This is not specifically what you're doing here, but I would love to see an explainer video on exactly what mix or mixed voice feels like. I have watched so many videos the have the person singing in the mix.. but no real mechanics on how to achieve it or what it feels. I'm a unique subject as I'm a true bass with tons of high range. Just can't find the mix. If you have a vid like that.. lemme know. ;)

[@eternalwizard776]

Thanks to you, I can do harsh vocals now and it’s really building my confidence! I’ve always been a metal head and love singing but there’s an extra kind of confidence you get when you can be a total badass imo 🖤🤘 Can you do an intro to making covers video possibly? Or DAWs for beginners? Mics for beginners etc? I’m so bored with using karaoke apps to record and have stopped making content because of it :( I’d love to join a band someday but obviously stand no chance if I can’t figure out how to record anything or make a demo even 😬😭 not to mention I’m already 33 so I’m off to a late start…

I like matt honeycutts unclean vocalization. It's sounds really natural. Many people learn to scream but they don't perfect in a personal way and it's sounds artificial.

The videos have helped, but doing my first video-call lesson with you was fantastic. I learnt more in this first hour than I have over the past several years going through the many scream and grit youtube tutorials! Keep the content coming and I STRONGLY recommend everyone book a lesson to see how much more you can learn from Mary!!

[@voicehacks]

Thanks Jan! You totally rock and we are gonna keep leveling up at lessons!

[@metalground212]

Thank you!!! I have been trying to improve my dining techniques. And this is very helpful

Ive been struggling trying to learn just how to make sounds. The lifting of the arms makes a big difference in getting the sound Im aiming for. I wish I could afford lessons with you! Youre truly amazing

[@NeededGR13F]

Idk if there's like a rule of thumb on this, or if it depends on the anatomy of each person, but roughly how much blood should I be spitting up once I get the technique right? Btw, that's cool what you did with your eyebrow, I thought I was watching an old vid for a minute.

[@r3alsenshi]

Thank you for your help. I've tried it two days ago and I felt pain, but I've come back and I would like to believe that I'm starting to get it. I'll keep on practicing to perfect it. It's hard, but it's not possible.

THANK YOU GIRL

[@Rosannasfriend]

Just to simplify what I think you’re saying about keeping the cords open so that there’s no tone, I saw an interview with Melissa Bonny on the charismatic voice… And she said basically it’s like you’re not using the vocal cords at all. You’re basically pushing up air from the stomach straight through the mouth. No vocal cords at all, or at least that’s how you think of it. I guess that’s when you’re ending up using the vestibular folds or something. She also said that thing about sighing or groaning as if you’re frustrated, for example when your mom is calling you while you’re playing video games.

[@voicehacks]

Yes! She is a really good false cord screamer and I would say that is an accurate description!

[@jaidentufts717]

[@RitualBlood]

I'm just curious - How does the hands in the sky/half jumping jack assist in getting the right sound? is it meant to help engage your diaphragm or use more breath?

[@voicehacks]

Yes it will automate your breath support for now until you learn to do it

[@JACKSONPRYORBENNETT]

This is helping a lot!! Able to start accessing the sound finally, thank you 🙏

[@KyleBurnsMusic]

Has been a long year. I really appreciate this im gonna have to hit you up for lessons. I clipped part of a slipnot song. I followed coreys tech of just doing one solid scream but idk i had covid at the time and im trying to get cleaner with it

NO WAY YOU ARE CYBIL?! I stream DBD everyday. I just commented on your inhale video. (Been doing inhales for almost 15 years and I explained more in depth on that video) but that’s SO cool!!

[@isolatedmortalityband5718]

I've only started this a few weeks ago, but I've been recording vocal templates on my songs so I know how many riff repetitions I need, etc. but I've noticed that my vocals "run out" after a verse or so. Is tat anything to worry about? Will that change over time?

[@bobu5213]

So I have been able to scream for a while and doing it on and off for about two years when I have the time. Recently I wanna get more serious with it and really properly learn to unlock the full fry. The problem I just can't get rid of is, I just can't get my throat (and larynx) to relax completely while making a fry scream. I have been a singer for almost 10 years and I know the feeling of relaxing the larynx and actively pulling it down slightly but I just can't seem to make both the fry scream sound and have a neutral larynx and relaxed throat at the same time. What can I do?

