Would you have the time to help at all?
Excuse me mister @chrislipe I need to ask you a question. So as a kid in middle school I could do this thing I called the eagle cry because It sounded like a bird, and could summon birds. Ok so imagine a firework I could do that. But I'm a bass 2.
I lost it in around 2019.
And that's like when my voice was at it's deepest.
So I've have always wanted to get it back. I trained for years. Singing Jacob Collier songs for hours on end. And my voice can now reach like a low soprano or something.
Look up every time we say good by Jacob Collier live. That's the highest I can sing safely but I can go a tad higher.
But I still can't get that high screech whistle thing.
I also realized lately I also can't whistle too good anymore.
This has been my goal for like 5 to 6 years. And I can sing basically anything.
But I still can't do the one thing that was mine. A literal copy of a hawk.
Could I ask you if you know or could help and or make a video on it.
I wasn't inhaling I was exhaling. And I think my larynx did something, I can still make the shape in my throat but there's no sound.
I'm watching your video on whistle tones. And my eagle cry is a mix between that inhale screech and the whistle.
Please if you see this could you help. It's the one thing I've wanted to be able to do ever since the day I realized I couldn't any longer. It's like the moment I tried my throat forced it self down and then I couldn't. Like it felt like I was gonna choke on my voice box.
Don't read into that too much it was years ago so I'm probably imprinting how it currently feels on that memory.
Not spam just making sure you have a high probability to see it
It's just so weird. I just tried to hum a kinda high note. But not only can I not visualize it but I can't even come close to singing it. There is a titanium wall there. That is the wall I could easily slipp under to get my crazy whistle note but now when I try it's like my voice is just pushing right back down with the same force if not more
It's saddening really.
Yes! I even have options, later on the process, if you decide to go deeper, to do a private lesson with me
I know I’ve done the right support when I have distortion and grit in my underwear
😂
Haha
💀💀
so true xD
Hahahaha the fear is real 😢
I think the most counter intuitive for learners is related to 2nd check. When we listen to brutal grit it feels like the singer is pushing hard and singing louder, when in fact it's the total opposite. That's something hard to catch without a professor to show you
Yeah craziest shit i’ve learned while having a good coach is that the less air you use, the better , brighter and heavier you sound. Which is crazy mind blowing
i find that i can activate the false chord / voice break scream easier but with the compression i notice a kinda warmth/friction in my throat. It definitely feels higher than vocal chords and doesnt affect my talking voice so maybe it's easing into that a bit more and finding the sweet spot? also was helpful to hear you make those croaky husky noises to demonstrate where in ur throat it is happening
As a guitarist I saw the thumbnail, and immediately thought “Well I never considered that. I guess it depends on your proximity to the speaker?”
haha... Now I'm thinking of all the ways I'd make a "safe distortion video" for guitarists :)
it's such a relief to know that I'm doing it right, I have watched your tutorials but was never sure if I was doing it correctly so thanks for this video!
Same. Thank you @chrisliepe for all the help!
Holy Buckets that Gasoline bit you did at the beginning was amazing
Well. Very well. Perfect distortion. Powerfull. Chris , you are the best❤
Ive been practicing adding distortion this morning and so glad to see (and hear) that im doing it right 😅
The Technique is great, and it really works! But I can't help but laugh whenever I hear the example 😂
Blood curdling, excellence examples thanks for sharing.
Thanks Chris! You sound incredible in that brutal opening 🫡
Glad you enjoyed it!
great stuff, Chris! It'd be great if you could analyse Brendan Yate's vocals, from Turnstile. Cheers!
Super helpful vid, thank you!!!🙏🤘
This is the type of video I really like. Very well organized and thoroughly explained.
Check #2 made me realize I can actually transition into distortion! I thought I couldn’t because I always tried to lean/push to get it!
I still don’t see where the transition comes from between clean and breakup. How do guys like I Prevail and Of Mice And Men sing in breakup???
I'm pretty sure I've been using too much force or projecting too much, I noticed if I change my placements I can get the same grit and distortion in a different area. It's also way less tiring and easier to sing longer periods without losing steam. Why did I always think I needed to use so much force? Is this a normal misunderstanding when singing?
It is SOOOO common!! It’s totally one of those “less is more” things!
@@chrisliepe thanks Chris, I think this is going to change things immediately for me going forward 🤘
Also, LiSA is popular, and the song "Gurenge" and Homura from first take ver is also recommended! I want you to feel that your emotions are being pulled and see it😁
Your videos have helped me SO MUCH in developing my screaming. I’m limited currently on what I can scream safely but it’s coming along. Thanks for your content Chris!
This video couldn't have dropped at a better timed. I'm getting more local opportunities and started doing harsher vocals.
It’s always a bad sign when the throat isn’t loosely “engaed”.
I've been having a lot of trouble with vocal distortion, this really helps. Also great intro, what a scream
Thanks for making a video in response to that request I made!
