Iincho / いいんちょ

mylist | community | blog

Iincho has yet to pass his first year since he uploaded his first cover in NND last November, 2010, which is why he only has a few uploads, some of them repeats of his older covers. Despite that, he has quite a satisfactory view rate, most probably because of the high quality of his uploads plus his signature voice quality. Note that he is different from the Taiwanese utaite, Iinchou, and their names' spellings are different, too ^^.

Iincho's voice is deep and solid, with a slight velvety aura in ballads or jazz songs. He has a very low range, but he can do falsettos if he wants to with little effort, making him really flexible. He has, however, just a bit of force in his voice, so he sounds a bit weak at rockish songs. Despite that, he can pull off singing rock and upbeat songs by making his cover sounds suave instead of loud. His voice can be likened a bit to Panyo and Yuuto. He's often described as someone with an ike-ero voice.

While he only has a few solo covers, Iincho likes collaborating with other people, mostly in duets. He also appeared in Smiling ~Show Time!.

I first knew of Iinchou in Smiling ~Showtime!, but since there were so many singers in that collab, it was a bit hard to keep track of everyone. Eventually I found him again in his cover of Sweets and Bitters with FISH and I instantly loved the cover (even more than the original). Since then, I've been following his works, which are sadly very few, but still good listens.

NAL

mylist | community


NAL is a very prolific, yet underappreciated singer. He started uploading songs in 2008 and is still growing strong today. He's often teased for having an "ossan" voice, but I personally think it's not the case. In fact, he's one of those utaite who can sing just about anything with his voice quality. You might remember NAL as the one who did the rap parts for this certain Mr. Music cover with Ashinaga Ojiisan, Srip, etc.

NAL has a slightly scratchy but powerful voice which is perfect for singing loud rock ballads and any passionate song. He also has a pretty good range, and can sing super low and powerfully high without sounding hoarse. If he can be compared to other utaite, his voice is almost like Yuge's in terms of power and range. But aside from singing loud rock songs, he can also do acoustic ballads which sound like country music (in a good way!). He can even sing rap arranges of songs. He is definitely an all-around guy who can sing anything if he puts his mind in it.

Aside from singing solo, Nal does a lot of covers, his duets mostly with utaite MILIA.

I'm a bit late in knowing about NAL, since I just heard him from Mr. Music. However, since I checked every one of their mylists, I found that I really liked NAL's singing voice, especially in rock/ballads. I am not much of a rap fan, and I prefer him singing slow songs, but he pulls off everything so nicely, it's hard not to like his works. He also has quite high quality uploads (and a wonderful voice) since the start of his upload, and it's pretty admirable. He's also especially nice to his fans.
