Bass Singer VOCAL ANALYSIS - The Wellermen | Misty Mountains
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 มี.ค. 2022
- This video is dedicated to Kathi AKA "ShadoKat" who passed away this week, just days before the release of The Wellermen's "Misty Mountains" video. I exchanged many messages with her over Instagram, and she was always radiantly positive, thoughtful, and kind. Kathi was an avid fan and supporter of me, The Bass Gang, and The Wellermen. A friend of hers recently told me that just based on the audio, this version of Misty Mountains was her favorite of all time, and that she would've loved to be here to see the video. It saddened me greatly to hear of her passing. Kathi was a mega fan of Tolkien, The Hobbit, and LoTr, so I'll leave her with this quote from Gandalf, "...end? No, the journey doesn't end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take. The grey rain-curtain of this world rolls back, and all turns to silver glass, and then you see it." Rest in peace, ShadoKat.

What an absolute honor to be a part of this collaboration, and what a joy it was to go back and think more carefully about what's going on vocally. How amazing is it that you can have so many people of the same voice type with such distinctly different voices? The voice is like the auditory version of the fingerprint, having no exact copy anywhere else in the world. Please give some love to The Wellermen and all these insanely talented guys! Also, please read the top of the description for a dedication to a wonderful person that passed away this past week. Kathi aka "ShadoKat" was a mega fan of The Wellermen and The Bass Gang, and this video is dedicated to her ❤
Your dedication brought tears to my eyes. I couldn't have asked for a better tribute. Thank you so much for this and for all the joy you gave her.
You guys should collaborate more often. You all sound incredible. That jacket makes me think of pilots from back in the day because they wore leather jackets when flying both in combat and civillian services. It looks great. Wear it with pride knowing that fact, and keep it in good shape. It might be worth a lot of money, especially if you autograph it.👍❤
I love that you call it out that they are like fingerprints. Because listening to you all enough times, I can tell who is singing based just on ur voices and wouldn't need video to see who it is 😁
Remember Peter: you are a star as well. With over 42,000 subs on TH-cam, plus the Bass Gang and doing solo numbers that get attention by TH-cam reactors. That counts as a star in my book.
I don't think it was assigned to me, but I recorded for everything in my range, so I was up there on that really high bit as well! I'm actually a tenor but I have a decent baritone range and growl tones in the basement. So I was on the highest and lowest notes on this track which is fun.
Right on man! I had no idea 👏
Triple dog dare you to wear the pit viper glasses during your next bass collab!!
Dear Peter, Thank you so much for the dedication to ShadoKat. Kathi was a friend of mine for over 30 years, and she is so very much missed. She knew that I love the bass voice, and sent me some of your videos. My tastes in music are quite eclectic, but I do really love opera. This opera fan is very impressed with your voice. I hope you will continue to have a wonderful career.
Luke is a diamond in the rough. Maybe not quite rough... Just saw him on American Idol. He's got so much potential. Gah, Bobby and his breathy bass! So fabulous.
And can I add that your vibrato is LOVELY? The intervals are perfectly pleasing. Gorgeous.
One more! I don't have an edit option. This is the most fabulous arrangement of Misty Mountain I've heard! That first section with the crescendo is just gorgeous! Kay, I'm done.
As a bass addict and try-hard alto chorister, this was such an adrenaline rush. Thanks so much to the Wellermen and the Bass Gang. Please keep it coming and remember there’s no such thing as bass overload - the more, the better ❤️Would love a Buttery Smooth Bass Group of Peter, Bobby, Jo Jo and of course Avi.
I'm legit crying. I didn't know I needed this, but obviously I did.
This collaboration was so beyond epic, exactly what we all needed 🤩 it was also cool to hear about the contrasts in everyone’s voices! So interesting how much variation there is in the individual voices, but yet it’s cohesive and sounds great with everyone coming together. Thanks for another great vid! 😊
I have to assume Jojo sang that last low Ab
It's so neat to hear you break down videos that you've been in! Love it!
IWhat a great arrangement by Bobby, and I’m glad the whole Bass Gang was in on it. I was really hoping you’d do this reaction-I wanted to hear your thoughts on some of the solos, plus some insider info on how it was made, and you didn’t disappoint.
So true about Lucas-he has a voice made for opera if he has any interest at all. I was also dying to know more about JoJo (?) after hearing his short solo-what a rich, warm voice. I am going to have to go looking for more of his work. I already figured out who Jonathan Young was and checked out his channel. I’ll be listening to some of his work, too, although metal isn’t really my thing.
Interesting what you said about Colm. I’ll have to go find something where he sings in his higher register.
For me the fun part of this reaction, though, was getting to hear you sing some of it-loved that short you did as well.
