Ricardo -> Ricardo sings...rumba (Apr. 27 2019 16:51:02)

So since january I have had to work on singing seriously. I have always liked singing back up vocals in my rumba groups but I was suddenly hit with losing my main singers all at once (one guy is too busy with his brothers band, the other moved away, and final guy just dropped the ball on me for ego reasons). So I am like a one man show on gigs lately. Right now I can handle rumba stuff with the mechanical right hand, flamenco is too tough for me yet with what I want to do right hand wise. But I am working on it.

First comments were encouraging....”wow nice picados” [8|] [:D]

Sounds excellent! Working on the voice is paying off. You are owning it and could definitely bang bang Maria 🤘. You have much more dynamics, power and presence compared to your older voice. And it just sounds better overall. I saw the vid on YouTube before coming to the foro and noticed these improvements so I’m not just being nice 😆

That was great man!

Super job Ricardo and hopefully a few less people to share the proceeds [;)]

Wow Ricardo, fantastic! Muy Gitano Hombe!
When you do this a little longer, your voice gets a bit more solid than it is allready.
The voice is a muscle that can be trained.

Hat’s of man really difficult to sing and play at the same time. Your voice have a a nice tone. Very pleasant to listen to.

Do you take requests?😃

Nice Ricardo!




Goldwinghai -> RE: Ricardo sings...rumba (Apr. 28 2019 13:20:18)

I did not expect a good voice coming from a professional guitarist. Nice job Ricardo. This maybe a new career direction for you. How about some rumba in English?

cantame por bulerias tio




kitarist -> RE: Ricardo sings...rumba (Apr. 28 2019 20:54:04)

Wow, good voice for rumba! Very impressive!




rombsix -> RE: Ricardo sings...rumba (Apr. 29 2019 2:21:40)

If you need something done, you have to do it yourself. Great work, hombre!




Ricardo -> RE: Ricardo sings...rumba (Apr. 29 2019 10:54:46)

Thanks guys! Yes it takes lots of training, I feel small improvements each week. I’m most concerned w pitches and rhythm at this point, and air maintenance.... it’s easy to blow it all out at the wrong time, and some consonants really waste air. Like “por que” can sound bad as air hits the mic on “p” or “k”... so I do things like “boor gay” instead lol.

I’ve got La dona down pat, will work on the other. And yes I can do some covers in English so long as the rumba beat works tempo wise.

Why not get a pop filter? Or is that only for recording?




himanshu.g -> RE: Ricardo sings...rumba (Apr. 30 2019 3:25:53)

wow, great to see the "never give up" attitude :)

Signal processing does not manage air flow [;)]. And that wind screen thing? Boor gay? lol




chester -> RE: Ricardo sings...rumba (May 2 2019 3:54:49)

Wow dude it sounds great!

I'm not familiar with any rumbas but those vocal melodies are beautiful.

I keep meaning to buy your rumba instructional videos (not sure if they're still up). Anyway, real kick ass stuff!

Oh, I thought you were talking about plosives. Now I get that you're talking about preserving your breath. [:D][8D]

The technique of modifying certain consonants serves a duel function... I noticed the plosives got fixed live, after working on it for airflow acoustically.

The vowels are something I never had to think about before either. Your approach to vowels on higher pitches is very much like having to prepare or choreograph your right hand when switching techniques like pulgar>arpegios >picado. If you do it carelessly you can have a voice crack or weak sound or lose pitch etc.
