    There are many reasons people may not have taken you up on your $4.99 offer, Robert. Sounds like a good deal but maybe they are looking for a different singing style, classical, jazz, pop, etc) and they look for that on YouTube. And of course, they may find what they want on YouTube for free Example: I play guitar. I find free tutorials for almost any song I want to learn to play! When I was younger I spent many hours transcribing solos. The tutorials are quick and free. There are many things good and bad about the digital computer age. I think you know what I mean. Things change and we have to figure out how to evolve to stay relevant, if that is even possible.

    I don't think you need any training. You sound very professional and natural. Great sound. I love it! Post more songs. Very beautiful voice.

    Good job on this song, good quality. ! I love this song, too. Last few times I have heard James sing this and other songs live it was horrible. Something is going wrong with his voice. It is very harsh sounding and off pitch. Plus, you can't understand a word he is singing. It sounds as if he is singing continual ah vowels to me. Maybe he will get it worked out soon. I hope so because I love Dream Theatre.

    Felipe,  damn bro, you killed Man on a silver mt!  I don't think it needs any tweaking.  Great job.  Your voice sounds like one register from top to bottom and I like the way you can hit the closed vowels high in you range. It adds a lot of color and quality to your sound.  Reminds me of Tamplin.  You have made enormous improvement! Great job!

      You know me, I am the guy who was suppose to write about high level singers and never got around to it.  Lol  I sent you the John Cowan videos, too.  The way you are developing the ability to do the oo's and ee vowels up high is really paying off (u are not sacrificing the natural beauty of the vowel). Your words are understandable and well balanced.  Some singers do the narrowed ah vowel continually and to me it kills any quality the song could potentially have.  Also, you can't understand the words or lyrics.   You have a great balance going between light/darkness  and it is very effective.  You are definitely on the right track now.

    Rob,  I saw a comment by another member asking about singing books.  I have been working from the Barbara Docsher and Berton Coffin books.  They have really helped me a lot.

      Cool.  Does your book teach black metal type vocal technique?

      We wouldn't refer to that as being really a "technique" as much as a style. Techniques can be applied to all styles. But more to the point, the book and course teach several distortions and effects. Three of the distortion techniques would apply to your genre, yes.

      I also recommend that you get the course and training content where you can watch the videos. there are videos of me demonstrating the screams that Im referring to and instructions on how to do it.

      There are three options here:

      Sounds like a great program.  I will check it out.  The two books I mention earlier took me awhile to understand but they are working real well for me at this point.  I think Coffin uses colors for his vowel modifications, too.  Anyway, thanks for the info.
