I love that I'm still keeping up with your stuff, from right around a year ago. This approach, is SO much different, from the other videos that you've shared and posted. Vowel modification is that key, that has unlocked SOOO much of my improvements, that have been noticable to others. Along with tonal control, etc. I love you, and what you do, brother! 🤘💜
As I've been learning to use my purple register more I actually do see how it feels more natural to the way my voice wants to operate. I am not a very expressive person and my singing voice reflected that until I began to learn these principles. I am actually working on covers for songs I never would have touched in the past.
Wow! This lesson brings celestial power to the CHAOS! I was going to pay for a lesson just like this and K is chucking it out like “have uh chup brew !” Beached As!🙏😎😛💥

I wonder how much time I've wasted chasing vocal technique that I was already doing. I've always had that CT stretch, and only recently did I realize that many people don't. Yet I kept thinking there was some strange middle voice I needed to find.
Hi Kegan. I'm unsure if your method solely benefits this 'rock' style of singing that you often refer to such as all the singers you mention. I love 'Free' and 'bad Company', as the way Paul Rogers sings 'All Right Now', well who wouldn't be hypnotised by that voice. But that isn't the style singing I'm trying to develop for my voice, for the songs I want to sing. Though I do want to get that dynamism and strength and range these singers have, that you mention. i.e. the way you sang that except at 5:30sec is more my thing. I thought you sounded great there and not strained, and I think you were reaching an A4 (I'm unsure of the demarkation of the ranges. Either A4 or an A5) Was that solely a chest voice you were using in this example at 5:30sec. Did you reach a A4? with chest voice?. If so that is impressive and this is the sort of singing I'd like to reach.
Hey Jude! The A4 at 5:38 is obviously pushed, strained and completely unsustainable for me - it's just out of reach. Context is also important; have you heard Bowie sing Lady Stardust? His voice is akin to mine in terms of type and lower range as a baritone, and I'd say he actually sings it brighter, thinner and sharper than I'm doing here. I personally don't like that unnaturally pushed tone (like I'm trying to make up for some instability in my masculinity by yelling), and to the listener it's also not likely your favourite singers are going for this tone either. So, to answer your questions. I was slightly flat of an A4 there, and no, that's not really my full chest voice as I was also modifying the vowel, so you can call that my upper mixed voice in my natural range/tone if you like. My highest note in pure chest voice is probably a C4, maybe D4 if I'm reaching a bit. However, f you want to push like that, I'm unfortunately not your guy. If you want to sing in that range for many years to come in a consistent, reliable, healthy and 'better' way, then perhaps my approach might be for you. Best - K
@@FoundationVocalStudio Thanks Kegan for this explanation of what was going on for you while you sung this phrase. Listening to you sing this excerpt I didn't hear anything unnatural about it, though I guess this is a subjective reaction one has to any of the arts. Admittedly yes you did sound 'pushed' and slightly out of your range during the 2nd phrase of this example, but in the 1st phrase where you were singing around the B4 - D4 I think?, you sounded unstrained to my ear; though obviously you know how you felt while singing. When you said in that example that you were 'feeling uncomfortable', I was surprised. Anyway you've given me something to think about. I'm actually not out to sing A4's in a chest voice. For one that would be impossible for me no matter how much attention I gave it. I just used it as an example as this was the highest note you hit in this example. No , what I want to achieve is to be able to sing in an open warm chest voice as high as I can, and if I could hit a E4 or G4 that would be absolutely fantastic as these are the higher range of notes I usually include in any melody I may write in the songs I write. But most of all I don't want to be limited to any one technique, I also love the sound of falsetto given its applied in a way I like. I'm going to use an example here that may sound 'camp'; excuse me if I sounded as if I was pre-empting what you may think but anyways. So, put in an analogous way a song could be seen as a cake, it could be a 'lemon' cake, a sponge cake, a wedding cake, pavlova, whatever. And with all these cakes you have different icings ontop, with different subtle flavours in different amounts. A song may be thought of like this. You could have a heavy 'Mud' cake or a light tangy lemon cake where they all have their own ingredients and flavours and if done right, 'wow', where it could only have been that one cake that was suitable for that occasion. So I would most like to get as many techniques under my belt as possible. I'm also not a natural singer and struggle with it but hearing some peoples opinions of late, including your own, gives me a sense of optimism that if you just allow yourself to grasp whats going on in its most simple way then you may very well be able to get on top of it. My biggest issue is my larynx choking me out anywhere above an E4. Thanks Kegan. I didn't mean to respond in such a lengthy way and I certainly don't expect you to respond , as you were already extremely generous in your last response. Thanks Kegan.
No worries at all. I often direct singers with a similar view to some covers I've done - czcams.com/video/yoBAbLUM2ss/video.htmlsi=FNW4ZSXb48a41r4U&t=46 or perhaps even this one czcams.com/video/Z1C-sHI5JQU/video.html&ab_channel=BVS-FoundationVocal
@@FoundationVocalStudio Now this is my sort of thing 'Slip Away'. Really dig the effects you put over the guitar during the instrumental section. Great sound.
Hey. Long time no see. I always like watching your new stuff. What you are saying here is what actually confuses me right now. I worked really hard blending the register but every time I hit the chest ceiling (E4) I switch to head voice. Even though I’m becoming pretty good to do the transition smoothly it always sound like 2 different voices. Now you are saying using the head voice mechanism without actually going into head voice. This is very confusing to me. I just can’t figure it out. 🤷♂️ Here. This is exactly me right now. From 5:00 to 5:30 🤦♂️ czcams.com/video/TBP8rBReSwg/video.htmlsi=mmGdv_pMTASw30xR
I sang in my younger years and my range is not high. I love music and have a great ear and i gotta say this sounds horrible. You must work within your natural range! Lower the key but if you struggle people will know and its not good.

One hour of listening to his lessons online and i have made mind blowing improvements
“Purple register if you like” 😂. So good.

haha - 'purple register' is catching on!
Always finding amazing creative ways to teach the right thing and dispel misinformation man, great as usual!
Cheers
You're too kind Leo, you're the man!! K
Great video as always
Will be trying this today. Great tip
Wow!
This lesson brings celestial power to the CHAOS!
I was going to pay for a lesson just like this and K is chucking it out like “have uh chup brew !”

Came for the high notes…
Stayed for the Valiant!🇦🇺👍🏻😎

An acoustic cover of Lady stardust from you would be so sick!
Yeah, would love to do that, it's my favourite Bowie song... among about 20 others ha. K

Hey mate! So, slightly go to that heady sound BEFORE the E4 and land back on the note. The key here is to learn to use them together! K
@@FoundationVocalStudio
Thanks.
I struggle with that. For me it like all or nothing.
Head or chest.
I sang in my younger years and my range is not high. I love music and have a great ear and i gotta say this sounds horrible. You must work within your natural range! Lower the key but if you struggle people will know and its not good.
I'll be sure to lower the key of all songs I'm singing from now on, I simply wasn't aware of how horrible I sound - but now I know! Best - K
