@SamraK64 2 года назад

If you think live performances are unprocessed, oh boy (or not boy), you're not ready to hear an actual raw take (and you're ready to learn a lot about sound engineering, which I encourage you to do) Even amazing voices, if unprocessed (but still rendered through devices such as microphones, speakers, etc) will always sound like shit. Because microphones do not work like the human ear does, and speakers, electronic circuits etc add another layer to that. So you actually already have to do a decent amount of processing just to end up with something that sounds *kind of* similar to what you would hear if you were standing near the person and hearing them directly I've recorded and mixed a decent number of singers/rappers and various instrument, and raw takes, even of great performers and with great microphones, always sound like shit. What we most of the time call "raw takes" are not raw strictly speaking, the processing is just kept to a minimum, without the "bonus" shiny aesthetic effets such as delays, autotune, distorsion, fancy reverbs and stuff like that So I feel like the processed/unprocessed dichotomy doesn't really make sense. Stuff is just more or less processed, and sounds more or less like what you would "naturally hear" if you were directly standing near the performer. PS: Ashley's part would not sound the same irl. But live, with good sound engineers, it might. I'm pretty sure none of their voices are being pitch-corrected, they are voice actors after all so with just a bit of work it's probably very easy for them to sing in tune. Don't get me wrong, she sounds like she's an awesome singer, but no one's voice sounds like that irl. The ethereal and very spectacular vibe she has is greatly helped by the compression, reverbs and delays she has going on there. That voice sounds like it's echoing in the dark, like it's calling from ages ago. Those effects add a lot to the pretty strong and deep voice she seems to have.

Oh neat, I didn't know there was an actual term for that, I just thought it was basic harmonization! When I first heard it, I had to replay that part a dozen times, it was so elegantly done! From 00:37 to 00:41, when they sing "he mi-i-ight" is there a musical term for the multi-note pattern it ends with? (In contrast to ending with a solid note like from :44 to :47.)

@FSK69 2 года назад

The whole song is full of harmonics, the part i was describing is just the most easily recognisable. Usually, when you have two voices together singing different notes at the same time, you calculate the distance between the 2 notes and that is how you name the interval. It dependends on the distance between the 2 notes. Hope that helped a bit :)

My favorite part of this is how, in the "Explorers" segments, each person is so perfectly represented as characters from a 1920's-style expeditionary force. Matt is the intellectual, who looks surprised and confused to be included in this venture. Laura, Marisha and Ashley are the adventuresses who refuse to take a back seat and let the men do all the important stuff. Travis is the "muscle" who knows when NOT to fight; Liam just looks damn good! I can completely imagine Robbie as the pilot and Sam as the questionable side-kick who seems to have connections, but you're just not sure he's on your side. And I swear, I totally expected a Cockney accent to come out of Taliesin's mouth. This is glorious!
