this comment now 😃

Well what you did wrong is you went straight from step 1 onto number 2.

Looking at you Tristan In all fairness you have to remember that most of them are professional vocal coaches making KZfaq videos and not KZfaq vocal coaches. So much more money to be made giving private lessons. It's not practical teach on KZfaq as a job. Once you put your lessons on KZfaq no one needs to pay you to teach them.

@@alexyodson5749 Yeah, no. These are tips from a vocal coach, not actual training. What you see in these videos is not at all what he does with his clients.

Kardavox Academy does reacts but he also breaks down a lot of how the vocalists do certain techniques

YES... If you find value here! ...Imagine what's in the courses!! :)

YES! right on!

:)

Thanks so much! Ya, it's exciting. Glad you're enjoying the content man!

That’s so great to hear! Here’s another video I enjoyed doing, dealing with some of those same things: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qsWnndhqs9vRnp8.html

YESSSSSS!!!! :) !!!

I do exactly the same on the bicycle xD or when I'm outside with the dog and no one's near ;P

Nice dude! Trial and error is a huge pain in the ass! :') I've been slowly trying to work up to screaming, started with just a lot of clean singing practice, then less extreme "rock scream" / mildly distorted vocals, then working on something closer to death/black screams, but man it's difficult to get it consistently. Huge props for being self-taught with shit.

Thank you!

haha

Thanks!

This is great to hear!

For sure! These are some quality vocal lessons

UPDATE???

You’re so welcome, I’m glad you had some awesome breakthroughs!

Thanks! I'll be doing more on mixed voice for sure. I'll make sure and touch on this!

Yes, this is something I should have maybe touched on. I'll be talking about this in a video I post later this week as well!

@@chrisliepe I'm at 12:26 in the vid and I'm gonna have to go to bed and resume tomorrow, but this is VERY exciting that you are a vocal coach on KZfaq who is actually really teaching us how to make distortion/grit instead of making a clickbait title where they demonstrate it and then refer us to their program. Honestly, just the anticipation of the thought that you are going to actually show me how to make grit for FREE, out of the kindness of your heart and desire to help people, makes me want to PayPal you $50+ and I'm not even 100% sure yet that I will know how to do the grit after I am able to watch the rest of the video.... but even just the IDEA that you care enough to show us how to really do this makes me want to throw money at you in appreciation. And I'm unemployed right now!!! I don't expect anyone to believe this, but I can sing just like Steve Perry and Michael Jackson and Jason Mraz and I can even do an imitation of Smokey Robinson by making my larynx super high and using it (instead of air modulation) for vibrato. I can sing like Layne Staley of Alice IN Chains BUT I CANNOT MAKE ANY GRIT/Distortion!!! So this video is EPIC!!! Thank you so much, Cris! I cannot wait to resume it tomorrow evening! Regarding clearing the scratchiness (prior to your video about it being posted), perhaps Roger Love's technique would be helpful for DTuned? Talk like Yogi Bear saying "Hey hey, boo boo!" with your Larynx super super low. (Look it up if you aren't old enough to know what Yogi Bear sounds like). I ASSume that lowering the larynx like this is probably stretching the vocal chords out kind of like stretching a tight tendon, but I have not idea what I am talking about and am probably wrong! :) I'm really concerned about damaging my voice, so I'm wondering why does DTuned have a scratchy voice from doing these exercises that are supposed to involve no pain or fatigue? Hey, why do Chris Cornell (RIP) and Richie Kotzen (and the singer from the band Big Wreck to a lesser degree) all sound so similar? Are they using the same technique to make their grit? Like, maybe the technique they use to make grit is to constrict and close up the back of their throat (like above the base of the tongue) and so they sound almost the same as each other? I'm also suspecting that this is how Steven Tyler of Aerosmith does that scratchy "Ya ya yow" thing that he does because it sounds really constricted to me. And Angus Young of AC/DC sounds even more constricted. In fact, I can almost get his sound. Maybe this could be a video if you think it is worthy? "Distortion: Why Chris Cornell and Richie Kotzen sound the SAME" :) Thanks for being awesome and giving us this gold, man. It's amazing and greatly appreciated. I mean, I can sing all of Michael Jackson's "Man In the Mirror" (though it is iffy after the modulation) but I can't do ANY of the grit. And when I do the 7 "woos" at karaoke my voice is shot for 2 or 3 days (I quit doing that in 2009!). Same thing happens if I do the "For MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" in Bohemian Rhapsody.... the voice is scratchy and anhilated for 2 days (I quit doing that years ago too). Let me know if this message was too short. :P

StratMatt777 This is a great comment! Cornell, Kotzen and Thornley all have very similar vocal tones/styles. Cornell barely opened his mouth half of the time which shows that I don’t think he was pushing a lot of air for volume. It seems like head “placement/resonance” is where their volume comes from. As far as the scratchyness goes, I get that if I try and do fry or glottal compression without warming my voice up first. Vocal warmups in my experience are critical. If you read about Myles Kennedy and his warmups, they are pretty extensive and he seems to have no vocal issues being on tour constantly. He doesn’t do as much compression now as he did with the Mayfield Four. Personally, I think if you are getting scratchyness or fatigue then you may be doing something incorrectly. I imagine Chris will weigh in here on all of this. Straining and pushing too much air past the folds seems to be the biggest culprits when it comes to fatigue and hoarseness. But I am only speaking from my own experience. I too am looking to get glottal compression into my toolbox so I am very thankful for these videos.

StratMatt777 thanks for the advice man. I think my throat is scratchy because I’ve just started this and this technique is hit or miss. I’m working on Man in the Box and have seen Ken Tamplins vid on that song. I’ve been singing for years but nothing really challenging like the rock metal stuff. Belting the A#4 in the chorus of Man in the Box is really challenging me and right now it’s totally clean

@@theophany1770 I appreciate your comment because you have scared me away from trying to do this exercise... I only got up to 12:26 in the video last night but my voice is a little bit hoarse and that freaks me out. In just the last 4 days I have happened upon 4 different guitarists giving the advice to stop trying to imitate other players because it will hold you back from finding your own voice.... I think I will apply that to my singing too and stop trying to be Layne Staley myself. HUGE LAYNE STALEY FAN HERE. HUGE! I've been singing for 30 years. When AIC "Dirt" was just released I was a teenager driving around in my car singing my ass off to it (but not with grit). I'm in Seattle, so when Layne Died I and a friend went to the unofficial public gathering at the fountain and the Seattle Center which served as an unofficial funeral type gathering to remember the guy. DON'T WRECK YOUR VOICE MAN. Maybe this is something we should work on with a vocal coach in person.... which I think is what Ken Tamplin says...

Thanks for reaching out! Yes, all singers certainly need rest...no one is exempt! That’s great you’re AWARE of some of your own rhythm - that’s an important key to discovering your own voice. Of course, there’s always more for us to learn and grow in and discover, too! Check out this video that talks about taking good care of our voices: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gst8eJeJudK4e3k.html
