Cuz' I'm an alien
I'm gonna teach the bass
Yes guys, today, I'm going to be teaching you this technique, stay tuned!
FOH
Yo what's up guys, my name is Indicator
And today, I'm going to be teaching all of you how to do the Alien Bass
let's start this right now, let's not waste any time!
First off, alien bass and vibration bass are 2 different techniques.
Vibration bass is a technique that uses a vocal fry in combination with a throat bass to create *bass*
Whilst my bass uses 2 subharmonic sounds in order to create a 3rd, lower sounding subharmonic
*Examples*
Now, how do we start doing alien bass?
Well, there's 2 sounds you'll have to learn in order to get this technique
The first sound is going to be a subharmonic hum using just your nose
You've maybe seen this technique used somewhere before
but what you're basically going to do is:
you're going to take your normal voice, hum softly and go so low
that by the friction of the air and the inside of your nose, a subharmonic note emerges.
It's like an overtone at the low end/spectrum of your voice
 
so
start by humming
and what we do then is go lower
until you get that subharmonic note, which is not pressurized.
again
only going down with the voice, no pressurizing
don't choke yourself, you don't have to!
So, now we've got the first part
with the nose!
it's going to be really easy to get this second sound if you can do the first sound
we're going to do the same thing but by just using our throat this time
we're not gonna let any air through our nose
Even by grabbing the nose like this, we can still do *subharmonic throat hum*
which is the 2nd subharmonic note
again, not a vocal fry because you don't have to pressurize.
*pressurized pained noises*
no, all you have to do is:
Make a normal note with your voice
and then go down (without pressurizing)
the lower you can get, the easier it will be to control the sound.
now one question remains, we can sing really low, we can sing 2 subharmonic notes
can we do them at the same time?
because THAT's what Alien Bass is
we do these 2 subharmonic singing techniques (nasal and vocal)
we combine these at the same time
in order to get a 3rd vibration, which is way lower than normal vibration bass
so
we've got our first subharmonic
we've got our second subharmonic
and now we're going to create the third one
you do this by combining the 2 methods I just said earlier
If we start from the throat it sounds like this
these are the basics of alien bass
poly subbass is a great way to name the bass, because it tells you exactly how it's done
poly subbass, poly(phonic) subharmonic bass singing
it's about as easy as that
now a couple of you guys may run into some issues while doing the bass
first, it's REALLLLLYYY hard
it's really hard to do, I'll admit that right now
Even I, I've been doing this technique for about 2 years
and when I wake up in the morning, I'll have to practice for about 30 minutes before I can actually do it
it's really hard to get going and super difficult to get started doing.
the 2 subharmonic singing techniques by themselves are already difficult
so just imagine having to combine the 2 at the same time.
I wish you guys good luck with practicing this bass
if you do have any questions feel free to message me
the best place to message me will probably be on Instagram right now
either instagram or discord
those are the 2 platforms I'm active on the most and it's where you'd be most likely to reach me
now if you still don't quite get the concept of this bass
you maybe should search up a YouTuber who can explain to you really well how to sing subharmonics
because they really are the basics of this bass
the way I learned the bass was, I mistook it for throat bass at first
I thought you had to learn throat bass by just lowering your voice (DIDN'T WORK)
anyway, we've reached the end of the tutorial
I will be in the comment section down below answering any questions if you have any left
I'm very active on YouTube and will respond near immediately
If you like the video, make sure you (actually) like it
it really motivates me to keep working on YouTube and keep getting content out for you guys
I will be posting more content (livestreams, tutorials)
and of course new routines
*music starts playing*
make sure you're looking forward to that!
if you really want to see that, make sure you subscribe and turn on notifications for this channel!
Anyway guys, it's been fun
I really do hope I taught you something useful
and I hope you can get on your way to get one of the most badass basses in beatbox
Let's go boys, see you next time!
Indicator out *FOH*
I'll kill you like a...
