I love the phone recordings just because I can hear the naysayers going “well $#£t…he can sing that deep no matter WHERE he is!!!😂😂😂❤🙌🏻 That’s our boy!!! YEP!!😊
...And the phone recording has an OBVIOUS lower quality, especially on the super low notes. I'd be super happy to make such comparison with a home LIVE recording with a nice mic (we know he has it). 🙂 OF COURSE there are differences (production makes sense, otherwise one could record with just a phone and get those super-results exactly the same... Puh-leeze), and those low sub-harmonics usually require the singer to be very close to the mic to be recorded with a decent result. TO ME, these phone recording are all the more impressive as I now their limitations. 🙂 Thank you, Huldra, one more interesting video. 🙂
Agreed. The fact he sounds THAT good just on a phone recording, just shows how good his voice actually is. (which is no surprise, you can't be mediocre as an a cappella singer, lol)
I'm pretty sure the pure voice is the foundation needed to create the studio production result. The pure voice is amazingly beautiful, rich and warm. The music video is an amazingly beautiful, creative and rich result of great producing skills and that wonderful voice. ❤ Huldra, you are awesome! Thank you for creating these vids. I hope you are still getting some sleep along the way, sweety! Love from 🇳🇱
Very true, you need a good solid foundation of a voice to work with, and then just tweak a little for the best result! Thanks, Marieke! Getting a few hours every night thanks to Geoff's narrations, so am doing good!
He's breathtaking without singing a note, too. And not just because he's so handsome. His spirit, his passion, his niceness, his devotion to his friends and family...he's a fantastic person, a great role model for people to look up to! I know that would embarrass him...but that's part of his charm too! 💙
@@MorningRose370 I'm sorry! I'm a bit jaded too, and have been there. When Earl up and left without so much as a note to his fans, not gonna lie, I know he didn't owe us anything, but as silly as it may sound, I was a bit hurt. That's probably selfish and unreasonable, but it's how I felt. I was worried, too. But I have faith in Geoff, and Voiceplay. Their passion and love for each other and their fans is immense. They're like family to each other. Sometimes family hurts you, but it usually doesn't mean they don't care. We all have bad moments and choices. But you know what? VP's and Geoff's music helps me through a lot of rough patches. So hang in there! You have support from the Voiceplaya and Castellunatics gangs!💙
@@DravenGal I only discovered them a few months ago but I know what you mean. Their music has gotten me through some rough patches too. And I will say this community is one of the best I've ever seen, online or otherwise.
He was born as a voice. He does unique work with his meticulousness in his work, musical knowledge and diligence. And very humble. We appreciate his talent. He is a unique musician and we love him.🤗🙏♥️
well, he definitely sounds quieter and not as "robust," for lack of a better word. but he still has the low notes and is still a true bass and my favorite bass
that's true for many artists. some sound better live, some sound better on recordings. we get the polished version in the recordings because most people nowadays are used to the polished pop radio sound. but just because it IS polished, doesn't mean he can't sound amazing live as well, which many people seem to not understand 😄 you don't make a living singing a cappella live, without sounding really good live 😄
I for one don't watch a live performance and expect an artist to sound exactly as on a recording, because of course there is going to be a bit of a difference, since with a music video you have to option of polishing things off and adding effects. That being said Geoff is on of the (few) artist that sounds amazing no matter whether it's recorded or live ❤
very true, it's not the same. which is why people love going to concerts, because it doesn't sound the same! otherwise you could just play the music at home. and yeah, Geoff sounds just as amazing live as he does in his videos! different, but amazing just the same!
I actually feel his vibrato sounds much better IRL. There is obvious post-production pitch correction on the recorded version, which is a vibrato killer. However, it's the standard with nearly 100% of producers today.
@@johndeeregreen4592 lucky! really wish I had been able to catch one of their shows before the pandemic! but at least I got to see them live for a few songs with Chicago. they sounded amazing 🥰🥰
That's reassuring, I always thought my subharmonics were super quiet but it seems they just need to be amplified no matter what! Just need to work on the clarity now!
Geoff's subharmonics are a lot louder now than they used to be when he started out, and still he lets the mic do the work for him to amplify them. Subs will never be loud. The focus has to be on making them sound good and clean, and then let the mic do the rest!
There is layering, compression, and a slight reverb on the recorded version, which is going to add thickness. He has a lot of resonance, anyway; add in the studio tricks and that resonance becomes God tier.
@@hameedelbasyouni4266, close to 35 years experience singing as an operatic and choral bass, and I have never encountered anyone like him. He's definitely a one in a billion voice.