By the way, if I could, I’d definitely be a patron. Just can’t afford it. (I know, $1 a month, but seriously, my budget is that tight right now-massive vet and car repair bills-and of course they all hit me AFTER I blew my budget on some long-deferred work on my home.). Best I can do for now is like, subscribe, and comment to help with the algorithm. But just so you know I’m always really happy to see a new reaction from you on a song I like.
One of Colm's Arcane covers has a higher part to it
@@nickpelloni1014 His Sound of Silence cover shows off his range as well!
i'm a bit late, but jojo sings for an a cappella group called "backtrack vocals". he has an unbelievable lower extension and a flawless bass sound, i highly recommend listening to some of their songs which feature him
Absolutely loved this version and the arrangement. Hearing so many different bases was so wonderfully satisfying.
Made you think the dwarfs from Middle Earth were really singing in the halls of Moriah.
I cannot get over how soothing this cover is omg
Speaking of Avi, hope you are planning to react to his latest release on 2 - 15 - 2022, All Is Well feat. Joy Williams. They co-wrote it in 1 day. No super lows but Joy sings it pretty deep and it has a beautiful blend.
Love to hear Peter review and analyse Avi’s lower version of Otherside from one of his livestreams which is sung acoustic from his cabin in the forest. th-cam.com/video/NTXVnWG7JNQ/w-d-xo.html
Super cool version! Very Whitacre in what you called the first crescendo section with the dissonance. Amazing!
I got chills listening to this! Well done guys!
This was absolutely fantastic. You all did an amazing job. Bass singers united. Awesomeness.
What a great arrengement and performance! I really enjoyed that. Congratulations to you all, well done!
Best bass collab ever! Love it so much 🥰😊❤️
When the whole choir comes in, I get an eargasm every dang time. It fills my ears with pure joy. It's amazing how it just completely fills every slot possible.
YAAAAYY!! Was so wanting your in depth talk about this!! Can't wait for the "May THE BASS BE With You" Videos!!
I love the behind-the-scenes information. This was an epic version. Thanks for sharing your insight.
You are just as much of a star as the others. I listen to your shorts over and over because I love the sound of your voice!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Peter, please keep up your amazing work. I absolutely love your reactions and analysis. As others have said, I learn so much from your videos.
I'm so glad to hear your analysis and insight into this song. I am also glad to finally hear some of your comments about Colm's singing. It was great to see some of my favorite youtube artists collab and bring such a great song to life.
Your commentary is always so incredibly interesting. Thank you!!! And I always thought of Bobby's voice being quite similar to Avi's.
This was such an amazing version. I made sure to watch it before watching ur reaction analysis. I had commented on the video that this was a total EARGASM. There is just soooooo much bass going on and it's not just an in ur face bass mush but it's so well done and gave me utter chills. Just so awesome
I just came across this yesterday and I cannot get enough, you have some SERIOUS talent and obvious passion, and all involved show the same, serious talent, obvious passion and just incredible brotherhood and friendship. This has been on repeat for me since the moment I found it, I so look forward to seeing more.
This was a very hauntingly beautiful arrangement. You guys did phenomenal! ❤
Wow....this was a really cool version....Thank you Peter for you very informational reaction
I have no idea about musical technique, but your description is incredibly interesting! I’m in awe of the Bass voice!! Love your channel!❤️
Hello Peter, wow! Great vocal and musical analysis. Thank you for sharing your insights.
I am very happy you pointed out some of the good stuff, I also recognized and brighten the talk with behind the scenes info now and then. Love that!
Some further remarks I would like to add:
As musician used to sing in choires I am very impressed and interested how you do such a great collaboration. I know, how difficult it is to be in sync and build clean harmonies. It still baffles me, how you manage that in such a huge group with changing leading roles. Chapeau! I bow deep to all of you!
Additionally I am glad, you mentioned the vibrato (I would call it tremolo, because it is soooo wide) by Jonathan Young. For me it destroys the feel of "Hobbit". Its a pity, because I could imagine, he can sing in a -- let's say -- simpler way worth a dwarf and his pining for his home and mountain. To me, Jonathan seems to completly having forgotten, what he is singing about and the story behind the song. To me it feels more like "boasting about what I can do" instead of staying true to the story and narration. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Have you discussed the background / story / narration of the song itself in the group? Would be interesting to know, how you discussed the interpretation before recording.
That said, for me Jonathans solo pronounces in contrast, how beautifully all the others handle that common ground. Everyone of you is a soloist on some point - singing in the lead or else singing a particular, important bass line, but nobody forges himself in the foreground. All in all its team effort (like Hobbit is). For me: That is, what a good acapella group should be like: One can identify the respective voices but it's the mutual, combined vocals that intrigues the audience. Kudos to all for that amazing achievement (except, well...).
