Buuuuddy. I've been waiting for you to discover the BBX world. Welcome to your new obsession. I've really enjoyed watching the fairy voice mother go down this rabbit hole, and can't wait to see you too. You're gunna be bombarded with requests, I'm sure, but right now I'm really into Vahtang - feeling free. Powerful vocals there too.
Some other quiet spoken legends you could check out are Villain vs Dudz in BBU, or ZVD vs. Clutch in Beatbox community. Lastly, 2021 was a crazy year in GBB, so a 10 ten solo drops list is a good one to look at. Have fun with it!
this is where the rabbit hole of beatbox begins
fr let's goo. I used to watch a ton of these in hs. Always loved the Billie Jean one lol
oh yeah it’s a real addiction
Its truly an amazing rabbithole
:D yes yes its perfect
HAHAHA
So glad you took a look at this, Beatboxers have been experimenting a lot with interesting extended techniques and using them in ways that haven’t been studied much. Always good to have more vocal experts become aware of this world.
Some suggestions for beatbox performances that incorporate singing
Stitch - Feels Like Nothing
King Inertia - GBB21 Elimination Round
Den - GBB24 Wildcard
Gene Shinozaki - Metamorphosis
River - My Way
D-low - Sing a Little Harmony

Need to check out colaps
What I absolutely love about your channel is that your first reaction upon coming onto something new is: Hold on, what's that? How do I do that? What's going on? And this curiosity is infectious!
Welcome to the wild world of Beatboxing!! There is so much so digest if you are not familiar with what our voices can produce, but it’s extremely fun learning about everything too. I would suggest checking out some of these beatboxers next! D-Low, Codfish, Remix, Vocodah, Helium, and honestly there are so many other talented people! Looking forward to seeing more bro!
I second that! 🔥🔥🔥
Welcome, drink water, stay safe, and have fun, that's the way of beatboxing!!!
This is wild! 🤯 You know Chris, you remind me of my husband with a TV remote. He doesn’t want to just know what’s on, he wants to know what ELSE is on. Vocally, you don’t want to just know what you can do. You want to know what ELSE you can do and you bring us students right along with you. 🤩 Your teaching never gets boring. 🎉 Looking forward to that plugin.
Glad to see Beatboxing getting more and more recognition. For the amount of talent and hard work theses guys put in!
A little correction here: at around 4:00 you mention him using throat singing. It's actually not a throat singing method, but more of a classical subharmonic singing (that is based on mixing vocal fry with chest voice). Kargyyra throat singing does not utilise vocal fry and is based on stable false cords distortion :) It's an important distinction, since the way you achieve the sound is physically totally different (and frankly I feel that this technique - classical subharmonic singing is WAAAY more difficult to control and master than kargyyra throat singing) :)
This ☝️
Vibration bass
👍
Great vid Chris! That "little fizzy" sound is a lip roll. It's made purely by vibrating the lips. No air is involved, so it can be combined with a lot of other vocalizations to create layers in the sound. Napom is arguably one of that best at this technique.
Btw when bbxers say "no air" we are specifically talking about not utilizing our lungs. There is also variations of the lip roll that do use air but they usually sound dramatically different. Very versatile, very hard, very amazing sound!
I never imagined you would venture into this category! I've had such a fascination with beatboxing for years now and I'm SO excited to see your evaluation of this exact video!
Not to detract from Indicator, who is a great beatboxer, but the evolution of the beatbox community has been incredible since this came out years ago. Excited for you to hear more of the new school of artists and get into the culture.
Welcome to your beatboxing journey!
You are such a joy to watch and learn from! Truly demonstrating that learning to do something new takes lots of practice and being fully open to making mistakes. This applies to so much, even outside of music - thank you so much for sharing!
should mention that he isnt doing throat singing but if you're interested a beatboxer named codfish is definitely in your area
Welcome to the community sir 🔥. Hope you explore some more
Thank you! What should I do next?
