Electric Feel (MGMT Cover) - Josie Charlwood - BOSS RC-30 & TC-Helicon VoiceLive2

DOWNLOAD HERE: josiecharlwood....
Also on iTunes itunes.com/josi... and Amazon
Spotify: open.spotify.co...
This is a live video recorded in one take, of me covering MGMT's Electric feel using my BOSS RC-30 loopstation pedal and TC-Helicon VoiceLive2.
The window in the bottom right was recorded on a separate camera and shows me controlling the units along with a BOSS dual foot-switch which I use to switch channels on the RC-30. The 'sweep filter' effect which you hear at 3:15 is a feature of the RC-30 loopstation and can be put into effect live, as I have demonstrated here. The harmonies which you hear throughout the track are generated by the TC-Helicon VoiceLive2 unit -- you can also see me controlling these in the bottom right hand corner of the screen.
This is my first live video using the RC-30 loopstation so any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

[@Fevir]

Creating the music loops and stuff is like magic to me. Zero idea how people do that.

[@numb1zero]

Fevir it is, in fact, magic, I'm pretty sure.

[@eugenita91]

Fevir Because they believe, they can

[@caden5712]

You should look up live performances of Kishi Bashi. It's so awesome.

[@Mikeztarp]

+SyntheticZero No, it's science. "Loop pedal" is a secret code word for "time machine".

[@melomania2637]

+Fevir Well this ones seems pretty simple. She just uses percussion on the guitar to put the tempo and then does the chords and then the bass.

[@JosieCharlwoodmusic]

Aw thank you so much I really appreciate that. The loops do take a while to arrange and are quite stressful to film haha. It's so nice to hear people like you are enjoying my stuff. Thanks for watching and commenting. :)

[@TheBigmobe]

Man I remember saying this cover sucked and don't capture what MGMT was doing. But 10 years later I am jamming to this plus I bought it

[@kidkarate3435]

Dang, years later and I am still playing your cover!

[@5d3d2d]

and still playing it

[@AndiMichael]

at first i think that, this is maybe boring cover, and then i was curious, what is she doing?... then boom! this girl is awesome :D nice cover josie!

[@JosieCharlwoodmusic]

Thank you! Jools was my first inspiration to start playing keys, singing on that show is one of my biggest dreams!

[@OMGpandemic]

She has more talent than pretty much anyone on the radio these days!

[@JosieCharlwoodmusic]

Thanks - in fact half the songs on my channel are written by me (all the ones that have 'original' in the title). At this stage I have little interest in 'making it big' and am perfectly happy that people on KZbin are enjoying the music, whether it's originals or covers. :)

[@topcat01]

Still watching in September 2024

[@mapetitepoupee]

Was just singing this version! 12 years and I still remember this cover :)

[@lolitslea17]

what the heck?! her voice is fantastic. I sing for a living and I know bad voicals when I hear them haha. she has a gentle, calm indie/psych. rock tone to her voice. nothin' wrong with that!

[@lolitslea17]

it makes me angry how people are on here complimenting awful talent and voice quality and hating on good ones! hah

[@Lokiwins]

Lea Welcome to the internet. You must be new

[@tael64]

Lea I agree. I could hear her having some really good indie music.

[@eye2eye899]

I think she has a great voice too, but you don't need to be a professional singer to have an opinion and think someone has a voice that you personally don't like. It is called an opinion.

[@scoobister5482]

what did you think about kurt cobains voice?

[@lvillalobos]

Everytime I have a crappy day, I come to hear this song and listen/see Josie sing. Then I chill and continue.....its like a "chillax" pill. ;-)

[@ImakeucryxD]

OMFG I can't stop listening to this

[@PunchKickLipstick]

My jaw literally dropped when the guitar came in and it all fell together... jesus christ that's some good stuff.

[@halopgriffon]

I know I'm 3 years late on discovering this, but this is actually a pretty fantastic cover! I love how you made it into your own interpretation as all good covers should do, and the looping process was very very cool! I'm curious and excited to see how much better you've gotten in 3 years since this! Yay new sub!

[@CHAPI929292]

Spartacus321 I know I'm 3 years late to comment but hi

[@blackphaser9956]

with great pleasure, i go on youtube to see this song

[@ianharding5739]

I like you. You have both MGMT and Gorillaz covers.

[@elias_nichols]

Just want to say, your music is amazing, but what I am most impressed by is your graciousness with people who comment, and your humbleness. Keep it up. Very impressed.

[@zaeldan]

two years after I see this video again , just awesome 0/

[@nltcraze]

at first i didnt think it was gonna be good what with the minute and a half of tinkering w / that pedal, but then you opened your mouth and angels rang their bells! absolutely lovely!

[@xaaeon]

I like your covers more than some of the originals...

[@theunknowngalactea]

This is a fantastic interpretation!

