I’ve been studying McCreeys vocal style for a couple weeks now and I genuinely love it! I have been slowly practicing each day with this tutorial and another one I found and I’ve noticed some killer results. Keep on rocking

[@omerot387]

thank u mr bald guy ... best tutorial i've seen

[@Dave_OGG]

With no previous experience with vocals, after watching this video I made a pretty gross sound and it was awesome. Very well explained and helpful video

[@TheInfernalwing]

CJ mcreery is the main reason why I looked for this kind of tutorial. I want to achieve how he did his Tunnel Throat in King Ov deception

[@ragegrowler8367]

This is interesting. I will try this technique in future practices.

How does dickie allen hold it so long? Like in. Blasphemian near the end?

[@sorensedit7730]

Hello Jack of all Trades :) Breath management is a huge deal when it comes to extreme vocal styles :) - I can not seem to find anyone doing it live, so I do believe that it is a bit of studio tricks going on, not that it would be impossible but can not find anyone doing it in a single breath, so there is probably a breath or two hidden in there :) All the best Søren Sedit, Headteacher at RMS VI

[@Shaqiliciouss]

@@sorensedit7730 During DIckie's interview with Kardavox Academy he said it was in 1 take, and that all the airflow changes as he went deeper made it easier for him to hold than just one continuous technique. A cover by 'Dr. Hell' also demonstrated that it's definitely possible :) I definitely wouldn't be able to pull that off haha

[@sorensedit7730]

@@Shaqiliciouss As I said not saying it's not possible, but it's quite a thing to do :) -- I will soon record a new video about Tunnel throat. A lot has happened in the world of Tunnels, so its time to make a new video, and talk about it all :) All the best! Søren Sedit

[@Shaqiliciouss]

@@sorensedit7730 it's definitely impressive haha. Looking forward to the new video!

He has big ass lungs man. Also breath control for sure! Haha

I saw will Ramos doing this and now I want to do this

Sounds absolutely amazing!!!

Bud ima need you to redo this cause the new guy is a fuckin beast and his highs are a godsend

[@sorensedit7730]

Hello Deadxbyxdawn :) I will soon make make new video about Tunnel throat, the thing is that it changes A LOT when doing higher pitches, so we could actually call it something else at that point, but wait and see :) I'll soon make a follow up video, now that I have done a lot of playing around with it, to see new approaches and ways to use it :)

[@deadxbyxdawn306]

@@sorensedit7730 woah I honestly wasn’t expecting a reply man, thank you ^-^ I’ll definitely be waiting for your update! I’m excited to hear more

@@deadxbyxdawn306 haha :D Thank you so much :) I do what I can to reply to actual questions etc. :) I will do best to help understand the more modern ways of doing tunnels:) 🙏

[@andromedaanarchia]

very good video, soren! 🤘

[@Neocasturn]

If you listen to a band like sheer terror you can recognize some similarities between that early hardcore rumble and tunnel throat techniques

[@nrt1759]

Thank man, very helpful video

[@marcus2239]

So you make taco tounge and growl from diaphragm while having throat control?

[@namir4113]

Good job very good

[@MiracleDiengdoh]

How to activate that sound?

[@sorensedit7730]

There will soon be a video up, where I explain how to activate the Ventricular folds (False folds) - Kind regards Søren RMS VI

U sing throat too I thought u only sang clean

[@MiracleDiengdoh]

@@dylanmcreey7117 yes I do but still trying to get the proper sound

[@NicholasJens]

If you’ve ever watched the princess bride, the bishop (“mawwige is what bwings us togevah today”) totally uses his tongue in this way to get that silly voice. Also the Chewbacca vocals are done using uvula rolls and this mouth shape and tongue technique.

[@sorensedit7730]

Hello Nicholas :) There is no Uvula involved in this style :) there is such a thing as vowel placement, which is a different thing, on top of that I do not roll the tongue, because it would be a very different sound showing up :) for this style if will need the U shape throughout the phonation :) I do not know the reference you are mentioning but will look it up :) All the best!

[@sorensedit7730]

Look how old this video is :) - I have some new videos coming soon, about Tunnel throat :)

[@justinunger3526]

I'm not saying the video's creator is wrong, but I'd definitely recommend moving your tongue around to find different tones and such. I started doing tunnels with my mouth very open. Back of tongue to roof of mouth, still a u shape but not as extreme. Sounds more like dickie Allen when I do it that way.

[@sorensedit7730]

2:04... the back of the tongue is raised... :) It can be moved backwards yes :) I will soon make an updated version, because there are a lot of new things that can be done with tunnel throat :)

[@dannyd7426]

It’s the Professor Zoidberg impression

[@nemesyssss]

Hello, I have difficulties getting that right U shape and keep it like this when putting the tip of the tongue, it just becomes flat, I get a very silly sound but can't really go all that low like you, that might be the U shape difference. Any tips ?

[@sorensedit7730]

Hello 👋 :) the thing is that it is impossible for me to know what you might be doing a bit incorrectly without hearing it as well :) So of you need any more help, then feel free to book a lesson. Otherwise I will soon have a new video about tunnels, becuse a lot of evolution has happened from when I created this video:) All the best! Søren Sedit, Headteacher at RMS Vocal Institute

[@SynysterPlague7]

Helps when I align the sides of my tongue with my top teeth

No, Søren is from Denmark 😊

“And now he is in Lorna Shore” this didn’t age well

[@swop1571]

Tunnel throat isnt a distortion. Its a mouth position. Youre using false folds.

[@sorensedit7730]

Hello Swop :) - Styles of gestures in the oral cavity also has a name, Twang being a good one to mention here, as well as Squeals etc. If you are trying to say that Tunnel throat does not change the amount of vibrating tissue in the voicebox, then you are incorrect, for example, air distortion makes everything vibrate in the voicebox, but not in a way that we can control. The Ventricular folds (false vocal folds) on their own do not do as much as you might think, one of the main reasons is that those folds do not have muscle fibers, so we can only close them and let them vibrate. The word distortion is an odd one, people normally say rock distortion about a very voiced sound where the ventricular folds are included. Maybe distortion should be used more to explain fry with, however words are added and changed ALL the time :) All the best!

[@nadianosow3465]

I can not even get the tongue like that

[@D_Ranasigha]

Explain the vocals of Travis Ryan from cattle decapitation.. His tunnel throat and cleanish vocals.

[@sorensedit7730]

His cleans are very easy, its simply done with headvoice. - The tunnels.. hmm.. I dont remember hearing him do tunnels, he probably does.. I will need to re-listen their songs :) -- All the best!

[@metaltuberLucindrielnephilim]

i cant make that shape

[@bazookallamaproductions5280]

saying "the heaviest" is completely subjective. 🙄

[@sorensedit7730]

Hello Bazooka :) I do get what you mean :) but what I am talking about here is what we looked at when doing our research in France with one of the leading voice scientists :)
