Pure JOY! - Elevator Operator Reaction

[@B-rad37]

The amount of pure joy this band is. It’s pure unadulterated fun.

[@GeorgeBezerra85]

Love how, after the elevator music, the really heavy part right after just plays around the same melody.

[@DaFootyChannel]

Electric Callboy are genuinely one of the best things to happen to metal in recent years, they just bring pure fun and joy, especially in world that’s currently the way that it is. We need them and long may they reign 🫡

[@ShawnTheMoth]

Just watched the TankTheTech reaction and he mentioned this is actually based on a real person and event that happened

[@Gr33nMamba]

Yeah, its worth a watch, if you gives you a bit of insight to the inspiration for this along with who the operator is played by.

[@d.hodgsky]

Yes, I was going to comment about Tanks video! He must know the band or something...

[@patrickconnolly838]

[@darmokVtS]

​@@patrickconnolly838 Isn't he at this point their tourmanager in general? At least he was touring with EC in Europe when I saw them.

[@patrickconnolly838]

@@darmokVtS oh maybe I guess I just assumed he was the US manager no worries either way

Last scene: Baby Metal ;)

[@FenstarDeLuxe]

The rave bridge made this old skool raver very nostalgic. Loved it all.

[@Liz-cmc313]

Probably their heaviest so far, definitely my fav🤘🏼🔥

[@Apfelkind4000]

The “elevator operator” is Uke Bosse, an actor and professor of game design at the University for media design in Berlin. Imagine your professor is part of an Electric Callboy video. 🤣

[@SteveOGRock]

Haha that’s epic

[@Stormwarnings-000]

I was at this shoot, but only heard the last 60seconds (about 200 times 😂) so much fun to hear the whole thing, how well the elements blend - the skips in the synths and the rock instrumentals mirroring it is so well pointed out. Fun to rock out with you!

[@SteveOGRock]

Oh nice!

[@DanNUFC1992]

You cannot help smile when that guy appears in the lift man 😂

[@WeAreTheUniverse78]

Seriously catchy!! Def on my top 3 EC songs. My kind of club music 🕺🎧

[@metalcorian]

After 2 years of listening to them (they were my introduction to metal) and hearing this for about 50-60 times since it dropped I can safely say this might be my favourite song of theirs. Just AMAZING!

[@TheBuzzkill2020]

Thanks!

[@SteveOGRock]

Oh thank you very much indeed! So thrilled to hear you enjoyed this! 💙

[@KristenKing-ix7mn]

This song made my Friday even better! Easily one of my favorite songs of theirs! ❤

[@kasperkauhanen4420]

I think the key thing that really makes this song is how the interplay between the EDM and metal is executed. At heart this song is made up of like 2-3 different musical ideas which they recycle from section to section mostly by transferring the same idea to different instrumentation and / or combining the different instrumentations. That's what makes the songs transitions so smooth: when we move to a different section, it's actually the previous section all over again but recontextualized. It's just great songwriting.

[@TheBuzzkill2020]

Steve lol great reaction

[@Frau_Pikachu]

My absolute favorite EC-Breakdown ever!! 😮‍💨❤️‍🔥

[@Robert_Herring]

This will be absolutely brilliant live.

[@telnobody737]

Baby in discoball helmet= baby metal.

[@OldDark1337]

may be another song?! :)

[@GeorgeBezerra85]

@@OldDark1337 they already have a collaboration with Babymetal called Ratatata, that baby is using the same outfit they use in that song.

[@Mrjobe_]

The beat from the samba elevator music is the beat that plays next too, just in hard core metal. and a baby metal in the end. nice touch.

[@michi_bella]

Best reactions there are ❤So genuinely enjoying the music 🤘🏼 😊

[@SpecieStacking]

Kevin's screams in this song are amazing.

[@markd.9422]

IT IS a Masterpiece! 😀

[@NeilWoolley]

100% Masterpiece, totally agree

[@NovaMenno]

I really hope that when they do this live they take the club section and just draw it out for a bit to stay in that pocket. That way the band can also rest a bit

[@Spaceycasey1414]

I love Electric Callboy!!! Never miss a video or reaction, so fun.

[@HighlandCoo]

Absolute banger, as expected! 🤘🏻🥳🤘🏻

[@sempiternalfire]

This chorus has been stuck in my head all day 😂 *Elevator operator... Up up, down down, up up* (cue dance emotes)

[@dianacourtney-smith9633]

The bit with the mermaid in the elevator is their homage to 'elevator music' and the bossa nova rhythm carries over into the following riffage. Love it!

[@scherry9198]

Best breakdown of this song. Subbed!

[@SteveOGRock]

Cheers!

[@kat_ha.777]

If you kiss the rocket there in the background, maybe your room shoots up to space :D

[@sliversoulfly]

We always need more fun metal. It's everything you could hope for from EC. I don't know what Nico did, but Kevin's harsh vocals seem to improve every song they do together.

[@ajc1888]

Tank the tech tells the story of how the song came into being lol what a song

[@mrspittfire2087]

Another uplifting and banger song from this band. Electric Callboy simply never disappoints. I'm looking forward to the Nova Rock Festival in Austria this summer. Finally new songs and live shows again. I'm still surprised that there are so few reaction videos of their more serious songs on KZbin. Compared to the more fun songs. @SteveO´G I don't know if you've heard Mindreader, Parasite or Fuckboy. Greetings from beautiful Austria!

[@SteveOGRock]

I have indeed! Fuckboy is so frickin good.

[@edsonseabra5393]

The guitars are the same as a clawfinger song called “chances”

[@Vanilja]

I am so damn excited to see them again later this year, but fuck me I need to get in better shape to keep up with that 😂

[@SteveOGRock]

😂

[@wwpdmedia]

I went in at rock im Park. Hard. I soon learned that I'm older than I thought. 15 minutes later I was panting a few meters back. Still one of the best live shows I've ever been at.

[@CerebralRage66]

I like how you watch the whole video then add the break down. I never noticed the gaps in guitars before. The elevator music is in the original song. I listened to the song last night before the video came out

[@SteveOGRock]

Cheers!

[@GeorgeBezerra85]

So, "We Got the Moves" was the go-to song to introduce new people to Electric Callboy. Now I'm not sure if I want to keep using that song or switch to this one instead.

[@aimeevandijk1482]

You're on the ball Steve :D

This song is such a banger. Welcome to my heavy rotation mix, Electric Callboy!
