Dude your a natural salesman! Don't know if you read expert secrets or took training but your hitting all of it!

Excited to see what your channel does to my voice over the next year.

My teacher has me doing vocal nasal resonance right now and wants me to sound like SpongeBob or Janice from Friends (oh. My. Gawd!). I feel and look absolutely ridiculous when doing it but then listening to a recording, it sounds way better than in my head. It’s just hard to do consistently. she says it’s because I’m a bass and this will help heighten my range and it’s completely foreign to me but actually sounds good to others. Thank you for this video. I believe it is helping.

I can see why this style of singing is so important, I’m a bel canto teacher and Mastering classical while studying contemporary has been a big game changer. Power 🤝 resonance

Vocal exercises really does magic to the voice! I'm so shookt until now ...I can belt past my passagio without breaking 😳

What a fantastic video lesson. My tone is usually all over the place, but after practicing this lesson it is much brighter, and the quality is much more even. Many thanks! Also bonus points for the Megadeth.

You literally have one of the most beautiful voices I've ever had!

I especially appreciate the historical videos showing your development. That's very instructive!

your transformation is incredible great job

I think this is a key thing for me to add to my voice, but will come in time. It’s like a layer added, however again I need to put these things into practice! Wish me luck

Very useful. In the past I've forced a placement more towards the front of my mouth for high notes and belting, which ends up feeling very tense with no control. I feel like if I work on this I can get consistent higher notes. Usually when doing singing excercises I can only go up to about E4/F4. but with this I was able to stretch that almost all the way to the top. I found that I was also more on pitch with this bright sound.

Doug, You are AMAAZING!!! I watched tons of videos about how to get loud and about twang/ping/mask and none of them was getting to the point and explaining perfectly how to do it. Thank you!!

It helped me to realize how to get a brighter,more nice sounding tone for sure, thanks. Usually i hate to hear myself when i played back, and i found that this might be the issue. I've done at least this "Hey Jude" and it sounded way better. Before knowing this i would be the one doing the incorrect Hey Jude...small progress, but i guess that's something hahaha By the way you have a great voice Doug. Even that High school clip, sure you knew waaay less technique than now but it still sounded like a good voice. But hearing you sing Stay now fucking blew my mind away. Well, big hugs from Brazil bro, great video.

Hey Zed, great video! Additionally, you add that bright, piercing sound to the deep, chest voice of yours in order to give a nice, clear tone that still has a great balance of robustness in it. Ultimately, the piercing sound is a great tool to avoid a dull, extremely dark tone and allow us to project clearly, but it is not the finished sound - the darker chest resonance needs to be added later on in order to balance it out.

Hi Doug! I've been following your lessons for a while and I wanted to thank you, I reaaaally improved my tone and technique thanks to you! Greetings from Spain! :D

Lack of clarity is often related to our personality. If you are shy and don't like to be noticed in public, you'll tend to swallow your words, speak in low volume, etc. Even the tongue will be more to the back than it should be if you wanted a clear tone. Free your voice! To do this, go in park when there is nobody at night and sing your head off. Or rent a studio or local where you can sing when you want and as loud as you want. I did both, and it has helped me a lot.

dude. i feel bad for anyone who didnt watched this gem. Thanks man.

Great video, you have a really nice approach. Subscribed 😊

Gracias hermano por esta valiosa informacion ...es útil para mi colocación vocal Bendiciones💟☮️

I definitely can feel the resonance leaving the chest I’m just full of mucus so I sound like a wood chipper 😂

Subscribed immediately 👍 Would like to hear some heavy metal lesson (no growling greety subgenres, just rockin' vocal technique ). That one caught my attention in a single moment. Many thanks!!!

You're amazing man!!! The video of 2011-2018 are inspiring. Hope I can improve mine like yours :)

You're a beautiful soul, thaaaaank you

Very useful, thank you from Thailand.

Thank you, it really helped..

Thank you so much

6:17 "MMMMMMMMMMMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM"

Are you not simply lifting the soft palate in order to block off the nasal exit ?

But how to make it feel smooth help me

Great stuff.

I would have a coach like you in France thanks for your sharing 💕

By the way, I always recommend your videos to my band's singer, and you've been pretty useful for him too! Our name is Walking with Wolves, in case you want to check us out! Love :D

Hey Doug love your vids This twang thing I can do it quite well but feels and sounds wrong haha 😂 But know it’s not I know you can do it on different degrees so maybe as you said you done yourself maybe I’m doing it to much but it does feel like the right placement but weird at the min 😂 but nice one Doug keep doing what you do man 👍

Hi thanks for sharing, and congrats on your improvement. I’m a bit confused though- your voice sounded good but the larynx move up and down still. Now should we bother about that larynx (adam’s apple) moving or as long as you sound good, then it’s ok? What confused me is other popular tutorials really pushes that idea of keeping larynx neutral. But If you want to project the voice more forward- the larynx also tends to move a little bit /slightly high in the process (in my experience). I mean it is not completely stationary.

I know this is like way later than the video was posted but can you please please please do the next episode because I would really like to learn it🥺

Wont you run into the danger of singing with too much twang or intensity?

Man, please keep that videos going. You are a great teacher!!!

It's the Ken Tamplin's La-ah.

So glad i found your channel. Awesome that you provide us with vocal tutorials. I got a question maybe u can help me, in one video you mentioned that u should not put much pressure on the voice. But when iam supporting my voice with my diaphram iam putting kinda pressure on it don´t i? It confuses me a little bit *sorry for bad english, from germany ;D

Great video!! Thank you so much😄 I have one question though. Is this the same placement that is used for mixed voice/ middle voice? Will this build mixed voice or do you sing in this placement in your chest and head voice as well to have a nice tone throughout your whole range?

thank you good job on this. I also really like hearing your vocal tranformation

Do a reaction to “Die For you” by backdrop violet!

When will the 5th episode come out?

I like this

Where is ep. 5?

YES!

Do you do video or Skype lessons!?!

Ken Tampline style :)

I do understand a bit kind of hard tho

Should we use twang throughout our entire range then?

Wow good vid and u had 2009 emo hair back in grad school lol😎

so why would we aim the sound at the back of the neck if your trying to achieve forward placement??

So Shroud is a Vocal coach now?

Can you react to mike bliss please？

Hey Doug, I just wanna ask you a question on how long did it take you to develop a nice tone of your voice?

Sir pls what do you recommend for me, I notice this lack of flexibility while singing on my head voice, and also loses control of air while singing there

My pharyngeal Voice sounds too nasaly or cringy, i mean, cant blend with the chest voice

4:12

So should i feel buzzing in the nose while singing? Also should i lift the soft palat always when singing?

Can someone verify that for me? In my case, I try to get the pharyngeal involved, it seems to automatically provide the support that I need. I usually try to flex the belly muscles to get the support and THEN sing, which could be the wrong way that all vocal coaches show. Am I right or wrong?

are mixed voice and pharyngeal voice interchangeable terms?
