    • @ejanocrowsnatcher
      @ejanocrowsnatcher 7 лет назад +111

      THEY DID! Well actually.. i guess not. But at one point they thought PTX was cheating (ok well not seriously). When Avi did it the first time it looked like Kevin was making the noise and Shawn Stockman (judge) said "yo I swear yall are cheating or something" I feel like it must've been discussed some point backstage! How could they not right?

    • @lisaross2368
      @lisaross2368 6 лет назад +3

      Try folding your tongue back. That’s one way to make it louder.

    • @KaoXoni
      @KaoXoni 3 года назад

      How He gets this so loud:
      #1 focus. Once you have the overtone, hear it, keep that sweet spot, just hone in on the fine tuning. Keep the volume of your ostinato steady, but fixate on the overtone, sense the exact location in your mouth where the vibration ist tickling, zoom in there and you can exoect the overtone intensity to rise.
      #2 Feedback/practice.
      Play around frequently, just make it a habit to calibrate the overtone whenever you sing any vowel, which is all the time. Just a different sweet spot for each vowel on each note. Practice to hold it on sliding scales. Practice to catch it as you sneak up on a tone. Practice to hit it right from the beginning. Practice to keep an overtone in each note of a phrase. permutate overtones on a steady key. Do it just for fun, because you are in the bathroom or in the subway tube, because you can. Simply get used to it.

  • @SomeGuy-pc9fh
    @SomeGuy-pc9fh 4 года назад +12

    You know the overtone singing avi does is actually quite easy to learn. If u search up a tutorial, u can easily produce the overtone in 10mins. I say that but getting to a more advanced level where u can control the overtone like Avi takes much more practice

    @cthulhu2478 5 лет назад +8

    I think he has an extra organ hidden somewhere. The fact you can hear it over all other note even when 3 other people are singing loud is astonishing. I'm so happy for his solo carrere and wish him the best ❤️

  • @hopestallion6522

    • @americanwwhore
      @americanwwhore 7 лет назад +31

      Hope Stallion It’s not technically a whistle regisyer

    • @erinrobinson8199
      @erinrobinson8199 6 лет назад +20

      Hope Stallion I think it’s just the air really. Just the way it’s passing through his mouth cause you have to position your tongue in a certain way to do it. So it’s not really in your throat like a whistle.

    • @autumninterludemusic
      @autumninterludemusic 5 лет назад +13

      its cuz your tongue changes the shape of your mouth and throat and that changes the way the sounds resonate and how overtones blend

    • @jhustingreame8377

    @fatguy338 5 лет назад +2

    Fun fact, every time you sing you're singing a bunch of notes above the fundamental one you hear, they're just quieter. What avi's doing is changing the shape of his mouth to amplify certain pitches.

      Oriana Çizmeci Díaz they're produced by shaping your mouth and throat in a certain way while singing! producing them is actually not that hard, the difficult part is getting them loud and controlling the pitch.

      ​@@w0rmg0rlI'm here again and yes, finally I can produce overtones 🎉🎉🎉🎉 I just need to practice more so that my overtones can have more intensity... To amplify the sound...

    I want to hear him do it in Bb so he sounds like a set of bagpipes.

      He actually does it at 1:45, but I'd like to hear him do a celtic song. 😂

    Honestly overtone stuff is hard. But it takes practices.

    Like, how? Two sets of vocal chords, like how do you make your vocal chords move to produce two different sounds? And not just that, but very different in melody and pitch. I need the science behind that. For real.
