how to practice singing and find your style!

[@xole]

what are your singing practices and techniques? i read all comments :) ✨

[@carlosrayo6092]

Okay i have a little question is it possible to practice singing every 2 weeks? cause to be honest i have guitar practice along with drawings and so on for 2 weeks each

[@madslave614]

honestly just singing along to songs helps a lot in the long run. never did it to learn to sing but lately i have noticed that i am able to hit notes easier tan ever before

[@xole]

yes this is so true! it's like if you were listening to a guitar song and playing along with the guitar, it's practicing!

WARM. UP. YA VOICE! You wouldn't (shouldn't) lift heavy weights without warming up, so give your voice the same respect - you'll be thankful down the line. "Good Morning Voice" on youtube is one of my favorite warmups to do. Learn how to use your body to sing properly - from your toes to your chest and head, learn how to support and control that instrument. Finally, be true to yourself and your voice. Don't try to sing out of your natural register because you want to sound like your favorite artist. Your own voice is beautiful and it's what makes you unique. Master and love your own instrument.

[@xole]

big facts brother! love the words about being true to your voice. so very true

[@KeannaNicole]

Speaking from the experience, karaoke is pretty effective!!

[@xole]

ah that's a great one too keanna! i'll trust any advice from you haha

[@nickpaige8178]

I've noticed that harmonizing (usually in a falsetto since my best singing is voice is pretty soft) while listening to other people's music has helped me tremendously with creating vocal stacks. It feels reeeeeally nice too once you get good at it.

[@xole]

yesss it's so much fun and helps a bunch! ✨

[@natty7102]

You're such a bro and just a genuinely nice and modest dude. Please keep doing you and keep up the good vibes. I feel like I'm hanging out with a friend and just jamming and chilling.

[@xole]

[@jakemiller1887]

I don't really do any specific workout for my voice,only occasionally,mostly try to improvise and create something new while singing something :D

[@xole]

yes! improvisation is so helpful in songwriting. that's usually where all of my melodies start ✨

[@goti6539]

Yes Xole, perfect timing! I’m literally about to take singing lessons in a few weeks time! Oh and btw I don’t know Where I’ve heard this, but I heard that when you’ve gotten really good at singing and really good at making and mixing songs, you need to master them as well. I Think you know Where I’m heading with this😂

[@xole]

yes so happy to hear that! and lmao you keep getting more creative every comment 😂

[@xole]

yes i painted those a few years ago. some of my favorite albums ✨

[@TooShawn]

I'm really shy by the fact that I use auto tune lmao. thanks for making it clear that it's aight cause everyone uses it :>

[@xole]

yes! keep using it and it will sound better and better! 💫

[@N.Ergn74]

I just started singing while playing guitar so this really helps👍, could you maybe look into Jack Staubers Music I think you would really enjoy making music in his style.

[@xole]

[@ngaming8406]

[@ngaming8406]

I would really like to see you make like dua lipa kind of music or bts type

[@xole]

@@ngaming8406 yeah a really poppy beat would be great! thanks for the suggestion 💫

[@_lynnloo9988]

any tips on how to naturally sing riffs and runs + better vibrato?😔

[@xole]

hmm i wish i could give advice on that right now but i'm working on the same thing. the youtube exercises have exercises that help with that though. hopefully i'll be able to make a video like that in the future! ✨

[@_lynnloo9988]

@@xole aw its okay thank you! you’ve helped me a lot in my music journey

[@noodles3768]

Do you stream on the weekends? Its hard to watch your streams, because im in a diffrent time zone

[@xole]

yeah i do stream on weekends and throughout the week on twitch! 💫

[@gingerlight7819]

can you do a video about how to make music like planttvibes? i really love her music

[@xole]

oooohhh what a cool suggestion! thank you so much ✨

[@tortle6497]

How do I write indie chord progressions for guitar

[@xole]

use a lot of 7th and 9th chords i would say 💫

[@Keppy301]

hey xole, just wanna ask, I find that have a problem on high key aka straining. how to overcome that?

[@xole]

hmm, i'm really not qualified to answer this lol, so hopefully someone can provide better insight. but on the notes that are slightly above my range, i start getting more light and airy on delivery. so my voice becomes more of a whisper than singing. this helps me stay in key when i hit those notes, and honestly sounds great when i record it! idk if that matches your vocal style but hope it helps! 💫

[@Keppy301]

It truly matches my stylee! Thanks for the advice! You got yourself a sub!🤘@@xole

[@SpecialAbonnent]

When did you start being able to sing on beats aka in key? And was singing on beats the key to do this or the daily excercises on youtube?

[@xole]

that's really up for interpretation when my voice started sounding better on beats. i'd say after a few months the autotune stopped sounding so roboty. then i started doing the daily exercises and it really starting improving from there!

[@SpecialAbonnent]

@@xole Thank you, really helpful

[@deadnameisdead]

Youre voice doesnt get better over time Me who is sick and cant even speak

[@xole]

lol well in that case... 😂 hope you get better!