[@chaosuntamed5805]

Ever since I got introduced into the heiver metal .. yeah I need to learn how to scream and growl. Hopefully I can learn with these videos!!!

[@therevolution91]

I simply always sing inwardly. I can sing like Brian Johnson & Axl Rose like that without even practicing & it sounds completely like I would shout outside with amplification. It is not exactly like inward singing. More like a controlled singing. (not too loud because of the distortion in the voice) You can regulate the rasp in your voice better like that. (otherwise you wouldn‘t have control of it when you sing too loud) I am guitarist originally. (more or less) And I use this technique like a distortion channel for guitars.

[@calebs1297]

I cannot get this without using my throat for some reason. And it always cracks.

[@rkopodcast]

I have been watching your channel since october of last year and made a pause for a while on learning harsh vocals cuz of busy schedule but by the end of february and beginning of march I got back on track and for now my breath control is much better then is was last year.

[@tomcursed298]

Can you give me a tip about my fry scream. I can do a raspy sound but it is not continuous. There's always a slight pause during the raspy sound

Hi Mary, Good to see you.

[@voicehacks]

Hello!!

[@dashobradors]

Amazing tutorial!!! 🤟🏻👹

[@damonr734]

Hi Mary I was wondering if you could help me work around a problem I have So I've done vocals on and off for a few years And I find it easy when they are my own songs but if they are someone else's or a song from my favorite artist I have issues with hitting the right melody due to being tone Def any ideas how to work around this

[@voicehacks]

Hey there! There is NO such thing as being tone deaf. If you are actually hearing impaired, that's different. But if you can hear a healthy amount of decibels and your ears are functioning normally there is no such thing as "tone deaf" or "tone deafness". Some people are more skilled than others at matching singing pitches but every human all day long is speaking in a variety of expressive pitches, making being "tone deaf" not really a real thing. I would sign up for some clean singing lessons and work on clean singing exercises. Practice on modern scales and intervals will make you sing more in tune and help your skills for matching pitches on songs. But this will take some effort and some clean singing lessons and practice. You can improve on it though, it does take work but no one is actually "tone deaf" if their hearing is healthy.

[@ancatiurean6955]

A lot of air seems to be sent out in this process - how do you manage not getting breathless in like 3 seconds? Also, is it normal to get slightly dizzy from it? 😄

[@voicehacks]

Very very common to get light headed with this at first. Try staying seated and going slowly for a while before doing them standing. Also my breathing tutorials might help speed up the “getting used to it” part. Best wishes!

[@damonr734]

So I've been doing harsh vocals on and off for 13 yrs But for some reason lately when I do them It seems harder for me to do then when I was younger And my throat keeps producing alot of phlegm from doing screams now And I keep getting laryngitis Any ideas what could be causing this or going on ?

[@voicehacks]

Sounds like a medical issue that you should see an ENT about! Could be allergies

[@smouchysmouch]

Hey Mary love your videos, was wondering how long do you recommend practicing False Chords as a total beginner? I do get that scratchy sensation when practicing and I just want to make sure I am not overdoing it. Thank you for your easy tutorials

[@voicehacks]

I would say about 30 minutes is the limit for someone new 🤘

[@smouchysmouch]

@@voicehacks Thanks Mary your the best!

[@rjxaragich311]

Thank you, Guru! 😘🙏🤟 I've been learning your harsh vocals (false cord scream-growl) tutorials since last month from your videos. They're truly helpful for me as singing is my hobby. I really wanted to sing my favorite metal songs since a long time, but I wasn't able & confident to do that. Now I can growl or sing in strong harsh vocal that fits to my voice type (though I know it still probably sound imperfect or not quite smooth) 😅. Recently I covered Equilibrium, Arch Enemy, Cradle of Filth, Slipknot, As I Lay Dying, All That Remains songs, & even the operatic-soprano ones such as Epica, After Forever, Within Temptation & Nightwish (Tarja era) to Starmaker app 😁😆 THANKS A BUNCH, no, THANKS ZILLION ZILLION TIMES for your tutorials 💙💚💜 I love your channel!! Stay safe & may you be blessed with wellbeingness always. 😊
