Мирон

You can't hide behind a microphone here: the hall amplifies itself. For the first time in my life, I heard my own voice from the opposite wall.

I came out in a gray T-shirt because I would have thought about clothes in something else. There should be as few things as possible that interfere with the stage.

I start singing quietly, almost in a whisper. The voice is a muscle: straining it too much before a performance means ruining the first two songs.

The longest twenty minutes of my life. I always spend them with my back to the mirror - otherwise I start fixing things that no one will see.

From here you can see a fair proportion: one person on stage and a hundred who came to listen. That's why it's scary.

A mirror with lights is not needed for beauty. I'll tell you what I do in those twenty minutes before going out.

They listen to fifty performances a day. You know what wakes them up? It's not the volume. It's the quiet first sentence.

A hanger with suits, a mirror, and a cup of cold coffee. No romance, and that's what I like the most.

The most terrifying silence in a singer's life is not the audience, but those three seconds while they look at each other.

The main mistake beginners make is to hold it far away “to make it look pretty.” This makes the voice thin, not loud.

Three is enough for half of the songs you know by heart. The rest are decorations.

The first recording, made in the kitchen with a borrowed microphone. Impossible to listen to, impossible to throw away.

Half the work is taking off the headphones and listening without them. Speakers lie less.

One hundred seconds, one take, no editing. That's how it sounds in the room.

The best take is almost always the second. The first is a warm-up, the third is a real effort.

The second option is slower. I'll leave both — let's see how the same thing changes.

I check songs on the fly. If it doesn't go with it, it means the rhythm isn't right.

I record between the fridge and the window. The acoustics are better here than in the room — the upholstered furniture eats up the sound.