@@chrisliepe D-low is considered the best beatboxer in the world by many currently and just released a whole album - this is my favorite track of his that isnt layered or has effects or extra productiony stuff ua-cam.com/video/0I_FIPcl0dA/v-deo.html
Someone that has been extremely popular outside of the beatbox world that does his own thing is show-go, this is one of his most popular songs, very different style to the first link ua-cam.com/video/yT3_vLQ3jbM/v-deo.html
YA-NA-HA is a more recently formed crew, 4 beatboxers, one of the most pleasant sounding songs ive ever heard in beatboxing that you could go crazy analyzing if you want to hear a multi person track that has no voice adjustments, just things like reverb ua-cam.com/video/H07gziO04ig/v-deo.html
@@chrisliepeAstron He’s a Blind Beatboxer so learning skills isn’t based off seeing the mouth position just simply by hearing and he’s Argentine Champ and Also just did a BeatDuel live tournament Months back he also Won dudes amazing and someone to really figure out how he’s mastered it also has some of the craziest Vocal Whistles and Basses
10:49 Lip Roll
11:08 ClickRoll overbite
@chrisliepe check out ZVD's Florida wildcard called "Horizons" or check out anything by Dlow or Collaps, they're considered to be the best in the world right now
Btw, probably worth noting that when trying beatbox for yourself Indicator’s “Alien Bass” is probably not the best place to start. It’s a cool and unique technique, but it’s very difficult to learn and he’s the only one who uses it. He also hasn’t entered and won many big live competitions with it, so it may be temperamental even for him. It’s really cool to see him showcase it here, but there’s lots of other bass vocal techniques Beatboxers use that aren’t this finicky to master.
Good to know, thank you!
Please react to DEN - Moments I had 🙏
might be a silly idea but i kinda want to see you ocassinally analyze some voice actors
Honestly I would love to see that 🤩
Yes! I was wondering when you would start going down the beatbox rabbit hole, I believe the fields of harsh vocals and beatbox can probably be combined in so many ways to create new techniques and sounds.
I'd like to see you react to "ZVD | Horizons | Florida beatbox battle 2024 solo wildcard". It's less musical and produced than other recommendations I'm seeing in the comments, very raw, no edits, he doesn't have a mic in his face so you can see his mouth shapes, and he uses a LOT of different techniques :). Well maybe that vid is diving in too deep for now
Codfish, DLow, Remix. Enjoy yourself it’s worth it! make sure to record all reactions. Codfish and DLow 2018 and 2019 GBB compilations are the best of all time! 🤞
N0. On every single video like this I see a bunch of comments recommend these basic beattbooxers. 😂 I hate it, it's ALWAYS these 4 🤦🏻♀️😂 y'all never name anybody different
Just a little tip on the kicks is not to exhale, you lose power and clarity in the kick from the breath. Try to just use the air that's in the mouth already and channel it into the kick through the lips, all the power and clarity comes from the pop of the lips rather than the expulsion of air, if that makes sense.
thank you!
@@chrisliepe No problem! I love sharing my hobbies with people who are interested
new chris upload saving my day
7:19 YOU'RE SO CLOSE TO IT!!!
Thats the 'vibration bass' that Indicator is doing here.
Keep the pressure into the gritty sensation there, and force it out by placing even more pressure. It will hurt a lot hahahhahah, but that's how you initiate the sound. Good luck!
damn thats a professional review ,it would be very sattisfying to see other beatbox analysis
hey chris! I totally love your videos and i´m glad you made this video haha. I beatboxed myself for abt 2-3 years and tought everything myself and today i love metalcore and alr scream for 1-2 years. Your videos also helped me a lot and i think it´s kinda funny that you´re beggining to enjoy beatboxing now too haha. I recommend you to react to tom thums tedx staging bc that´s a classic video and i think most beatboxers (including me) started with that bc of that video
As a beatboxer and a fan of Chris Liepe who taught me how to scream, watching this video is unbelievabley awesome 🤩
Does that mean there's a chance that we might, maybe, hypothetically get Will to dabble in beatboxing; and answer my 10 year old question of what would happen if you combine the styles?
There's always a chance :) !!
I love that you’re into beatboxing now! The voice really comes alive with possibilities
Finally 🎉.
welcome to beatbox world ❤️🩹.
i hope u enjoy a lot by seeing all beatboxer doing beatbox ❤️🩹
As best as I can tell his bass isn't throat singing, rather just the 2nd subharmonic.Throat singing (throat bass) and it's 2nd subharmonic (vibration bass) sound fairly different and are definitely more popular and easier to learn.
