So we just finished singing Pink Pony Club with the
@singsongsocialclub , which was awesome by the way!
During that session, I was talking to
@hello.marco and told him I do overtones and he was like, "why don't you try doing overtones" at the part where they were asking people to do ad libs. I was thinking "oh nah it wouldn't fit, you have to plan overtones out".
But as we were walking to the bathroom after the session was done, it dawned on me that I *already did Pink Pony Club with overtones before* 😱😱
So before leaving, I told my friends "I've got a crazy idea...
@itsfaifuu sing the melody,
@shuminandyuki and
@spicymasalah you sing the octave above, and
@jansen.nkm sing the octave below while I sing overtones.
@spicymasalah showed off some gorgeous harmonies and I was like ok no let's do that instead.
So we tried one take, and I could not hear myself or the overtones, so after some trial and error and suggestions from the rest, I ended up in the front, and we decided to take out the high octave part in favour of a doubled melody. The overtones were much clearer and I could hear myself much better. It was also
@itsfaifuu 's idea to have her and
@spicymasalah 's parts come after the first line, which helped establish the melody and overtone line first before making the big chorus sound.
After the take right before this, two guys popped out from behind the wall and were like "Very nice! Do it again!" And I was like yeah let's do it one more time for safety, and this was the take.
There was one part where I was like "Hmm I didn't move note fast enough here" but then I said, any time I accept a slightly imperfect take is character development (usually I'm a perfectionist) 😂
Thanks guys for helping me make this happen and thanks
@jansen.nkm for checking that we were all in frame too!
