It's called Autotune, doofus. And it's skank.

 

 

??? :huh2:

 

Actually, thank you for that. Listening to "Major Minus" whilst watching that video proved to be extremely enjoyable.

One of my absolute favourite things about the song is the vocal effect. Really love it.

Same here! ;)

Agree

HEY GUYS I DON'T KNOW WHAT AUTOTUNE IS I JUST HEARD ABOUT IT FROM SOME OTHER GUY WHO SAID THAT BAD MUSIC USES AUTOTUNE SO IM JUST GOING TO ASSOCIATE EVERYTHING I DON'T LIKE WITH AUTOTUNE

 

:lol:

 

I like the vocal effect o.o Sounds awesome

I like this idea a lot!

It's called Autotune, doofus.

 

It's not autotune.

At first i didn't like the vocal effects and preferred the live version. But now i love both versions..and i like the fact that I can here Will's voice.:)

^ Agreed. I think all of the guys have great voices on their own (even Guy, which I didn't expect since he's never sung backup :stunned:) and if you combine any of them together they sound even better!

 

(My personal favorite is Jonny + Chris on Politik Live 2003 :wacky: )

skank.

OKAY

 

I like the effect, makes the song more into that UFO - space - mars era, like the alien effects at the end, THEY ARE BRILLIANT, oh and moving to mars gots more effects, specialy at the end of the song!!!! loving these effects in all the songs, NEW ERA = EPIC SPACE JURNEY

 

the Saturn 5 Trilogy > whatever Coldplay comes up with :nod:

This is the first thing that I thought of when I read it haha. Well not the video, but yeah. :|

 

I'm so bad at skanking lol, I can't even do better than those people and that's saying a lot :awesome:

Every time I post in a thread in one of the LP5 subforums it dies, WHY IS THIS :|

^ :hug:

 

 

So yeah, vocal effects = good when used sparingly

I used to dislike these effects but now I became used to them. Major Minus is my new drug :drunk:

^ I know what you mean :wacky: I thought that Major Minus might be one of the handful of Coldplay songs that wouldn't grow on me . . . how wrong I was.

 

Now I think the vocal effects are freakin' cool! :cool:

On the CD you can hardly notice it.

I think the live version is way better but the studio version is still awesome!! I prefer no vocal effects, but I still love MM!!!!!! :D

i have gotten so used to the studio version... i sing so loud to the "ooo ooo oohhh" part, i love it now. great coldplay <3

It's called Autotune, doofus. And it's skank. I'm sure they didn't have any depth reason to use it apart from they though lt it sounded good, when it ruins his voice. They need to fire their producer, he's totally fucked these songs

 

As an amateur producer I can assure you that it is not autotune.

 

It's more likely to be an overdrive stompbox. I've previously used guitar effects on vocals to achieve the same feeling.

 

Oddly enough, the song I used it on was quite thematically similar to Major Minus, so I guess authority fear and crushed vocals go well together.
