ok guys so I was just listening to some great vocal trance tracks i recently downloaded (luminary & funabashi) and i started thinking... why dont we have any really good Christian vocal EDM artists? i know some of you out there can sing... I'm trying to find a vocalist (preferably female) that would be willing to sing some lyrics over existing instrumental trance tracks thus creating a totally Christian worship track. im pretty good at writing lyrics but you wont catch me singin'  ...is there anyone out there that could answer this call? here's a couple of my personal favs: (in order) [female] #1 - Jan Johnston - Oakenfold...and many others #2 - Justine Sussia - Oceanlab #3 - Ashley Tomberlin - Luminary #4 - Damae - Fragma #5 - Noemi - Possibly Chrisitan? #6 - Lange - Lange [male] (no order) BT Kyu vs Albert ATB Dogzilla

Well...that's exactly what I'm working on. Not sure if it'll be good (!) but I should have a 3 song ep done by next month. Trancy/Breaky with vox. My voice (just a little) and two female singers I know. One of them was a live backup singer for the finale of American Idol for Fantasia. I know...big whoop but there ya go.

And I have heard unconfirmed rumors that the next ShelterShed record will have some nice woman vocals.
Plus, what about Mr. Hunter? Can't discount his stuff on Exodus.

ha ha... true. so, would that be nice vocals sung by a woman or plain vocals sung by a nice woman? Well, as for the nice man vocals I will stay out of it. ha ha... my vocals are nothing to brag about. (although I did sing on a few of my dnb tracks)  z.

[Oakenfold & Jan] Unafraid ( Paul Oakenfold Mix) Southern Sun Am I On Pause Silent Words Perfecto's Greatest Hits (Perfecto Compilation) i could go on... ...you know...before making negative comments about something that you know obviously nothing about ...do a little research. Faster Kill Pussycat is with Brittney Murphy, and Sex'n Money isn’t even Oakenfold at all its Pharrell Williams...the entire point of this thread was to discuss making new Christian vocals...its has absolutly nothing to do with existing secular vocals and even less to do with the content of those lyrics. i simply listed those singers becuase i like there voices....  a very wise man once said... "If you don't have something nice to say...don't say anything at all."

I've got a dub i'm working on atm too. Kinda titled it 'Pathfinder' Here are the rough, very rough, lyrics:
You are my pathfinder showing me the safe way thru this mine field of deceipt you're light of truth lead me to you
('cause) You are watching You are waiting When i am hesitating [line here] [line here] [line here]
As i say very rough. I need a good vocalist now...

i dont know how to say this without sounding sexist but i would almost always choose female over male vocals... for EDM music at least... i guess it depends on the over tone and pitch of your track but my ears would always rather hear a beautiful female voice singing hypnotically rather then some dude  do u have a sample of the track done?

dude NICE JOB. i'd agree though it needs some vocals for sure. and maybe bring the melody out a little more but its definintly GRADE A work. you mentioned a euphoric break down...probably a good plan. im looking forward to the final product!
