Hi everyone. In some songs, people use this effect that sometimes sounds almost like a bunch of people singing together in the background, and sometimes a keyboard holding a single note for a period of time, to give songs a "mystical" effect.
The only song/video I could find right off the bat is like this one: (Sorry I have to post the link in bits, it says because I am a newbie I have to have lots points to post real links.)
Go to youtube, and paste this: watch?v=pNglU9Ho-iY
In the background it is like a synthisizer, holding a single note and changing it every now and then
WHAT IS THIS CALLED? Does this kind of music have a specific name or something, or is the sound called something special?
(Do you know any good songs like this? PLEASE post!)
