Singers: How to Develop Power the RIGHT Way (Have you discovered this?) 

How the hell is this guy not famous???? I mean teaching aside .... his voice is AMAZING! Better than anything on the radio today.

This made me finally "get" breath support

THIS MAN SAVED MY VOICE, I was really screwing up my voice in a hardcore band and his videos with a little practice on the technique literally saved me from injury. love ya man! thanks for the quality free content!

Man, the pooping technique is genius. I´ve seen many teachers explaining how to engage the right muscles for singing but none is as clear as this. Thanks!

Great lesson! This is what vocal teachers are trying to construe when they say "sing from your diaphragm". Explaining how things are supposed to feel helps so much...awesome channel!

So far 19 people have actually shat themselves lol. Great video once again! :)

Chris Liepe has the biggest balls ⚽️ 🏀 🏈 making all these crazy embarrassing sounds and helping us all out

Chris is Litterally giving info for free that costs heap of money with other teachers, this support thing changed my voice in instant

I do this and my abs shimmers now i feel like I just went to the gym

Thank you for being the best vocal teacher on the internet! I'm not kidding. Most people don't get into detail like you..they say "sing from your stomach" and I'm like how?? Tell us!

Oh, I think I finally get it now. So when we sing a phrase, the support muscles kind of dip, flex, and relax constantly to push the air upwards. I used to just constantly push air upwards without using those muscles like this; basically, I just locked them in place without those dips and blew a continuous stream of air always. It sounds much better and feels more natural like this. Thanks a lot.

man, your videos are both funny and helpful, keep up the good work

Your vocal projections also remind me of Chris Daughtry at times!

Been learning to sing seriously for almost a year and I just figured this out today, and alas I can sing freely it’s incredible ! On the right path finally

My whole life I’ve done it wrong and all my muscle memory for vocals are merely bad habits so I must start from scratch… already I’m hearing a difference! Im not doing songs not doing words for the next good while, focusing only on developing proper diaphragmatic support. .. in about a month or two I’ll put up a before and after… That’s how confident I am with how much better it’s sounding. Thank you!

Again I must thank you Chris, for 2 years now I’ve been working on vocals (even though I hate my own voice ) I finally got the courage to really let it hang on jam day and all I’ve heard is complainants, “you’ve really come a long way” “ that’s the best youve ever sounded” and it’s all because I found you and employed your teachings. Thank you brotha, keep up the good work

I'm so thankfull this channel exists! My vocal coach recommended me to watch some of your videos and I'm really happy to see that they are working into my vocal abilities. Just one more time: thanks for sharing your knowledge with us!

Those first takes in the booth sounded great man. The high notes on the brink of a crack but guarded sounded so good man

Uhh, I just blew the back out of my shorts, nailed it😎 On a more serious note, love this video! After first discovering it, I could hear major improvements. But after a little while, I noticed I would slowly start reverting back to my old habits, unintentionally of corse. So I’m always having to come back and re-sync.. this vid is crucial

Man! I love your high notes and the compression as well!

Love you man, your the only teacher on RU-vid that can actually help me with my singing.👍

I definitely feel like we are family!! With the love you have for singing and the passion you have to give others all your wisdom is very much appreciated!! You just dont give a 1 min video. You are an inspiration to us all!! Thank You so much for your articulations Chris!!!

dude your video saved my singing. I had so much tension in my throat when singing but this video completely changed how singing felt to me. thank you so much!!!

Hey man, you're my favorite singing teacher. Your feel based approach is so effective!

Just found your channel and watching you all day. Signed and have watched the Free Voice training already. You are really opening a whole new world for me. I used to "sing" many years ago, of course completely the wrong way not heaving any access to good materials back then and now just trying again to learn it the right way. You are a great educator and really pro. Fantastic channel, fantastic videos and content. Thank you very much.

Excellent video, for months now I have been trying to understand how to support without straining and engaging the right muscles, this video saved me, thank you so much

Thanks! After watching your vids for one night you've explained things sooo much better than I've learned in months from the self-proclaimed 'professionals'. Breaking things down into analogous but normal bodily feelings makes it so much easier for beginners like myself to understand things like support, fry, head voice and compression etc. Nice one!

Chris your explanations of support are simply fantastic, man. You’ve taken an abstract term (support) - and through exercises - turned it into recognizable bodily sensations; AND put them into the context of musical exploration. Top notch, my man. Thanks!

Omg that is what I’ve been looking for , for years ! Thank you so much Chris you’re a genius ❤️

Unbelievable what difference this makes. This probably just saved my voice for the long haul. And all the while giving more power & control from top to bottom.

