I’m so happy you did end up filming your analysis on this! (I eagerly await your version!) it’s just all so incredible and they fit in so much, which you breakdown so well🤯 There are so many moments of ‘what is going on’ and I LOVE IT 😂 it’s great watching you find the bass line and focus on what’s going on there or Layne’s crazy sound effects. 👏🏼 fab job!
I'd love to see a joint reaction to one of Voiceplay/Geoff's songs from you two. I know different time zones makes it difficult but yours are two of the few channels I am subscribed to to see these analyses, along with Mortius and The Charismatic Voice. Learning a lot about acapella and music in general (didn't know much until I started watching your reactions).
17:45 I'm pretty sure it's ingressive phonation on Layne's part. It's a pretty common technique in beatbox, and I've heard it (and done it myself, badly) quite a few times!
Yeah, I think it may also be related somehow to the thing he does at 23:04, from which Peter pulls out the snort, but there's more than that just going on. I call the whole thing "Layne's beatboxing warthog impression that he does in Enemy".
I've listened to this song over 10 times, seen several reactions, and still you point out things that I hadn't noticed yet. Thank you so much for this analysis!
Thank you so much for reacting to this one! It‘s in my top three VoicePlay Covers ever easily. The amount of greatness and cool moments in here is just mind boggling! You were right about some of the low G1‘s and F#1‘s being subs AND some being chest. You can hear the difference in the ‚weight‘ or the ‚punch’ of the notes. The chest note just hit you more intensely than the subharmonics. I think the one beatbox sound by Layne before one of the verses was an ingressive note I‘m pretty sure. And the suuuuuuper low slide at the end by Geoff ended on a quick A0! It‘s a chest slide that transitions into a growl or subharmonic slide (there’s a bit of a debate going on wether it‘s growl or subs). The blend between the two slides is of course hidden by some fantastic audio engineering.
Geoff might not be the lowest or the loudest but, his "cut" in his voice is amazing. His lower notes A-G sound a lot better than some other bass singers. No hate, just my opinion. Everybody has there signature sound.
Im here for the epic breakdowns. I feel theres no need to apologize as I assume a breakdown is about 5 minutes per minutes of the music. Especially in acapella because theres no instruments. Id watch the breakdown of this video for an hour no prob. There was so much going on. Geoffs high note was also epic and I hope you heard it but didnt comment.
That sound is either a very low belch or a lion who wandered in. Lions make sounds like that. :) Have you heard their Dream On yet? Cesar does that very note. Geoff ends on a C1 in his latest solo Way Down. He said it took him 80 attempts to do it. :)
And he clarified in his recent webchat that it didn't take 80 takes just to hit the note, because that alone isn't a problem - it took 80 takes to get a musical tone out of it rather than it just sounding like a croak or burp. I guess we take for granted how easy he makes it seem in videos!
A song like this is definitely worthy of your in depth analysis, because there is so much going on that it's hard to keep track of if you just listen without really paying close attention ❤️
You do such amazing analysis--mad respect for your treatment of other artists when you're doing such amazing things with Bass Gang. This was an unprecedented 4 Pit Viper video. Looking forward to seeing what you think about Geoff's Way Down.
Absolutely love your reaction’s, you have such a smooth and soothing voice, I watch your reaction’s more then anyone else’s. Thanks for your insights on music and all your endeavors! Keep on doing the good work!
VP's version is the very first time I heard this song. It grew on me. They all did such a fantastic job! 💯🔥. I even lost track of the Pit Vipers! 🤣. I've heard Layne going really low on inhales, maybe that's what he did @ 22:39. Please react to Geoff's "Way Down" soon 🔥 Looking forward to your version of Enemy! 💯
Ok. Wow. Wow again. I’ve watched, man, thousands of vocal reaction videos. It’s my thing. I love to tear apart songs myself. But this reaction? I would have watched the hour long reaction you so wanted to do! You broke it apart so very well. Excellent work on this reaction. If you ever find out what that low, distorted kind of sound was when you said the jury’s out on that one, please let us know!
Love their version as much as I do the original. And cannot wait to hear yours as well. As always, an amazing analysis, by far the best out there. No one comes CLOSE to your level of in depth reaction and analysis. Always appreciated, thank u so much
Love this and your analysis. Have learned so much listening to your channel. When I was trained in voice (70s) girls were not encouraged to explore how deep there voice could go. It was unthinkable. You became an Alto because you just couldn't hack it as a Soprano. I have had so much fun exploring the deeper side of my range. Conversely it has also had the effect of extending my range upward too. I have been hitting high notes that I haven't hit since I was 20. It has reignited my love of singing.
What a fun way to listen to music that I otherwise would not have appreciated the creative, innovative vocal acrobatics except with your close focus on individual performances coalescing into the 'whole'. An R&A led by you is akin to viewing gross anatomy before placing small pieces of the specimen under a microscope -- discovering the amazing, unknown world that our naked eye could never see. This R&A is guiding discovery for untrained ears.
I’ve been hoping for an analysis from you on this one. Thank you so much, you help me to understand and appreciate what is going on even more. I would have watched for much longer 😃
Every time VoicePlay releases a new video, I immediately check your page for a reaction video. I love watching your reaction and listening to your analysis. Thank you!
Thank you so much for doing this analysis, really appreciate it. In spite of hearing this dozens of times since it came out you still pointed out some things I hadn't noticed yet. Can't wait to hear your cover of it and see a comparison at some point.
I really enjoy your breakdowns, I will listen to your breakdown first and then go listen to the video on its own, because! Because I will have more appreciation for the video after listening to your narrative. Thank you so much!!!
The first times I heard the song I thought it came from Alexa. So I believe it's same for most of the reactors. You have to listen to it a couple of times untill you believe it was really Geoff.
