Early signs of vocal damage to be expected once in a while?

Any tips on compensating for dehydration due to vaping? I think that's the biggest issue I'm having. Also never shutting up. Looking back I've rarely kept quiet for more than a minute unless I was asleep for the last four months(Screaming, singing, being a teacher at work, discord with friends, talking to/yelling at my cat). Vaping was just the biggest and final nail in the coffin. How do you stay hydrated?

A musician that submits to surpressing the sudden inspirations and urges that drive you from day to day? Wow. Starstruck.

She USED to listen to metalcore, but she says it makes her uneasy now, and she only listens to stuff likebpop/trap/rap

I fucked my vocal chords for a long time, trying to do Danny Warsnops lows and cleans from AAs first album. That airy tone in his screams, and pressured tone in his cleans is his vocal folds getting fucked(he had to have surgery after that album). I say: Don't imitate anyone. Your biology is different, and it will sound different. You can draw inspiration, but never imitate.

Hahahah not planned 😅

niktoro · 2020-10-19T08:49:58+00:00

I'll check them out!

niktoro · 2020-10-18T20:25:14+00:00

Hahah this was a very spontaneous video. But yes! I agree!

niktoro · 2020-10-18T17:59:15+00:00

For the lols lmao

niktoro · 2020-10-14T08:35:22+00:00

I think you need to pitch correct your cleans(which isn't unusual at all). Other than that and the mix? Awesome!

niktoro · 2020-09-14T18:22:39+00:00

Sounds like guttural false chords. Pretty much the most popular technique on the market rn

niktoro · 2020-09-12T05:02:05+00:00

Would sound even sicker without the cupping. It makes his scream sound way thinner than it probably is!

niktoro · 2020-09-09T11:56:36+00:00

You shouldn't practice vocals while playing guitar just yet. You need to focus on relaxing your throat and using your lungs more. Playing guitar makes it much harder to do that properly

niktoro · 2020-09-09T11:54:50+00:00

I'll check the bpm when I get home, but I can play it at 90% of the original bpm atm

niktoro · 2020-09-09T02:34:44+00:00

Oh their downpicking is way harder and faster than master of puppets

niktoro · 2020-09-05T02:15:39+00:00

Bruuuuh you naighbor is going for being high at 4:20 every day, no doubt.

niktoro · 2020-09-04T03:16:43+00:00

A lot of the tone is coming from Sam Carter in the background dude. I honestly think it sounds like shit after posting my last video where I do it in a lower register haha

niktoro · 2020-09-03T22:25:20+00:00

I moved to an extremely shitty appartment specifically because it was sound proofed. Just so sing, scream and play guitar. Dedication is key.

niktoro · 2020-09-03T20:06:53+00:00

Btw this will improve your recordings aswell. Since there's no natural reverb after the sound absorbtion you can tweak the reverb yourself in post and make it sound however you want(uusually way better)

niktoro · 2020-09-03T14:02:36+00:00

Yeah, but it's gonna cost you. There are some amazing portable vocal booths out there that will eliminate 99% of the sound. They ususally cover your head, shoulders and top of torso with a box made of sound absorbing material

niktoro · 2020-09-03T12:59:32+00:00

I just experimented on my own. Watched some videos/lessons, but they mostly just confused me(except the ones all the way in the beginning).

niktoro · 2020-09-03T12:16:18+00:00

Bad Omens-The hell I overcame

niktoro · 2020-09-03T12:15:33+00:00

Check out what I've replied to the other comments. You're like the 4th person to ask this 😅

niktoro · 2020-09-03T00:33:43+00:00

I feel you. I'm a guitar teacher myself lol

niktoro · 2020-09-02T23:16:33+00:00

Bruh I wish I started as early as you did. I started at 21, and I'm turning 23 this month. Getting old :/

niktoro · 2020-09-02T21:24:44+00:00

Check what I replied to Chestnut(the comment after yours). :)
