  1. In my opinion it is necessary to start a thread about his voice. For starters, exactly, if possible to sum up, what was his technique?
  2. It has been a while, and once again I am happy with the improvement I am making. I just have another question as always lol. During my practice sessions I do not get become horse, but after a while my head voice/ passagio becomes more and more airy on the open vowels and a bit on closed. What can this be from?
  3. Anyone who writes pet sounds, is simply amazing. Anymore input on his voice?
  4. You know, I had this done when I was about 8 years old. These past ten years, I have always thought it was a bad thing to have that much space in my throat. But after reading this, I starting to think it is not that bad at all! Good luck with your new voice. I am almost positive your chest voice will have so much more resonance.
  5. I was wondering what type of vocal techniques he used to produce his voice? A perfect example is this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4MqEORoH4pM . He claims it was falsetto, but i doubt it was. I can get a tone similar to his, but it sounds a bit weaker. If I know what techniques he used, I could get a better idea of how to make it stronger. Thanks a lot for the help. :cool:
  6. Hello there it's been two weeks or so since my last post and I have to admit my voice is getting better. But still, I have more questions that I hope could be answered. My first question for you all is singing in key/on pitch. Sometimes I do sometimes I don't. Are there any excercises for this? And second is head voice vowels. When I am in headvoice, I can sing ee, as In he, and o as in goat without an airy sound. But when I try the rest of the vowels, I get an airy sound. How can this be fixed? Once again I thank you all for your great advice.
  7. So today I decided to, after reading the times that some people practice on this forum, to increase my practice time by 2 hours. After practice I was a tiny bit horse, but only for about 1-3 min. Is that bad or is it just the voice getting used to a longer practice?
  8. And by the way, that exercise.....let's just say it's pretty hard not to laugh. But it is a very good one.
  9. Quick question before I try this new one out. Let's just say I have a rather large tongue. It's not so large that its scary, but it bigger than the average person. Could my tongue be too big for my mouth? Therefor, getting caught up in my throat?
  10. Sorry for taking a while to respond. Steven, I tried what you told me to do and found that I could shape my vowels with just my soft pallet, dropping of jaw, and a slight dip in the tongue. Is there anything else I should be looking for?
  11. It's late, so I will try this tommorow morning. But one thing, could you explain front side to side and flat front to back. Thank you for you present and future assistance.
  12. From what I read no. The reason for this is the blocking of the throat with the root of the tongue. When the tongue is rested parallel to the ground, it blocks the back of the throat. http://www.voiceteacher.com/tongue.html check that out its a bit long but you should understand it more after reading that page. Do not forget, I am a beginner, therefor you should stick around and wait for a reply from someone else.
  13. I recently found out that when I form my broad vowels, my tongue goes flat. To my knowledge, a flat tongue is very bad! If I am correct, a flat tongue is a leading cause of a hoarse voice, lack of resonance, pitch instability, and much more. My question to you all is how can I stop my tongue from going flat? I try to slowly go from a narrow vowel to broad vowel. But when I do, the tongue just goes flat. I also tried to first form the broad vowel with my lips and not drop the jaw, vice verse. But still, I can not form the vowel without dropping the jaw. Any suggestions?
  14. A while back when I was doing Singing Success, by Brett Mannings, he spoke of a high larynx being bad. Therefor, when you say close to the chin do you mean high larynx? Also is it very high in the throat, close to the Digastric muscles, or is it midway between normal placement and extremely high, close to Digastric? Also when I slide up to my head voice, I get to B5-C6 and stop. It feels like my throat is closing up. Would that be using my extrinsic muscles? Last but not least, my larynx moves up when I go that high.
  15. Thanks for the response. A couple of questions on your response. First off, what do you mean by,"tilt of the larynx?" Second, lately I have been experiencing resonance, in chest voice, in the middle of the hard pallet, rather than back of the top front teeth. Do you mean directly behind the teeth? Or the middle spot that I have spoken of?
