  • Sounds like a dizzy mosquitoe there. Lol.

  • DO you know if it's possible for a bass singer to sing a high C without falsetto?

  • LOL! Why do men think falsetto is part of their vocal range??? First of all, its not the actual vocal chords working when you sing in falsetto! It's the mucous lining around the chords, hence the word falsetto=false! And Its not like men could use such high pitch in any formal type of singing! Its cool that you can reach those high notes but sorry to break it to you! But u do not have a 6 octave range! lol

  • @Marvinglz Do you know if it's possible for a bass who can reach the lowest note he did to also be able to hit a high C without using falsetto? How many octaves would that be?

  • @Kotlettbengt Of course it's possible! There are many singers who are basses and can sing higher notes than a tenor even! Range has little to do when determining classification. So just because you're considered a bass doesn't mean you can't sing a male high C, in full voice, or any other high note for that matter. Practice doing scales up and down your range.

  • @Marvinglz I'm so glad to hear that, thank you! :D Do you know any examples of such singers or a link showing someone displaying such a range?

  • @Kotlettbengt thanks for your question. I can sing low but regularly sing high C without falsetto. please see my channel Gethsame (sing many high Cs and all in full voice). I also attempt a top Bb (Soprano Top Bb) in 'Moving too fast' at 3:49. Of course 6 octaves is just messing around and using falsetto but I dont sing like this. Bottom C to high C is only 3 octaves. Bottom to low, low to middle and middle to high.

  • USAhshAUHSuhsuHASHasuhaSHU

  • HOLY FUCKING SHIT

  • Your highest notes are horrible, and...

    VOCAL FRY????!!! I could also reach a C0 with vocal fry lol

  • jajaja que cagada jajaja me cago de la risa jajajaja

  • pareces un gato maullando

  • I like this!

  • stop concentrate in range tricks as whistle and throat voice, that has no values for anyone and concentrate on your singing, which is not good good in any sense and needs a lot of work (I saw other videos)

  • the >F2< (That is not an f0 lol) was legit. From there it was total fry.

  • This was good, I dont understand why so many dislikes

  • OOOO ooooo aAAAAA faktır git

  • You inhaled the air to perform the Highest ones, didn´t you?

  • thousands of notes all produced in the wrong way...what about using 3 octaves in the best way and leaving all those insignificant freaky solutions? -.-

  • I've always been curious to find out if it's possible to increase your lower vocal range. I'm 21 years old, is it possible?

  • nope

  • What voice do you have? Tenor, baritone or bass? I know you have a big range but was is your voice type?

  • @mark88bon he is a bass, very likely a basso profundo to be precise, how else would he be able to reach the 0 octave at all?

  • @TomTomG00 Even tenors can hit these low notes (see brett manning) it sounds like 'vocal fry'.

  • so... this it's not a POWER range?

  • Please define "true" vocal range. There is no such thing, we can simply comment on what we think are your good notes. I'd say that Eb5 (0:18) to A2 (0:43) sounds quite good, so roughly standard tenor range. Most of your bottom two octaves were fry, very strong fry, but definitely not full voice.

  • Fake

  • fuck off true vocal range, this is awesome i would have that range :( congrats

  • @polarkreis201 thanks

  • OH GUYS! he mustve forgot that you need perfect tone while singing 6 octaves

  • @man1of1steel Yes, tone not high on my list of priorities when after new years eve party i decided to show some of my friends i could produce 6 octaves

  • Questa sì è una vera stronzata!!!!.qqquei stridolini sovracuti non possono essere considerati suoni cantabili.Asini!!!!

  • The high notes are horrible whistlings, certain grave notes are belched but impressive!

  • Dayum, your fry vocals are strong. Rare to find a vocalist who can actually match their fry to notes. Seems about three octaves of this is full (around F1-F4 sounds full to me, maybe slightly more or less) as well, which is definitely an above average range.

  • @UnholyMessiah555 Thanks for your comment. I think it depends what you cann full voice. Also here I switch from a very weak whistle at quite a low note for me as I find it dificult to go from whistle to head voice. I can sing full up to Bb5 - please see 'Moving too fast' in my channel. I'd like to know if you agree its both full and Bb5 as its quite short. Thanks

  • horrible lol

  • whatever your vocal athletic ability, it sounds to me that you have a rich, beautiful and powerful baritone voice. I'd like to hear you sing with it.