They call me bulldoser lol i gotta work on backing off when singing gritty
What's up, Chris. Thanks again for being cool with Jonny Craig.
I know you're a Soundgarden, Alice in Chains inspired style, and even though it wasn't my primary scene (though they do have some jams fo sho), the explanation on this one was done really well. I especially like when an actual sound comparison is done and we get to see (interpreted as decibel change) the difference in what proper vocal distortion is over just yelling the shit out of it.
Hope to see y'all collaborating again down the line and cool explanation.
Derek Mck
Nice🤘👌
Chris...you're a genius!! So much value from this 💚
Man I’m never guna get this …. …. It’s been years and I can’t do it. I guess I’ve never used proper support in that case
Im doimg nothing but studying you videos. On motionless in white. Adding distortion fals chords eveything cause ibe dont it wrong for so long and still am
Let's goooooooooooooo
Great video Chris. It's challenging to know if we are using our vocal chords the correct way. Much appreciated!!
Ps. Have you listened to Jacob Collier's new (a month old) track called Little Blue ft Brandi Carlile? I highly recommend checking it out!
I KNOW it isn't safe. Please, show me the way, you beautiful man.
Love your vocal distortion!❤
05:50 that’s why this is my favorite ASMR-Channel ❤
Haha
This is probably the most useful video I've watched on vocal distortion yet!
Been watching your channel for a year now and ty for all the useful content, i have a vocal style that i want to understand more because it is so unique, shannon hoon of blind melon has facinated me for a long time and i need to hear more educated people talking about him, please dont make a no rain video because the rest of their music really isnt like that song. Much love❤
This is very helpful. I definitely have work to do.
Great video and explanation of placement - really liked the part on creating better intensity, quieter.. always chased more volume with intensity which always resulted in a worse sound.. and throat
Thanks Chris, another banger for sure. Seriously keep up the incredible work as always!
Absolute Legend Chris Liepe! Thank you!! Started working my way through your 12 week course- so great so far!
These videos are well done and very educational and also very funny 😂
It's also nice that the video owner is singing✨
I love this! And yes my distortion is safe!😁 I can sing gritty songs all day!
thank you chris! as someone who learned by myself i really needed this
your awesomeness inspires me to be awesome 🙏🏼
Dude. Only 30 seconds into the video, but I had to comment already. Sick vocals on Gasoline, gah dang
THANKS!! :)
"...loosely engaed." 😂 😉
Thanks a ton for this :) I used to be constantly teetering on the edge of trashing my voice but after watching your stuff my voice is a little more okay now (though I still have a ways to go).
I just uploaded my English vocal cover of a song by an amazing band called 'the pillows', a bit of distortion being utilized there :)
Killin it Chris, great vid.
Oh my god that first section of your vocal were freaking KILLER
Bravo 👏👏👏👏👏👏

as someone who has never done an unclean in their life, i always struggle adding distortion with my false cords. because it tickles! I'm not sure if that means I'm going something incorrect, but I'm a trained vocalist so I think I'm targeting the right area. the tickling always ends my practice session early lol.
Hey Chris, I started singing a Lamb of God cover band, when I'm warming up my voice I feel a tickle, a slight discomfort, in my throat, it doesn't hurt or anything like that, so I just clear my throat and the feeling goes away, after I'm warmed up I don't feel that sensation anymore, is it something common in harsh vocals or will it disappear over time?
By the way, my warm-up is the warm-up course with you, Will and Elizabeth xD
i think i accidentally moved into the bad way of grit and distortion. i used to be able to scream really easily and painlessly. even Chester's 17 second scream from "Given Up" came relatively easy to me.
but for the last couple of months, screaming has left me slightly hoarse and with some sore muscles. even my clean mixed voice has been difficult to maintain recently.
it makes me both sad and a little angry, because i can no longer sing along to my favorite songs.
A big factor in singing is the speaking voice. One Point which helped me very much is to practice distortion while speaking.
Chris l love your work. Can you do a video on the band Holding Absense please? Amazing vocals!
Thanks for going into the danger zone to help us Chris.
I practice some of the last few exercises
❤
Well I pissed myself
Oh good! Rite of passage!
My voice is always sore after I try practicing, am I doing something wrong ?

Is 'vocal fry scream 'break up'' a thing?
Vocal Fry and screaming are completely different things. The term "fry scream" can be confusing and misleading for this very reason. :) See more in this course: www.mymusicalvoice.com/p/the-aggressive-vocalist-s-master-plan-of-attack
Dude nice cover of Gasoline bro!
Thanks for listening!
Comment for da algorithm
Streak count: 282
But do you feel that closer to your larynx or more like in your head
If you're doing it safely and sustainably, you'll feel almost nothing in your larynx and more in your upper constrictions and in your lower support! Join the free course in the video description to dial things in further!
@@chrisliepe thanks man
First
Closer!
bro just letting you know this video is not available in russia, maybe other countries too.
It's just Russia, but should be cleared worldwide soon!
