+1 for Hoist the Colors... Geoff has a surprise stand-out moment in it.

VoicePlay's arrangements are done by Geoff or Layne, more or less alternately. Eli did do one but other wise it's those two. And whoever did the arrangement also does the editing, they share the filming and Eli is in charge of lighting and backgrounds. In the more recent videos they do hire steadycam operators, although Layne will do that for Geoff's solo videos. It's all them. They are so much more than just singers.

One person - usually Geoff or Layne - heads each project from arrangement, through recording, to post production. It goes to Ed Boyer for the final vocal edit, but they’ve found that the closer they can get it to what they want first, the better. Then Ed just polishes it.

I LOVE that 3 step closeup of Geoff as he's descending! So effective.

It's worth noting that this was done during covid, so they weren't physically anywhere near each other.

I saw a comment on someone else's reaction to this that i think is utterly appropriate: "When your voice is so low that it shakes objects around you, you're a bass. When your voice is so low you're called upon to replicate the thundering sound of a Viking warhorn, you're Geoff Castellucci."

And the backgrounds in this (and in Valhalla Calling) were done by Eli (rock tenor) using some special software (I can't remember the name). He often does the lighting, too.

It's a fog horn! Great reaction, as usual, thanks! Cheers from Italy!

Subbed today! Thanks for another fun reaction. And agree, they are very balanced in sound and style and everything. They give it their all and they are gifted at arranging!

The sound is balanced maybe because they arrange the music themselves. Layne (beetboxer) and Geoff (bass) alter the task between them.

I started listening because of Geoff's voice, but I ended up falling in love with Eli's voice.

Count me in the group that doesn't mind the pauses to react to the video - that's why I am here, for YOU and your insights. If I want to watch their video, well.... I'll go watch their video! You very kindly link to it in every reaction you do, PLUS go the extra mile in including other artists' patreon info and watching the end credits. Love the respect you show!

Ed Boyer is their sound guy. He's great.

#3 for Hoist the Colors! Then Queen in 5 Minutes!

The lyrics for this were taken from the Saga of Egil Skallagrimson, which was written around the 12th century. It's actual Viking poetry.

Sea Shanties were so 2020. VoicePlay went full Viking with this one. Keep on keepin' on, man!

Thanks for another terrific reaction to Voice Play! This one is from the 'Assassin's Creed' video game and is a prequal to their recent release of "Valhalla Calling" (also from 'Assassin's Creed' with the same characters in same costumes but more updated technical effects done by high tenor, Eli). Geoff and beatboxer, Layne take turns doing of their arrangements (Geoff and Layne have been best friends singing together since they were 12 years old in Jr high school and Layne pushes Geoff to hit the insane low notes in his arrangements while Geoff pushes Layne on the beatboxing in his arrangements). Eli, bald, high rock tenor is amazing with the lighting, backgrounds and technical effects.

When it comes to the arrangements that VoicePlay does, both Geoff and Layne will take turns. Both of them are really creative with how they arrange each song.

Do you know that Geoff has a couple of videos: How to sing really low.

Great reaction! Gotta do hoist the colours next please 🙏

Hey I'm a new subscriber. I watched one of your videos and you were talking about how you get some negative comments. You're always going to have haters. Don't pay any attention you're awesome.

Okay. I'm going to throw the wrench into things...I miss your spontaneous, at the moment feedback! Your face/body does something during, but it's impossible to go back and explain and/or point out the cause. The moments gone. BIG SIGH! I know you get pressure from both sides.
