Geoff earned himself the highly coveted "Double Pit Viper" status with this one (don't worry, you'll understand what that means soon enough) 🙌 This was such a blast to react to -- huge shoutout to Geoff for this AMAZING arrangement, production, and performance. See you guys next time!
In an interview with the charismatic voice, everything in this, 16 tons and the recent voiceplay my mother told me was all chest voice. no subharmonics, that last note was only a growled effect
That final G1 was definitely unique for Geoff. It sounded like a growl, chest, and fry note coming together. He was flexing his ability to do a G1 using different techniques throughout, without a doubt. F1 to B1 is a sweet-spot in Geoff's range, where he can do a ton of different techniques with it.
This was such a great reaction man 🔥 And I agree, the best part of Geoff's work are his arrangement!! Thanks so much for considering me even close to that level 😍
I believe it was. I sounds like it was meant to suit the scene when it goes from inside Baggins' house to above the chimney to the wind.blowing the smoke into the night sky. That breathy G1 perfectly captures that scene.
I think I have been watching reviews for Geoff, Tim and Avi for years now and this is the first time I have seen a trained bass singer do one a review. Loved all breakdowns of the techniques
I liked Tim and Peter’s better but there were some things Geoff did that was better. Tim seemed more natural where at times Geoff seemed like he was adding a bit too much. I think I like Geoff’s upper bass/baritone better. Smooth as butter.
You want to see his whole range from deep bass to tenor? Watch him as the lead singer in Voiceplay's Oogie Boogie Song. Mind blowing, and almost inhuman range. BTW, the Peter Hollens, Tim Foust (Home Free) collaboration on this song is great. Between the contrasting high tenor of Peter and low Bass of Tim, it makes the song almost ethereal, and Tim goes a bit lower than Geoff on the final note.
Thats a belted B4 in oogie boogies song. Thats just full tenor. A clean B4 in chest voice is impressive for any tenor let alone a BASS that can sing a low fucking F in chest voice as well.
@@lurecyyy I was referring to tim being the master of growl, I never insinuated that geoff had actually used growl, but that the style and texture of the note was very reminiscent of Tims.
I definitely agree that the middle G sounds better. However, the sheer length of the final one is stunning in it's own right. Like, it just keeps going...
I love this rendition so much! I think the final G is more symbolic as well... When I heard it initially I thought it was breathy but was done on purpose to represent the dragon's breath of flames.
Geoff's is my fav version of the song. It's like he transports you into his performance, and his voice takes you for an unforgettable trip! I'm really glad you liked it so much. Thanks for this reaction! Looking forward to more of your reactions, and from the Bass Gang with Tomi, Bobby and Marwan! 💖
not only was this a great reaction, it was an even better breakdown of the techniques and arrangement. You're very good at this, Peter. Can't wait for the next one.
I am really enjoying that you actually dropped into bass as you listened. This is the difference between a singing teacher reacting and a bass singer reacting. The first second of your reaction is almost in tune.
I really love this song... I'm serious... All Tolkien writing and stories. The Geof gaves me a lot of new reasons to read the books again. Btw... Love the respect you guys have for each other
I love your reaction to this. You offer those of us who doesn't know the first thing about notes or other technical things. Just what we love & i am a sucker for a good bass, passed on by my Momma whose favorites were Thurl Ravenscroft, JD Sumner & Harold Reid. I know she would have loved to hear today's bass men.
You know what I think? Geoff, despite his amazing musical talents, is at heart a storyteller. In a past life or something he was that wise old chief that had the oral traditions of his people, and his love of storytellilng made it into this life or something. You, son, are a talented analyst btw! You really dissect this stuff and dress it out, I mean it. You were picking out things that I missed, and I've seen this video a couple times already... 🤔 Srsly, this wasn't a 'reaction video'-this was a musical analysis and commentary by a well-trained, professional singer. If your parents/guardians/mentors aren't proud as hell of you...smack them for me! Noice work, young man! Pit vipers lol! 😎😆😁
If you watched VoicePlay's My Mother Told Me you realize that Geoff retasked several of the wardrobe pieces in this video. He uses the same studio (owned by Layne Stein) as VoicePlay. In fact, the coat with the embroidery on the arm and faux fur trim on left-most Geoff was worn by Layne as was the ringed leather jerkin by second lighter haired Geoff. The gray faux fur thrown over the shoulder of the third Geoff was part of Geoff's costume. Also reused from other videos. VoicePlay does that a lot. That said, I thought the production values here were very high.