Furthermore I totally agree on your notes to Colm. In my opinion he puts too much pressure on his vocal cords. I recognized this before in other videos of him (as you also mention). In this recording, it is very obvious. The tragedy is: This will ruin the voice. I have seen what this does in another man. He wasn't able to speak for a very long time. This creeps on you until it's too late. I very much hope, that Colm stops doing this. There are so many lads out there, that might copy him - with disastrous results.
Once again: Great analysis, Peter.
Keep it coming! 🥰
this was great, just found you from it and this was so good and the analysis is insanely good, you are great my guy
wow 🥰 absolutely love it
I agree. Definitely one of my favorite arrangements of this song.
was so excited to see Lucas audition / get a golden ticket on American Idol a few days ago. He's from my home-town & I adore his voice! This whole collab is insanely good!
very awesome arrangements!
Whoa, bassapaloosa! Here is a great mix of all the colors of bass, a bass rainbow if you will. Love it!
you burned me with the subharmonic, it was epic at the end a whole boss
I first became aware of this arrangement from your 13 second Tik Tock video, and I wanted to see the whole thing (hoping you would have been featured more)! I have to say, this one is my favorite version of this song (and I'm a Tim Foust fan.. ). I honestly thought you were singing the first piece! When I played this for my spouse we cranked the volume up, because it's a moral imperative when the depth of this sound is this amazing. :-) Would love to hear more of your singing (in addition to your operatic performances). Thank you for your detailed analysis and informative content!
I saw the message from Avi on your Instagram, congrats on getting the credit you deserve! Looking forward to joining your patron and supporting such a talented artist!
I know it's an old video, but glad you talked about that voice darkening with Colm. So many people to this day say he uses a program to get that low
It would be awesome to see some analysis of Colm's solo stuff.
Reaction starts at 3:03
This was so amazing, bothfun and indtructive. Thanks. I just wish there had been an introduction with a name to each face!
Thank you Peter! Been wondering who all the guys I did not know are. Also their distinct voices... thank YOu
The soprano overtones created by the blend of these amazing voices is haunting as hell. It's like listening to ghosts singing along.
Omg his voice is so relaxing 🤤
Loved it
You guys were awesome, and love this analysis. BTW, you're not biased because within the first verse, my thought was "wow! This is even better than Peter and Tim!!!" Bobby deserves mad props for this arrangement
As someone who studied music up until the point when I realised I didn't have the spark that differentiates being technically good vs being a musician - I really enjoy your reactions for the analysis behind the emotional impact.
Love this break down, hope i can get to the point where i can join in on something like this one day. Also why is it a little unsettling when Colm looks straight at the camera. Just such and intence gaze.
Amazing basses!
Thank you. Thats all i can say. Greetings from Poland
I like your reviews Peter, you’re able to pickup on all the features / sounds of each voice that we all wonder when watching these collaboration videos. Kudos. Ps, would you ever consider online singing lessons for male bass/baritones?
I re-watched the Hobbit a mere week ago.Got this as an advert and couldn't close it!
Well done, sir. This was absolutely amazing. You should do a duet of this song with Eric. That would be fantastic.
I sang When David Heard by Eric Whitacre with a choir when I was in high school. It was hard but really fun.
Okay I was confused for a minute saying to myself, "wasn't he in that?" Glad you discussed it right off the bat.
I would say other TH-camrs who do reactions videos, after they checked the video - the original, they must also react to this video - your analysis video because you did cover some important points and they’ll also know you can also do all of it and just for this video you aren’t in the main focus, cuz’ you are very talented so much so that you almost mimicked the colours of their voices and literally sung some low notes along literally before our eyes, also highlighted some parts that are the high notes....... maybe you should have been featured a little bit more. But anyways if I were to be a part of this, even if my face isn’t seen and even if I sang only one note, I’ll be incredibly grateful.
Yeah people should react to your video for sure. 😜😊
Norseman Peter Barber lol.....Love it!!
Peter ain't done Valhalla Calling yet...
hi Peter,
The dedication to my writing muse & fellow piratey, mermaid, LOTR/Hobbity sister Kathi aka Shadowkat is really beautiful. I have known her for about 13 years. She will be greatly missed 🥺 Thank you
I saw one of the dudes on American Idol.🤩
It took me a while to realize but yah I think that so cool.
Edit: 🥺 I also send my condolences to the family and friends of that person that passed away. May they rest in peace.
I was wondering, among the four of you from The Bass Gang, who has the widest range?
Let's goo
It does sound iike an anthem. Almost mystical.
Luke Taylor was my introduction to bass singing.
