[@aineomaille4332]

@@underkoffer1621 ​ Forcing/faking it? What? It's just a vocal technique. That's like saying someone's forcing/faking it when they change the pitch of their voice to hit different notes on purpose. Is your complaint that she clearly doesn't have a throat ravaged by smoking the fuck out of it? 'Cause that's the only way you're not ‘forcing’ it, when you have no ability to do anything else.

[@vizon-aryproductions6191]

hi rob, i have a challenge here that i would love to see become a REALITY... make a song that incorporates video, sound , and lighting into one flowing entity. ( SYNESTHESIA) Objective: make the motion of camera movements corresponds to the sound, where the sound corresponds to light (making whats called synesthesia) and light corresponds to sound spatially. each individual octave of sound you assign a color, as well as chords, and then blend all sound , video cinematic moves that flow to the sound , into an amazing theatrical music piece . TL/TR: assign individual colors to each octave of sound, assign your chords into ONE COLOR per chord, where motion sound color , blend into a synesthetic music piece where motion flows with all three into one entire entity ( sound motion and color all at the same time). ( think of the aurora borealis/northern lights into a song, where motion of the camera flows with it). you can use visual effects to assign color into light and what would be cool is if you explore synesthesia into keys and melodies!!! (i hope i didnt confuse you all if anyone can explain what i am trying to portray better write below) thanks rob, YOUR MOVE
