I wonder if Eve does it well (Japanese artist)
For me it’s Ariana, but same
So true, fellow viewer, so true
Bro ik u loves ado. Could u make contents about her rolemodel/idol/singer favorite?
It's Sheena Ringo. Perhaps some of us notice several cover Sheena's songs in Ado's RUclips channel. Both of them have beautiful voice and inspiring singer. Please if you have time make about her as well. And we can related it to Ado's deep dive!

Ado is my hyperfixation so hearing so many people acknowledge how amazing she is makes me feel overwhelmingly happy. I have spent many years studying Ado’s style so I can sing just like her.
I think the best thing about studying Ado's technique is that her style is so diverse, from rock to metal to pop, so by studying her singing and trying to sing "like her" you can actually find your own unique voice
same! I've not studied her style directly or good in vocal so far, but she's my main vocal ispiration
ack i really want to sing like herr
do you have any tips maybe?
Same (I feel bad for my neighbors)
@@poppy_cant_draw one thing that I know is to not be afraid to sound weird or in other people’s minds, “wrong”. It’s a style that’s mainly based off emotions, your voice can sound light airy and sad or disgusted and full of hate. And when you’re doing the screams she does the on thing I know is that “ee” sounds are really hard to scream/growl with, and you want to keep the sound kind of to the front if that makes sense. Idk how else to describe it I’ve never taken vocal lessens and I’m also in middle school so I don’t know all the terms and stuff for things like this.
(Edit) Also for her kind of operatic head voice kind of sounds, (I don’t know how tf to say it😭) you want to lower your larynx(I think that’s how it’s spelled) as if you’re trying to make your voice lower then hit the note.
I love when people mention the compression, usually people only mention how autotune hides imperfection of raw vocals and forget compression
I feel like everything is more and more mixed with the knowledge that most people will be listening on their phones and nuances, range, dynamics really just make things sound "bad" to a lot of people when its coming out of a phone. It's a shame how we have the most incredible technology to do such amazing things, but also the technology is making it so that we don't really seem to want to. Idk, just thinking in text lol🤷♂️
@@els1fGood points. And we get trained on the lower dynamic recordings and think that’s how real singing should sound.
Autotune don't work like that
I cant believe I never realized that compression and processed music had actually messed up my sense of singing so bad as a learner, I used to wonder why I always sounded so flat but this explains soooo much its bc I'm used to trying to imitate that 'compressed' sound on a processed song and therefore not express that diversity in breathing correctly ooomg.... It all makes so much more sense now.
@@LunarBlossomYueHua lol I went through this too!
Love this comparison, and that you actually highlight it’s not that Ado is doing something better than Ariana, but that the production/mix is distorting our perception of it. It’s so easy to fall into the trap of trying to mimic something you hear in an album or live performance but if you can’t hear what is being done in terms of effects/compression/tuning etc then it can be so discouraging. That Ado performance though 🔥
This performance by Ado is an example of the use of compression
@@user-ii1ke9ex4uVocal compression, not audio compression.
And while most lives have some studio magic to them, it's not skewing our perception of what techniques are being used behind it.
i had a horrible vocal teacher who told me i need a stiffer mouth and not moving so much and i ended up hurting everytime i practiced. i endedup having a break down one day . cried and gave up. then a wonderful old man about 70 taught me instead (same school) and he taught me piano and vocal by ear!!!!!!!!!
My vocal teacher insulted me everytime I got expresssive IDK why 😂 he said the same thing about a stiffer mouth??? Weird
Some of the most impressive singers audibly have a very fluid and wide range of mouth movements. You don't even need to see them to know that their mouth shape is changing a lot. Don't know why those vocal teachers said that.
That's the whole different thing someone taught me.
He told me that I should raise my eyebrows and open mouth as wide as possible to hit the high notes
@@KeisiLaKreisi I have heard the mouth thing but first time I heard about the eyebrow. Truth be told if you really want to sing, you need to do the people's eyebrow.
Ado is a prodigy the world canot ignore her power.
love your pfp
glazing a lil but pop off
The glaze is crazy
@@Xani.0no glaze bro her vocal range is absolutely nuts
@@Theyluvmimi you talking only on Japan right?
The fact Ado voice and singing tecnique is now a high standard makes me so damn happy
Same here
understatement. she is perfection, not just high standard.
