I liked it some.

I really like the way you start off, I think you could use some better intonation on your high notes. It sounds good but it could sound even better I'm betting. Also you have a very RnB style voice and I prefer more of a punk rock kinda vibe. You sound almost like a classically trained singer and I just feel as though your voice could sound a bit more poppy with some sound color variation. I would just play around with imagining how you sing differently and don't listen to how you sound as an indicator of how well you're singing, try to forget you're even singing but don't zone out and remember to enjoy yourself.

China Girl David Bowie Cover
Collin571 replied to Jeremy Mohler's topic in REVIEW YOUR SINGING - SHARE YOUR SINGING
I liked the distortion on this. Found it interesting that it most always started on the letter I which is a glottal attack. You went a little soft on it after the first time around 1:59, I know those are the high notes but would've sounded great if you kept some of that compression. -
Thanks for the comments JavaStorm, I wanted to have the last chorus sound forceful and a bit strained but in an emotional kind of way not a lacking support kind of way.

That is good advice Jon thank you. I think I know what parts you're talking about with the breath running out and sounding spoken not sung, could you give me an example so I know for sure? There was some falsetto sprinkled in but it was intentional. As for the chest voice/vs head voice thing I'm not sure I was trying to keep a consistent timbre not sure if it's head voice or chest I feel very little vibration when I sing (unless I sing nasally) so it's hard to tell where the resonance lies. I do have a heady belty voice that I can use but sounds iffy at times and I can use pure light headvoice but it's not as good as it has been.
-
Also I need help with my mic if anyone can, I can't find a good balance of gain for the high notes and Idk if it's my equipment or my settings.

Review For A Few Covers I did recently
Collin571 replied to Timothy Liu's topic in REVIEW YOUR SINGING - SHARE YOUR SINGING
you have good head voice. Also I love how you used an aggravated exhale rather than the eff word on time of your life lol. Stylistically you're going to need to learn how to anchor your sound deeper in your chest as you ascend in pitch if you want to sound powerful or belty.- 7 replies

Mother I Miss You
Collin571 replied to Musikman7002's topic in REVIEW YOUR SINGING - SHARE YOUR SINGING
That was nice. Your voice has kind of an 80s feel or maybe it was just the song. I think it was good but it was missing a dramatic element, a difference in intensity might do the trick. Idk what it was but it was almost too stable like there was no risk involved. Please take everything I say with a grain of salt cause I have overstepped my boundaries in the past and my opinion is quite amateur. -
Go the Distance - Michael Bolton
Collin571 replied to Javastorm's topic in REVIEW YOUR SINGING - SHARE YOUR SINGING
Your tone gave me goosebumps a few times in the beginning. I can hear you have a strong chest voice but were holding back from breaking into head voice during this song which is a good objective but you need just a little bit more support for some of the belts. As far as sounding like Micheal Bolton goes you nailed that nail straight on the head but your lack of control took me out of the song a couple times. As soon as you get more command over your voice I would listen to your songs on the daily. -
thanks Gnee! I didn't notice the pitch issues till the 2nd time listening through. You're not talking about the vocal fry right with the distortion I've been drifting in and out of vocal fry coincidentally in my singing lately. Luckily I'm going to be getting TFPOS really soon so i'll go from being a badass to being a super duper ultra badass.

Yes it totally becomes so much easier! Just don't try to chase after completely effortless singing I was doing that for a while and it was not to my benefit lol.

Cues are still a bit iffy. This was first take. Pretty proud of the direction I'm taking with my singing! Hope you guys enjoy and any constructive criticism is appreciated.

That's smart clean tones are more enjoyable imo as well. Try what I was talking about in the other thread about trying to keep it down, I was singing this way the other day at work and when i hit the vowel it came out loud clear and pangy with lots of vibrato and I wasn't even expecting that. It was like woah I was trying to make myself sound less loud and ended up sounding more loud when I opened up for the vowel.. I'm guessing it's cause I had more resonance than I thought I was going to have on that note.

Tight! Good flow I feel like at some parts you could've broke through the tension with some distortion and a higher intensity. I think a higher intensity will help you make this song sound edgier. Are you going as loud as you can on this or are you holding back some?

No I took choir all four years of highschool though. And made it into chamber choir lol my voice was terrible back then though, I just know from experience what your voice starts off sounding like when you first start recording is not the same as what it will be with practice and plenty of changes. -

I'm not trying to download it, I trust you but it's a good policy we have about uploading rather than downloading. Put it on soundcloud my freend. -
Back to Black
Collin571 replied to Bevin Hernandez's topic in REVIEW YOUR SINGING - SHARE YOUR SINGING
you have good compression, flow and placement when impersonating Amy Winehouse, I could hear your voice pull into vocal fry on 'me and my head held high' on 'and'. Do more impersonations and cover more songs and your voice will continue to get better. -
Cast- Walk Away
Collin571 replied to 2 cats in a dust bin's topic in REVIEW YOUR SINGING - SHARE YOUR SINGING
well the supports not terrible for what you're presenting but the flow for a completely resonant sound is going to be much harder until you train your diaphragmatic muscles. -
Cast- Walk Away
Collin571 replied to 2 cats in a dust bin's topic in REVIEW YOUR SINGING - SHARE YOUR SINGING
you're sound is extremely mouthy and unpleasant. Too much involvement of the mouth and improper support. You need to work on either dropping the accent or embracing it, vocal twang exercises might help. You can probably make yourself sound good with training and practice but you've got a long way to go.
