Like I get that he's not just going for generic indie singing but he doesn't sound substantially different from generic indie singing and he's not even doing a good job at that so the singing just isn't working and unless he tries something drastically different either in singing or in production (the least of the problem) then it's just gonna suck.

Cool comparison nice

There's definitely vocal takes I want to redo but I like the general vibe I'm getting on the tracks, thanks for listening I really do appreciate it. The Soundcloud is kind of the dumping ground for my ~90% finished tracks, I do want it to be a bit cleaner by the "final product" or whatever

YD is Murica after 9/11. I hate your freedom apparently.

For whatever reason I do struggle to hear my off key singing while I’m in recording mode but I start to hear the off key parts more clearly once I’ve taken a step back and listened to the song in different contexts. Maybe I’m lacking in some innate ability to hear exact pitches I dunno

Also I think there’s a charm to knowing just one person made everything in a song (except the drums they’re just midi loops that I Tetris in there in various orders)

Last attempt: your key and pitch aren't why your singing sucks.

You can still make a good album with an untalented singer. My voice is like a 4/10 but I think the music I’m making kicks ass all the same

It would be even better if you deleted that lame singer. Or get your wife to sing about how terrible she is at blowjobs.

Gonna have to go with Charles on this one, it's just not coming out right. Not sure if you're out of tune or pitch or whatever technical reason. Singing is not for you. :/
