Geoff is a gateway drug to VoicePlay. You get lured in due to his obvious vocal insanity. Eventually you realize that every single member is a monster in their own right. Their second tenor can fill in the bass line, if Geoff is soloing. The beatboxer (who also did the arrangement for Oogie Boogie's Song, btw) has a range nearly identical to Geoff's- even greater if you count the notes he can produce using inhaled phonation. And you've picked a good time to get on board this crazy train; lately their arrangements keep getting almost exponentially better, and damned if their vocal capabilities don't keep making them look easy. On their most recent release (My Mother Told Me), I've already watched several reactors hit the end of the video and just pitch their headphones aside while shaking their heads, stunned utterly speechless. Oogie Boogie's Song waits until the end to spring its trap; My Mother Told Me destroys you about 30 seconds in. After that, there's nothing else to do but hold on for dear life.
This is it. This is exactly how it is. You get in for Geoff, then discover that he's not alone in the insanity of voice, and you stay for all of them. Also, agreed completely on My Mother Told Me. It gets you after thirty seconds, and just sweeps you away. Maybe that should be her next reaction!
OMG TRUEE i saw Little Mermaid Melody and it was the first video I ever heard of them then went into Oogie Boogie Song and Geoff has pulled me in and I cant stop listening to voice play. I listen to them and only them right now lol
Concuerdo Totalmente Contigo... Pero Geoff Es Tipo Muy Humilde y Genial al mismo tiempo, el Tiene Ese Rango Vocal Super Amplio porque se ha dedicado bastante... igual con la banda Voiceplay Todos Son Geniales
VoicePlay and Geoff Castelucci should come with a warning label. Layne, their beatboxer, makes phenomenal sounds and effects plus he can sing, too. Earl, the high tenor crazy cartoon voice has just an amazing voice. Eli (ell eee) has unbelievable range and power. J.None has such a silky smooth baritone with gorgeous high notes.
In a tutorial for low tones, Geoff says he learned the growl techniques from Tim Foust. He does several with just him singing all parts using production balancing. His releases of "Headless Horseman", "Blackbird", "16 tons", and a great one with all the group and Rachel Potter is "Moana".
yes Geoff(pronounce like Jeff) Castellucci is fantastic, go on with Voice Play there is a lot. There is another fantastic bass is Tim Foust from Home Free you should react to them.Stay safe
Great reaction! Welcome to Voiceplay 😆 I'd definitely suggest checking out their latest, "My Mother Told Me" - Geoff definitely shines in that one. I'd also suggest Queen in 5 Minutes - you get to hear Geoff, but also more of the rest of group.
Have to see geoff doing sixteen tons solo. And another voiceplay fun videos is "this is halloween " , also the grinch is fun. Also little mermaid medium.
If you hear Geoff talking in an interview you will have no doubt he is a natural bass. Their newest release just a few days ago is from the game Skyrim and has players of the game almost giddy over how well it is done.
Geoff is amazing huh! Haha. Him and Avi Kaplin the former bass from Pentatonics have learned alot form Tim Foust from Homefree. Check out some more Homefree and definitely check out Geoffs solo stuff! His solo stuff is amazing he does all the parts, harmonies and stuff himself. His last couple have been Take Me Home Country roads cover and Sixteen Tons cover. But Blackbird is one of my favs he does. Great Reaction loved it!!
Nice reaction. These guys are the fun acapella group, they always look like they are having a blast. Another really good example of Geoff Castellucci's range and musical ability is his solo cover of The Beatles, Blackbird. Multitracking and playing piano. Well done video too. Another unrelated artist that you might want to react to is Chris Klafford. He is a Swedish Idol winner and AGT contestant. Great singer and guitarist. He does these very pure, acoustic covers and originals on his channel. Either Way, In The Silence, Chill In The Air, Ocean Eyes, Imagine and Girls Just Want To Have Fun (Duet) are all fantastic.
Gabbsi, I love your reaction to this song. I've watched several reaction videos regarding this piece, and I believe you're the only person who's actually caught what Geoff did right after the line " to add a little spice ". It's so quick that I had missed it until you pointed it out. Thanks for this video, I'll definitely subscribe to your channel. Great work!
So, speaking on how geoff sounds like a baritone and can pass as a tenor: he classifies himself as a baritone with a bass range. His normal singing voice is generally higher than what you normally hear, since he sings bass in voiceplay and he's singing to his role. I've always said that among Avi, Geoff, and Tim Foust, Avi is a true bass, since his normal singing sits well within the bass classification and he has that deeper, warm tamber, where as Geoff and Tim are baritones who have access to really low bass notes. Geoff and Tim are more versatile because of their range, but Avis bass is unmatched imo.
Have you ever seen The Nightmare Before Christmas by Tim Burton? If not, that's where this song came from as well as a couple others they do. Great movie.
So it seems u like low notes...? How about Geoff´s "16 tons" then ? :D Peter Hollens and Tim Foust "Misty Mountain" would also be a nice one to see you react to :) Enjoy
hello, what do you think of dimash - across endless dimensions? , and what do you think of this couple (FLOOR JANSEN + HENK POORT) - PHANTOM OF THE OPéRA? , greetings.
I also have boosted low notes on my headphones, so its double boosted fer me here and its just making it better. But your voice is compared to the video pretty quiet, so maybe turb that up a bit. I'd also recommend putting a link to the original video in the description, because they deserve all the credit (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EbxkOntz2SA.html).
