    Geoff defines himself like a bass baritone or bassitone , last note was an astounding subharmonic E1 . Brava ;)

      @Tryst46 3 роки тому

      I'm sure that was lower than E1. I can go down to E1 fairly easily and I really struggled to get that last note in the Oogie Boogie song.
      In contrast, Geoff does his own version of "Misty Mountains Cold" where he hits an E1 at the end. That is at least a couple of notes higher than this one.

    VoicePlay is masterful at mixing silly and professional; it's kind of their schtick. And Geoff- the bass singer- has around a five octave range. The descent that he does at the end actually spans from B4 to a subharmonic E1 (and those are neither his highest nor his lowest notes). He really displays his range and versatility to great effect on his solo channel, where he performs songs in a 4 or 5 part harmony, using his vocals for all parts. The results are amazing.
    And VoicePlay- all of the other guys are just as talented as Geoff. At the time of this video, I think they had all (with the exception of J. None) been singing together for nearly 10 years (Geoff, Layne- the beatboxer, and Earl- the guy with the beard all grew up together and have been singing as a group since about 1997). But what I've noticed over the last year, as they've had gaps in their lineup and brought in feature artists, is that they are exceptionally skilled at blending with just about anyone. All of their features fit in seamlessly, as though they'd been with the group for ages.

      Geoff has a massive 4 octave range, he shows it in his tutorial video on how to sing low notes.
      He is probably the one person that most people listen to Voiceplay for but they really miss the pure tones of Cesar, the rock belt of Eli and the kickass sounds from Layne the beatboxer.
      The group as it is now is well suited and they harmonise so well, it's not surprising that they are award winners.
      Layne also does the initial mixing as well and passes it on to a professional mixer for the final tweaks.
      The result is, as you can hear, something that makes almost everyone raise an eyebrow in surprise.

      They're one of the Big Three a capella groups out there right now, with Pentatonix and Home Free. For some reason though, they don't get as much publicity, but they are easily as talented. (Personally, I like their style far better than the other two, but your mileage may vary.)

    • @Tryst46
      @Tryst46 3 роки тому +1

      @@CynicalTesuji Personally, I think Voiceplay easily beat the other two you named.
      Their style is far more varied, from family musicals like the Moana Medley right up to rock opera and more.
      Layne is a far better beatboxer than most of the groups I've heard, some of the noises he makes seem impossible for a human voice.
      Eli's rock belt is amazing considering he appears to be doing it without any effort at all.
      Cesar has such a pure and clear voice too, close your eyes and you would think it's a 12 year old singing.
      As for Geoff, well, he even does his own productions that really show off his range and versatility.
      When they pick a singer to accompany them, they adapt to the new voice so well that you would think all of them have been singing together for years.

    • @Tryst46
      @Tryst46 3 роки тому

      The Halo theme I didn't find as good, there are no words in it though, so it's mostly harmonising rather than singing. They are good at harmonising, but I prefer when they sing a song.
      Hoist the Colours is probably their best yet. They are going to have to go some to beat it in my view, but knowing Voiceplay, they will beat it.

    Geoff Castellucci, basso extraordinaire. 5+ octave range, has hit a B0 (in Voiceplay's new Halo Theme video). All of their stuff is very theatrical. Geoff and Layne (the beat boxer) do almost all of the arranging. Unusual for an acapella group to have a bass as their lead singer. Great reaction as always...

    Hope to see you look at some of his individual songs, as well as more of VoicePlay's works overall! :)

    It's clever, creative, and as you say, professionally performed. In spite of being a "Boogie Man/Creepy" theme, it doesn't get heavy & grungy with distortion. It has a light-hearted tone to it. Nothing seems to be "overdone." I also like those rhythmic adornments that move the different parts along. The lead singer has a beautiful low range timbre and wow! He also has a well-supported and controlled high range. I'd like to hear more of him. Anna...Again, your analysis and comments are so clear and well explained.

And it is performed with a brand new member as well as a guest collaborator. The arrangement (done by Geoff this time. He and Layne trade off with Eli (tenor 2) jumping in from time to time.

    This group has done many collaborations and has a very varied repertoire, entertaining, and as you can guess of great quality. Personally I would like to see your analysis of the song My mother told me, made during the pandemic, which I imagine made it even more difficult, as they must have been separated, and recording and combining all the recordings must have been exhausting.

