Recently, I've been training the algo to deliver the most unhinged "TRUTHS" out there. The less reasonable, the better. So without further ado, I present The Tinfoil Hat Newsletter:

1. Stargates are real and USA invaded Iraq to uncover multi-dimensional portals. 🧵1/∞Image Mistaking literal balloons on strings for something nefarious:

Why is learning voice hard? Why does it seem every voice teacher has a different way of approaching voice education? How can I achieve my vocal goals?

This thread is going to answer all of that and more as time goes on. 🧵 1/22 Image First, the fundamental problems in voice learning are rarely addressed explicitly (if ever). Let's start there: what is the fundamental problem?

Composer Tip:
Always write an ending, even to single parts or small themes. Avoid hanging parts, they create problems when the initial spark of the idea isn't present anymore. Conclude all ideas even if you don't conclude it that way later on. Trains the skill of transitioning. Transitions and endings are core structural moments in the form. Conclusion is the same regardless of where you are in the form, just different intensity. Conclusion creates space for introduction. Anything is justified if you mark the form and signal a turning in the material.