@@ilovechuuyaa my apologies, I have to agree with you🤝
STOP BREATHING!! it makes you sound flat
helpful video btw
NOOOOOO!!!! ILL NEVER BE PLUMP ANYMORE 😭😭😭
(male btw)
he knew ado would bring us here
Yup
as a vocaloid producer-to-be, this is so useful for making realistic tuning with dynamics and breathiness!!!
Make your products with the thought that an actual person might sing it one day.
Godspeed. I get that the artificiality and synthesis is a charm point for some, but the more "humanoid" tuning is what really hooks me on vocaloid.
OMG I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT NOW I WANT TO USE IT WITH MY TUNING..
ohmygoshhhh, will you be posting them? if you have an voca insta can i follow it :3
@@Yenreifor me it depends. Some songs are meant to reference that artificiality and are good that way, some sure can be better with human vocals
Deciphering music production on studio vocals and the way it greatly affects the tone you hear is a really, REALLY good point that not enough people talk about. Maybe obvious to some.. but it took me years to realise that you often shouldn’t mirror what you hear from recorded tracks because what it sounds like isn’t what the singer is actually doing mechanically to produce the sound.
Exactly!
Excellent summary.
Yes! Also, there is a big difference between listening to a newer recording made from 70+ comps, a slightly older recording made from 5-10 comps, and a good old fashioned full take with a punch-in or two at most.
@@flatrounds The listening audience is unfortunately going to judge live singing by the enhanced studio recordings.
@@TheSeeking2know not even that, the stage show! lol
1:57 Chris here is having an eargasm moment
Me the first time I listened to that song, it's so good
For me.. No singer is in the same level with ado yet.. Ado is another level that many singers abilities combined into one person.. Huhuhu
Edit : i read the replies of this comment, and so many people missunderstood about what i have said earlier.. People would compare ado with many of the great singer like DIMASH, Whitney Houston, Fredy Mercury, etc. Dont get me wronged, i respect them, But this is exactly the reason why they missunderstand.
What i meant with the phrase "ado is on another level" Is not how nice the sound ado makes, or how high the note she reaches, or how strong the power she has. "But.." What i meant is in terms of The way she use her so many vocal techniques in just one song. The versatility, the contrast, the transition between soft and compression. The way she interprets the lyrics into the emotion she had shown, the expresive ways of showing the emotions like becoming 3-4 different singers only with her voices in one song.
Thats why i said it was like many singer abilities combined into one person. Not like how individual singer abilities being compared to each other. ado sing As if the song was sang by a group of singers, or many singers sing the song together, with so many techniques used in just one song and express it so clearly that whoever heard her will immediately knows what emotion of the Song is all about. That was my point when i said ado is on another level.
I am sorry about my bad english, not my first language, i just hope you understand what i am saying.
And lastly, its all my personal opinion, its okay if you not agree. No right or wrong here, its just a matter of taste.
nah she's still rough around the edges
@@1_exmachine137 Compared to whom?
@@1_exmachine137 That doesn't even counter what op said...
@@1_exmachine137 well, duh, she's 21 and started singing when she was 15 if I remember correctly, also she hadn't a coach. To get in 6-7 years from someone who never held a mic to where she's now is something incredible. And she's constantly improving, for example if you look at her older songs she was quite struggling with softer vocals, but if you look at her more recent stuff like Dried Flowers cover, or for example Himawari she sounds great. The same goes for the things you could say she perfected, like for example her screaming thingy, in older concerts you could hear how much energy she was putting into them, but in her more recent concerts you can notice how easy she's able to access them without being so tense and still keep the same quality of them. If she won't stop growing she could easily became one of the best female singers of all time, but even now I'd say she's one of the best of today.
Michael Jackson for me Because of his staccato singing.
I see Ado I click
🔥🔥🔥
@@-pxlar 🔥
I know this isn't about which singer is better but I love Ado lot more than Ariana Grande
i love Ado's rough voice
BASED. WE LOVE ADO IN THIS HOUSEHOLD
ADO 🔛🔝
@@Moxziiiyes
YYREAH REAL
I like how this guy is so passionate about music that he sees the ability of other artists and not just for fame being a fan of the three
What you are talking about applies to musicians playing instruments too that often gets lost even though it should easily be a part of everyone’s practice and approach to their instruments, voice included. “Phrasing” as it were is soo important and that includes dynamics in that too. It’s how a performance can sound robotic and monotonous rather than human and with emotional depth.
What would you say are the events of phrasing, if dynamics is just a part of it?
