He probably does get fatigue eventually, but it's not the same. He says he usually does those hard to reach low notes when he first wakes up. He also multi-tracks those notes and boost the bass on the recordings. But he can produce them live in the air, since he's done it in live recordings on his tiktok. He has worked hard to improve his lower range. It didn't come naturally, like some people would like to believe. Your voice is a muscle, and he has worked on his voice for a lot of years, and continues to improve.

      You don't develop into a bass; sorry, not the way it works.

      Part of what he can do is because of training for what is called "Broadcast Voices". It is training people take who want to get into being Radio DJs or Broadcasters for the news, etc. and the big thing they learn and work on is projecting their voices. I think that is what really separates Geoff from other great Bass singers is his ability to project his voice as he can and it helps give him one of the cleanest and clearest Baritone voices out there.

When he first did that for Oogie Boogie, it was something that still took him multiple tries to do to get it recorded for the track. He commented that it took him a lot longer to learn how to do it consistently when singing 'live', (particularly because it involves him coming from a fairly high note down to that E1 in a couple of phrases) and they learned that they needed to put the song near the end of the set to get his voice sufficiently warmed up to be sure that he could do it. He hit a C1 for his 'Way Down' video, said it took him 80 takes. It's one thing to technically 'hit' the note and a whole other thing to actually make it 'musical'. He complains that it is Layne who writes the lowest arrangements for him, and the most demanding in going from high to low, and that his goal is NOT to continually sing lower, it is sing better.

  • @DreadKyller
    @DreadKyller Рік тому +20

    Geoff has a video where he explains how he goes so low, utilizing a technique known as subharmonics. It's a vocal technique that is similar to some techniques that have been around in orthodox music for centuries, but it's a fairly unstudied in the world of vocal pedagogy, While people have found ways to explain how to get into the subharmonic register, there's no fully complete agreement about exactly how the mechanism works, I've heard there's a few vocal pedagogy students and ENT students studying it as part of their thesis, so maybe we'll have a definite answer soon. But what we do know is that it utilized the subharmonic series, your voice sounds an octave lower than the pitch you're voice it setup to sing.
    Personally I'm a bass-baritone voice, and Geoff inspired me to learn subharmonics. It took a bit of practice but I managed to learn it myself, I'm no where near as consistent as Geoff with it and I can't get as low as he can (he seems able to go to a second subharmonic (2 octaves lower than target note) which is much harder I've managed to do it once and haven't been able to recreate it), but one thing I can say is that when done well, it feels very easy. To get into subharmonics you are doing something between an M1 chest voice note and vocal fry, you relax your voice into subharmonics and it's a very unique sensation, the frequencies get low enough that you really start feeling the vibrations much stronger. But again you really have to relax into it, introducing tension into subharmonic register you'll notice very quickly, as it will not feel good when doing it wrong.

    • @friedemannkemm63
      @friedemannkemm63 Рік тому +4

      In this video, Geoff avoids subharmonics. It wouldn't have served the song.
      BTW, a Brazilian professor named Leonardo Fuks already did some research on subharmonics. There is a demonstration video where he goes down even to the seventh subharmonic. The 1st subharmonic is an octave below the fundamental, the second a fifth below that, the third an octave below the fundamental (edit: below the first subharmonic) etc, much like mirroring the overtone series.
      Edit: Thanks to Upside Down Pyramid for the correction.

    • @upsidedownpyramid7617
      @upsidedownpyramid7617 Рік тому +2

      Just a quick correction, first subharmonic is an octave lower, second subharmonics is a fifth lower than that, a third subharmonic is 2 full octaves below the original note. I think the only time Geoff has activated second subharmonics is in the halo and the skyrim themes with his B0 and D1 respectively. Most people can activate a good subharmonic when the note is too low in the chest, so Geoff wouldn’t sing a chest B1 and then activate a sub B0, he would instead use a second subharmonic from a subharmonic F1 (ish) to drop to the B0.