Watched the original video and this reaction video was a recommendation under it and omg, you had me laughing so hard. Thank you YT and Peter, I needed that.
Last one is a chest G1. This isnt the first time he does two different approaches ( of modal)for the same. notes. The G#1's in Kiss and Bb1 in Old Town Road of the "top 10 2019" vid are examples.
You were mentioning Geoff's ability in vocal arranging. When Home Free and the Oak Ridge Boys got together to sing Elvira, Geoff arranged the song that went in the video.
Oh I love your reaction. Fabulous, best I"ve seen. Most like his work, though I have seen one who dislikes his arrangements, but it's good to hear another bass singer give his take, from an educated perspective. Super happy to meet someone else who thinks he's the best. :)
Geoff is the man. I'm glad that you can appretiate his voice as a fellow bass singer. That last note just completely floored me. I've never heard anything like that in my life.
You point out things that I have not heard in other reactions. Thank you. I hope you will continue with reactions as well as with singing. (Loved the 4 group songs). Thanks for sharing the knowledge.
Good Job, Peter! I enjoyed your analysis. Take on any Geoffs you come across, be they singles or groups. I love them all, and your insights add so much. Thanks.
Random recommendation from the algorithm, to my great joy. As a bass, it’s a treat to listen to another bass analyze Geoff from an educated bass vocalist perspective.
This was a great reaction, thanks for sharing. Lots of interesting insights and points, and I couldn't agree more that the arrangement is insane! His singing is amazing, for sure, but his arrangements add just as much they're so incredible.
Been watching you for a month or so now. Kinda cool seeing one of your first analysis videos where you made some decisions early on that you're still doing.. like the pit vipers. One thing that definitely separates you from the rest is your knowledge and singing ability. It's great to hear your insight and attempts to match the notes. One thing that few reactors, including "vocal coaches" do is show their singing ability and explain things from a technical point of view
I really like his solo stuff where he harmonizes with himself and has several iterations of himself in the video so he looks like triplets or quadruplets.
Damn. I decided to re-watch your reaction to If I Were A Rich Man/Girl, and got pulled down the rabbit hole when this showed up in the feed. Your reactions are so good!
The placement of the g1 growl at the end was perfect for an ending note. It would not be geoff's style to hit a growl note in the middle of an arrangement, it just hits harder and has too much impact to just carry into another verse. On the flipside, the g1 chest would not work as well at the end of an arrangement (as far as impact goes) compared to the growl, but in the middle, or used transitionally, it is a perfect choice where a growl would have not worked as well. I would agree with your sentiment that geoff's arrangements are probably his best asset, and imo, it really shows in his choice of dynamic placement for his low notes, specifically how he carries them at certain points in his songs.
I just started listening to reaction videos and I definitely find yours more informative. Wish there was a way to have personal lessons from you via internet. I feel I could learn so much. ❤
That 1st Gold was total pimp.. never watched this channel before, glad came across it. Loved this from the movie, didn't think people were out there slaying it.
@@stevenshewfelt888 Dude. I saw VoicePlay live. They started with "Elvira", and when he dropped down for the bass notes in the refrain, I think every female in that place forgot how to breathe. Quite a few of the guys too.
That was singing? That wasn't singing... That was.... That was....a sound that was doing other things that I will not speak of here. Omg. *What does Geoff sound like when he talks? I'm looking this up* Don't tell my husband y'all. 😶
I really enjoy that you're not afraid to point out where you think there's room for improvement. Many others reacting to Geoff's stuff mostly only praises him, which gets repetitive and less informative in my opinion.
I really enjoyed your analysis and hearing your thoughts about all the different parts of the song. I'd definitely like to watch more reaction/analysis videos from you, maybe about other Voiceplay or Home Free music like Voiceplay's Oogie Boogie Song, Home Free's Folsom Prison Blues and so on.
The best note I've heard Jeff do was with Voice play doing white Christmas one of their earlier videos videos his final note is like a solo no and it is solo I felt it in the pit of my stomach such a good randation too and you can tell they had fun
Haha dude you should snip our the “yeah this was really good” @5:34 and make it into a sound bite to add to sections of videos you approve of - like a sound meme 😂. It was clean and professional as f$@k!! 👍🏻
Hey Peter! Love your channel and your analysis. (Not to mention your music) I was curious if you've ever heard Voctave? You mentioned that Geoff's arrangements for acapella music are one of your favorites. Voctave is another group whose arranger is a musical genius! Hope you have a great day.