YES!! Your videos have totally changed and developed my control and support. I'm so grateful!

"THE SUPPORT" mystery solved completely Brilliant job, Chris!

That was my problem for a very long time! I’ve always let not enough air flow through me and with high notes i was getting tried very fast. Plus it makes my singing more clear! This is what solves the problems! Huge difference in feeling after doing this exercises before singing! Thank you so much!!

Man, watching your videos has helped me so much. I’ve always sung from up in my neck and always wonder why my voice came out so thin and would get worn out after a single recording session. I still haven’t mastered the correct techniques yet, but I’m super hyped about the journey to get there. You the best

Great value! Even as a professional trained singer. Subscribed and belled

By far that is one the most helpful techniques to build Power I’ve incorporated in to my vocal practicing.

Chris! great thank you! You clarify many important things in your video - found you a month ago - you tips are working! You explain very simple and your examples very nice - this video is about support...how many years I have been looking for a normal advice with examples, pretty and not. Continue this way!

This is the part wherein it's so unclear, I've seen lots of videos about this, but this one is the BEST ONE of ALL! Thanks Chris :D

This is genius! I've seen plenty of vocal coaches and done dozens of vocal exercises, but none of them are like this. Following Chris from now on. 👍

just discovered your channel. I'm been singing a long time but needed a lot more work on my basics! best channel by far :)

13:21 to 14:21 is way better than a lot of recent music

Chris, I just found you several days ago. What a treasure it has been. In one of your videos, you advised against tilting your head up or down. But did you not tilt your head up in the beginning demo in this video? Was the mike placed too high? Please clarify for this newbie.

i was a bit surprised by the bearing down advice but it really is genius, the sensation stuck to me instantly. thanks for your great videos!!!!

Chris, you are the best singing teacher ever, so easy and practical... tx a lot

I've sent this to every person I've talked to about extreme singing, and I feel really good knowing that they'll find the same abilities as I did. You're the greatest, Chris. Thank you so much ❤️

Legend. Subscribed and signed up to free vocal course. I'm paying for one to one voice lessons and you sir have thought me technique I was not thought. A big Thank you.

Im working with a vocal coach now but i just found you and feel sooo comfortable with your approach because being confused on singing correctly and strengthening my vocals has been a struggle

Just felt obligated to comment. After finding the right feeling to engage the lower abs, it feels like the air flows effortlessly and much more rich. The difference in singing a song I was already comfortable was unbelievable. Another songs are not that easy to make this transition, maybe because my brain is already used to the wrong way. Now the objective is to relearn how to talk and sing to always engage like this hahahaha. Chris Liepe, you are amazing!

I have gained a lot out of your unconventional methods of conveying how to sing healthy. I enjoy all your content, but this vid is one I keep coming back to. Thanks for doing what you do!

Dude - It's possible you've just changed my life by watching not even five minutes of your video. There's something about the way you imparted this info that just changed everything about the way I sing. I'm totally going to finish this vid and watch loads more of yours, but I've been busy preparing for a show I just had this past weekend. Usually after a 30 minute set, I'm fried and have burtn the top (and almost all) of my voice. Even though I came down with a cold on the day of my gig, I still got through the set and had barely hurt my voice at all. I was hitting higher notes I usually strain for after a couple of songs, right the way to the end of my set and was told by someone I trust that it's the best she's ever heard me sing. Usually, if I read what I've just written on a website, I'd completely dismiss it as a fake advert, but dude... THANK YOU. Can't wait to learn more.

what a great teacher. thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. I can't tell you how much your videos are helping me correct my mistakes and fix bad technique.

Such a great, confident, comforting presence and teaching style. Thank you for this, I’ve been experiencing upper body tension while singing for a while, and that yawning/sticking the tongue while bearing down exercise is a great one to really get the feel! Much love ❤️

Another great lesson! Go, Chris Go!!!!

i’ve had singing lessons for just under 2 years now and feel like i’m not making much progress. i’m not very confident in myself to try and perform to anyone but i’ve always wanted to. i’m specifically interested in more rock/metal vocals and learning screams and growls. i’m specifically wanting to sound most like Oli Sykes of bring me the horizon. i have been watching loads of your videos recently and they have helped me gain so much information and also some confidence to try out different things. when i try practicing by myself, i sometimes feel like i hold back a lot because i’m a bit anxious of what i might sound like, or if I’m too loud for others to hear me. i’m going to continue watching more of your videos, thanks so much for these!

This is a great video no one ever talks about onset’s when discussing engaging the diaphragm!!

I need to rewatch this a few times, amazing info

Your talent and teaching techniques are just the perfect combo 👌

Great! Do more videos about singing support!

