Modal tense

Could you tell me how I choose the best singer.

We can use the present simple to express a habit/no particular time (see above).

Can we express a habit/no particular time frame with modal tenses also?

Could you tell me how I should choose the best singer.

Or does this express a particular time?

Thanks

Yes, present modals can also be timeless present, and that clause is a case in point.