Ado released a new song called 0. It was a different atmosphere than before. I feel like there's a lot of rap. Yxelixi's Ado's zero has English subtitles, so it's also recommended to watch it from there. Please take a look someday😆
I love that song
1:58 "Aishite Aishite Aishite" was composed by Kikuo back in 2015, it is one of his darker period songs that went quite viral due to the creepy aesthetics and visceral lyrics.
Please check out the current work of this amazing composer, who has a very remarkable experimental style..! 🌟
*2013
2:18 something about "they're both FANTASTIC breathers" cracked me up lmao
I don't speak English, but thanks to my knowledge of the language, I can understand a lot of what you are saying in your videos. I love music, and also very much Japanese because of their melodious vowels. I'm fear to sing and try because of my voice.Therefore, to hear Ado's live voice is very shocking to me. I listen to you analyze techniques and methods, repeat, show (and Ado) how to use a "broken" voice and how to breathe when singing gave me great confidence that I could sing. I CAN SING. I just need to stop being afraid of doing something wrong and start working on myself. Thank you so much Chris. Thanks a lot to Ado.
her live performance is so much better IMHO! it's so hard to listen to overly produced music and really undertsand what the singer is doing 100% your words are gold :)
あなたの音楽に対する真面目さ、真摯さ、情熱が大好きです。

Bro 😂
I was looking for this comment
LOL
I saw ado and I clicked. Was not disappointed.
いつも的確でわかりやすいんだよな。しかもユーモアがあって楽しい。私は日本人なので、特にAdoの曲が紹介される時はめっちゃテンション上がります。これからも応援してます！！
ちなみに、Adoの「ボッカデラベリタ」を解説して頂きたいです。私はあの曲をどうやっても上手く歌えません😅
I think unprocessed live performances generally highlight the most useful techniques. I found watching Cornell live recordings to do wonders for my mix :D
Yes, this!! Unprocessed lives all the way!!
I always underestimated how active of a task singing is until I started watching your channel and singing, and screaming, much more, myself.
Me simple.
Me see ado.
Me click.
Me.
You.
Me too. (:
Me agree
KIKUO MENTIONED WTF IS A HAPPY SONG 🔥🔥🔥🔥
This was life changing, the difference I noticed after just 10 minutes of practicing was phenomenal, thank you so much for the free wisdom you give us 🙏🏽
so the lesson here is: overproduction hides certain little things
I noticed that a lot of times btw. the other day I saw spiritbox live for the first time and courtney's screams were raw and felt very real. but whenever she sang clean, there was a filter there that made her sounds too smooth. you could clearly notice it when the bassist was doing backing vocals and his voice was much clearer. it was weird because her screams sounded great. weird artistic choice but that's just me
9:44 when you get too close to a creeper in minecraft
"im' a snakee" 😂😂
I love how the most viewed parts are those two segments where Ado appears jksaghfhjkgaskflafu
I never thought I would see Ariana and Ado in the same video
Clicked for Ado, stayed for the information
Same here
Was not that interested in the video but this appeared on my feed 5 times so here I am
Ha.. the mystery of the RUclips algorithm
I"m glad you're not just a critic and you actually show example yourself.
That - is what I want to subscribe to.
Been following you for years, it's so surreal seeing Ado becoming a mainstay haha! Idk if anyone's told you or not, but her name is pronounced as "Ah-dough" 🙇🏼♂️
Thank you so much for the wonderful video!! So informative and insightful, especially as I prepare for my first live show!
Aw heck yeah Trickle :D 🔥💞
Wow!!!
Ado is just the goddess of that thecnique 🗣🗿
Ok this is the first time I've been explained the whole concept of breath support for volume control in a way that I understood! Thanks so much
I’m not even any form of musical professional I just randomly found this. But I think I learned something today! Thanks guy!
I hadn't realized people use their core muscles when singing. Now I can put way more power into my singing for those moments where I wanna go crazy with it!
10:43 the mosquito in my room when I'm trying to sleep
this is crazy your ways of analyzing singing techniques are so accurate especially after you memeik it every time after explanation!!! gg
I usually sing as a hobby, but this is very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Ado is simply next level Vocally, Another amazing Vocalist you should check out especially in the area of breathing and breath control is the best of the Philippines, Morissette Amon.
Your channel is one of the best when it comes to teaching singing. Thank you ❤
i love ado's singing style and expansive catalog of music types.. there are alot of japanese singers that have really good voices when live.
