As with Voiceplay, Geoff does most of the work himself. The final edit goes to Ed Boyer, the same as Voiceplay, Home Free and most acapella groups. (Ed is just the best for this type of music!). But except for makeup and sometimes camera work, Geoff - with the help of Kathy - does everything. (When they showed up at the former prison to shoot Folsom Prison Blues, they were asked when the rest of the crew would arrive. They had to tell them they were the crew!)
I believe for this video Eli assisted with the video editing. Geoff was having problems getting the transparent effect to work. But mostly it’s just the two of them. (With a little help from their friends!)
The printed/painted background Geoff wanted to use wasn't going to arrive in time so Eli helped by creating the digital backgrounds we see. But Geoff suffered through the video editing and rendering even though his green screen skills are "average at best," he said. Daryl, with his long coat, was especially difficult and time-consuming. When Geoff got frustrated, Kathy convinced him to persevere rather than shoot the whole video again, like he did with Monster Mash the year before.
I love the different Geoffs in this one the makeup’s are fantastic ❤🏴
His Headless Horseman is another one suitable for Halloween. :) There was a time when Layne did all the mixing for both VoicePlay and Geoff but it was getting too much , with doint Parrycake productions as well, so he asked Geoff to learn to do it and take some of the weight. Read the credits, it will tell you everything. Geoff does produce all the music on his videos, using his keybaord with plugins. Both VP and Geoff send off the finished thing for a final remix. Again, read the credits. It's no mystery who does what.
Geoff put out this song in October last year - so even he considered it his Halloween song for 2022. And between the slightly blue skin tones and the blue contacts, lots of comments about White Walkers went out, as well as it simply being about a Ghost herd & riders. It kind of reminds me a bit of a western version of The Wild Hunt.
I was in high school in the ‘70s and distinctly remember this from a day long outdoor concert that included a group named The Outlaws. If I recall correctly I had gone mostly for The Almann Brothers, but I think my main aural memory of that day was an entire baseball stadium full singing a beautiful ‘Yippee Aye A” together. Geoff’s voice on that line is just perfect.
If you are looking for any more Halloween suggestions, I have two.
First, VoicePlay’s Once Upon A Dream. This is Disney, and not usually thought of as spooky. But that’s because you haven’t heard their version. Probably their first “theatrical” video.
My favorite Halloween video is Pattycake Productions Bump in the Night. (Pattycake is Layne Stein and Tony Wakim - former Voiceplay baritone). An original song they wrote and featuring many horror film villains, this was filmed during Covid and even features a ‘Thriller’ style dance break. But all with their typical attention to detail and humor.
Bump in the Night is my favorite too!
Pattycake Productions released an intricate behind the scenes video on their Patreon yesterday.
They said they hope it's the first of many of its kind
Yes. It was filmed during covid and all the dancers had to stay 6' apart during the dance scene.
Geoff does his own video editing and the initial audio edit. Same when he works on a VoicePlay video. Final edit goes to Ed Boyer, who is awesomely talented when it comes to putting final polish on a cappella tracks for groups like VoicePlay, Home Free, and many others. Geoff said it took forever to do the green screen rendering. The backdrop he wanted wasn't going to arrive in time so Eli helped create the digital backgrounds we see, and Geoff got to sharpen his green screen skills. (Which he displayed again in Jack's Lament.)
Note the attention to detail -- each gunslinger not only has a unique costume and hair design (Rick Underwood was the "beard wrangler" and makeup artist) but they're right-handed, left-handed, hip holster, shoulder holster, etc. L-R Jeff, Daryl, Geoff, Goff, and Jeoph. The ghosts are pale, and even when they sing lead like Jeoph doing the yippee-i-oh, yippee-i-ay chorus, their voices are back a bit, not as bright as lead Geoff. Y'know. Like ghosts.
I love the costuming. Two right handed hip rigs, one left-handed hip rig, and the fourth has a shoulder rig. That's a detail that many would miss in putting this together.
Yeah, they even use the correct dominant hand when they tip their hats, etc. Nice attention to detail.
Did you notice at the end Darly moved his coat so he could put his hand on his six gun like he was getting ready to throw down
I've loved this rendition! I didn't realize you didn't do this one yet! You guys are so awesome with you reactions!! Thanks for this!