  • @billcarr54 I'm sure in the future I will post proper songs. But for now this is just me playing in my experimental voices. With the stills camera I use to take video and no real audio setup its difficult to capture real tonal quality here but that doesn't matter so much for the stiff I'm posting at the moment. Thanks for you comment

  • SOME FAKE NOTES

  • sei un cane...

    

  • Sounds like a walrus giving birth.

  • lol lots of fake notes

  • KK em voz plena ele pega só um Bb4

  • @TheOnix123 Why are you Classically trained people constantly Jealous?

  • @elieXeoslebbos I'm not jealous mate, I sing my way and let others sing the way they choose. It's not my vocal chords that get hurt you know.

  • woowww i wanna know when u take singing classes they help u prepare ur voice to do all those sounds from llloooowww and up..??

  • @spanishboo I don't do this in singing classes just on here for fun. I only work on Bb1 to Bb5 in lessons, which is all I think I'd ever use for songs.

  • nice one i have just lost 2 of my ovtaves doing to sickness and now have the range E2-Ab6 first it was E2-B8.

    but yeah i will get those back

  • @luukxd123 Wow. I'm guessing you are girl not boy. Are you going to post some scales? E2-B8 is very good range.

  • @MrIanLB no i=I am a boy actually and I just found out how to sing in my low register and yeah i will try to do a scale some time

  • @MrIanLB I would think that if you are actually a trained vocalist you would know that an E2 is almost non existent in women for singing. As well as you should know that a B8 is non existent in the singing world. That is higher than the world record of Adam Lopez, at an Eb8, by over four notes.

  • Oh and what's your highest note in full voice like an Eb4? And full voice low note a D3?

  • @luukxd123 Haha you are a fucking joke. B8 that's higher than the world record. It's one thing to brag but don't fucking bullshit beyond bullshit.

  • @hermygagala hey hold in a sec sweet dear,

    i did actually reached the B8 it was only a whistle and i am against it that people counted it in their vocal range but my coash keeps pushing me to post it so i did post the comment but for me my range is E2-E6 now and i want to keep it that way and i never ment to brag.

    and to start swearing show's thtat your incontent of respect or handle other peoples comments

  • @luukxd123 Dude that's past the world record so I really doubt that. And by the way it is impossible to reach the 8th octave in anything but whistle register.

  • @hermygagala dude okay not to be bragging but mayne you will not doubt me anymore if i tell you everything: i am classically trained for 7 years, i studied music in finland for 4 years. and i learned as good as everything about the solfege system so I actually did an B8

  • @luukxd123 I still don't believe you because that's above the world record. I would believe a C8 or maybe even a D#8 but a B8 is bullshit that's only one note away from the 9th octave which has never been reached by any human on record.

  • @hermygagala wait i will go search on my own cpu for you now to get the record and check it right away cause we have a program with a 10 octave range on it so we will check very clearly it will take 5 minutes.

  • @hermygagala we checked it properly and it was indeed lower my appologies to everyone.

    it was a D8

  • @luukxd123 Still quite impressive. I didn't mean to be offensive, just found it very hard to believe.

  • think u could have turned the tv off

  • @gogo4gaga100 Sorry just playin' around. Didn't think this many people would be interested or I would have recorded properly.

  • @ppbananap I think its a combination of the two. Technique, practice and good vocal muscle control all help. But none of this stuff is any use, other than a party trick, if you can't sing real songs. So I'd always advise to focus on singing real songs. Good luck

  • #horrible

  • His low notes are incredible. His high notes are ridicously stupid. - He is squealing, straining and he sounds like a proverbial dying cat. - Those are not proper high notes. - check out this channel: RickiKeith - This guy, is a true singer. I discovered him 5 minutes ago. - His notes are superb.

  • @Arturostunes Thanks for your comments, I am really a bass at the moment. Of course in this 6 octave scale the high notes are just squeaks. But I can sing high with a good voice. Please see my channel - 'Gethsemane' 3:26 I hold strong top C for 20 seconds and in 'Moving too fast' 3:48 go for Soprano top Bb (rock scream-ish)... not too bad for a bass.

    Gethsemane - youtube.com/user/MrIanLB?featu­re=mhee#p/u/2/nX4IwzsYxts

    Moving too fast - youtube.com/user/MrIanLB?featu­re=mhee#p/u/2/nX4IwzsYxts

  • sorry man... because it seemed to me you were doing the reverse fonation...

    i can hit a C8 with a reverse whistle...thats why i thought this...

    have a nice day

  • @TheOnix123 As I say in the title... 'just a bit of fun'. Of course I'm pushng the limits here. But I can comfortably sing over 4 octaves Bb1-Bb5 and can happily sing every day without any vocal fatigue. I'm currently performing Caiaphas which goes down to C#2 and my previous role in Chess went down to Bb1 and had no vocal issues. In previous years I have performed 'Pity the Child' and 'Moving Too Fast' where I interpolate to a Bb5 and have won a number of eisteddfods singing these.

