Project Overview
Hi, I'm trying to get people together to sing an English cover of "Blessed Messiah and the Tower of Ai"! There's a lot of roles to take, so feel free to audition for as many as you want! (I'm not double-casting though, I'm hoping to get a different singer for each role!)
Where's Miku? I know self-casting sucks and is totally unprofessional, but I've decided to sing as Miku for this song. I'm so sorry!!
For this cover we'll be using SirHamnet's lyrics, which can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WODrHNrpfYw

RULES:
1. Please have decent audio quality. It doesn't need to be professional or anything, but if it sounds like you're recording with a potato I don't think that'll work. If it sounds like you're recording in a very echo-y room, that won't work, either.
2. I will primarily be communicating with people via Discord. It's not an absolute MUST, but if you have one then it would really make a lot of things easier. (It's also free!)
3. PLEASE have Google Drive or Gmail. It's how I'll be keeping all the files together since Discord hates big files, and right now it's the only way I can receive files from people
4. I'm fairly flexible when it comes to deadlines, but if you keep pushing then then unfortunately I will have to recast.
5. Most of all, have fun! This is supposed to be a fun project, it shouldn't feel stressful.

I don't know voice ranges very well, so I'd say Kaito has a sort of tenor/baritone vocal range. Definitely not as high as Len, and not as low as Gakupo.
In a land on the brink of its demise...
We will face all our fortune and pain as one! (if you can also do a sort of evil chuckle with this one, that would be great!)
Meiko is a mezzo, maybe a soprano. I'm looking for a very powerful voice for her, rather than a soft one.
Ten wretched children left behind
The words of prophecy
From the moment friendship would turn into hate
As she took the "Fiery Feast" by her side
IA doesn't really go super high or low, so she's a mezzo (along with most of the other girls in this song). As an older sister, her voice should be soft and mature-sounding.
Little hands holding onto dear life
In the midst of all destruction
Shielding the world from ruin is the "Tower of Ai"
Next they found the "Graceful Sunlight,"
Which was won over by older sister's open hands as she smiled happily
Mayu is supposed to be IA's younger, so she shouldn't sound super mature, but she shouldn't be childish either. I feel like her vocal range would be around mezzo-soprano or just soprano.
That is where the life of the earth still burns on...
Running off in irritation,
Little sister moved towards the "Restful Darkness" and she would never be seen again
Even as I lost my mind to the dark unknown...
Whoever gets this role should probably have a REALLY good ear; Gumi is a mezzo, but she has a lot of harmonies and they're probably the only ones I have yet to actually pick out.
From another distant kingdom
came a messenger bearing a letter to the youths
Keeping it to yourself...
(lower notes)
Just how much can someone truly be altered by "greed"?
Gakupo has the lowest voice out of everyone in the song. Maybe not quite a bass, but probably a baritone or tenor; he has a bit of a range.
Trusting that in sickness and health
Go forward with all your heart
Devoured by the great earth...
Like IA, I imagine Luka to have a mature-sounding voice. Her vocal range is probably mezzo-soprano.
Try to hold onto glory in your hands
Who is your enemy?
Now the "Whirwind Rondo"'s taken by...
Rin is definitely a soprano; aside from Miku, she probably has the highest notes. She's also one of the younger members of the group, so I imagine her to have a sort of younger voice as well.
We have all been told the story
Foolish, arrogant men overstepped the boundaries of God
(higher notes)
And the very first blessing will be
The "Blossoming Wave" of the sea
We will face all our fortune and pain as one!
Len's voice range is weird, that's why I'm allowing male and female auditions if they're super tenor or super alto. Like for Gumi, whoever takes this role should have a fairly good ear, since Len has a lot of harmonies as well.
(lower notes)
We will face all our fortune and pain as one!
Heaven sent their judgement and then all was lost
Then you must sharpen heart and mind
Quickly as you can
