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. :)

[@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?

[@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!

[@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

[@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

[@JosieCharlwoodmusic]

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

[@mrqh406]

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

[@ImakeucryxD]

OMFG I can't stop listening to this

[@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.

[@ianharding5739]

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

[@guilhermepereira103]

2016 and i still watching every day, amazing voice, cheers from Brazil

[@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/

[@droy333]

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

[@xaaeon]

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

[@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/

[@uselessquest]

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

[@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

[@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!

[@nathie]

awesome 👏🏼

[@kiddfox98]

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

[@TotonhocoSC]

[@dashJdot]

Not having a good day. Listen to this. Glad to understand technical aspects of this and why it works perfectly. Such a sweet voice. Absolutely gonna tell everyone about this.

[@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. :)

[@NateJacobMusic]

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

[@AntonDasBomb]

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

[@Aerorokker1]

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

[@xavierwatkins6579]

Awesome

[@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. ;-)

[@severe28]

Best cover by far of this song..

[@dustinedwards8504]

Watching the creativity in your videos inspires me. Thank you.

[@ljfuller09]

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

[@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.

[@user-hw3ej6ht6y]

I'd go see her in concert ...

[@Jesussssays]

So, so, so many chills. So incredible.

[@DylanFreeman]

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

[@kennedybetancourt4799]

[@TheSoloFrenzy]

This is my most favorite song in the entire world so I'm very picky about the covers and this was pretty awesome.

[@sarahr.8950]

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

[@ramenboi1614]

She has the most amazingly fabulous voices I've ever heard and she should apply for The Voice

[@jamiecell]

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

[@Necroman666]

You can clearly see how she is enjoying it by her exultating facial expressions and voice tones

[@bladesaint21mr]

Haunting voice, tech goddess..wish we had these toys available coming up.

[@ALiAFTERSHOCkx]

Greatest cover ever.

[@TheZildjian99]

YES! just a thousand times yes to this...

[@justinpeace420]

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

[@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. :)

[@rishigiri4185]

You're ridiculously mind-blowing.

[@ExDiva5]

this is brilliant. I cannot even believe the amount of talent and effort this takes. Just wow!

[@HFXmermaid]

this is amazing. One of my fav covers of one of my fav songs ever. Nicely done.

[@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!

[@Arcran55]

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

[@johnno31uk]

when the fs-6 is attached, one press of the right hand pedal is used to switch tracks - the track select indicators on the rc-30 illuminate to determine which track is selected. the left pedal is used to turn on/off the loop Fx.

[@Klipschrf35]

This gives me the CHILLLS, you need to tour up to Canada and sing at some of the pubs out here

[@boreyby]

That was such a BEAUTIFUL performance!!!

[@persephone608]

Josie charlwood, i really love this cover of electric girl, you are very musically talented, confident and clever,hope we hear a lot more of you, and maybe some of your own songs soon,great voice too.

[@joseygirl2873]

OMG! You did my 2 ultimate favorite songs! Electric Feel and Feel Good Inc.!

[@mydlands]

I love how you showed the layers of your loops. This is fantastic. Wonderfully made.

[@andressini3057]

I'm in love of that smile at the end!!!!

[@KingCobra1968]

Josie, feel pleased, you earned every bit of it.

[@kckaseum87]

Wow that was amazing! She is very talented... she can do it all!

[@Xdrakemanx]

Omg dat giggle at the end = 11/10

[@shadowslayer19cg91]

Your talent is wonderful...you're both vocally and instrumentally talented, also beautiful.

[@jeremysautomobile]

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!

[@manivouma2317]

tu m'as fait redécouvrir ce morceau que j'aimais déjà beaucoup. merci pour tout ce talent que tu partages...

[@JosieCharlwoodmusic]

Thankyou! Well I thought, as they are loop-able, I might as well put them down - it makes the timing more even and I can then concentrate more on my vocals/switching the effects/running the loops!

[@gspence1557]

These are excellent, glad you took the time to make them! Added points for cute redhead of course...

[@unpredictableSand]

Wow! She is so gifted, she has a flawless voice

[@CouragesDiamonds]

That ending is incredible, two thumbs up!

[@jeffmorphis5667]

Your smile and voice made like on this great job. talent and quiet determination.

[@jamesdaniels4771]

WOW! You have an amazing voice... chills all down my skin. Well done.

[@dethamathispote]

Love from Greece!!!!

[@baileya7913]

OH MY GOD I DID NOT EXPECT THIS TO BE AS GOOD AND AMAZING AS IT IS.

[@inKendis]

Love that smile at the end. :3 What a beautiful and talented lady.

[@r0ll754]

incredible artist. I am in awe of the talent it must certainly take to arrange this and perform it live like this. I am also eternally thankful that someone so talented is putting their stuff out there for all to enjoy for free! Thank you

[@D_Whit3]

This was so pleasant to watch and listen too. One of my favorite songs

[@xKoolxaidxmanx45x]

this is the first video of yours that ive watched, and i can honestly that there is literally nothing you could do to make your voice any better than it is now
