those are some beautiful drones, jim.

as much as i'm tempted to slag the new-agey presentation & song titles (being yet somewhat of an obstreperous youth at 29), i can't; that's just really an ecstatic, honest sound, and it shows in yr face on the video... thanks for sharing. any tips for getting the knack of harmonic overtone singing? it's a sound that has always fascinated me.

i'm actually involved in a mostly ambient band which seems to do much the same thing with analog/digital keys & guitar, with some vocals starting to slowly creep into the mix... perhaps we could collaborate at some point? we have some free mp3's at http://www.colorforms.net if you'd care to listen.

be well,

jack

Thanks very much Jack! I really appreciate the feedback and glad
that it's positive, too.

For a quick 'mini-lesson' go to:

Please feel free to contact me off-list for specific questions that
arise after some practice and I'll be more than glad to try to be
helpful.

...speaking of beautiful (and mysterious) drones! I listened for
awhile this morning to the WRUW collage.

Thanks again Jack for the encouragement - keep up the good work
yourself, too.

Good luck with OT singing,