  • it seemed for me that he was making an reverse whistle, reverse fonation for reach that high notes, when you pull tha air to come in...

    and reverse fonation for making the low notes too..

    am i right?

  • @eieusoueu If you view some of my other posts I think you'll see I am vocalising correctly. Admittedly not all these note are pretty but I am vocalising them

  • squeeze your nuts and you might be able to get those higher notes more smoothely

  • How do you practice to sing that low?

  • @Prestvegur please view some of my other low posts and I give some tips. Basically keep relaxed and try to resonate. You should be starting to switch into your bass voice by the time you get to a bottom G. If not you will just run out of range just like trying to push your chest voice up... it doesn't work. You need to switch / blend into another range.

  • lmbo terrible hahahahahaah

  • :04 sec It sounds like somebody letting air out of a balloon.

  • Last ones sounded like farts.

  • not to be mean but when you got to your lowest (sorry not good in piano terms) like this bb1 I think it sounded pretty similar to b2 :/ but hey what do i know

  • Nice one! Can you do it with less fry (educational question not provocative :P ) ?

  • @Ypnovatis Yes, but need to add fry to get resonance. Without it the notes don't carry well. The use of fry is really what defines the bass register just like the use of mask defines the tenor register. Of course you spend you whole time trying to sound like you're not using it (in both cases) but it's what gets you there in the first place.

  • @MrIanLB Could you analyze that tenor part? I was under the impression that the use of the mask is significant in every case. Surely more "defining" for a tenor in terms of voice placement and timbre but still... Am I completely wrong ? :P

  • @Ypnovatis Singing in the mask is very important when singing classical repertoire but not all singing should be classical. It gives the voice a very nice 'bright' feeling at the top. Too much mask and too forward a style leaves a lot of nasal tones in the vioce though. For bass and lower pressure styles (eg. using close microphones) there is less need for mask and it may be undesirable as you sometimes want the drama of a bass reaching for high notes (C-F) not hitting with ease like a tenor.

  • To nfshaw1 : You can not win a debate against me, and therefore you have to comment just one typo? haha I pitty you. And if you dont want to say anything to me , why do you answer me?

  • That's all wrong. Doesn't matter how many octaves you can reach by torturing your vocal chords, what matter is your true vocal range... And I'd say that's probably 2 octaves.

  • @TheOnix123 please view my other posts... 'Moving too fast' and 'O Isis and Osiris' I certainly demonstrate well over 3 octaves in these real songs. Awarding me just 2 is a little mean.

  • @TheOnix123 A typical answer from anyone who doesn't know the full capabilities of human voice. Your comment gave me a good laugh, I mean "true" vocal range? Seriously....Lol, as commoners I believe its's the chest voice you're terming as 'true' voice.

  • Truly a very impressive range. Unique.

  • Its not bout how large your range is but how well you can sing in your range. So frankly this is very unimpressive cause I do not think anything above B4 and lower then B2 sounds good. So I would only say you have a 2 octave singing range.

  • Is there anything lower than Bb0

  • @MultiGarythesnail yes theres something lower than anything

  • @MultiGarythesnail technically there is no limit to how low a pitch can be made. When you drop an octive the hertz are cut in half, so you can infinitely devide a number in half. There is also no limit to how high of a sound that can be produced.

  • @StopThatTricycle ur right, there's no limit of sound, the limit's in human hearing

  • @fabiohpupo @StopThatTricycle I think all musician should have Note Worthy Composer software to understand that...

  • @StopThatTricycle You're right but in physics terms it's not exactly half. It's more complex than that. ;)

  • @Ypnovatis haha agreed

  • IMPRESSIVE

  • Hitler did the same things. What's your point?

  • frickin impressive dude

  • lol you should start a death metal band

    (jokes)

  • aff que baixo horrível!!!

  • And if I can hit a G0 and a Bb6 or a G#6?

  • Ia am saying that because if this is an Bb0,then I can hit it.I also think I can hit a G0

  • @MJFAN684 That's great.... you should record a video then its easy to measure range for you. IanLB

  • @MrIanLB Yes,because I don't know th whistle notes that I can hit!!!