Thank you, Catherine, we really appreciate it!
I love how much you guys give the love to Geoff and VoicePlay. Cheers! 🥃
you know the first time i heard this song i was a child and Gene Autry was singing it in a tv serial western that he starred in back in the day
Always fun to see you guys enjoying these videos!
For the instruments and effects he uses Native Instruments plugin.
Left to right....
Jeff, Daryl (my favorite), Geoff, Goff and Jeoph.
This is the video where Daryl got his name.
This was Geoff's Halloween video last year.
Gentlemen - If you want to hear Ghost Riders in the Sky as a SMOKIN' hot instrumental, listen to the version by Glen Campbell and Roy Clark - two of the most under-rated guitar players ever. It's only a three minute cover, but it is FIRE! Thaks for your reactions - they are lots of fun.
Thanks for the suggestion, Kathryne! Could you provide us with a link to the video so we can add it to the list please?
@@307Reacts I found it under "breautube" listed as Glen Campbell and Roy Clark play Ghost Riders in the Sky. It's also easy to find just by putting Glen Campbell and Roy Clark play Ghost Riders in the Sky in the TH-cam search box. BTW, I'm an old broad, so "provide us a link" is not really in my wheelhouse. LOL
Actually, this was one of his October releases, so it was a Spooky Season video! Just from last year, actually.
Another western film that's really good is Silverado! If you haven't seen that one, check it out. A very young Kevin Costner is in it. A ton of great actors: Kevin Kline, Jeff Goldblum, Danny Glover, Scott Glenn.
As for Geoff's version of Ghost Riders in the Sky... one of my favorites! Great reaction!
Such a great cover. Great reaction ❤
I love this song. And I LOVE Geoffs' cover! I'm from Idaho and I used to date a guy who looked just like Daryl. Lol! (The one in the long rust colored rain slicker)
Thanks, guys!
Funny you mentioned Gunsmoke. One of characters was Festus, played by Ken Curtis. Curtis sang with The Sons Of The Pioneers. SOTP sang Ghost Riders In The Sky, the version I'm most familiar with. Many have covered this song over the last 75 years, including SOTP, Burl Ives, and Johnny Cash. This song has definitely stood the test of time.
Born and raised in Wyoming. Man this hit me hard. Beautiful rendition! Brought back the essence of the west. Yippee Aye A! Thanks guys.
Ey, Wyoming brethren! Thanks for hanging out!
Home Free has Darren Rust doing the mixing. See the behind the scenes for American Pie.
He generally does all but final mix with usually goes off to a boil who does VoicePlay’s as well. He also is the artist behind the logo. A man of many talents.
This song broke me❤
"We don't need no stinking badges..." 😂
I absolutely love Geoff's version of Monster Mash. So much fun! If you want to watch a *really* good western, watch Silverado. It's a lot of fun and has some great actors in it from before they were such big A listers. Also, Clint Eastwood's Pale Rider is really good, too. Those are my two favorite.
Silverado is my favorite western. I've watched it at least a dozen times. Fantastic cast too.
This is where he introduced his newest clone named Daryl. So L to R Jeff, Daryl, Geoff, Goff, and Jeoph. Lighting Design and 3D Renders - Eli Jacobson. Makeup and beard wrangler - The magic man Rick Underwood. Audio Mixer is Ed Boyer.
You mentioned that you'd like to see a western. Tombstone came out in 1993. Kurt Russell played Wyatt Earp the famous lawman. He was born in 1848 and died in 1928 at the age of 80. Val Kilmer played Doc Holliday. It was about the infamous shootout at the OK Corral which actually happened. This is probably the best modern day western. So a good watch if you're so inclined
This is now my favorite version of this song.
Hi Matt and Chris.....great reaction fellas.... life has been busy but this song has given the appropriate amount of chills. See you around the interwebs, boys. ~ Christina Bardine
Awesome reaction!! I love this song and I love westerns as well. If you've never seen Silverado, it is a fun modern-ish western. I think it came out in the 1980's.
Yes, I will always Love Johnny Cash’s version, but this version is now my favorite
Even if the song wasn’t originally thought as a spooky song, it was Geoff’s Halloween release last year (along with some spooky narrations). And his clones are ghosts (I love the makeup!).
