Learning to Sing Like Afrojack

Afrojack’s energetic and unique style of music has quickly made him one of the most recognizable DJs and producers in the industry. However, his style also translates to his vocals when he’s performing live, which sets him apart from other DJs.

If you want to learn how to sing like Afrojack, you should focus on the following:

Singing with Power

One of the hallmarks of Afrojack’s vocals is their sheer power. Whether he’s singing quietly or belting out notes, his voice always seems to carry. This comes from training his diaphragm over time to produce strong and stable notes.

To develop this type of power in your own voice, Singing Carrots’ pitch training exercises like the “Farinelli Breath” are great resources. Afrojack also began singing in choirs at a young age, so practicing vocal exercises in a group setting, like Singing Carrots’ vocal warm-ups, can be especially helpful.

Vocal Range

Afrojack’s voice is known for its unique depth and range, which he uses in his music to add layers and texture to tracks. If you want to sing like him, it’s important to find and develop your own vocal range.

Start with Singing Carrots’ vocal range test, as it’s a great tool for determining what this range is. Once you know your vocal range, you can begin practicing exercises like “Chest Voice Explained” and “Mixed Voice” to round out and improve your range overall.

Vocal Registers

Afrojack’s use of vocal registers is yet another part of his unique singing style. He often switches from chest to mixed voice in his songs, producing a richer and more dynamic sound.

Understanding how to use, like he does, Singing Carrots’ resources for learning voice registers, like “Sustain Vocal” and “Voice Break”, you can practice using different voice registers and improve your overall vocal flexibility.

Articulation

Finally, Afrojack has a very distinct style of articulation that makes his vocals stand out from other singers. He often rolls his Rs and emphasizes consonants, which can help add a great deal of character and power to your own singing.

To develop your own articulation style, try Singing Carrots’ “Finger Bite” articulation exercise specifically tailored for developing effective enunciation in singing.

Make sure to train your diaphragm for power, focus on developing your vocal range and flexibility, and practice your articulation skills.
