Official Vocals thread (READ OP FIRST)


VISION

Recommended Posts

How do you know you have achieved head placement.

You feel the vibrations in your head, and it sounds very heady.

 

are there any contraltos with good technique?

Annie Lenox

 

I asked this before but people said you needed to hear my voice to tell me what voice type and timbre I am --- in choirs I was constantly getting shuttled between alto and soprano sections so I don't really know --- I can't sing most songs that are typed as soprano (can't reach a lot of the higher notes).

 

So here's a sample if you don't mind and have the time, mr and ms regulars of this thread.

 

Not a trained singer (had a couple basic lessons from my mom and sang in church choirs) so please excuse strain, intonation issues, bad vibrato etc.   :._.:  

Beginning section is singing at the top of my range and later section is the lowest comfortable that I can reach (g3 I think is the low note) (~2 mins)

I was an Alto too! But, I'm not a contralto or anything lol. I commend you for posting this, but next time could you post a vocaroo in mixed voice please. I have a feeling you might be a Soprano.

 

Alto refers to a line in choir music. Anyone with a good lower register can sing these lines and people who sings these lines usually refers to themselves as alto. Usually a mezzo-soprano sings Alto lines in choir. e.g we all know Mariah is a Lyric Soprano, but she used to sing Alto lines in choir music in her youth. That's why she calls herself an alto.

Like me~

She's one of them? i thought she was the best in the mediocre class. who else? Who is the closest to reach ok, and who else is reaching.

also, if mask resonance involves nasal cavities to vibrate, does that make it a nasal technique? If So, therefore a nasal vocalist can achieve resonance (mask)?

in this thread when talking about resonance, are we mainly talking about head?

You cannot resonate if you're singing through your nose! You soft palate HAS to be lifted! Mask resonance doesn't involve the nasal cavities vibrating, it involves vibrations around the cheekbones, nose and mouth.

has Luna resonated?

Yes, the performance was "Victory".

 

Hi guys *waves* 

it's my first time commenting here (I know it's obvious :D)

 

I had a question...is Lee Seungchul a good singer,I mean I know he's good but is he as good as everyone thinks?

what about Im Taekyung? 

Videos?

 

Are Gummy's vocals considered okay/decent?

I think she's OK.

how did she do in here?

Terribly.

 

I'm not being rude or anything, all of Kara suck, so no matter how many videos you post of them they will suck in every single performance. Until one of them spins a Taemin on us and drastically improves, you are just wasting your time posting Kara videos because they're a bad group and aren't even considered vocalists.

I didn't bash them. Vocally, they suck. Why? Well, I shall tell you why.

 

  • Next to no breath support
  • Out of tune singing
  • Intense nasality
  • No vibrato
  • Has never achieved the correct placement
  • Strains

Would you like me to elaborate? Oh! Wait! You might think I'm bashing again :rolleyes:

Did Justin Bieber achieve Resonance?

Did he invent a new technique of singing?

I mean he is throwing up while perfectly hitting the notes at the same time..

How is that even possible?

Are all haters wrong for calling him talentless?

Whoah such an unique performance..

How would you guys rate him? I think he deserves the title King of Pop now

And he is still young so much time for improvement

Gut resonance.

What did they do wrong? or Well?

 

 

Please

Very nasal and throaty performance from Jiyoon (my baby <3) and Gayoon. Their throats are very tight and they straining. Many intonation issues as well. Funny enough, Sohyun did better than Jiyoon and Gayoon, she's more stable and less throaty.

 

I have a question for you guys, who did the best for this song?

(note: they're not singing in the same language but it's the same song anyway)

 

I want to know who did the best when it comes to vocals skills, technique etc.

 

Taeyeon & Yoo Ara

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks to anyone who'll take time to listen and tell me :3

Taeyeon, definitely. Less intonation problems, much better support, nice placement.

 

Yoo Ara is bad, she's extremely nasal and lacks proper breath support.

 

 

 

 

so how did youngjae do?  :)

It was a mediocre performance.

It's something that I've noticed a lot: why do people who are trained or interested in vocals more interested in girl group members? do boy group members have least interesting vocal techniques or smth?

LOL. I just prefer listening to and stanning females, I do stan males but Hongki isn't exactly the greatest vocalist XD.

You like Jiyoon?!

Do you guys have vocal profiles for Lina and Dana? Would you say they're jjangbak?