Right? I think part of the problem is there are a lot of notes, both high and low, were we actually do not see whoever it is singing it. I know one reactor wondered if maybe Eli took over going into that high riff, so maybe the reason nobody is mentioning it is they’re not quite sure it’s Geoff. (It is-he’s gone into the 5th octave in other songs as well.) Same with some of the lower notes that are less vocals than just really unusual sounds. Just about the time you’re sure it’s Geoff making all of them then we SEE Layne making one. It’s GOTTA be interesting living in Layne’s house. I have this suspicion that he walks around making experimental noises quite a lot.
@@Melisendre He does _eventually_ hand it off to Alexa, but not until he has already gone way up into the countertenor range and held it for a bit. The "My enem-EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-eee-eee-eeeeeee" part is all Geoff, _then_ (at about 21:00 or 21:01) he hands the high part off to AleXa and returns to the subwoofer cave from whence he came.
Thank you thank you for doing this! I’ve been waiting to hear your take on this-and now I can look forward to your version!! By the way, I rarely have a favorite song-seems like my favorites change by the day, if not sometimes by the hour. BUT the song I’ve heard in my head and HAD to play every morning for awhile now? TBG’s version of Yellow Flicker Beat. I’m dying to see your analysis/discussion of that one because you made some really interesting choices. Hope you’re loving Santa Fe!
Fantastic analysis as always, love when you do a deep dive like this. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us and I can't wait to hear your version!
The low stuff by Layne towards the end sounds exactly like what we used to call the (evil monsters) "Snarklies" in Doom...even my kiddo, who was a toddler sitting on my lap as I played, would recognize them by that sound and call them by name! Go Layne!!
I have a feeling that weird sound effect at 17:34 or so sounds like a noise Layne or Geoff would make. I feel like I've heard that sound before in another song but I can't think of what song it was. It's still insane though. Awesome analysis! Love your content!
geoff uses subharmonic only 1 or 2 times in this song the others are actually chest but it is low end for him it is hard to give it strong so sounds like this
May I suggest you do a reaction video, then when you can, do an analysis video, you could combine them into one. Love your insights, but I also look forward to your shock and awe response.
Once again lovely breakdown! I know you try to keep these to 30min, but I think as complex as this was 45 to 1hr. would have been fine. We would have went down the rabbit hole with you 😜 My nephew is a big Imagine Dragons fan. I'll have to get his take on this. Thank you so much for sharing your gifts ❤️
Dude, You really are the best at this type of content. Even Charismatic Voice is a bit too simple to keep me engaged, and every one else is just like "wow bass." I have no musical education, and I can tell you love and deeply understand this art. I really hope your channel soars to the top.
Really loved this breakdown!! I saw a video of Imagine Dragons doing this live, and their singer also stuck on the e sound in greatest the same way AleXa did. I wonder if that came naturally to her or if she saw that performance and decided to keep it that way to honor the original? Either way, really cool. Great analysis, as always! ❤️🤩
you mentioned you have done a lot of listening to other covers of Enemy... if you have not there is another acapella group who did the "opening to arcane" version of Enemy.. it dose not have low base or such but "Maytree" dose an interesting cover of the opening i think you would enjoy to see how else the cover may have been done acapella
That closed e vowel you were talking about at 16:04 is one of several examples in this song that feel too my linguistic degree ears as artifacts from her K-Pop style. That very open vowel you demonstrated sounded very much like the kind of transatlantic vocalization that comes from a native English speaker's native accent being swallowed in the open vowel. AleXa is at least bilingual, I believe, English and Korean, but when she sings I can definitely hear hints of the Korean, which I suspect she does deliberately. From my own experience using singing as a first step to picking up a new language's vowel sounds, closed vowels are easier to flavor with the accent.
Not to be rude, but aspiration is actually inhaling, and often its used to describe aspirating a thing, such as choking on your drink, you aspirate the liquid. Expiratiion is the act of exhaling, or breathing out.
@Peter Barber I think I know what 16:30 is, as you said it may have been Geoff just pitched down but it also may have been layne’s inward bass, a lot of competitive beatboxers use inward bass, but I personally haven’t heard enough of laynes inward bass to see if it is or not, he has done it in the past but usually a bit higher, only example I know of is at the end of sh-boom
That crazy sound at 17:38 seems like it's probably just inhale bass with minimal editing, after just a minute of playing around it's pretty easy to recreate
Eyy Peter, Your doing a great job with your video's. I am form the Nederlands and I watch al of your video's. Please lissen to: Stand music blessing. It's a amazing group with great singers. You like it!!
At 1: 34 in the original (th-cam.com/video/yR7caU0R__E/w-d-xo.html ), a split second before Geoff starts his solo, I'm hearing what sounds like a soft D1 growl...? Anyone else hearing that?
24:54 Im a baritone that can chest down to a Eb and belt full chest up to a d5 when im warmed up. Idk if there is different techniques required from opera singers that isnt found in pop singing
Peter, did you finally get acclimated to the lack of humidity? I don't detect any throat irritation that you were experiencing not too long ago. 😊 Great analysis, I can see why you could keep adding to this one. There were so many parts to hear and I could listen to this cover hundreds of times and still hear a new detail. It's astounding what acapella artists can do.
"Crazy sound effect" @17:33 I know there's a term for this, but breathing inward while talking/singing for lower notes, but NOT subs (Layne is doing this) saying the word *"dang!"* . There's no modulation. It's pure vocal. And he likely did it IN WITH the beat boxing. _-(I'm also thinking someone else should have said this by now...)-_ Engineer When _(4 months ago)_ 17:45 I'm pretty sure it's ingressive phonation on Layne's part.
I’m so happy you did end up filming your analysis on this! (I eagerly await your version!) it’s just all so incredible and they fit in so much, which you breakdown so well🤯 There are so many moments of ‘what is going on’ and I LOVE IT 😂 it’s great watching you find the bass line and focus on what’s going on there or Layne’s crazy sound effects. 👏🏼 fab job!

