Thanks for replying, Jack.
I'm not quite sure how to do several small quotes, so I'll try to cover everything w/o quotes or confusion.

That is the site I used to get a bit of a clue on how to bring my voice down into the chest. Like I said, it has been helping, but I have the sense I still need to practice and practice to get it so I can consistently produce the sound deep down in my chest (I can do it now, but my body keeps "forgetting" how and I have to remind it). This goes hand in hand with my quest in mastering the KS. Sometimes I find it easy to get really good resonance in the chest, and sometimes because of how I've trained my voice to make sound it just wants to stay in the throat. IMO getting consistent chest resonance for my voice needs to happen first, before I can have MAXIMUM results from practicing getting the KS bang-on, although I'm working on that in the meantime too. I believe the tension in my throat I mentioned to be purely physical strain, because how my throat feels seems to be directly related to how much talking I do w/o finding my deep resonant voice.

I think you're right about practicing with stimulation, too. My KS might not be the best but I'll roll with it and keep on improving it in the meantime. In my practice today my KS kind of conked out on me (hard to stay in chest), but I think coupling the (weak) KS with the stimulation did more for my echoes than trying to hold it a bit longer and "correcting" my KS to make it better, which I also tried. The echoes seemed to respond faintly but directly to the KS. That doesn't happen very often. Usually the KS doesn't seem to affect the echoes in an immediate way and I'm not sure why. Maybe I'm not timing it right or need to be more sensitive to the arousal the stim is generating, or something.

That said, I don't know how to describe the emotions that accompanied the sensations in my neck during the music festival. I guess it just felt like I was feeling the music. Like I said earlier, I'm more of the opinion that too much vocal strain is going on in the throat area, but I won't completely dismiss that there might be emotional blockage too. Most strong emotions have been triggering big responses in several spots along the left side of my neck, which are the hot spots I was talking about. These are where my orgasms have been originating lately. My feet also tend to get involved quite often, along my hands and especially fingertips too. In fact, for a while the echoes in my feet would get so strong I was convinced I couldn't handle them and had to find ways to "turn them off" all the time. And not that long ago I discovered that I could relax more and my body would then be able to handle them.

Most of my "unprovoked" echoes happen in the evening, especially right before bed. Sometimes my body won't let me fall asleep before giving me sometimes light and occasionally strong echoes, after which I can easily fall asleep because I was tired to begin with. This week something strange and exciting happened too. I was having a sexual dream, and eventually I dreamed I was having an orgasm, when I instantly awoke to an orgasm of probably the highest intensity I've had yet, though solely located in my balls. It lasted maybe 20 sec and had me rolling around the bed spontaneously for the first time, but no spontaneous noises. I haven't yet experienced a spontaneous need to express myself with sound. I should probably be even more excited about this, but after it happened I pretty much instantly went back to sleep, and so my memory of it is kinda hazy. In fact, if it weren't so strong of an experience I probably would have remembered it as part of my dream.

Well, I think this is long enough for one post. Thanks again for the reply.
