Obviously you can’t get Post Malone’s voice as that is unique to his upbringing as well as the physical structure of his throat, mouth and the way sound moves through his airways. He almost sounds like if James Blake had grown up in Houston, instead of London. Now Post Malone doesn’t have a great singing voice as he does use a fair amount of Auto-tune but what he does have is a unique voice: he sounds like a British cowboy who grew up on equal parts hip hop, R&B and country. Your voice is the foundation of your music and no amount of mixing and mastering is going to fix your voice. It really doesn’t get more basic than his voice! The more important question aspiring artists should be asking themselves is: how can I be as good as Post Malone? Not how can I sound like him. The former having much more thinner vocals and longer reverb tails, while the latter sounds like a more traditional hip hop mix.ĭo the vocals on these songs sound anything alike? No. The mixing on “White Iverson” is completely different than the mixing on say “Candy Paint”. What Post Malone Sound?Īnother thing to keep in mind is when people say they want the Post Malone sound, what sound are they referring to? Post Malone’s audio engineer just does what every professional audio engineer does: adds the right amount of compression, eq, reverb and delay to Post Malone’s vocals.Īnd if you ask me his mastering engineer didn’t do such a good job on his first album Stoney cause the album sounded over compressed and harsh. ![]() ![]() No amount of reverb is going to mask your real voice and make you sound like Post Malone or anyone else for that matter. There are no fx that’ll help you get Post Malone’s voice, you can’t eq your vocals to sound like his. Post Malone, pretty much like every great artist, has their own unique voice. I’ve seen this countless times in my twenty years in the music business, from hearing people that tried to sound like Jay Z to hearing people that still try to sound like Drake: with Post Malone racking up another #1 with Rockstar featuring 21 Savage, a new crop of aspiring artists are asking, “How can I achieve the Post Malone sound?”. Every time an artist gets big, there’s a slew of unsigned artists that pop up out of the woodwork trying to sound just like them.
