MAGADIZING

Nah, this isn't about making America great again though if we were to implement the singing of octaves again (I have no clue what that is) it just might do the trick that auto tune can't.

MAGADIZING

A term sometimes used for the "most primitive type of polyphony," i. e., singing in octaves. The term is derived from magadis, an ancient Greek harp in which each string was doubled by one giving the higher octave.
