Re: Fear of Chest
Even if I posted a clip of full chest voice, you would still need something else to compare it to so you can hear the difference of what I'm talking about. And you could be doing a million different things. You could be using varying degrees of less chest, but in a balanced way. Or you could be singing in varying degrees of let go chest, which is unbalanced. You could be singing in overcompressed chest. Etc., etc., etc. Josh understood last night when I talked to him because I knew exactly what he used to do, and could show him the difference. He can tell you firsthand how hard I worked to get him to the right sound, because he would do everything EXCEPT for the right sound. (Goes back to what I'm saying about there's so many different things that you could be doing, so you can't just make a clip and say here. I constantly made the right sound, yet he didn't get to it until we worked through all the wrong sounds.) The main thing I can say is that full chest is LOUD and BRASSY. If the sound you're making does not fit that description, then it's not full chest.
