    Fortunately for me, the overseas students at my UK university were usually very interested in improving their English,

    And which university is this now?

    And if you are using any kind of social media, you are going to have to get past trolls, anyway -- people who instinctively want to obstruct your progress for whatever reason (usually their own sense of failure). 

    And dose this include the jimmyshitforbrains bullyboy club as well?

  2. yes but bad practise due to ignorace can only lead to tail of the dog now sillly little man

    The singer is the artist, a bit like a chef or painter. The chef isn't going to ask you how he can improve his recipe -- he is going to try to "educate your palette", and the painter isn't going to ask you how she should mix her colours. That is what makes them artists and not simply technicians.

    Another walter mitty again silly knocker! really; your only fooling your self for the following reasons.....

    Chefs spent years learning differnet meals/ dishes/ recipies in the same way that singers did learning melodies to be able to mix and match them and come up with there own recipe that one could call tallant

    Once you know what style you want, then the question of controlling your voice takes shape,

    but you have it the wrong way round gain (as ever)

    har har! thats a good one MD! I will add it to my list of quotes for the forseable future

    The point is that he is paying attention to his voice. Marking differences. He has just as much right to go into his experiments as you have in your rants against that other forum and the emperors clothes and such. Even when we are discussing important things like breath control you end up making a video and mocking those who are helping. All of this stuff is not BS it is what people do to improve. Experiment, find different sounds and learn how to use them to your advantage.

    You are right MD, he is perfectly in his right to fool him self and fool his dream-trip-shit-wonder-bee-do-dar-fk-wit-walter-mitty freinds (no crime commited theres). He is also entitled to post false and bad vocal training practices (some of them deamed as dangeruss) for anyone starting out and new to singing for them to become tail of the dog them selfs (again no crime comminited again).

    They are also in there writes for a group to have a sub forum where a group of jimmyshitforbrains bullyboy who have never worked in music before never sang publicly either and never undergone any form of musical tranining what so ever  can pray on the new singers and claim to be experts and there to help them and offer ill advice simpaly because they dont like the face as they sang outside of the box and where better then there meesaly scum, or where unable to tell the difference between being to flat while singing or the cheap recorder they used was distorted, any more then jo blogs down the pub! (again no crime commited hear)

    But I am also in my righs to question the naritve ;)

  5. But thats just madness MD! try anything at the drop of a hat like singing dehydrated and singing off of food that makes you sound and feel bad when we know better to avoid this kind of thing for good vocal health!

    Now I know Cosmic Dolphin would say "no dont give him any ideas" But to to the point of the original topic. 3 things we should avid eating for singing are. dairy, fat and sugar

    Now I know he will go off on one of those hikes now and scoff his face with custard cream cakes and a deep fried mars bar and then come back and post a song about it

    Then why bother commenting at all? Just because you cannot understand why something would be helpful to others does not mean it is not helpful. It only means that you do not understand.

     

    Well to be quite honest MD I saw the first line and though ow god its deja vu time again round and round in circles like the last time, that time about water now this time about food, but its only him and him alone that practaces this crap man ship and unkown to the vocal world that you speak of but still as of yet failed to provide the emperor's new clothes.

    Ow very well if you insist, I will review his singing later on tonight

    If it is ok for you to make this kind of comment, then it is ok for me to say, "why don't you just give it a try and keep the comments to yourself".

    But I will not do that. That would be rude.

    Tail of the dog now MD! tail of the dog

    I don't understand the point of this thread?

    Pretending to be someone else is not really going to make you go anywhere? And if you do (Which in itself it's rare), you get caught eventually.

    Just one question, why?

    Why, if you cant beet em join em.

    Though I explained how the world now works regarding live singers in my previus posts

    Pretending to be someone you are not, see my post on the barry white tribute act from the agency in blackpool

    Listen to the difference in voice quality between Willy Nelson and Elvis Presley.  Willy Sings Bright and Twangy. It almost sounds as if he is singing through  his nose or the front of his face. This is one style of singing that you can adopt.

    you heared my cover of its a raining men and staying alive. Did that not sound bright enough for you?

    My new motto is "If you do not sound good with your voice....Use someone else's". Not from electronics but use their mannerisms when you sing. They may be doing something that you have not been doing.

    And do you honestly think this is not happening! I refere to the same agency again, but this time a barry white tribute act.

    With the padding behind him would indicate he is in a recording studio and you can see a dynamic mic, but he is a good 2 feet away from it! that would not pick up very well, so dose that not kind of give the game away really that he is not singing into the mic, also there is no pop filter present on the mic, nearly all studios have one, also when he sings "making it mine"  in the chorus, the word mine is sang on a D5 and dragged out for 2 bars, and look at him in the video, at that point he crowches his head into his sholders and still sounds grand.

    so

    1. he is singing to far away from the mic for it to sound proper

    2. no pop filter 

    3. singing long high note with poor allinment

    So if one was in a recording studio why would they go to the trobble of dubbing the sound when its all there and all there and all they have to do is plug there camera into mixer desk station, why go to a recording studio and dub the sound. is he not at home with a fake stage setup and has not even been to a recording studio to do this dubbed sound. That is the logic to why I think it is someone ells voice and not his

    If you have the choice go with the better equipment. You still have to have basic singing skills if you are going to sing live. And if you do not want to sing live then why are you on this forum at all? Others are here to improve and get legit reviews.

    well come on it obvius why he choices to record with proper equipment! because he sell him self online as a singer and a teacher. The reason I posted it hear was to see if anyone could spot the different voices from one song to another

    The quality of sound equipment is not in question. The quality YOU can produce without electronics is. Basic Pitch Matching, tone control and song delivery is. All of which can be improved.

    Well you ask Felipe then why he posts vidoes of him singing with thosonds if not 10 of thosonds dollars worth of equipment and why he dose not just use the recorder from a 9.99 moble phone out of wallmark or a 1.99 head phones plugged into his computer?

    Some of them MAY do that  but they are also dancing and putting on some kind of a show or are otherwise Eye-Candy. They are not doing that on the road to stardom. They maybe doing that AFTER the money or the name is made, but not before. The Agents have to have some kind of reason to believe you are going to be making them money or they are NOT going to represent you..

    This is the agency I was looking at. Now have a look at this guy pranging about on stage and say yes there is no way he can sing with proper breath support and alinment as the sound has to be dubbed. BUT NO HE HAS NOT (as you said) made it to the big time yet! he is just another joe bloggs pubs and clubs and wedding singer, going along with the way the world works. Never heard him live so I can not comment but I am sure the main stream (including the agencies) will from an opnion of his singing going off of his video

     And if you do lip-sync, then you have the problem of the visual experience 

    I think you are missing the point! and that is they all do it, they all dub the sound from there video and replace it from sound from a recording studio. as long as you sing the right words at the right time then I dont see how anyone one will notice