    • @upsidedownpyramid7617
      @upsidedownpyramid7617 Рік тому

      I originally was too tense when I did subharmonics which is how I learned to go so low with second subharmonics. I had trouble singing first subharmonics because I’d introduce too much fry and tension, automatically popping into an E1 or lower. I can sing down to an E1 in first subharmonic, an A0 in second, and down to like F0 with growl, probably even lower with fry and inhale, but I really care most about having a good full resonant first and second octave.

    From what I'm hearing, the lowest note in the song is at the 3:52 when he says "step aside", and it's a D#1 it's shaking my house. Geoff drops 38.89 Hz like it's some mundane task.

    As much as I love and respect Geoff (I've been adding reactions to his cover of 16 tons to a playlist since it premiered), nothing that I've seen on YT has touched me like what you said about Peter. It was, to me, a divine gift and I will be grateful for that until I die. Thank you for giving an old and grumpy man a reason to be happy and to share that happiness, that spirit of blessing, with all that are around me. Thank you, again, from me and from all who were inspired by Peter's story. Never doubt, dear Tara, how you positively affect life on earth.

    Geoff has been working on his bass range for years. He's a natural baritone but can go bass or tenor when he wants and has added in subharmonics in his covers now, though he isn't using them here. As he says, it's practice, practice, practice. He is happy at this range, can go to G1 but finds it less comfortable. A better example of his range can be heard in Blackbird.

    As a bass (B0-B4), I’ll answer your question at 3:04… The lower notes do take a lot more air and breath control, and the vocal folds dry out fast so I keep water handy, but it’s not nearly as much “work” as singing up in falsetto.

    Hi Tara. You have to hear, The Bass Gang singing Hooked on the Feeling. The lead singer sounds a lot like Geoff Castelluci. The guy with the light Grey shirt is Peter. He's not only a bass singer he's also an Opra singer, and as you a youtuber reaction to music. He's in love with Sohyang and Morrisette. Morrisette is singing with David Foster.

    There are some others out there that don't get so easily recognized but are equally amazing.
    Jeff Chapman is the bass singer for the Kingdom Heirs, a southern gospel quartet that performs daily at Dollywood.
    Check out his you tube demo called Jeff Chapman vocal range. It starts off with him singing normal bass lines but watch to the end and hear him in live concert
    sing C#1 .
    Tim Riley is another that you are sure to enjoy

    That was really cool he does it with ease as well Tara i need to tell you that Dimash released a short music video that is epic!!!!!! it is called The story of one sky. He wrote it directed the video an acts in it> the level of quality in his videography and his vocals is unmatched at this point I always thought he was really great and he is.This is another level who would have thought with dimash that he would take us to another place like this. The story is dark the story is intense and on some levels risky in his young career he is taking the ultimate stand for peace on the planet where a lot of artists simply won't go there with this intensity but it is a brutally honest look on how we behave and this plea to have a shift of consciousness where are we will no longer feel disconnected from each other from our Humanity so that peace compassion empathy forgiveness well be the beacon of light that we can look up to and spread all that is good

    Hi Tara, love your content. Been silently following for years. - kinda missed your personality / analysis /summary shinning through before and after the reaction.
    Whilst I get it's a way to reduce drag (and get straight to the point), some of us (or is it just me?) don't only subscribe for the straightforward reactions, but think you exude great energy as a compliment to the reactions. It's the little things..the intro, emotions, segues, course material, zooming into coach mode, summary etc that make it pleasant to casually sit through.
    Just a thought. Don't need to change what you feel you want to do cos of just me. I'm just one subscriber. Great content as always. Still the best vocal coach on UA-cam.

    I’ve watched this before, and believe I may…MAY…have an answer on working the lower notes. Instead of tightening/stretching the vocal cords for the higher notes, the exercise is based on being able to keep the vocal cords relaxed while singing. I can’t hit the E1 subharmonics he can (my range stops at G1), but there are times when I can use a “growl” to hit F1. I had training in college way back when, along with theater work. What Geoff does…is truly amazing
