You wanna do polyphonic throat singing huh?
Cool! Let me try to explain. So the throat singing you’re doing right now is called subharmonic throat singing. This is done with a combination of a creaky sound called vocal fry and the shape of your mouth when you do it. It makes it sound like you’re singing an octave lower than you actually are. Some Mongolian folk use the false vocal cords to do this, but since yours is lazier, and fry based, it involves the true vocal cords.
To get the higher polyphonic harmonic variety, you likely need to play with a higher pitched ER sound and move back and forth between this and an EE sound with the tongue slightly pulled back. Sometimes it can be hard to tell if you’re getting it, but if you download an app called Spectrum View on iOS, you can literally see the harmonics being boosted while you do it. Those boosts are called formants. Typically the harmonic ones you’re looking for will be higher up.
As you can see, the higher lines here are in the high 2k Hz and some extending to 3k and beyond. I would LOVE to show you some time or even hear you try this. :) the human voice is cool.
