The most rock'n roll that rock'n roll gets, AC-DC! They have been one of my favourites for most of my (short) life. And as many of you know, they are split into two main eras: Pre 1980 with the legendary BON SCOTT on lead vocals, and post 1980 with the iconic BRIAN JOHNSON! Now with the help of this community, among others, I finally got my connected full voice up to the high e, the high note present in most of Bon Scotts early rock epics!!! The E5 is a note hit in most of those early hits, but I have never heard him go higher than that without falsetto/reinforced falsetto. So thank you for helping me train that integral note (singing my vowels right was the last missing piece btw) I can do all the Bon Scott-era songs somewhat more correctly, now that falsetto isn't my only option anymore! And that's actually what I came here to ask... The second main singer, Brian Johnson, gets a lot of both praise and ridicule online. One eternal discussion is whether he sings in a connected "mixed-voice" like Bon Scott did, or does he just distort his falsetto and sing everything without connection to chest. His singing (especially on studio albums) is even higher up than the late Mr.Scott's, so do I just screech through the songs, or do I get another reason to train my connected full voice EVEN HIGHER?😰 I have the potential for a connected A5, but as of right now it's still unusable. Im getting there though, thanks again to this wonderful community and it's experts!!!🤩

Wohoo!!! With tips i saw here and on Youtube, I found my mix (im 99% sure🤭)!!! After years of choir and band singing my chest voice is really strong, so the contrast with my falsetto was way too big. So, I tried to find my mix, and I did! Almost right away i was able to sing up to a G5, without a break! However, I noticed an issue right away as well... My chest to mix contrast is still just as bad, just not in the same way as switching from chest to falsetto Lower mix (Up to a Bb4) is not an issue, those upper fourth octave notes are my highest chest notes, but previosly I had one way of hitting them; loudness, pushing and strain. Now those notes are easier and more reliable, so thanks for that! The problem I ran into though is this:When I go past my highest chest notes using my mixed voice, my voice becomes at least two of these, usually all at the same time: 1)Airy & weak 2)Shaky & trembly 3) Unreliable & uncontrolled 4) Strained & taxing SO, can I do something, or will my mix only be something I can use to upgrade my chest notes, without providing more actually appliable range? Are everyones high notes horrible at first? Videos on mixed voice usually present it as something that when found, turns you into the perfect singer over night. I've just been working REALLY hard on this, and more work can be a frustrating reward😅 Well, I should have expected this... Additional info: My mixed voice doesn't get worse or better as I go up. It's just as bad in C5 as in a G5 a fifth above! Weird, right? The problem is not in trying to be too chesty, at least i don't think so. I have already thinned and thinned and lightened and lightened my chest voice to reach any kind of mix, so im not trying to get all of that weight of my naturally lower voice into my E5:s Support is under control as well, at least has been with my chest voice for years. Thanks a bunch for anyone taking time out of their day to even read this, double thanks for responses!

I have been around music for my whole life, musical family and all that. So, naturally, I have picked up an instrument or two over the years. First it was the drums, and there were hundreds of different drumming related YouTube channels that helped me out over the years, and thousands more left for me to discover. Then it was the same with guitar, bass, sax... But only recently I noticed how I had been neglecting my favourite instrument, taking it for granted! And that is of course SINGING! Sure, I guess I have always been able to kinda sing, you know, staying on pitch, picking up melodies. But I have never practiced it, even though I have always thought it to be the most beautiful instrument there is! I just never thought of myself as a singer! Well backstory is over, and this brings us to around four months ago. I get on YouTube once more, with the intent of learning cool stuff about singing, expecting it to be just like with all other instruments. But... Something is different! This time there are only a few channels around?!?! And especially with more niche stuff, such as subharmonic techniques, there are just a couple channels? Subharmonic techniques are a good example of my confusion. I expect there to be hundreds, if not thousands, of guys telling me how to sing lower, step by step. Instead, there are so few singers in the subharmonic scene, that they all pretty much get named in each video on the subject. And it's the same everywhere you go in YouTube singing! Rock singing has a few more channels, but I mean, everyone just watches Chris Liepe, right? At first when I realized how surprisingly small the world of singing is online, I was actually a little relieved. The sheer amount of, lets say, guitar content is overwhelming. But I guess this is about the natural differences between learning and teaching singing, compared to other musical skills. With for example guitar playing: 1) You can just show the student where to put their fingers 2) The same stuff works pretty much every time
