Love Chris Liepe. I don't know if his lessons would work for everyone. But they have been an incredible help for me. It's funny, because he is less scientific, and more feeling-based. But the way he teaches is so relatable to pretty much everyone, and thus accessible to everyone who has some understanding. He also doesn't shove some bullshit $2000 "BECOME THE BEST SINGER INTHE UNIVERSE 😱😱😱" voice course down your throat either. Great guy. Respect.
Chris is a really awesome guy and the content is really good. That many subscribers and still interacts with everybody. You can tell he's a genuine person and not just out to hawk a program.
I started with Chris and have since found Marc and I honestly think they're the two essentials for picking up vocal techniques. Chris unlocked a lot for me with his ridiculous vocal exercises that help you "discover" what your voice can do, but I think Marc's scientific explanation of things is unlocking a lot of fundamental understanding I've been missing
I have nothing to add to this since I study classical voice with a teacher at my school, but I’ve been hoping to come across this type of YT content for contemporary/pop singing. Online vocal coaches use such weird and often conflicting jargon that it’s hard to parse what’s going to be useful and not cause lasting damage to the voice.
I'm glad man. I'm classically trained too; all my teachers were operatic! I just shape it a little differently, use compression, not use as much air pressure, and add distortion and gualá! (I don't wanna sing opera). So it's classical technique + the non-nonsense way of seeing laryngeal mechanisms. Which obviously can't be mixed. Pavarotti agrees the tenor voice is constructed from scratch and artificial, which is just him saying you build it from M2: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-w2z1fV-GwQg.htmlsi=Nzb8FjEuggn3D5oN&t=273 - Plus I could ask my last teacher to try to make his 'chest high C's from M2 and of course, he could! The chestiest sound of all time: M2! Yet RU-vid vocal coaches will be like PUSH AND STRAIN, IT SOUNDS AWESOMELY POWERFUL! 🤣And never even get close to the 100% live consistency of opera singers.
@@M2Singing dude as a tenor still trying to crack through the upper register, my misuse of M2 might be exactly what’s holding me back. Thanks for the reply!
@@darrinjoy4893 I'm glad you remember too. You did? I usually email people after they buy full bundles; I offer 1:1 guidance through texting and videos and keep track of your progress but don’t do 1:1 lessons. Reach out to me if it interests you contact@marcajax.net - love
Robert L explains certain topics well and has a good energy about him, but i always felt like when he sang actual songs it was like Elmer Fudd meets Jack Black🤷🏼
Ok, some of my favorite YT coaches in no particular order: Chris Liepe, Sterling Jackson (he is like Marc Martel but for Chris Cornell and also very versatile), Keegan from Bohemian Vocal Studio, Floor Jansen (no wonder Nightwish got even more popular since she joined the band), Sybila Extreme Vocals (might the best coach when it comes to varied types on anything screaming related), Justin from Hungry Lights (now lead vocals for Tallah- also very good on different screaming techniques) and of course our lord and saviour from technical bull**it- Marc Ajax- the one that makes us all sit back, chill, be in tune with our voice and just cleanse from all the theory we eat up. You might know Marc, cool guy. Makes Blaine Pepsi jokes. 😂😂😂😂
Hahaha awww 😭 you're so nice; I appreciate you. Totally! Sterling's last cover of Like A Stone sounded phenomenal for sure. But I didn't know much else to add him here. Need to check out Floor Jansen
@@M2Singing she has only 3 vocal tutorials but they're in my daily routine - perfect for female range and varied techniques. So I had to put her here. She was a coach for years before she got with Nightwish apparently.
I respected Sterling Jackson until I suspect he got butthurt and blocked me from his channel for challenging him on his claim that F#4 is a baritone break. The break lies between Eb4-G4 for tenors and baritones alike. He should know better but doesn't.
@@TheeJordanRossi is that so relevant though? No offense, but it seems like a tiring subject to bring up. I see it everywhere. I think we should focus more on being in tune with our voice and just feel what feels like a passage to us. The fact he is not fixated on that actually makes me respect him more.
