Hi guys, would like some advice on a problem I've been having. Recently my voice has been rather unstable. Some days it can be great and clear and I can sing in my full range comfortably without much strain, but some days it feels like there's a frog in my throat: lots of flam, inability to project clearly, pitching goes awry etc.
On those occasions even my falsetto, which I can normally access easily, feels very strained, thin and contrived. This rather puzzles me because I generally take quite good care of my throat: I don't really smoke, drink liquor or eat weird stuff.
The only thing I can think of is either that my voice doesn't take kindly to air-con (since school started I've been in air-con 9 to 9 every day). This would account for the flam and stuff, although I'm still not very sure why its so volatile.
Possibly, it could also be bad vocal technique? I've never really had much formal training, picking up tips here and there and through observation. Recently though due to a mix of laziness and desire to sound more grungy I've been using more of the throat to hit high notes. Perhaps that's why my voice has been so ravaged?
Would like to hear what you guys have to say on this. Thanks a lot everyone in advance.