Since you are branching out into new singers I'd LOVE to hear your reaction to Loreena McKennitt - The Lady Of Shalott. She's a Celtic singer and has an amazing voice.
And listening to Lorena McKennitt, she’s Canadian, I saw her at the Bakerview theater in Bellingham Washington about 8 to 10 years ago. With her whole medieval band. Haunting and beautiful voice. She has tragedy in her life. Comes through with pathos.
I don't know Shadokat but may she rest in peace.
I would love to see this group do a cover of Song of Durin (Complete Edition) buy Clamavi De Profundis
Do you know who took the chest Ab1, btw? I read on the BSN that there were 8 people on it
I'm curious. How would you say Geoff compares (bass-wise) to yourself, bobby etc?
look at youngs scar video. its a very familiar sound for his evil characters
Hey could you please react to Brook Benton sometime? He's always been my favorite pop Baritone-bass singer
I'd love to see a pic and name associated with each of the singers. Otherwise, how can we even begin to look for them to follow?
you broke it bro with the subharmonic at the end
It's fine cause Colm doesn't do it very often
Colm: Misty mountain (dwarvish version)
If i had a heart (norse version)
Really enjoyed your break down tough.
Subbed and Cheers
I posted the Wellermen vid for my friends on Facebook. Loved how this came out for you fellas. Here is my only rub. The one fella that darkened his voice with his tongue. His vowel sounds were not like everyone else's. Nor were his consonants crisp. If I'm not mistaken that is important part for bass voices. Not being picky just an observation. But I'm sure I can say that much easier than you can since you were part of the group LOL.
Was it the long haired guy? 13:19?
if so i noticed he sounded odd
@@backwardstinker no, I'm pretty sure they are talking about colm. Cause Peter said he purposely darkened his voice. The long haired guy is Jonathan young, he is a metal singer
As well as a cover artist on TH-cam
Colm was the gentleman I was speaking of. I'm sure you all have heard from Peter, and if you ever preformed with a small singing group; keeping your vowel sounds the same is important for continuity and vocal blending. All consonance should be "Right At The Tip Of The Tongue". With his tongue rolled up in his mouth it didn't happen. Now the cherry cheeked fella, had almost the same sound but it was crisp. Wich lent better to the piece.
Question: What kind of Pit Vipers are those?
Please do a reaction to Jonathan Antoine video, he is super talented. He once appeared in britain's got talent 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I'm 42 years old, but can hit E1 on a good day. How do I sing with you all? The group sounds amazing!
The short answer is to start making a bunch of your own bass music and then build up an audience that way (we all keep an eye on up-and-coming basses). Although this huge project isn’t an official group - the Wellermen is the main group and they featured a bunch of us
Could we hear your opinion of Jinjer playing Pisces.
Peter, for colm McGinniss, does he use chest voice, becaus every videos I watch, it seems to be some other technique, almost liek chest fry.
I saw this and said to myself," Tim who??" "Geoff who??"
Please please please react to “I’ll run to you” from pentatonix!! You’ll cry it’s so beautiful
The bass is with us, but all the bass belong to you
Geoff Castellucci has got a new video of doing Big Bad John you might want to check it out
Peter please react to Wicked Game - Diana Ankudinova PS THE BALD JUDGE IS Igor Yakovlevich Krutoy, is a Ukrainian and Russian music compose Diana has the same music composer AS dimash kudaibergen - ave maria new wave 2021 the man at the piano Igor Yakovlevich Krutoy, is a Ukrainian and Russian music composer is on video
It would be cool to see your reaction to this video:
Clap it up Dan -Just A Little Talk With Jesus x Rainbow of Love.
Beautiful. Non gratuitous, but not understated either.
Okay, so who is this Jojo character and can you cover more stuff he's in? :)
in a way you were in the ending...singing with the end
This should’ve had Tim, Avi and Geoff in it too. Still phenomenal
And Eric Holloway!
I can tell everyone is really talented with how low they all can sing but would have liked a few more bass guys to fill out the harmonies a little more like the bassist from Home Free, Geoff Castellucci, and there is another that I can't remember his name but this is only my opinion.
Someone put both earbuds in, or headphones on, and go to 19:47
Just, you know, no reason
Ciao Peter , i think you must react to "You're the mean one Mr Grinch" by Small Town Titans . I bet you will surely love the voice , it's a masterpiece perf . And he is may be will remind you one of these guys ;) Oh , and you told me you did not sing sub cuz you are not good at it AHAHHA ya lier !
Luke legit sounds like a Dwarf. Something about his diction is just exactly right for Dwarvish music.
Should totally do a reaction to Sam Robson. His work is so impressive and unique:

Stop being so damn handsome okay? Thanks.
Lol I'll get right on that 😆