Chris, you are both funny and an extremely strong specialist ! Do what you are doing. Thanks for that knowledge, it’s gold

you‘re a gem forreal!!

Best singing teacher by far. You get straight to the point and have no boundaries for vocal expression. I was watching Ken Tamplin for a minute and he was a good singer but he didn’t strike me as good as a teacher as you.

The way i understood how it's supposed to feel when I have the best support is to sing a scale up and down while doing a sit up and try to maintain the same volume on the way up and down. Once you get the feeling, it's not difficult. It's so important to know what the diaphragm is and how it operates.

Chris, I’ve loved your videos so far. As a beginner, your content makes sense and I appreciate how much I’ve learned about my voice through you. Would you consider making a video on Jonny Craig’s singing? He is known for a raspy belting sound. Would love your take on it. Oh, and achieving vibratos would be amazing too. Thanks a lot! - Dean

Awe darn, I just pooped. No wait, all good... just a fart. I think I will sing and poop with more power now. Thanks!

Bless you man, you really are a terrific singer and teacher.

It's awesome that he teaches in a way the average person can understand. Lot of coaches although they know what they talking about their points may not be understood because of their vocabulary

Thank you so much cris for this tutorial wow great idea😮

Man you are killing it !!

WOW 👏 Brilliant instruction... Also, stunning voice 👏

Thankyu so much for the lesson..it helps me so much how to figure out the way I produce my voice...🙏🏻🤍🙏🏻🤝

Your videos helped me a lot!!!! Thanks man!!!!

More power - more quality of the sound you sing , amazing .

Speaking of powerful singing sitting down, Layne Staley on MTV Unplugged was amazing. He is soooo relaxed and he sounds amazing!

most appropriate technqiue to build strong vocals. thanks man!

Really great my man, thank you for your work :)

There have been other RU-vid vocal coach reactors who say squatting is a good pose, or kind of bending forward. None of them have ever bothered explaining why. Thank you.

So helpful! Thank you

Man, your vocal power and control is some of the most insane I’ve heard! Would you be able to do a video on exercises for compression/cord closure in the future? I struggle with this and feel like the muscles responsible are weak as hell for me.

You are ridiculously brilliant!!!!

This is Gold Explenation and best Coach

Also now I'm seeing with my bare eyes that support is really making a difference, sutil but great for us wanting to star 🤩

I got a hang of diaphragm breathing but there was much more to it. I got a coach and I started leaning into the sound and feeling it. Believe me I felt it when I did. I just figured out where it was coming from and man... I just started laughing my ass off. You have to maintain focus there, but you know what that spot actual is in esoteric terms? It's Kundalini energy. I did meditations focusing on that. The energy literally rises naturally. I wish you all the best Chris. The right spot is no where near the voice. In fact the total opposite.

GAME FREAKING CHANGER THANK YOU!!!

Hi Chris, First of all thank you for the great videos, you helped me go from a simple deathcore vocalist to a diverse singer in less than a year's time. I developed a base for clean singing and proper screams fit for a modern metalcore band. We're currently working on our first EP. It's going to be amazing, but I really want to do pitch screaming and powerful distorted/compressed singing on the tracks, but I am afraid that I wont be able to pull it off, because something just doesn't feel right. Looking forward to watching a video for this or getting any tips!

WELL EXPLAINED AND AWESOME TIP

Love your teachimg❤

Excellent lesson

Well, you helped me to realize I can sing powerfully without tension O_o didn't connect the dots yet. thanks! 🙏 This helps with being able to do it at will though xd

A confident, booming voice ❤

This is 1000 times better than a 1-year course with the wrong direction

Interesting... Thanks for sharing this.

Thank you so much!

It helps me so much!

I love the videos, can you do a vid on great bass tone and mixing?

Amazing voice and amazing job (I believe in us)

I tried this practice, I'm shaking and sweating 😂 It's going to work, just I need to practice more.

My true Voice now activate Because of this Vodeo Thankssss .

I don’t know exactly where this is going but I remember singing into a tape recorder at a pretty young age and how pathetic sounding that recording was. Not at all what I pictured in my head that i sounded like. I’m going to work through these lessons. Already I feel like I’m learning something tangible. I play guitar now and just wish I could sing along. Hopefully soon I can build up the confidence to record my voice again and post something on RU-vid. If I do you can be sure I will link to it on these posts! I don’t sing grunge music so hopefully some of this will translate to my 70’s music strumming fool style.

Maverick is a die hard fan. Like you - we keep it rad over on MVE. --The Dad

Best vocal coach in yt 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
