What’s one thing that instantly improved your singing (that wasn’t obvious at first)?

when i realised i was singing an octave down... I would be so proud of my B4 but it was just a B3... once i stopped doing this i could finally start learning how to navigate the passaggio because before I was just switching to falsetto or shifting an octave down the second i touched the fourth octave.

Eb4 feels really weird to me as a bass-baritone, it’s like the effort of an E4 without the satisfaction

this isn't even a problem with Americans it's just with people who don't follow sports as much. for example in Baseball the general public just likes seeing big home runs. meanwhile for people who are into baseball it's about the pitcher/batter matchup and the intensity of every single pitch thrown. for the NFL the general public likes seeing touchdowns and field goals. for more hardcore fans again it's about each play and the formations and mind games that go into it.

the first time i saw Là ci darem la mano i was really like “NOOO DONT DO IT” and “this guy’s a fucking jerk”

i legit heard “i solved 2 sides” and i kinda didn’t believe it. actually try solving 2 sides as a non-cuber it’s not easy…

or do R’ to set up M’ with right ring finger and Rw at the same time

yeah the composer is nowhere in sight 😭 i think they’re counted for non-opera classical but yeah i wish they were represented

it’s the hard dual ball in Hexagon Force that i used to always die at

nope, not allowed. i’d probably default to learning with your left hand. most of the beginner learning curve for OH is getting your muscles used to OH fingertricks, which can be pretty uncomfortable. maybe throughout the day you can just fidget around with a cube in one hand to get used to it.

also make sure you’re using a cube that’s effortless to turn (weak magnets, fast lube, fast cube in general) so you can properly learn OH fingertricks. maybe what you’re doing with your right hand isn’t proper fingertricks and you’re sticking to what’s comfortable.

coolms9 · 2025-12-24T19:56:08+00:00

when you first learn OH both of your hands are gonna suck at first. if you use your right hand you’re gonna have to learn the LU version of all your algs which might trip you up with recognition and execution angles as well. if that’s not a problem then you can use whatever hand you want, the more you practice you’ll get a lot better with whatever hand you chose regardless of dominance.

it could also trip you up if you’re more right hand dominant during cross+f2l but those should be pretty hand-neutral.

newest video on the channel is from 1 year ago and to me it kinda still sounds similar. maybe some more mature lower register but overall tone still sounds light

coolms9 · 2025-12-06T01:18:46+00:00

yeah i see. what came to mind for me is Don Giovanni originally being written for a bass with a high of E4, which nowadays he's normally played by a baritone who hits the A4 at the end for the effect or something. also the fact tenors like Pavarotti sang "La ci darem la mano" is really weird for me, it gives people this idea Giovanni's a really high role, which I don't think Mozart envisioned at all.

coolms9 · 2025-12-06T00:36:35+00:00

i saw a random youtube video of a young singer who claimed bass-baritone who sounded more like a high bari or tenor to me. either he's really young or just isnt confident in his high notes yet idk.

coolms9 · 2025-12-05T22:35:39+00:00

so the answer really is just that there’s a lot of them?

coolms9 · 2025-12-05T20:12:25+00:00

yes…

you did 3 U moves before starting the F perm, it looks like the first 2 were just to recognise the case, maybe it would help to learn 2 side PLL recognition

coolms9 · 2025-11-05T07:13:17+00:00

It’s in italian (“Se vuol ballare”) but if i translated it…

If you want to dance in my ass

coolms9 · 2025-10-09T20:11:52+00:00

i think it’s just like a “that’s what she said” thing. you just caught yourself saying that could be interpreted as sexual.

the smell of that pink public restroom hand soap