    Yes Geoff Castellucci is one of the top 3 Acapella bass singers. The other 2 are Tim Foust of Home Free and Avi Kaplan formerly of Pentatonix ( he is now pursuing a solo career). Pentatonix are the clean cut "student council kids", VoicePlay are the "theater kids" and Home Free are the "4H Club kids ( the country/ farm kids)

    You asked who is doing the beatboxing. That would be Layne. He is the guy with the glowing nose to the right in the shot (Who had the "To add a little spice"). He is founding member of voiceplay and does a lot of the production composition work.
    You should really do a reaction to voiceplay singing "My mother told me". It's a great chance to see the different members. And it's a repeating theme that they keep adding variations to throughout the song. It would be cool to hear you giving the play by play.

    Geoff isn't just a great singer either. He does a lot of their arrangements and even does arrangements for other groups. You likely already know who Peter Hollens is (if not please react to something, _anything_ by him immediately) and Home Free is another accapella group like Voiceplay with a bass that, well Geoff and Tim Faust talk about each other positively and with admiration.
    Home Free's cover of the song 'Alvira' feat. the original artists, the Oak Ridge Boys' and Peter Hollens' cover of 'Misty Mountains Cold' feat. Tim Faust of Home Free were both arranged by Geoff.

    Oih, Voiceplay! Heillä on paljon teatteri- ja elokuvamusiikkia. Musavideot tuppasi ennen olemaan aika tylsiä, mutta viime aikoina he ovat panostaneet puvustukseen ym enemmän. Esimerkiksi Karibian merirosvoelokuvista tuttu Hoist the Colours.
    Amerikanmaan a cappellan kolme kovaa: kantrikutoinen Home Free, poppahtava Pentatonix ja teatraalinen Voiceplay. Kaikki erittäin hyviä ja taitavia - suosikki määräytyy ehkä juurikin musiikkityylin perusteella.
    Itse kallistun vahvasti Home Freen puoleen. Mutkatonta mutta mainiota musisointia. Joka kappaleessa ei yritetä shokeerata kuulijaa, vaan mennään enemmän kappaleen kuin näyttämishalun ehdoilla.
    Ja voit valita minkä kappaleen tahansa, eikä valinta mene mene pieleen. Omia suosikkejani ovat Man of Constant Sorrow, Folsom Prison Blues (alkup Johnny Cash!), ja joulua lähestyttäessä Do You Hear What I Hear.
    Tiedän että tykkäät live-esityksistä.. yleisön kännyköillä kuvaamissa videoissa on yleensä surkea äänenlaatu, mutta Country Rebelin kanavalla on pari ihan hyvänlaatuista videota. Laitan linkin kommenttiin.

    @pacalvotan3380 3 роки тому

    Another piece of music that exhibits Geoff Castellucci's deep base would be Voiceplay's "My Mother Told Me". His range is definitely amazing though...most people seem to agree that he can hit an E1 without difficulty...but then jump into a high tenor in his next breath. I'm not a singer by any stretch of the imagination, but I still find that amazing.

    So you do appreciate acapella. This is another promo for Voctave. With 11 voices, Master arranger/founder Jamie Ray can achieve any sound he imagines but sometimes he wants to save all his instruments for the foundation and bring in featured artist from other groups. For the Disney Love Medely he invited Kirsten (from PTX) and her then-fiance/part time singer. This clip is from the first read-through with the guests. See how they react...it's special.

    Kiva nähdä suomalasenkin reaktio VoicePlayn tuotantoon. Itse olen tämän vuoden aikana hurahtanut siihen ja katsonut lukemattomat määrät reaktiovideoita. Ryhmän bassolla, Geoff Castelucci, on soolomateriaalia myös, mm. House of the rising sun, sixteen tons, ja viimeisin Halloween teeman mukaisesti Monster mash. Ja oma VoicePlayn suosikkini on ehdottomasti Hoist the colors!

    Another cover by the bass of this group is "13 Tons". It will blow you away. Also another group you need to cover is Home Free. VoicePlay competed against Home Free in 2014. I believe VoicePlay came in 3rd place behind Home Free. Maybe start with the cover of "Man of Constant Sorrow" that Home Free covers. Then they cover Boyz2Men's "End of the Road". These groups are all acapella.

    VoicePlay on loputon kaivo, ei näistä saa tarpeekseen. Geoff Castellucci tekee bassocovereita omalle kanavalleen, suosittelen tutustumaan! Nyt, kun kuitenkin ollaan lähdetty a cappellan maailmaan niin haluan ehdottaa "Voctave - O Come, All Ye Faithful". En itse ole hengellinen ihminen, mutta arvostan upeita laulusuorituksia ja tuo sitä kyllä tarjoaa. Mielestäni kyseinen video ei ole saanut tarpeeksi huomiota reaktiovideoiden tekijöiltä, vaikka ansaitsisi sitä. Näkisin, että sinulla voisi olla kommentti jos toinenkin tähän!
