Hi, Dean,
I missed the boat on this one! I've only just discovered and joined the site. I'm also a rank amateur with a strong interest in the Gyuto chanting technique rather than a broad musical perspective. I haven't got any sample recordings of my own sound to link from the site yet but I suppose I should put something up soon.
Anyway, Jens Mügge mentioned you so I thought I'd just say hello.
Cheers,
V.

Hi Vicki, Welcome to OMN and our terrific collection of sound explorers. Like you I also find the Gyuto chanting is one of many highlights. I can speak very highly of Jens who is responsible for all of this and many others on the network. In what country do you do most of your singing?
Best, Dean

Hi, Dean,
I used to have a life (before I became a long-term single-parent) and in those days the countries were mostly India and Nepal (near Tibetan refugee communities).
For the last couple of decades it's only been in Australia and mostly in the shower! ;-)
Though I don't class myself as a musician I'm still looking for an outlet: some opportunities to do some chanting rather than have it go to waste, so to speak, especially as my boys are getting old and the empty nest seems not too far away.
Cheers,
V.

Where in Australia?

It's on my profile. Sydney.
I believe you're in Melbourne. I don't travel much. Do you get up to Sydney at all?
We could always have a Skype chat and chant-fest, if meeting in person proves difficult.

Sorry I hadn't looked yet at your profile. I do come to Sydney every so often (twice this year for day trips) but Skype sounds good. My Skype name is the slightly embarassingly named (ambientvoice). If you had been in Melbourne I was going to suggest you visit
our weekly overtone sessions. I'm building a Sydney database for an eventual workshop/concert- I'm aware there's not much throat singing in Sydney... yet.

"... aware there's not much throat singing in Sydney... yet..."
I get the impression it's just me! But maybe I'm wrong. I'd like to be wrong. It would be nice to have some company.
I don't get around much (heading to Qld for Christmas, but that's where the extended family are based). Went to Melbourne earlier this year (just for the day) but don't anticipate another visit.
So until you come up to Sydney, Skype sounds like the best way to demo and discuss sounds and the making thereof. I hope I'm not classed as a heretic when I say I'm not too keen on the overtone (head) sound. I'm pretty much a died-in-the-wool Gyuto enthusiast.
I'll add you as a Skype contact.
Talk soon,
V.

No you're definitely not a heretic. Tonal practices of many sorts are precious (to me).
I do practice and explore various different ways of undertones though I do spend more focus on the different ways of overtoning. Look forward to meeting on Skype.
Best, Dean

Hi guys,
that's old topic but I am new in Sydney, so maybe we could do something at some point.
Met the other week a Mongolian, really good throat singer. Was singing on a street in Newtown.
Cheers
Iza