[@AntonDasBomb]

you have amazing vocal notes i suprised your not signed yet. great cover and good beats :)

[@mrqh406]

A decade later and still JAMMING !!!!! Yessssss !!!!!!

[@rishigiri4185]

You're ridiculously mind-blowing.

[@Fosforo_p15]

It’s 2019 and i’m still listening to this. I wonder what are you up to now

[@JosieCharlwoodmusic]

Big up! I'm still here. Just started a new project called If It Was Indigo - give us a follow on insta! instagram.com/ifitwasindigo/

[@kiddfox98]

Two years later. And its still so good. Thank you.

[@JosieCharlwoodmusic]

Thanks! Yep I have a pop filter but didn't want to use it for the video..as it would totally cover my face. I use it on all studio recordings though. :)

[@TheUnstuckinTime]

Ahh looping technology i have watched most of your videos this is my favorite. Hope you get somewhere even you dont you can die proud. A voice like that is rare.

[@TotonhocoSC]

[Verse 1] All along the Western front People line up to receive She got the power in her hand To shock you like you won't believe Saw her in the Amazon With the voltage running through her skin Standing there with nothing on She gonna teach me how to swim [Hook] I said: "Ooh, girl! Shock me like an electric eel Baby girl Turn me on with your electric feel" [Verse 2] All along the Eastern shore Put your circuits in the sea This is what the world is for Making electricity You can feel it in your mind Oh you can do it all the time Plug it in and change the world You are my electric girl [Hook x2] Do what you feel now! Electric feel now! Do what you feel now! Electric feel now! Do what you feel now! Electric feel now!

[@severe28]

Best cover by far of this song..

[@JeremyandtheRobots]

You're as good or better than anyone I would hear on the radio without the multi million dollar studio. I hope you make it big!

[@ljfuller09]

I actually like this version of the song MORE than I do the original

[@Aerorokker1]

204 people have no taste, she is very talented and looping is not as easy as it looks Great Job Josie !!

[@user-hw3ej6ht6y]

I'd go see her in concert ...

[@lvillalobos]

I watch this video everytime I need to chill from work..... both to see Josie the beauty and enjoy the amazingness of her music. Perfect combo! keep it up Josie!!!!!!!!!!

[@JosieCharlwoodmusic]

Sadly not! They belong to my dad. It's his music room. :)

[@solderbuff]

Awesome dad.

[@droy333]

That answers my question. Kudos to your dad for supporting your interests and natural talents!

[@DarkAngelEU]

Are you Hufflepuff or do you just like black & yellow color combinations? :D

[@haileygrassie9144]

Google made me do it I'm in Hufflepuff!

[@rholt2]

OMG - i was cruising around to hear examples of the RC-30 - this blew me right away! beautiful song. i just got the TC VL2 about a month ago and to hear someone use both in such a tasteful, artful way - i'm more than amazed! please follow this route - you are seem to be going down the avenues that i want to realize in my music. keep up the GREAT work!

[@DylanFreeman]

The female Ed Sheeran! Us redheads have got that creative spark!!

Josie, your voice shocks me like an electric eel. I've listened at least three times back to back.

Not only do I love this, but it was uploaded on my birthday! It's like a late birthday present!

[@bcqwert]

This deserves more views.I've known about your songs for a long time now but every time i come back to your channel i get caught in the music and listen to most of them :) Just wanted to say thank you!.

[@sarahr.8950]

I'm like obsessed with this video! She's so talented! I watch this at least twice a day

[@mitchdubb1849]

@JosieCharlwood Absolutely love your cover more than the original! This song is now back in my head like 16 years after it came out, and my Wife Loves it, and had never heard me sing it.

[@danielcoffman2034]

So I've heard this song before and I wanted to hear it after you did it and I have to tell you yours blows the original away. You have an amazing voice. I wish the best for you and your music.

[@ee11bjt]

one of the best voices I have heard on youtube. Amazing.

[@omanawawi]

I like your Feel Good cover,gives a vibe that I couldn't say. Your soft tone makes it rare.

[@NateJacobMusic]

Still watching your videos Josie! Thanks for sharing this, you did awesome.

[@xKoolxaidxmanx45x]

[@CouragesDiamonds]

That ending is incredible, two thumbs up!

[@jamiecell]

I keep coming back to this video. I've always loved the way your voice delivers this particular composition.

[@ExDiva5]

[@tacoeatingspaceadventure7146]

Wow. I have been playing music for about 5 years and I am no ware near your level of talent. This is just simply amazing. :)

[@sr71sr71]

I was groovin to it while you layered the tracks, then you began to sing. Jaw dropped at your lovely voice.

[@Arcran55]

I'm frankly jealous of your guitar collection. Brilliant cover!

[@Mida1366]

This is absolutely incredible. Honestly I am completely in awe. This is a really intuitive and well thought up cover and it was beautifully executed.