Throat singing includes subharmonics.
@@andoletubeyes but it's important to differentiate because the techniques required are different. Throat bass is just that, a single sound produced in your throat. Vibration bass requires a more controlled throat bass and an additional technique above that. It's also more restrictive in every way than throat bass.
If I remember correctly Indicator described his base as a combo of throat bass and a 2nd subharmonic through the nose at the same time
I believe indicators bass is done using vocal fry with a subharmonic rather than throat singing which uses the false folds. No idea how he gets his fry to sound so full though.
@@sametrilogy5457 I don't believe he uses throat bass. In his tutorial he just did 2 regular subharmonic singing notes, one humming, one in the throat. He says he "combines them", though I don't believe it's actually possible to phonate two different fundamental tones at the same time, so my guess is that it's just his proprioceptive description of dropping into the second sub.
Wow such a great reaction! Your knowledge on the topic is so impressive and the way you break everything down makes me want to come back for more!
Probably been said but the "open hi hat sound" you're talking about around 12:00 is called the spit snare
And it is performed by creating a lot of pressure between the lips with a pocket of air and then suddenly forcing a small bit of air/pressure out
Or
Make a cartoon chewing tobacco spit sound and then do that super hard
I = Inhale
E = Exhale
A = Airless (no inhale or exhale)
3:47 Slizzer Roll, I
3:48 Inward K snare, I
3:50 Alien base, E (not throat singing)
7:48 pf snare, A (can be E to add more power)
9:16 spit snare, A
10:47 lip roll, A (can be I)
11:00 not sure, I think it is an inward clickroll, I
Note on high-hat and kick placement:
To keep the flow in a beat that includes some sort of vocal presence, high-hats (and by extension kicks) are combined with the word that is being said.
7:43 kick placement (A)
9:16 high-hat placement (in this case E)
11:41 The high-hat is E. If you listen carefully, you can here the vocals underneath the high-hat which is not humanly possible to do both an (I) high-hat while doing (E) bass.
For those people who haven't watched the Alien Bass tutorial, he is not doing throat singing (we call it throat bass). He layers 2 subharmonic notes (Through nose and mouth) to create a 3rd lower note.
Love this video! I've recently found beatboxing and been practising it myself for a couple months.
So it turns out the Alien Bass is actually not a Throat Bass, or more accurately, it's not a Vibration Bass which is a lower resonance throat bass combined with a vocal fry.
As the tutorial describes, it's a polyphonic sub-bass. He somehow finds two resonating sounds, one in his throat and one in his nose, and combines the two to create the Alien bass. But as far as I understand, it doesn't use your false folds like a throat bass. It actually uses your normal voice, which makes it sound even more insane!
I could also be slightly incorrect here, as I'm also fairly new, but hopefully this provides some useful context on how he does the bass :)
loved this reaction! You'd love 'Heartzel' Chris
And so the rabbit hole begins!!! Absolutely loved the reaction, and I think you would have a blast listening to the vocal anomalies of a beatboxer by the name of Stitch (Stitch - “Feels Like Nothing” GBB21 Wildcard is my recommendation).
He’s known for his polyphonic voice (which I think will melt your brain) and what he calls the “626 effect”. It’s absolutely insane.
the snare sound is the one that baffles me the most.
also the microphone definitely plays a big part!
btw the new zeal & ardor album just came out and if you haven't checked them out, you definitely should. you get a clash of different styles but also very interesting layered vocals and harmonies. the idea of the band was blues/gospel meets black metal. you might like it
Man I love the spit snare, it's one of the sounds that differ so much between bbxers. So many little things you can do make it sound "better."
Honest to god im watching some chris liepe vocal breakdowns, something draws me to check out a react to beatboxing short I saw some time ago... i go down that rabit hole...
an hour later i open my phone and go to youtube and theres chris liepe with his take on beat boxing and i honestly did not expect him to bring this much analysis and explanation to the table let alone reproduce some of the sounds so well... I should have known better by now this guy really knows what hes talking about when it comes to vocals/voice
w00t!!! More beatbox please!! 🙏
you picked an awesome video😊❤
I hope you get into beatboxing. You would be great!