Chris talking about Ariana is a dream come true. Would love to see more stuff about her, even if it is different from your usual content ☺️
Ado being in the thumbnail carried the views
ADOのブレスは表現の一部なんだよな。彼女は上手く歌うことよりも、 観客に伝えることを最優先させるから。曲の主人公の感情であるとか、曲の世界観とかであるとか。だから、唯一無二なのだと思う。
Quite the amazing lesson, I followed and felt everything you talked about. The engagement from your support alongside emphasized words was exactly what I was looking for today
As always, thanks Chris 🤘🏻
any singer who wants to learn how to use their breath to control dynamics needs to listen to mariah carey. mariah has medical issues that has damaged her voice that she’s been dealing with since the start of her career but her music is some of the most vocally intricate pieces of art any singer could listen to. and i’m not even talking about whistles! she’s the songbird supreme for a reason
I'm usually not into English songs (prefer Japanese, something about the language and vocalizations ig) but I'll check her out, I'm always up for stuff like this!
That’s true
Is it just me or i clicked the video immediately right after i saw the ado thumbnail😂
Ado on the thumbnail?? YES PLEASE
I saw Ado on the thumbnail and was immediately drawn to the video. Ado is such an amazing singer and I’m so happy to see her incredible talent being recognized! I’m not at all upset that I clicked on this video, it was likely the best choice I made today, as you have explained this concept in a way I understand!
Short version, Avoid sounding flat by imitating a flat tire sound, got it 👍
Ado is insane, It felt like I can feel the sound vibrating in my body.
THIS ACTUALLY HELPED ME FIND MY SINGING VOICE WTH THANKS
It helped me too
Came for Ado stayed because video was interesting and very informative
Me too
popped up on my recc; love to see our queen and idol ado :D
Love ur pfp fellow aventurine lover
Same here. Know ado from Hololive members covering her songs many times over.
Hey, it would be so cool to hear your voice do a cover of "Ben"! I LOVE your aggressive singing style, but it would be really interesting to hear you sing an entire song WITHOUT going into crazy grit, screams or distortion, but still dynamic & emotional! What dose the innocent Chris sound like???
I agree! ❤ A classic non-rock/metal love ballad.
I've been classically trained for 13 years. You've taught me somethings and I'm thankful ❤
Bro knew what we liked
I adore singing but I'm not allowed to do it anywhere but the car. These videos are all I have to learn from so thank you for all of these ❤
Thank you for tackling this topic about dynamics and strength because this is usually disregarded.
I had to share this video to a lot of friends and singers I work with since this is honestly the most common thing I hear lacking on most performances. I love this video. Thank you
Thank you for the exercise.
It is amazing.
I'm watching this video not because I want to become a better singer, but I found that extremely useful when communicating with others. Speaking fuller definitely sounds like you have more authority in a situation, while speaking flatly doesn't. Anyways, interesting video, keep it up bro!
It absolutely does. Not only does it improve your voice (I've noticed, singing makes you sound cleaner even when speaking), but quite a bit of singing skills transfer to speaking like voice modulation, etc.
I remember back when I was socially awkward and anxious (still am, but now to a lesser degree), I would think several times on what I'm gonna say to a person, like say I wanna purchase rice, and while planning that I would pay special attention to which words I'd emphasize and which words I'd speak at higher pitch, which ones lower, etc. That made me realise how much singing translates to speaking haha
Hey Chris, great video. Speaking of dynamic singing, one of the most dynamic singers I’ve ever heard was in a band called Fair To Midland.
Darroth Sudderth is a fantastic singer and can do it all: clean highs, distorted growls, throat singing, ecc.
I think that led to my question of how loud you’re “supposed” to sing. It doesn’t get discussed and can’t easily be expressed through a proxy like a video and is equally not easily distinguishable in sample songs (which are bad examples in a lot of cases anyway) because of the skew from the “beautification” through artistic mixing.
i see ado, i subscribe and click. ado's voice is soooooo good man, such a powerful voice! gives me goosebumps
i remember listening to ado when she had few hundred subs now she is almost at 7 mil like damn shes popular
Incredible algorithm pull my dude. Content is also right up my alley. Subbed.
I once came across Ado recently for the first time because I was looking for ADO, Cui Jian's awesome band from China. Their album from 1996 is such a gem!
