THERE'S 'SOMETHING' ABOUT THE VOICE!

About over 6 months ago i came across this video of a live performance by the fusion band SNARKY PUPPY FT LALAH HATHAWAY. The song was called: 'Something'. After 6 mins into the song Lalah does something incredible with her vocals. She is able to sing a 2 part harmony by herself (No external Vocal or Harmony effects). I have never heard anything like this before. I was amazed.

How is Lalah able to sing these harmonies? According to an interview Lalah said that she has been able to do this since she was 12-13 and still does'nt know how she does it. However, there are other vocalists that claim that they too can do this.

One possible explaination could be Overtone singing. This is where the singer manipulates the resonances. There are different variants of this (Tuvan throat singing , Inuit throat singing etc).

Have you got any other explainations how this could be done?

Until next time.

THE SPHERE? MORE MERCHANDISE! BREAKING RECORDS?

 Hi! Everyone & welcome back to my blog. A new live entertainment venue opened last month called: THE SPHERE in Las Vegas. The first performer in residency is the band U2. THE SPHERE are planning between 4- 6 residencies a year. You may have seen the LED display around the outside (which looks very spectacular). Lets talk about the state-of-the -art sound-system known as 'Sphere Immersive Sound' (powered by 'Holoplot').  This is the worlds most advanced concert-grade audio system. The venue is 160,000 square foot with around 17,500 seats.  The sphere features: 167,000 amplified loudspeaker drivers 1600 Hotpot loudspeaker modules (around the sphere) 3D Beam Forming Sound etc ('Sphere Immersive Sound' I think was first used for the 'Beacon Theatre' on a smaller scale) This could be the future for live concert venues. That could be really good. MERCHANDISE- Ive added more 80s/ retro inspired  'Merchandise' to my store. Click here . I will be add...
