Geoff Castellucci Reaction | Misty Mountains Cold 

Hey everyone, Im so happy you liked the video. I would love your support. I'm linking every video to our new project, Meet the Band and Guys (WE NEED A BAND NAME!!!) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nRDVVt3Tquc.html

Geoff just released a sequel to this, a cover of I See Fire, where all the dwarves get a solo, and it is amazing. Other songs that really show his range are Blackbird and High & Dry. BTW his name is pronounced cas-tel-oo-chi it is Italian.

We are all so lucky to be able to watch and listen to Geoff produce music like this. He's a genius arranger, able to divine the heart of a song, pay respect to the original, and give it his own twist all in one stunning arrangement. His understanding of direction and videography is also shockingly good considering he does most of it on his own. And his performance is inimitable, with that ridiculously large range and unmistakable warm, round timbre. It blows my mind a bit that someone who is that impressive on so many levels is still largely unknown outside of RU-vid.

Voiceplay toured worldwide before Covid shut everything down. Voiceplay increased their studio work and have become masters. Geoff started doing solo work when they shut down, so his catalogue is not nearly as extensive but is all brilliant. A friend sent me a link to his cover of 16 Tons, which led me to Voiceplay and I have been hooked ever since. Calming - Shenandoah Funny - Way Down Romantic - Till Then Amazing - Sound of Silence Knocks your sox off - I See Fire Pick anything that strikes your fancy, he will not disappoint.

This was the very first I saw of Geoff and through him I discovered VoicePlay. A point of no return...

You should take a look/listen to his cover of Ain't No Sunshine. It's extreme, but it's also very "normal" in appearance - yet absolutely detail perfect. I wonder if the reason it seems authentic is that he does all of his own arrangements, and won't do a song if he doesn't think he can bring something new to it. So it's always very personalized artistically... he doesn't just toss things off, he has to love the song to put in that much work.

Geoff gets you like this.. yeah... This is a worthy wormhole to get into. Enjoy!

This is one of his earliest videos, Geoff gets a whole lot better with production quality and sound! Love your content thank you

Geoff '808' Castellucci

Layne does a lot of Geoff’s cinematography and Eli does the lighting. Kathy (Geoff’s wife) is production manager for VP and Geoff

My faves of Geoff, are "Blackbird" and "Sixteen Tons". Similar, but not the same.

Don't worry. Geoff makes most everyone lose words.

Thank you 😊. I loved your reaction. This was the first Geoff or VP I ever watched and was blown away!

Thank you for your comments ... love Geoff and VoicePlay!

Geoff's "solo" stuff is amazing, my favourite of his arrangements is still "God rest ye merry gentlemen"

7:00 harmony? Falsetto? Gotta love the power of Music ❤🖤💛

The term 'Geoffquake' has been a thing for a while. :)

I understand the name Castellucci to be Italian but yes it's pronounced as Casteloochi. It Italian the cc becomes ch. Geoff likes to write four or five part harmonies in his arrangements so, as he can sing all the parts, he does it. For one thing it's cheaper that way :) And he sounds good at every level. It's even more obvious in his latest, I See Fire. He really is special. Actually he covers many genres, and he is brilliant in any of them. And yes he writes arrangements that touch your soul. It's a gift. Nice reaction. In ViucePlay videos when Layne does the arrangement he pushes Geoff to go every lower, or for longer, because he's like that. :)

Geoff has a 5 octave range. See his cover of Sound of Silence.

Speaking of the set he's using, you will see it in a VoicePlay video as well ("Dragonborn Comes") as well as another Geoff video (which you might want to watch come Halloween "Monster Mash"). It is a set from PattyCake Productions for their 'Villains' Lair' series. PattyCake is co-owned by Layne Stein (VPs beatboxer) and Tony Wakim (once VPs baritone, but he preferred being behind the camera, sometimes directs them, sometimes costumes them.) And I will echo others in suggesting you really MUST do Geoff's cover of "I See Fire" with these same 'dwarves'. It is beautifully done and also quite moving. Pretty much everything on his channel is wonderful, but my fave is still "16 Tons". Even though many other songs are spectacular.

Welcome to the Geoff rabbit-hole 😊

And this is earlier Geoff! For a good example of his range, you can't do better than to watch Ain't No Sunshine. Unlike with Voiceplay, solo Geoff uses instruments.

I really enjoyed yr reaction. New subscriber from California USA. Thank you.

I would LOVE to see Vivi's reaction to this. Make sure she uses the bathroom first, and have plenty of water on hand for the reaction because I am sure she will be thirsty afterward. :D

you would love his cover of ghost riders.

And you thought Voiceplay had a rabbit hole!

Well, I've never heard the name Castellucci pronounced before. This is funny 🤣

You have to see his version of Monster Mash. Your reaction was great.

I heard this song in 2015 in Hobbit movie , love this song from india . In this song there is hidden eastern music thats why i love this song , I want to from you to take reaction on indian and pakistani music ,you really enjoyed that song . One song is 'afreen afreen' pleasee check out this

Geoff's last name is of Italian decent 🙂

LOL it's not spanish and it's CAST EL OOCHEE.

Is primal the word you were looking for at the end there??

Geoff may have had a bit of help on lighting and green screen work from Eli of Voiceplay.

SPANISH?? I understood the name Geoff was a Germain spelling, and the name Castellucci was Italian. I gotta check this out more. Anyway, this is an old video. You ain't seen nothing yet. 😁

This is "Hi Ren" but Blink 182

Its italian not spanish dude I m italian and many american are confuse between italian and spanish ☹️☹️☹️

The Hobbit soundtrack?

If you like this you have to do I See Fire from the Hobbit. You will lose your mind.

Feel free to correct google... 🤨

Italiano.

Another one sucked down the rabbit hole.

I might be talking crazy here but what is with the lighting? Looks like his elbow is straight shattered lol