Omg yaaaaass! More of this please?!😅🔥💯
Bigman - the window
You will thank me later
Hey there, I'm 90% sure that the bass he is using is not "throat bass singing" but true vocal folds subharmonics(in a deeper 2nd or maybe 3rd subharmonic level)
Idk if you know what this "true vocal folds subharmonic" technique is but it's kinda the same as throat singing but without using false vocal cords.
If you want more precise explanation about how it works and how to do it, I've had a passion about learning all these vocal techniques for 2 years so I can tell you all I know about few techniques used in bass singing and/or beat-box (not all of them).
I would love to share about it if you want me to, feel free to ask.
Welcome to the wonderful world of beatboxing. May you enjoy your time!
Hey Chris, I'm actually happy to see a bbx video here, I love your videos as always !
I kind of know how he does it, because I do it too, it's a subharmonic, but for me, is to go so low that it vibrates differently, and you close/contract your throat more to sound like this, hope this helps ! And for all of the other sounds, it's only practice, you'll get it someday !
PS : Because the subharmonic is not loud on mic, he is putting so much gain, bass, reverb, and all kind of stuff to sound like this
Heck yeah!
Awesome skillset to explore!
So here for this!
Always nice to see people (especially proffesionals on something very close like here beatboxing/vocals) who don't understand what's happenning but very excited of it. Trying to do something similar with 0 understanding how beatbox works is very fun, but trying to understand is still much better then doing nothing. Sorry for my bad english)
Are we gonna have an acapella cover of a song where the beats are from beatboxing?
That would be COOL
This is so similar to how i became infatuated with beatbox.... i just had to know how they did it! I can now do a lot of the sounds! not together and not with any musicality but just from a scientific exercise of learning it i really enjoyed!
More of beatboxing please 👏👏😁
Explore more beatbox, there are so much diferent vocal sounds, im a beatboxer for 2 years and its something worth exploring.
Chris head would explode if he watched "Enel - High Voltage"
i'm SO STOKED that you are touching on this topic!
That was very fun.
Can I suggest I don’t wanna know #beatbox talas stanin. That's viral beatboxing and singing together.
So happy to see this! There are two beatboxers that are reactors - Anthony Ray and Esphlume Reacts - if you want to pick their brains on this!
I cant to see you expirience more of the beatbox world. There are a lot of things to be learned.
No way that chris now listens to beatboxing 😭 i love ado i love beatboxing and chris just analyses it all
Chris, you should check out RIB:Yuhki from Imperial Circus Dead Decadence!
I would love to see you check out more beatboxing content! I heavily recommend D-low, one of the greats. He has tons of tracks, but he also did a really interesting breakdown of a lot of the different basslines that are used in beatbox(31!). Awesome to see you interested in this!
You picked a hell of a video to start with BBX, lol. Welcome to your new addiction, brother!
As a beatboxer myself, i think the "... An Alien" part is not using the outward throat bass nor the vibration bass, but instead he was using the "inward bass", where you INHALE to sorta make your throat vibrates more loosely hence the deeper, alien-ish voice.
10:46 That “fizzy” sound is called a lip roll! It’s caused by a similar motion mechanically to sucking on a straw in the corner of your mouth. Two main variants are a regular lip roll (no breath) and an inward lip roll (breathing in with the motion) Tons of tutorials explain it better, but essentially it’s a sort of 808/sub bass done with the lips that provides texture in bass heavy routines.
Hey, you should definitely check out Codfish beatbox. Amazing artist. I suggest Codfish-boulevard of broken dreams or 2018 wildcard.
This is great! I ran across an awesome beat boxer named Trung Bao via YT rabbit trail the other day, proceeded to watch all their stuff lol. Fav of theirs was Venom.
I was a beatboxer once before i actually got into rock and metal singing. It's actually funny to see Chris Liepe posting a video about beatboxing, i almost forgot about this 🤣
I would highly recommend reacting to D low. He is so versatile, plus he has lots of full vocal songs.
You might be interested in someone like Stitch. A lot of the more vocal oriented people I've seen take an interest in beatboxing have found his "Feels Like Nothing" wildcard incredibly interesting to analyze and dissect. He uses a couple of vocal techniques in it that no other beatboxers had really used much if at all to that point. Things like polyphonics with just one voice and no outside production. One cool thing about the "wildcard" performances you might come across on YT is that you can be assured they have very, very minimal production because there are analysts who scrutinize them for competition purposes.
