Felipe Carvalho - Child in Time - Deep Purple Cover

[Felipe Carvalho]

Awesome song from one of the most badass lineups of all time, in my opinion.

Hope its sounding fine, as always my thanks in advance for everyone that gives a listen and if you can, drop a line or two .

Anyways, here it goes:

Great job Felipe. Awesome. :)

[akarawd]

I wouldn't change a thing, it sounds awesome and shows you have great control over your voice.

Great job Felipe

Than

[ronws]

I echo others. Absolutely well done, Felipe.

[Owen Korzec]

Sounds great!

Your voice sounds a little different than it usual does here. I dont know the reason, you probably would. But whatever it is I like it, it fits this song well.

Love the little tonal change at 2:32. I'm curious, were you in full control of that or did that just kinda happen by itself? Also love the distortion at 7:02 and how it bloomed out of a clean oo...made it more unexpected. Very cool effect.

Would be nice to hear the full ending. But I can understand why some have chosen to leave it out. I'd imagine it is not easy to do.

Anyways, again, great job. :)

Awesome!!!! Fabulous job Filipe! We're way beyond technique here. You already possess the technique to make a song like this to come to life. This is a workshop on interpretation and performance. You've captured the feeling and emotion in the song. Excellent job - very enjoyable. I wish it was longer...but I imagine you've already recorded the whole thing but wanted to highlight the vocals.?

[Felipe Carvalho]

Hey guys thanks for listening and for the words!

lol It seems soundclick has eaten away the ending, I uploaded it on box, I think it will work better!

I will reply more carefully later, but thanks ahead of it .

Great ending. Nice mixing job there, getting all those vocals to bounce around and still stay low in the mix, very cool sound. Was that all recorded on one track? It sounds like some of the extra voices are from a delay effect, but did you have two vocal tracks there as well?

[Nicogratouille]

Sounds good Felipe! Seems to me your strength lies in the more intense passages (here your voice really shines). Maybe you should work a little more on your lower dynamics?

I thought it sounded fine. I guess we just hear different things. However, a "good job" from me is the kiss of death, so it seems.

[Keith]

Wow. Good job. Let me ask this though, did you find it difficult to sing the high stuff thin, since we have all kinds been drilling a thicker head voice with a boomer resonance ?

[Adolph Namlik]

I thought it sounded fine. I guess we just hear different things. However, a "good job" from me is the kiss of death, so it seems.

Absolutely.... I thought you sounded fine as well !

AWESOME, Felipe :cool:

[jonathangraham]

Awesome Felipe!

you smashed it out the park. real nice interpretation, technique and well....everything really. :D

[Felipe Carvalho]

Tnx everyone for listeninng and pointing out that the ending was messed up.

@ronws, mdew, jonathan, adolph, geno, and akarawd. Thank you for your words guys, really appreciate it.

@Owen thanks man, yeah, recently, in the past 3 weeks more precisely, some small tensions that I fought for a long time went away, its probably sounding more natural now. At 2:32, happened by itself, but its the point of climax so its natural I think. Thanks for the detailed listenning.

@Nico I really should Thanks man

@Keith I dont know how to answer that man, I never think of these things as thin or thick. For example, there are a lot of falsetto on those higher parts, mixed with full voice, some things on full voice done soft, some things actually screamed on falsetto. Intensity is a matter of relaxation and efficiency, not registration of modal voice, falsetto. Thanks for your words man.

[ronws]

I think this was also a case of Felipe just singing, not overly-worried about technique. It was a performance.

A lesson to be learned.

[Olem]

Amazing, Felipe, you are mastering this song. Very beautiful high notes.

[Felipe Carvalho]

Tnx Owen , and tnx everyone that gave it a listen too ;)

[Owen Korzec]

Felipe, going off your response to Keith...how would you explain how you sang this in terms of M1 and M2? Did you switch between the two, blend the two (I think you've said that can't be done?), or keep it all within M1?

[Felipe Carvalho]

lol I meant to thank Olem! Thanks Olem!

But thank you Owen too .

Owen, the verses are all in M1, both before and after the solo. On the chorus, I said mixed because there is both of them in there, but not at the same time. A and G of the higher phrases are in M2 for sure, the E phrases on M1, the OOs, most on M2 if I remember correctly.

The ending high screams I think are in M2, but I honestly am not sure.

[ronws]

The ending high screams I think are in M2, but I honestly am not sure.

That's because you were singing, not being a technician or a teacher. You are Felipe, the artist.

[gilad]

What an awesome rendition for a great song Felipe!! Great vocals!

[Felipe Carvalho]

Gilad, thank you man :)

[ronws]

I think Felipe's version has drawn the most response and also the highest number of positive comments. Not that there is a prize,just a testament to a good job, I think.

[Felipe Carvalho]

Tnx Phil

ronws oh I dont see it as competition, its just studies. Just being able to perform this is more than enough of a prize.

Again tnx everyone that listened/listens/is listening .
