It's really interesting, getting a beatboxer's perspective on this group! Layne is such an interesting vocal percussionist, and while there is an abundance of folks out there who can discuss vocal technique, composition, etc, there are far fewer who can intelligently speak about wha Layne is doing. I'm really enjoying your breakdowns, as much for your enjoyment of the music as the knowledge you can share while explaining some of the sounds we're hearing. Speaking of, there is an absolutely crazy sound that Layne makes in VoicePlay's cover of Aerosmith's "Dream On". I don't think anyone knows how he produced it, and the only 'clue' we really have about it is that he says the face he makes in the video while performing that sound isn't how he makes it (apparently he has to make a pretty crazy face to get the sound out, and he didn't think it would look great for the video). The best way I can think of to describe that sound is like a spider tapdancing across your brain, or something skittering down a long, empty hallway. It's mad.
I second that comment 😁
Actually, Layne once discussed that sound with patrons and taught us how to make it. I can make the sound, but haven’t been able to make it change pitch. (There is a TH-cam video of someone making almost the same sound. He’s the one that made the sound for Predator.)
@Wildecat10 I had no idea! I wonder if that is in my Patreon tier, or if I just missed it. I'll have to poke around this weekend and try to find it.
Layne talks about layering his beatboxing on multiple tracks - listen to the interview with him at Charismatic Voice, with Elizabeth. I suspect that Layne sees beatboxing as a tool, and the video as the art he's constructing. So "purity" in terms of how he gets there might be less important to him than the end product. I'm speculating based on various comments he's made.
He’s not the only one who may sometimes be multitracked, such as Geoff in The Oogie Boogie Song, or I believe I’ve seen someone say Eli in Eleanor Rigby. When Voiceplay finds themselves a person short and none of the other members are capable of subbing in for the unassigned part, multitracking is a reasonable alternative.
He did a recent interview with Peter Barber. Very interesting.
The one with Elizabeth was many years ago when they did "Moana Medley".
@@jackyfriedman1963 Yep, and amazingly, he covered different material. Good memory.
@@Aurora-cv5to
Yes he did. The first one he only covered the Moana Medley. It was the reason for the interview.
Peter Barber covered just about everything. From middle school to now.
You are rapidly becoming one of my favorite reactors, especially to VoicePlay! Please keep sharing your unique perspective with us!
AGREE
This is something different, with their voices used as intruments. The high voice is from Earl Elkins Jnr who was an original member of VP but left in 2020 for personal reasons. Geoff (Jeff) has made videos explaining how to sing low, or very low. Eli is known by the guys as the rock god, he used to sing with rock bands, in Japan I believe (not said Eel-eye, say it as Ellie.) His name is short for Eliezer.
Voices are instruments.
The conceit of the video is that the VoicePlay members are MIDI instruments, and he's plugged cables into them so he can control their voices with the keyboard/pad/etc. What _actually_ happened of course is that they recorded parts and sent them to him and he used those recorded parts to create the audio track, and then the video was filmed after that, as one does.
I can definitely say watching this makes me want to binge this song over and I over again. A pretty solid reaction. I’m hoping that you’ll find what you like when listening to these guys. Just in the year that I’ve been listening to them, they’ve helped me be a better person. I have gained a lot of courage to do hard things. I think if they can do it so can I.
20 plus years of music. I read 1997. And they are still experimenting. Still innovative. Looking forward to more with you
This is on Kurt’s channel so is not typical VoicePlay but I still really enjoy it. They have plenty of more theatrical pieces if that’s your jam 😅
That is my jam! I hope to get into it soon
@@KlownMusicReacts I know you will enjoy them all, that’s for sure.
If you want to hear Geoff beatboxing then please do a reaction to Voice Play ( but only Geoff & Earl sing ) the title of the song is Death Of A Bachelor. Geoff taught Layne how to beatbox.
If you want to hear Layne going a little crazy, check out their latest "Sleeping in The Cold Below." It's just SO good! And thanks for another great reaction! 💙
Also on Imagine Dragon's "Enemy" and White Stripes "Seven Nation Army"!
@@hwyla4416 It's a long list, for sure! And "Carry On My Wayward Son!" I always have to remind myself it's not actual drums, it's Layne, the human synthesizer, in that one! But "Sleeping in The Cold Below" has some truly unique moments, so it's currently my fave, beatbox-wise.💙
My understanding for the was VoicePlay gave Kurt their vocals and he did his "arrangement" where he added whatever synth/processing he does to their tracks.
Also, Layne has made it known that what you see him do on screen is video friendly as far as faces to go with sounds due to some of the faces being too bizarre 😅
There are a couple different ways to do subharmonics. One is created by mixing a root note one octave higher than the target note with a note that is a 5th lower, which mixes and creates a note exactly one octave lower. Given Geoff's lowest recorded subharmonic is a B0 and his lowest chest note is an F1 and F#1 is exactly an inverted 5th below B1, I am sure that is the technique he uses. That technique also results in the thickest sound, which Geoff's subs are crazy thick.