OMGGGG. Voiceplay just did release another video. We need your collaboration on this.
I JUST saw you analyse his own original version which wasgood and interesting
20:27 The F#1 is actually chest. We haven't had a chest F#1 from Geoff in a while, so it's nice to hear it again.
Woah yeah, upon relistening, that solo F#1 was totally chest! I just assumed he would use the same approach as he did earlier. Awesome!
That F#1 on geoffs solo was chest! And then he hits some really nice highs right after in the background. He’s a monster!!
I feel like people don't realize that was him because they cut away to Alexa
that high note from Geoff is insane
I was a little sad Peter didn't say anything about that. Still a great analysis, though.
D5 i think
@@dieselfreak28 true, many reactors completely ignore it
@@LednacekZ I'm not sure some of the reactors realise that is actually Geoff hitting that high. x
I listened to it so many times on Patreon and didn’t realize it was him until the public premiere.
The high notes he thought were alexa's were actually geoffs.
Yeah I was gonna say that the first time I watched this when this reaction came out..definitely Jeff..
Peter, at 20:55, it’s Geoff that hits the high note and Alexa is doing a whistle note above it in the background
The unintelligibly low note from Geoff is a growl A0
absolutely insane !!
Came hunting comments just to see if this was mentioned yet haha
@@disrespectz I did the same thing before writing this comment XD 🤣
The fact that he described it that way made me giggle, it was funny to see him so stunned!
Great reaction again. Geoff’s solo showing off that range is just wild.
17:45 I'm pretty sure it's ingressive phonation on Layne's part. It's a pretty common technique in beatbox, and I've heard it (and done it myself, badly) quite a few times!
I agree. Layne has done the before
Yeah, I think it may also be related somehow to the thing he does at 23:04, from which Peter pulls out the snort, but there's more than that just going on. I call the whole thing "Layne's beatboxing warthog impression that he does in Enemy".
Actually funny thing, most of those low F#1 and G1 from Geoff are actually chest notes, a few were subs but most were actually chest.
I've listened to this song over 10 times, seen several reactions, and still you point out things that I hadn't noticed yet. Thank you so much for this analysis!