Voiceplay is amazing. You should listen to their new song "my mother told me". Other recommendations of theirs "Little mermaid melody" "Queen in 5 mins" and Boybands in 5 mins". A few to add to the list as they have many
Mostly it's Geoff, (the bass whom you already seem to know :-) ), or Layne, (the beatboxer, glowing nose in this video), who does the arrangement for their songs. This one was Layne's arrangement. Recently Eli, (the 2nd tenor, wearing red in this video) did the arrangement for a song too, "Eleanor Rigby" (a Beatles cover). I enjoyed your reaction and agree with you, they're awesome! If you like the Nightmare Before Christmas movie (where this song is from), they've done more from it: "What's this", "This is Halloween" and "Kidnap the Sandy Claws". But I really like everything they do :-).
You need to check out their newest song - My Mother Told Me. It's Voiceplay featuring a singer from Rockapella. It's another showcase of Geoff that will blow you away. It also shows off Eli (pronounced Ellie), who is the bald one. He is their tenor and has an amazing rock voice. He also does crazy good character voices - he's actually the voice of Santa in this Oogie Boogie video, but you can't even tell it's his voice. (The actor playing Santa is actually Geoff's brother in law.) They do all their own productions and everything, including the arrangements and filming. Another classic one to check out is their The Little Mermaid Medley. Geoff is a standout in that as well.
Thanks for the reaction. Although Geoff sings Bass for the group he classes himself as a baritone who can sing really low. Voiceplay's "Moana" medley, with Rachel Potter, (a great singer), is fantastic and shows off the boys versatility too.
I would love to see your reaction to Voiceplay My Mother Told Me and Homefree's Folsom Prison Blues. Geoff also does 16 tons and the Headless Horseman. All will blow your mind.
Omg! You do reactions of Little Mix and now Voice Play!! Both my top favourites!!🌸 (Of course including Bruno Mars🙈) Btw, kudos on noticing the riff Geoff does at 2:54. Very few reactors have picked up on that and you are one of them.👏🏻👏🏻
What a delightful reaction! Thank you. Catch Geoff's solo work (Sixteen Tons and Black Bird are the two I like best). He's also really great in Voice Play's Grim Grinning Ghosts.
That one was my intro to the group and I was instantly in love. Between listening to the song (iTunes doesn't have the video), watching the video and the reactions on RU-vid, I'm well over 200 plays. And that's a week at the most. Geoff's bass gives me goose bumps every time, too. He and the group should be labeled a gift from the gods!
Please do "My mother told me" by voiceplay if you feel ready for it. Geoff will sweep you clean. If you are afraid you can't take it on one go, then do "sixteen tons" (him alone) first, so you're warmed up.
Geoff hit low note in the subharmonic range of E1. Geoff on his own channel explains how to hit low bass notes especially subharmonics without damaging vocal chords.
Geoff Castellucci and Tim Foust are the two best low grade singers I have seen in recent times. I highly recommend you react to their music. If you want I can recommend the ones I find most impressive.
Up until recently, this was my favorite piece by them. Recently, however, they released My Mother Told Me and it is even better! On a side note, your volume levels for your voice were very low compared to the music, this made it very hard to hear you when you were speaking.
@@ruhjiiidnoo8319 My bad! I'm still pretty new to the American octave system 😅 I'm pretty sure Geoff's recorded range ends at D1 though, I've watched quite a few vocal range videos of him. Not to say he can't get lower of course!
@@alviinamaliniemi9245 no problem . many people consider that the vocal fry is not a note, many singers use it as a resource, but geoff use it to give an exact frequency that is a note .
I think Geoff taught Avi how to sing low notes, maybe, I can't remember. Now I see more Voiceplay in the future. Also Geoff has is own channel he sings and layers his voice over his other vocals.
Check out Geoff singing Sixteen Tons.....Both AVI and Geoff have learned some things from Tim Foust of Home Free...they are all friends. My only issue...is sometimes Geoff uses the bass more of a gimmick...but when done right, like in this song...it is splendid.....Sixteen Tons is amazing as well.
Geof is the god of vocal basse and he is amazing vocal actor. You should see " The Little Mermeid Medley" by Voiceplay... Geof as Ursula is insane ..and blue. All singers in this group are great but Geof is my favorite. In " My mother told me" he is using something like mongolian overtune singing, it make that my chills have chills. I've just subscribed your channel so :" please don't fail me now"..☺️👍. By the way: you also should listen to " The drug in me is you- reimagined " Falling in Reverse. I guarantee that you will cry ..Best wishes to you.
You’re one of my fave reactors! You have such an expressive face and always notice big and little moments of the music. Thanks for starting my day out with a smile! 😁
Geoff, Tim and Avi are amazing to watch and hear. These three have enough content to last till Armageddon, not the movie. There aren't enough bass vocalists in the wild to be biased. I'm super biased towards female sopranos in terms of what i find innately impressive. Bass on this level are shockingly rare. So rare that the majority of the bass aren't true bass but they get the job done but can't do vocal acrobatic in that register. True bass slap the 1st octave around like it's a joke.
If you love Geoff Castelluci please - ... please ... react to Colm McGuinness. He's a relatively small and recent youtube singer who really deserves his big break. Please show him some love. My recommendations, Hoist the Colors or the Rains of Castamere. His voice is so beautiful. You'll fall in love with him.
The fun part is that is not even the lowest Geoff can get. Geoff and Tim have to limit what they do on studio recordings to not have to replace damaged expensive equipment so to hear them go all out you have to go to a live show. There are a few videos of Tim damaging speakers during live shows if you look around but even those videos you don't get the full effect as the phones used to record them can't get all the bass they can put out.