The guy with the glasses could be a rock star ✨❤❤ his voice oozes rock. Please react to more voice play / geoff castellucci 😊
This is a gem. I’m really digging the Twenty One Pilots mash up by Voice Play. 🔥
With this one out helps to remember that this is Kurt's arrangement, so not a "typical" Voiceplay piece.
And so there is a bit of sampling their voices and then 'playing' them involved. That is what Kurt does. He has a fantastic channel to explore.
However, it is not as prevalent as it might seem. Earl really does have that high 'laser beam' voice. You might want to check out their "Queen in 5 Minutes" video. Earl is the 'main' singer although all of them have leads for certain songs. Note: two of the most amazing bits in it are from Geoff and Eli. Also - probably one of their most theatrical videos as it tells a story that is not related to the songs. Although admittedly, they do that on the Panic at the Disco medleys, too. Which by the way are also amazing. When/If you do their 'Queen' video, be sure to pause to read as they introduce the 'characters' without that info as each is introduced it can be tough to figure out what the story is about.
So glad you gave Eli props. Way too often he gets overlooked or missed bc of other flashy stuff happening. .... and he is SO DAMN versatile and talented. His low range is also pretty impressive for being such a high tenor. He can sound crystal clear one second and then thr next have that rock rasp, while still having incredible vocal dexterity in his vocal runs and riffs. Im a huge Eli fan.
Geoff has is own channel with his solo work. He has some tutorials on how he does the subharmonics.
Also. This video introduced me to Twenty One Pilots. Never heard of them before. Now the original songs in this video are in my playlist on my other channel - flajack525 aka Jacky M Friedman.
Voiceplay did a video of "Ride" with just Eli, Geoff and Layne. It is fantastic. They did another twenty one pilots video but don't remember the name 😔
I often go back to binge watch older Voiceplay videos.
Layne has been a beatboxer since 2003 when Scott Porter left the group for acting.
He is continually surprising us with new sounds. His most famous is the inhale note. He first did it in their video "Enemy". He did Santa's sleigh bells in "The Chipmunk Song/Christmas Don't Be Late". The man is amazing and my favorite beatboxer.
Ummm...pretty sure he did an inhale on the very last note on "Sh-Boom", which would be even earlier. It is freaky low if it wasn't an inhale.
@@hwyla4416
Haven't listened to Sha Boom so couldn't say for sure.
I do remember it being mentioned in a chat right after Enemy. And Geoff's made him do it in a couple other chats.
@@jackyfriedman1963 Well, I could be wrong, but if so then it really IS a freaky low bass note by Layne then. I think it was an A0
Eli (rhymes with jelly) is also known as the Rock God. I'm up with you doing a lot more of VoicePlay and Geoff solos too!
The tenor one is Earl Elkins Jr. was a founding member who left the group in 2020. Eli (Ellie) short for Eliezer.
Geoff was my introduction and teacher to subharmonics. I learn how to do them through him. It's so cool to see a bass singers version and a beatboxer version of subharmonics.
Totally ready for you to do ALL the VoicePlay!!! ❤️🎶
Layne also used to be the baritone singer of the group. He became the beatboxer when their original beatboxer left. Geoff taught him the basics and Layne took it and ran with it.😊
I think (based on Layne's interview with Peter Barber) that Geoff 'taught' him well before Scott left them. In the interview, he spoke about beginning to beatbox in high school. Hence it is less surprising that he decided to become the beatboxer and let VoicePlay find a new baritone.
I'm so happy your first VP video came up in my recommended videos. Hearing someone who is knowledgeable about beatboxing talk about them is fascinating. Plus, I absolutely love your reactions to everything in the songs. You get so excited, and it's really fun. I love watching reactors that actually show and tell us about what they are thinking/feeling/hearing in the moment! Excited to see what's to come with your channel!!! 😁
Definitely check out Voiceplay - Seven Nation Army - Layne really goes off in this one, and also their cover of Dream on
Can always count on you for a pick-me-up. Thanks for another fun (and informative) reaction! 👏
I think Layne, the beatboxer, multitracks himself in many of their songs. But he’s great nonetheless!!
It's interesting to see from this Perspective when another professional Judges the other. You can see even more how good they are!! Next!...🤩👏👏👍
I always forget about this one...and its SO COOL
You need their Seven Nation Army in your life. Also check out some of their Disney stuff, We Don't Talk About Bruno and Moana Medley, they are great.
truly amazing ❤
Love your unique input, thanks
Geoff has a tutorial on how to do the sub harmonics
Subharmonic epic bass 😮❤ I had Goosebumps!