To be honest, Voiceplay's version was the first I heard this song. I personally liked it better than the original I listened to later.
I can say that about every cover of an Imagine Dragons song I've ever heard, like Pentatonix & Lindsey Stirling doing "Radioactive".
Im here for the epic breakdowns. I feel theres no need to apologize as I assume a breakdown is about 5 minutes per minutes of the music. Especially in acapella because theres no instruments.

@@maeco7 I can understand that as there are high notes I can achieve but they sound pretty awful. LOL
Thank you for introducing me to Voiceplay and this world of acapella.
Peter, no!! Did you think Geoff’s exquisite, beautifully produced high notes were Alexa? For shame!
That is exactly what he did.
Geoff's slide at the and finishes with A0 growl
I think that’s the first time I’ve seen four pit vipers for Geoff in one reaction! Lol
As always, top notch analysis, sir!

I've heard Layne going really low on inhales, maybe that's what he did @ 22:39.
Please react to Geoff's "Way Down" soon 🔥
Looking forward to your version of Enemy! 💯
I always learn something new thanks to your analysis, no matter how many times I've already watched the original video or other reactors.
Layne did an inhale fry after the throat bass
Geoff’s growl ended on a B0 with an A0 for a split second.
I love hearing you talk! Your voice is beautiful! I love this video! Look forward to hearing your version.

I loved the cover and your reaction. I was waiting for it!
Thank you so much for your in-depth analysis. I always learn something watching your videos.
That's an awesome analysis!!! Love your videos and analysis' you help me learn more about bass singing with every video
The low stuff by Layne towards the end sounds exactly like what we used to call the (evil monsters) "Snarklies" in Doom...even my kiddo, who was a toddler sitting on my lap as I played, would recognize them by that sound and call them by name! Go Layne!!

did you just skipped the insane high note of Geoff?? NOOO
He sure did & I believe he gave credit to that high note to Alexa

geoff uses subharmonic only 1 or 2 times in this song the others are actually chest but it is low end for him it is hard to give it strong so sounds like this
grt breakdown...almost like runnin a marathon in dbletime
Just to let you know, that b5 is from Geoff.
Thanks!
So excited for This!! 💙🖤💙🖤
as you say geoff hits a thick G1 chest but you cant realize before the G1 geoff actually hit several F#1 chests

At 22:39 it was in fact Inward Bass, which is the exact same position as throat bass, but inward
It's a very common bass in beatboxing
20:25 I'm like 99% sure that, that is Geoff
very early! love these videos. hope you do a reaction to geoffs newest vid soon

Wait...thats 4 wipers...a first?
the sound effect that you weren't sure about was an inhale sound effect from Laine.
When you listen the karaoke especially, I'm pretty sure all F#1's are chest, only the F1 on his "enemy" after the first chorus is sub.

Peter, did you finally get acclimated to the lack of humidity? I don't detect any throat irritation that you were experiencing not too long ago. 😊
Great analysis, I can see why you could keep adding to this one. There were so many parts to hear and I could listen to this cover hundreds of times and still hear a new detail. It's astounding what acapella artists can do.
I like you explaining but also doing the beat box if its the good (excuse me it's not i'm only french)
good ( excuse me) good word !
"Crazy sound effect" @17:33
I know there's a term for this, but breathing inward while talking/singing for lower notes, but NOT subs (Layne is doing this) saying the word *"dang!"* . There's no modulation. It's pure vocal. And he likely did it IN WITH the beat boxing.

17:45 I'm pretty sure it's ingressive phonation on Layne's part.
