articulation in upper register

My articulation from High C down is gorgeous, quite clear, quite even, and quite without grunts and undertones.... however as soon as i go beyond that starting with C# i get all kinds of undertones or overtones... You would think i had no idea what the meaning of articulation is... I've been trying all sorts of things and the only thing i can come up with is this: i've noticed that my throat moves alot more when i articulate up there probably due to the increased resistance of the air column, i just can't figure out how to minimize the throat movement while articulating. I don't know if this is the problem but that's all i can come up with considering that that's the only thing i am doing that is noticeably different when i articulate up that high.
