Air leaking

Ok so in my attempt to lighten the mass and sing higher i noticed something.

 

When i try to sing fuller high but with lighter registration, or in other words wile trying to go into head voice aroun B4 i notice something.

 

The notes sounds decently full (for a starter) but i blow air in an instant and also i noticed i can completely mute that sound but the air still goes out, whereas in my normal range D3 or smthing i cant really blow air while muting the note.

 

Is the vocal cords adduction problem here and is this actually falsetto and not really a head voice?

 

Edit: https://app.box.com/s/p00xvpbkdzjj1vaovsc2chjp6qs7gd8e - this is EXAGERATTED siren and the "leak problem"...i cant really record it better since the "leak" itself isnt really audible but it does happen and i can FEEEEL it :P

 

P.S. only happens when trying to sing, and very rarely on sirens..

Well don't mute anything that word just sounds strange when talking about singing . Sing the vowel ah As in cat. See if that works if it does close your mouth around the ah sound and do scales like that it should help being breathy

 

Thanks alot!! Well im not a native english speaker and i had problem remembering the words "pull back on volume" :P i guess that should sound a bit better than mute :)

I don't understand...

 

Btw: In this clip the high note does not sound full. You are flipping halfway up the siren.

Hence the exageration...if u remember the clip from my other thread wherevyou said i should work like the second clip i posted, that sound is also leaky as hell :) hope that makes more sense

If you recall I did point out you were losing closure in your bridge range. You are right it was not perfect but nevertheless a good starting point in my opinion. You were releasing nicely, no pull and kept your connection. Of all the clips you posted this is the closest thing to a finished sound. If you want we can meet on Skype and I'll try to show you how to build from there.