You deserve it my man 👏
Hey Tomi :D
He’s right you do deserve it
I just assumed the last G1 was meant to be “messier” in order to imply the sinister aspect of the impending journey.
Personally I thought it was just Geoff flexing
It’s called dragons breath. It’s just like his other low notes he just lets a lot of air out.
I saw a little smoke come out of his mouth when he held that at the end😮
@@epsilon4052 I love how after they did dragon born all of us fans have just decided he is the dragon born and that’s why is bass is the best

Idk how, but his voice melts like butter in your ears 😭🤌
Bro it's making my brain vibrate
You were right the first time. That last G1 was breathy chest. Cool timbre
I've always heard this as a very controlled and pronounced growl as opposed to chest. I've listened to it far too many times...
@@wh15p nah it is chest it's too smooth to be a growl
@@Baerno with what
Yeah definitely chest. Different timbre to growl
Mr Castellucci has confirmed that it is indeed full voice 👍 and I'm happy to stand corrected.
Misty Mountains Cold by Peter Hollens and Tim Foust is a must watch, you wont be disappointed 👍🍻
I dunno man, i like peter and tim, but their version didnt do much for me, geoffs is the best ive ever heard.
I liked Tim and Peter’s better but there were some things Geoff did that was better. Tim seemed more natural where at times Geoff seemed like he was adding a bit too much. I think I like Geoff’s upper bass/baritone better. Smooth as butter.
Peter Hollen ruins the song. Doesn't fit the mood, style and origin of the song.

@@quinism1136 the B4 in Oogie Boogies song is likely mixed, not chest. Still *really* impressive
Yes, do a reaction to Oogie Boogie's Song!
Absolutely amazing
I think the ending note was a shoutout to Tim in his and peter hollens version.
It was indeed especially since Tim taught Geoff how to do it. Even Geoff says tim is the true master of bass
@@kcasey1220 you notice the differences when you watch them live.

Love that bass shake at 14:41 😂 hyped to see more of your reactions my dude 👊
I like how he can make the same G1 note sound like different bass octives its so cool
That last one felt like an homage to Tim’s growl at the end of his cover with Peter. But the middle one knocked my socks off
I've listened to this piece 3-4 times now, and Every. Single. Time. He has gotten me to rewind to hear that "lurk".
its nice to see a bass react as they can appreciate how difficult it is because they sing it
I think my jaw was open about 50% of the time, with chills going up and down my spine the whole time🥰🥰
Oh, wow. You might be one of my favorite reactors now :)
Great break down of all the things going on in this cover. I really enjoyed it!
He adds a lot of soul to his music. Even his growls are harmonically appropriate.
I like how the speakers actually shakes the camera, producing a shake effect to the video.
I really love this song... I'm serious... All Tolkien writing and stories.
The Geof gaves me a lot of new reasons to read the books again.
Btw... Love the respect you guys have for each other
He goes even deeper in his "sixteen tons" and "the headless horseman" I reccomend checking it out
I think this song is mesmerizing. Literally sends me into a trance.

Agree with your comment. He is obviously an incredible bass singer, but arranging his own music makes it all more impressive!
It is a growl and call to arms, it's own rights. Both G's are legendary.
Why am I just getting the notification now?! Also the low note at 9:30 is a D1 Sub.

Peter Barber, Geoff Castelucci uses more of high high range in the song blackbird. He has more octaves than I expected.
I seem to remember that he claims five. Also...sit down for this...he says he considers himself a baritone with a good range...not a "real" bass.
I would love to see Peter's analysis of Blackbird.
Really enjoy your Geoff reactions. Great stuff!
I think the final note he added more breath intentionally to end on that real Tolkien feel to it

Also incredible breakdown,better than most"vocal coaches"