Eric Arceneaux, Bohemian Vocal Studio, and Leo Maia are legit. Michael Trimble, Sevana Salmasi, and Jose Simerilla Romero if you're into classical technique. Frankly, I watch more opera coaches than contemporary coaches.
Wait why didn’t you elaborate on Cheryl 😭 I’m not a singer, but when I watch her long style videos with individual students at a time, you can hear improvements even after one lesson
Would you consider checking out and reviewing the vocal course Dan Tompkins from TesseracT just put out? He’s an insanely good singer, but I’m always skeptical of courses. Cheers
Thats interesting. Don’t remember much but I remember seeing his videos back in the day and not specifically getting anything out of it but not feeling negatively about it either so probably a Solid B-A probably; very neutral about it. What’s your take?
@@M2Singing well, i think that because of that his capable of demonstrating it as a baritone then i think it's definetly achievable. And i seen some student of his on youtube (no baritone that demonstrate his vocal ability as a tenor (havent serach to much though, but he says that you can find student in his courses). Though he didn't seem to answer what's doable or not on his videos.And the stamina to pull it of regulary (in chest), i don't know about that. Me, myself i have trained alot of years with no course and have discovered (i think as Chris liepe said)that best aproch of expanding your range in a safe way is to extend your vocal bridge a little bit more and more, to grab that sweetspot of head and chest transission, and if your to low then you drag chest and to high then it's head. This i think it's the safest way to get a really chesty mix (but im not a vocal coach so i can't be for sure).lastly: how do you sing in high distorsion without increasing volume in chest and how do Chris liepe get his distorted mix voice sound and is he a baritone or not? And you haven't consider that you could be a low tenor with a bigger lower range, you sound very tenor like when you speak?Great video, thanks👍
@@sbmf319 to quote Pavarotti, the human normal voice is the baritone voice; the tenor voice is an artificial voice, which must be constructed. If you’ve seen my covers (Man In The Box, Cochise, Welcome to the jungle) those notes are in my M2 laryngeal mechanism (usually called falsetto) so it’s my artificial voice that I’ve created and has nothing to do with my predetermined baritone voice. On top of that, most my opera teachers did say I was a baritone (like 6 of them) and 1 of them said low or dramatic tenor. However I stick to the Pavarotti quote and not let it bother me. My academy is based on taking M2 (post-Voice crack) and growing it into the sounds (my covers are at a channel called “Marc Ajax Singing” & if you’re ever interested in my approach it’s at www.m2.academy ) much love to you bro
Tocayo, ya me parecia que tenías un acento argentino pero no me animaba a aventurar esa conclusión! la verdad decís la posta y te banco un montón. que opinas de daniel formica, kegan deboheme o eli prinsen? son otros vocal coaches un toque mas nuevos que andan por youtube. saludos desde pilar, buenos aires.
Out of all of them, I find Robert to be the best one as I have gone through countless courses and his method of teaching is right on. Plus, he also advocates the " no hidden area in the voice called mixed voice" which most vocal youtube gurus are all about. Plus he studied opera too. That's just my opinion. The fact that he studied with David Kyle, the teacher of Layne Staley, Chris Cornell and other Seattle greats is also a huge bonus.
Ya que hablas español, te comento en español. Tristan es posiblemente uno de los peores cantando. No puede aplicar nada de lo que enseña y no tiene un desarrollo didáctico de sus investigaciones, por lo que sólo se queda en un conocimiento abstracto/científico sin praxis.
@@franciscorapalo5 Nunca lo investigué tanto; sólo me gustaba que se refiriera a esos estudios científicos de la voz, aunque también dejó de hacerlo creo. Gracias por el comentario bro
@@M2Singing yo lo conozco también de esa época, y diría que se vendió bastante, por lo que vi sus comentarios suelen ser ahora muy generales. Creo que nunca logró aplicar de manera práctica su conocimiento, y por lo que veo vos sí, así que te felicito por eso.
