Hey guys welcome back again to Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy where the proof is in the singing!
Why do I always say that?
Well, I say that because I’m seeing a lot of really fancy advertising from a lot of
vocal coaches on the Internet where they still display absolutely no singing.
There’s a lot of smoke and mirrors, but look really closely.
They’re not singing, and they show no students singing, and I’m telling you, run from that!
If they can’t prove it themselves, they can’t teach you how to do it.
We’re going to do Born To Be Wild, Steppenwolf.
Will do it first, talk about it after, like we always do.
Here we go.
Whoo! Alright, so, again…There’s quite a bit going on here, too.
One of the cooler parts about this is exploring more of the lower tones of the voice, so:
get your motor running, head out on the highway, looking for adventure, and whatever comes
our way…
So what I do, normally, when I’m working out my voice and I’m singing high stuff,
I normally work out a real higher timbre to the sound, so my voice sounds kinda sounds like
little boy voice, kinda like Michael Jackson, when I’ve done a lot of workouts, so my
voice is placed really high.
For a song like this I don’t do that.
I actually work up my lower and mid tones first, and kind of let that settle, so I can
get that real nice warm tone, and instead of it sounding really bright, high, and pitched
in the face like the last video we just did, we can actually enjoy some of the warmth around the sound
So, now this is important, because whenever you cover a sound or darken a sound: get your
motor running, head out on the highway…
Right? There’s a tendency for it to sound kind of flat.
So if you go from a bright timbral sound: Head out on the highway… or: Head out on
the highway…
And we cover a sound, you’ve got to really be careful because it’s kind of a balancing
act between it sounding flat, or an apparent flatness, to a more high placed tone that’s
usually seated in the front of the face.
So anyway come join me.
I’ve got over 6000 members in my singing forums now, and I’ve got an awesome program,
How To Sing Better Than Anyone Else, and I’d love to have you guys come check it out.
So, until next time, Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy.