Chriss.. Talking about vocal dynamics, you might wanted to check
Mika nakashima, she is one of a senior singer in japan. And she did the first take version on one of her song.
Please make a review for
Mika nakashima - yuki no hana ( the first take version) and you will see a clear example of simple vocal dynamics, yet so beautiful, because she put not only a breath technique, but also her emotion when singing.
I randomly found Ado's songs in spotify once and i am still listening to her same songs to date! I thought i found gold looking for copper!i looked her up on youtube today and realised she is most certainly getting the praise and listeners she deserves.
Me singing:"Aishite Aishite Aishite Motto motto" with that part
this helped me not strain my neck when I sing louder higher notes THANK YOU SOO SO so much!!!
This is fantastic ✨💡✨ Even though I’ve been learning to sing with dynamic placement and resonance from your courses and videos, this video further illuminated the role of dynamic breathing in the whole process. The way you explain things and support them with examples is like placing signposts on our learning path directing us other step forward. Thanks Chris 🙏🥰
Every time I hear Ado I get chills✊️
Adoさんとアリアナさんの歌唱の息の使い方にフォーカスしていますが、これは日本語と英語の発声の際の違いによるものが大きいと思われます。
英語はブレスを子音がとても強い言語で聞き取りやすく、日本語は母音の雰囲気で比較的伝わる言語だと感じます。
Adoさんの歌い方へアプローチとして、あくまで個人的な意見としては、（日本人なので日本語的なアプローチになりますが）
まずは自分の声の音程感やリズムが合っているかが最重要に思います。
これはシンプルに、自由に歌える音域を広げられることが、”音を声で表現する”音楽的なスキルとして重要だからです。
逆に息を使うことを意識しすぎると倍音が増え、自分で歌っている分には気持ちよく、ピッチ感がそこまで安定していなくてもそれなりによく聞こえてしまうという弊害があると思われます。もちろん、それはそれで良いことなのですが。
次のアクションとして重要かつ難しいのが、「歌った時の素の声が魅力的であるか」をジャッジすることです。
これは録音をして試行錯誤するしかないし、Adoさんのように多様な声を出すには、歌でなくてもいろんな人の喋り肩や、感情表現のあり方を研究する必要があるように思えます。ある意味「声真似」に近いです。
上記アクションの感情表現の延長線上に呼気のレベルをどう使うかがあるのであり、呼吸”のみ”を意識しすぎてしまうのはちょっと危険かなと思いました。
Adoさんの歌唱が好きで研究しているので長文になってしまいましたが、考えさせてくれる良いきっかけになりました！良い動画をありがとうございます！
I catch myself doing this, all the time, when I'm singing in the car. I knew something was off, but I couldn't figure out what.
No context, just 3:23
Just came here on a recc super interesting!
I think with the explanation and demonstration it makes sense why the japanese produce/have so many great singers and voice actors, both even now a days.
Looking into it a bit more about speech breathing pattern it takes more breath to read a passage in japanese and then with english taking the least amount of breath to read a passage.
Came for the Ado thumbnail, stayed for the tips
Me too
I like how You explain!
Thank You for Your speaking skills. I am not native in english, but You was building every sentence in a way I was easely undestanding You!
Also, it is awesome how You teach us on others' mistakes. Seeing how i sould not do reveals the topic easely(at least for me).
And Your video is interesting! I watched untill the end!
(I don't have much time to write a complete comment of Thanks, but I want at least write something to help You get more views on the video... )
Ok, fine, I’ll listen to Ado now…
Also check out Official Hige Dandism for some some great vocals
The first points you made just blew my mind ❤
If you wanna hear to 0% of dynamic just try to listen to "DEVIN TOWNSEND PROJECT - Deadhead (Live at Royal Albert Hall)" that's all about The Compression. The modern sound has almost always a lot of hardware compession on it.
And yes, Chris Liepe here. Love this channel
I feel Chris would have a lot of fun delving into Devin Townsend ☺️🤘 their scream dynamic style is so similar!
I love how the Ado bits are the most replayed part of the video
Came for Ado but stay for the information
you tricked me with my hyperfocus and trapped me with good tips, damnit
I see ADO and I click😂
I saw Ado. I clicked. I plan to show this to my friend who is an ado fan. live laugh love ado
I'm not the biggest fan of Ariana's style of music but I've always had tremendous respect for her singing ever since I saw her live recordings of her live performances and her covers of other songs that highlight her abilities more. Still Ado is my favorite artist tho 🔥