Geoff does the initial sound mixing, I believe to give a hint of how he wants it to sound, but then he sends it to Ed Boyer (THE mixer for acapella groups). He edits the video himself. Everything always says in the credits in the description.
I was late to the Jack’s Lament reaction, but I stayed until the end and heard this one was next and immediately skidaddled on over 🤠
I lived in Missoula Montana while they were filming Yellowstone. They did scenes at a local diner and at the courthouse there.
So many people have a song this including Bing Crosby I am Lauren Green from bonanza! Jeff has a great voice! How to spooky Halloween! Be sure to listen to thriller
Complete side note, you should see a million ways to die in the west. Absolutely hilarious western comedy from the creator of family guy.
But yes. Geoff is incredible. I'm not sure if you guys got around to this last year or not but ding dong by voiceplay is fantastic.
Ed Boyer does most of the mixing for Geoff and Voice Play. Also some Home Free and The Bass Gang.
Great reaction as always guys.
Thank you so much 🤗
there are new westerns shows. 1883 is a prequel to Yellowstone starring Tim McGraw and Faith Hill then 1923 staring Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren then 1944 which isnt out yet
VoicePlay is going to be onstage with Chicago in New Jersey Nov 17.
sensational 🤗🤗🤗🤠❤
As always. Love your reactions! Stay Blessed!
Yellowstone is the name of the ranch in Montana. The full name of the ranch is Yellowstone Dutton Ranch. Dutton is the name of the family and they just call the ranch Yellowstone. FYI
Appreciate the info!
This is such a super cool video.💗💗💗
Agreed!
loved it. as always.
Was hoping you would do this one. Really loved his version. I wish I had a studio to try some layering like that. It would be fun.
Doubt Id get that quality though.
You’d be surprised what you can get away with with todays tech! Bedroom mixes are really turning out these days!
Brilliant reaction as usual fella’s. if you want more of his Halloween stuff it would be great to see you react to his cover of headless horseman of monster mash.
Great reaction.
Thanks!
Jeff, Daryl in a duster, Geoff, Goff and Jeoph.
Geoff just announced that the new guy was Daryl.
There was lots of problems with what you called the the green screen thing. Geoff had almost given the whole project up until Eli helped him out. Not simple this time.
A cartoon Western is #Rango with Johnny Depp
Haven’t seen it yet. I keep meaning to since VoicePlay recorded the theme song. It is on their Once Upon a Dream album. (Just in case you didn’t know😊)
Have you tried any of Avi Kaplan's solo work since leaving PTX ? If not you should give it a try. He has a lot of songs/videos available and he's getting ready to release his second full length album soon. He's been working with producer Shooter Jennings (Waylon's son) on his first and upcoming second album. I've been watching a lot of reactors do Avi's music videos with no issues, so maybe you will also. If you do, I'd suggest his first and most popular song since going solo, "Change on the Rise", his official video for "I'm Only Getting Started" ( a B&W video) , and "When I'm a Fool" live at Sunset Sound (it's a jam session and it's Crazy good ! ) Oh, I almost forgot - " All Is Well - 7 Layers Sessions " is a must !
great as always guys! I believe for both Geoff's solo and his work with Voiceplay is all on him with only a little bit of help with Mixing from Ed Boyer who does a whos who of A Cappella mixing.
Great Reaction
Thank you!
I always assumed - never watched it - the TV show referred to the Yellowstone River country, which runs through Montana. Since we know no one could have a a ranch in the National Park.
I’ve heard it is hard to harmonize with yourself and not have it sound just flat - not flat musically but uninteresting.
!Silverado isn't that recent (80's ?) but it's REALLY GOOD!
I notice 2 more spooky one that you haven't done is Monster Mash and Headless Horseman.
I hope it will happen eventually but I would love to see y’all react to hi ren by ren, it is a very emotional song though
Guys you're thinking of Tombstone not Yellowstone
Best western movie to date... Silverado.
Don't @ me.
watch the remake of True Grit
I loved this reaction, but now my mind is stuck on movies that were ruined for me when I watched them years later, lol.
We should start a game of everyone listing a movie that was ruined for them like that. I'll say Escape From LA. The cgi is so, so bad. Last time I saw it all I could think was, please no. 😂
