BF2S Forums Three 6 Mafia feat. Tiësto - Feel It (Official Music Video)

i like, but i like the stuff on tiesto's new album more

Not bad. The 16 year old in the blue coat needs to stop abusing AutoTune (like the entire music industry), though. Not a hip hop fan, but Tiesto did a good job making it good.

seeing tiesto next week

The song - nice club banger, quite catchy indeed. Didn't think I'd see Three 6 with tiesto making a club banger, but everyone likes money I suppose.

Actually Tiesto made this as a instrumental song, ONLY. But Three 6 Mafia then heard the instrumental version, so they wrote the lyrics to it and they then came out with this wicked song.

Oh come on, with his robotic sounding voice on some of that, there's no way there was no auto tune in that.

Not sure what you're talking about tbh. Take a listen to T-pain and then back and listen to sean kingston and there's a big difference. Could you pinpoint the part in the song you're talking about?

I was expecting to completely hate it, but it's strangely decent.

..as a "club banger", at least.

Feel It originally intended for a Tiësto solo instrumental version only. Although this was heard by Three 6 Mafia, from here they wanted to add their own vocals. They recruited Sean Kingston & Flo Rider to join them for the making of what became Feel It ft Tiësto, Flo Rider & Sean Kingston

love the instrumental

Whenever Kingston sings "I wanna feel it!" - that's where his voice gets higher than normal and it takes on a very robotic quality. Whether or not it's Auto Tune, it's been manipulated.

T-Pain's songs are nothing but Auto Tune, you can't compare.

It's not autotune. What you're hearing is another vocal layer. It certainly makes it thicker, and I see how you arrived at that conclusion, but it's not autotune. Sounds like the layer is just mixed in by tiesto - should be the same sample that's used solo 3:30-3:35.

Compare it to say, the chorus in T-Pain's Bartender. T-Pain's isn't thick, it's just a single vocal layer that's slightly choppy. Sean Kingston's is smooth.

Sounds a fuck load like Auto Tune to me and not a second layer of vocals ... It's not bad, though, just annoying. But certainly better than the new Black Eyed Peas song ("Good Day", I think it's called) and anything to come from T Pain.

Lots of R+B songs have doubled up vocals during the chorus. I'm almost positive it's the sample that tiesto uses before the song starts just layered on to kingston. Listen carefully when he starts saying "I" from "I want to feel it", there's 2 distinct layers - the "DJ'd" one is at a lower pitch, and then pitch rises to match the "real" one.

I think autotune is fine where needed. I'd rather not start a debate about talent etc, but it is what it is.

So true. I hate it.

Here's a song about it

Why do you dislike it? There have always been critics of new musical trends... it's been happening for over a thousand years. It's important to recognize that it is what it is. If you don't like it, don't listen to it.

Here's a song that uses autotune. Do you think this song is a disgrace, too?

I dislike it because it means even more than before you can take someone with utterly no talent and make it sound like they can sing. So it fills the market with even more shit generic music than before.

OMG, you like that song? The vocals made my ears bleed. The melody could use some help, too. Entire song of Auto Tune. Techno songs have better synthesizer work on the vocals. OMG.