  • @MrIanLB I have uploaded videos now check out

  • sounds like a closing door

  • @torstenwestphal1 sounds like a mouse trapped in the mouse trap...

  • If somoene hits Bb0 and G6,how many octves is that?

  • @MJFAN684 By my calculation that would be 5 2/3 octaves (or 5 octaves + 8 semi-tomes) hope this helps IanLB

  • you have impressive extensions in your exterior registers (whistle/vocal fry), but you're naturally a bass/baritone with an approximate modal range of F2-F4. I don't know what your modal extensions are in head voice though as you don't demonstrate a technique for it? Do you have training on how to mitigate the passagio (primo and secundo)? if you do, I would love hear an upper modal extension! Cheers!

  • @AriaSinger1 Thank you very much for your comment. You are very knowledgable and correct that I only demostrate lower extension here. I use bel canto style technique to extend into head voice see my channel for 'bring him home' and 'moving too fast' video. I can sing good head voice up to E above tenor top C although I tend to mix into head/whistle from about D. I can use good full whistle up to Soprano top Bb. The whistle I use here is super whistle, octave higher but poor tone. So I don't use

  • @MrIanLB continued...

    I will try to record my upper extensions some time but currently performing Caiaphas in Jesus Christ Superstar so need to focus on lower voice, I think part goes down to bottom C or C#. When singing more tenor repetior I used to sing 'Pity the Child' from Chess and finish on interpolated Super Bb in strong whistle (suprano top Bb). I will also try to record some time. Many Thanks Ian LB

  • WOW O___O I can only go down to a B1 on a good day and up to a F#5 in mixed/head voice ¬__¬.

  • ohh its kermit the FROG!!! you can always join the frog quire. im not saying your all that bad but come on ? your base and your tenor just suck .. your tenor is just a peeping door and your base is just a frog that is sick :-D sorry but its true. but keep practicing and youl do ok ;-)

  • @samurairobin86 Wow, you're obviously extremely ignorant. There are probably a hundred people in the world with a range that large.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • @samurairobin86 Kermit the Frog? The bass range that he's using is the vocal fry register, very few people can sing that low, in all actuality he has a pretty deep range before entering vocal fry

  • @nfshaw1 i dont care he sucks

  • @samurairobin86 I'm just saying, his bass and tenor are fine, his basso profundo range and whistle register are what need work....know what you're talking about before you try to bash somebody ha

  • @nfshaw1 i dont care he sucks.. and if thats what he is trying to do it sucks even more...

  • @nfshaw1 no offence but it just sucks.. theres no more to it then that

  • @samurairobin86 okay well i'll take you more seriously when you learn how to spell. It's 'Offense" lol

  • Hahaha! Your bass range is magnificent!

  • R O F L that was ridiculous but anyway nice pig voices xD

  • Gay!

  • You're just like choking man. LOL! :)

    When u are trying to reace bb6

  • Can you share an exercise that you do to increase your bass range? I've worked for three years lowest I've ever hit was a D2 But I'd really like to hit it all the time so if you could put up a little lessonI'd really appreciate it. Congrats on that man. Are you a bass?

  • @cgtrademark Hi, if you check my channel there is a decending scale that I find a good practice. For very low range you really need to find your very low voice and mix into it. From about a bottom G I start to mix into Bass voice. If I dont mix I get lower than G but get stuck at about bottom E or F. To find Bass voice try first when you wake up and use decending scales to a short 'pom' sound. It may be croaky at first but just keep trying to find these notes and smooth them out. Hope this helps

  • @cgtrademark lol my limit also is a D2 if i want to go lower i have to use vocal fry but i dont understand how to hit a note with vocal fry

    what vocal range do you have? Bass/Bariton/Tenor? I am a Baritone, i know that because the lowest note i can hit without sounding unnatural or weird is a G2

  • lows are overfried, ups are shrieks

  • well..practice more sir..your whistle..well..still not controlled..but at least u try ur best..:D

  • @MrDjoleen Thanks, yes I dont really use whistle so I dont practice or develope it much.

  • omg

  • LOL more chest voice maybe?

  • Awesome! I can sing over a 4 octave range. I never knew because I never sing : P

  • Very nice. Jealous.

    

  • that is called falsetto! and is not a Bb0!! you are a litthe adove the real note!