Lina is the third best female idol vocalist (she's good) and Dana is decent. This means that CSJH are the best active vocal female group (idol). So yeah, they're jjangbak.

 

i think understanding vocals is seriously a curse

 

i rather not know my faves have bad vocals when they sound good to me.

 

 

anyways

 

 is Soyu from SISTAR OK or Good ? and why 

Soyu is weak. She sits in the mediocre to bad zone. Her modal voice needs work.

So...I quoted all of the people that I possibly could.

I have a question if you all don't mind~ 

 

I read the initial post awhile back, and the section about vibrato reminded me of a couple singers. It states that a quick vibrato can come about due to improper technique. There are a few singers I know of with quick vibrato like Florence Welch, or Ellie Goulding(actually I've noticed it most in singers from the UK). My question is, in the case of someone like Florence, is she producing it improperly, and is it always a sign of improper technique? I've come across lives where she sings the same songs without the rapid fire vibrato, so could it at times be considered a stylistic choice? D:

 

There have been instances where I've seen people compliment a quick vibrato, so I'm confuzzled. <.>

Florence Welch uses a fast vibrato for stylistic purposes, but Ellie is just this airy singer whose trying so hard to push the air our that she has an overly fast vibrato.

 

Thank you

 

 

A gift

Welcomes! AHHH Patti! Mariah! Vocal GOODNESSES!

Mariah and Patti are my fave's ,<3

 

I love Mariah too!

 

Every morning when I wake up, I just, pray to god. That he gives me strength and the ability to detect shade when ever it's thrown at me.  :ahmagah:  :hurr:

 

 

 

 

How good is Mariah? At her prime was anybody better?

Mariah's upper belts in her prime were literally untouchable. Whitney and her were on the same level back in the day, but Mariah's upper belts > Whitney.

 

What voice type does urban zakapa's Jo Hyun Ah fall under?

Light Lyric Soprano.

*scans thread looking for all Kongwee's posts to see what the deal is*

You're from anti-kpop fangirl right?

what do you think of exo's vocals? are they bad? and is there someone who can match Ailee's

They're all mediocre, D.O and Chen have shown potential to be OK. None are even close to Ailee.

Sorry to butt in, now that Se7en was mentioned, I remember Taemin sang his song back in November 2011...

 

20120923 SE7EN - Be Good to You

 

111103 Taemin - Be Good to You

Taemin > Se7en (I'm going by these performances only).

Ahhh so many videos and I can't watch any of them.

See: http://onehallyu.com/index.php?/topic/11290-official-kpopalypse-radio-showblog-thread/

 

Also I know Kongwee from back in the day when [A CERTAIN OTHER FORUM THAT SHALL NOT BE NAMED HERE] didn't suck as much as it does now, so curious to see what he's been up to.  But it's too much backthreading for me.  Has he been trolling you guys by saying that [insert his T-ara bias here, I can't remember it] is the best singer of all time?

He thinks Soyeon > Mariah.

 

nice~ Se7en's other vids were posted here without response yet...

 

 

SORRY IM BUSY OMG LOL No but someone did reply that they think Se7en isn't better, I didn't think he was and I didn't watch the videos.. lol but it was akisame who said it right? She knows her shit LOL

Yes I do.

 

what performance did ailee have resonant f5?

I don't think there is one. But she has a resonant F#5.

 

 

what do you think about his guys?

but we can find some of their japan release and korean release as well
 
 
and
 
 
so just gave me 1-10......and a little explanation ...teach me guys..
 
 
 

 

Many intonation, placement, support problems.

one of you posted a picture of male vocalists' ranking a few weeks ago,is G.O that great? I mean I know he's good and all but had no idea he was up there ! 

 

 

how is Sandeul? 

G.O is good, he resonates quite a bit and is good in his comfort zone.

 

Sandeul is decent, but I don't know much more about him because I've never watched many of his performances.

Hi guys.

 

Can I ask you guys for a favor? Uhm, your thread title has caught the attention of many people, and some have made complaints to us about it. So can I ask you to remove the part in the bracket out of the thread title.?

You know, maybe you really dont like the presence if some users here, but this kind of title, in my opinion, is uncalled for. Some may intepret it as a form of public bullying(hmm i don't know if that is a good word choice).

If the user bothers you guys that much, there is always the options of ignoring, and There is no need to single out a member on a thread title like this

 

I hope you guys understand for me.

Cheers, and keep spreading the knowledge of vocals :)

Can you do this yourself please, can't get hold of the OP right now.
