Well done to you, keep it up and maybe a version of Because by the Beatles would be interesting.👏👏👏

    What a gift! This past year has been horrible for me and my family , having to deal with a tragic, violent loss. I have been a vocalist all my adult life (I’ll soon be 70), and while the process of putting this song together was enlightening, the song itself brought tears to my eyes. Everyone, don’t gloss over the message of this song. Savour every moment, because no-one knows what may be around the next corner. Thank-you Spencer!

    Thanx a lot for your message at 5:12
    I was moved to tears. As a boy I wanted to sing but when the choirmaster pressed her ear to my mouth (to hear the individual person better) I was so excited that wrong notes came out.
    That's why she threw me out of the choir in front of everyone...
    That was years ago, but it still haunts me. ...and I've been fighting in my mind ever since. You can't imagine how difficult it is.
    Thank you for your healing words ❤

    Dear Spencer,
    I was hopping around You Tube and your channel appeared. I am producing music and have been working on a song with four part harmony using AI voices in Logic Pro.
    The first video I came across was the 5 tips on harmony and then this one on acapella voicing. What a coincidence! They are both very educational for me at this particular time and I will put them to good use in my production. I have subscribed and rang the bell and look forward to seeing your new videos. Thank you.

    Lots of talent. Your vocal quality reminds me of the singer from the theme song for Malcome in the Middle. This has lots of neat sonic qualities. You should add these massive vocal layers to your "regular" songs, also.

  • @StephanneZillions
    @StephanneZillions Місяць тому +1

    Thoroughly enjoyed both your teaching style and a cappella arrangement! +1 to all of the other compliments in the comments!
    If you’re looking for some constructive criticism/feedback on the song:
    - The beatbox voice sounded similar to a horse. (It was a bit distracting for me personally.) Perhaps a lower volume for that input track, or a lip buzz adjustment to a higher pitch might do the trick!
    - A few of the accompanying lines had abrupt entrances; perhaps a brief audio fade-in would smooth that out.
    Keep up the awesome work!

    A surprisingly thorough yet concise look at the process, thank you! I just made my second recording a couple of days ago, but only 6 of me. It came out . . . . not terrible. The timing was a lot easier than I thought it would be once organized! This gives me something to shoot for, thank you!
    Oh, I've got a limited bass-singer range, I'm going to have to figure out this falsetto thing; A G1 to an E4 is kind of limiting.

    And as an experienced A Capella singer, I have two questions: (1) how many voices does it require to sing this piece? And (2) do you sell or make available sheet music?

    New sub here. I would love to do an acapella record. Or EP. I can play basic chords to write simple songs, but I’ve always relied on another musicians to make it happen. I love writing lyrics, coming up with vocal melody and harmonies. I started on an EP using garage band. I’m learning. It feels a bit cheapened after working with real musicians in the past. Ugh. I’m frustrated. I want to sing but I don’t want to tour, or rely on band mates to show up and write when they all just wanted to party. I wish you lived here in Altoona, Pennsylvania because I’d so have you produce and collab with me! 😂. Also - not sure how your channel doesn’t have a million subs, but thank you for posting videos. If you check out Rain Must Fall “Radio” and “Borderline” you’ll see a couple songs I’ve written. We worked with The Ataris on that record. Loads of fun. Now I want to make a record but just for selfish reasons and to post on social media. Not to be famous. Just to be creative and show me as a songwriter.