  • @MrDarknesslover he dont uses falsetto anywhere. he uses (from top to bottom) whistle voice, head voice, mix voice, chest voice and finally some vocal fry

    anyway, thank you for remember to us the existence of the disconnected sound (falsetto)! you sound like.. very expert in vocal issues xD

  • @89gerardo pero eso suena horrible.. parece un raton esos sonidos np tienen bellezas y las notas altas en el estan desconetadas todos suregistros..

  • @MrDarknesslover esta conectado (es un sonido conectado xq lo hace ajustando el grado de "cord closure" y nunca, en ningun momento, desconecta las cuerdas vocales, como seria hacer un falsete). si suena bien o no, es cuestion d gustos, el tipo es claramente de registro bajo y esa es (junto a la mujer contralto) la voz mas rara q existe por lo q no tienes costumbre de oido escuchandola. ademas el video no es para mostrar colores y tonalidades de la voz, esto es el espectro de tonos q alcanza.

  • @MrDarknesslover y no digo q sea perfecto, pero dime, y ahora mismo te pago 1 millon d pesos, UN solo bajo DE VERDAD que haga esto.

    probablemente ni conoces uno aparte de este. y si lo haces, te apuesto a q en verdad, es baritono ;)

  • @89gerardo aja primero que el digamos que esas cosas que intenta hacer para que le sirve si no existe belleza en su canto! son cuando usa su voz real! o sea yo lo veo de otro punto de vista por que he sido entrenado.. y si es un bajo en la opera no va a usar esas notas tan falsas que carecen de timbre y resonancia!

  • @MrDarknesslover no pues los papeles de bajo en opera van comunmente desde C2 a F4 o a lo mas A4

    pero en canto popular, puedes cantar en el rango que quieras y nuevamente te digo q lo bello, el placer y el displacer son cosas subjetivas. puedes ver en canto popular tenores como el d green day cantando solo en lo q llamas "registro real", o puedes ver a james brown, steven tyler, freddie mercury, axl rose, michael jackson, etc jugando con notas que no son "reales" para ellos y son ovacionados ;)

  • @89gerardo Thanks for your support. Yes your are correct with the voice types. Falsetto is not really very useful and can get nowhere near as high as whistle. I know there is also a 'super whistle' or 'extended whistle' which I can sometimes stumble accross but can't sustain or pitch well.

  • that is called falsetto!

  • @MrDarknesslover WHAT?? AHAHAHAH sure

  • damn! thats awesome xD

    im a bass too and i go from D2 to C5, slowly step by step practicing : )

    there is so much programs, teachers and knowlegde about how you can reach high notes (whistle) but i am really interested in the bass notes!!

    could you give me an advice about how to reach lower notes but without the

    common vocal fry?? thanks :D!

  • @89gerardo Thanks for the comments. I can give you some advice. You need very thick, relaxed & slow vibrating cords to get low you then need the best configuration of throat, mouth and larinx position to get enough resonance. Practicing first thing in the morning when you should have thicker cords may help with pitching low notes & experiment with resonance. When you get the hang of it try feeling your voice slowing down rather than geting lower. Dont avoid fry just smooth it out & it'll go away

  • Intonation got bas on the last several "notes", but that was amazing.

  • Funny, considering the zero octave doesn't even exist. They aren't notes. Just a series of over-tones. Nice try.

  • @TheFinchanator Yes, there is indeed a 0 octave. The first three notes on a piano are in it. And, while he lost delineation towards the bottom, his last note was definitely in it.

  • you should found a death metal band!

    it´s amazing how low you can go

  • i didn't know there was a 0

  • the last four notes, weren't notes. otherwise nice job.

  • Great range, but let's hear you sing. Range is useless unless you can carry a pitch.

    But you're a bass-baritone nonetheless.

  • @PickleJarr Ever heard of checking the channel?

  • @trlkly talking in general on the 1st sentence, not directly at him?

  • @PickleJarr Yeah, sorry. I just meant that he's got recordings of himself actually singing, too. I do agree that he's a bass-baritone: but that doesn't mean he can't have some really low notes. My friend in high school who made first chair Bass 2 was a bass-baritone, but he had a Bb1 without frying (and could go off the bottom of the piano with fry.)

  • Range is great! Now try using it to sing?

  • At the end, was that singing or burping?

  • holy balls

  • Bwahahahahahahahaha!!

  • I can do G1-G6 hehehe You apunes Funny When You did that Bb6

  • hahahaha omg

  • I can do Bb4-Bb2

  • Did I just watch a man give labor ...?