If ya train continuously like this, I guess we'll see you winning the next BeatBox Championship.^^ 😉😉😉😉👍👍👍👍
Honestly, I think you’re gonna need at least a year of dedication to get his bass. It requires daily practice and mouth+nose polyphonics which are unexplored even by beatbox standards. He is probably the only person on earth who can do that sound consistently.
I suggest checking out some inward bass beatboxers like Vocodah/D-low. The technique is simple but fascinating, everybody has their own unique texture due to the sound requiring use of the entire throat.
There's a mini documentary called "We Speak Music" by a beatboxer named "Reeps One", in one episode he was studied by doctors and they have determined that beatboxers may in fact be directly evolving the human body. It's a great watch.
codfish has a great throat bass and vibration bass, I think you would fiond that interesting
The low voice vibration is actually inward. Inward bass is a very common technique in beatbox to achieve very low tones.
Love your analysis and reaction! You'll see a lot of similar sounds but everyone is unique in their style and execution. I recommend you check out some others like D-low, Colaps, River and Napom. Cant wait to see more!!
you’re in for a ride with this community lol
These deep throat bass notes can't be made with normal throat singing. You need to use a subharmonic technique to achieve this. Beatboxers usually call this technique vibration bass. And it's not achieved by pushing the larynx down. It actually is achieved with a more natural throat position
Check out Tom Thum and his looping beatboxing. His rendition of Portisheads Glory Box is amazing.
There is so many good beatboxers it's hard to choose what to suggest, but for that shock-factor I would go with Azel - Demuth. Other names to keep in mind/check out: D-Low, Napom, Codfish and DEN. That's just to name a few. Happy beatbox rabbit hole journey!
For Beatbox D-Low is probably a good way to start. He has some more "main stream" musicality
I love you Chris you are so you it's inspiring, I'd suggest using the slow speed function to break it down, that's how I do drums
9:44 My sleep paralysis demon
Watch D-low's 1 Beatboxer 30 bases to really blow your mind.
YES OMG I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE WATCHING BEAT BOXING
My boo vindicator still getting love with this legendary track tho tbh I would still win a battle with him much love big bro
For the inhale sound: Place one side of your tongue at the top of your mouth and inhale (use your tongue like a clarinet)
you could react to love. from wave to earth, its a very beautiful song, i love your videos :D
Sometimes it’s hard to differentiate depending on the tone and beatboxer but often deep basses like “I’m an alien” with speaking are down inwardly instead of outward. Popular “inward bass” beatboxers are Inertia, Vocodah, & Remix.
yay more of this pls
You should react to Stitch - "Feels like nothing" next, I guarantee you will be mind blown
One of the super crazy new schoolers that would chaos to listen to is ZVD!
omg finally, gotta check out vocodah and hippy
hehe lul btw what he does is not throat singing, its way more complicated
what he does is a poly sub bass which consists of 2 subharmonics (he has a tutorial on his channel)
throat singing is used in many different variations tho, the most used iteration is kargyraa (referred to as throat bass)
from the kargyraa you can hit a subharmonic to make it whats called vibration bass which is way lower then regular kargyraa, you can achieve this by combining kargyraa with hoomei ( in beatboxing mostly referred as jayton voice)
there is so much more vocal basses out there besides those, all the chest and inward basses, vocalised or not
false folds, epiglottis etc are all getting a run for their money in bbx
that „fizzy sound“ at the end is called liproll and with this there is also alot of variations, its mostly and inhaled bass sound, check out any of napoms vids and youll see
If you're going to get in to the beatboxing scene. Azel and his Demuth video with beatbox international is a great watch.
Yo you should do a dive into the singer of a band called hop along , she uses a wide range of vocal abilities and her range is crazy
the high hat is also outward:) there are plenty of other areas where he was able to breathe in, allowing him to use his high hats outward
the fizzy sound is a liproll ;)
Need to check out Enel - Feel My Bass. Another interesting bass sound.
The Teacher has become the humble student
If u are interested more in Throat singining, I would highly recommend you to check out Codfish
Listen you have to react to max, vocodah, hippy, remix they are insane beatboxers!
Recommending King Inertia -Collard Greens
