I start every day looking for new Voiceplay reactions - it's a bonus when I see someone reacting for the first time. Each member of the group records their part in their own in-home studio. When they do the video, they sing it live to make sure that they don't lose any of the facial/vocal elements. I hope you will come back to Voiceplay often, they are phenomenal! Subscribed in anticipation.

Layne Stein (vocal percussion) and Geoff Castellucci (bass) were some of the founding members of Voiceplay back in 1997, Layne was not the original beatboxer though, he took over that spot when the original beatboxer left. Every once in a while, you will hear an arrangement where he sings and he has a lovely baritone voice. Eli (his name is pronounced like 'Ellie, as in rhymes with jelly', his full name is Eliezar, not Elijah, thus the difference in pronounciation) has been a member since 2010. Cesar has been an official member for just under a year, but so far has proven a spectacular edition to their group. He and the group do say SEE-zer, not Say-ZAR when pronouncing his name, but since he is Puerto Rican, I have assumed that he has just adjusted to pronouncing it the way most Americans THINK his name should be pronounced. Layne and Geoff do almost all of the arrangements for the group. I have loved watching Geoff's videos talking about vocal techniques specifically related to singing low. He has stated in an interview that even if he had never reached a point where he could support himself professionally as a performer, he would be involved in music in some way, such as teaching and/or arranging. Jose was a member of Rockapella and has done a lot of touring in Hamilton, being the swing/understudy for a vast number of those roles, which can't be easy. Geoff just recently mentioned that he is also a natural director, and whenever they have brought him in as a featured performer, he can always be relied upon to make good suggestions as far as staging, costuming, makeup and camerawork, etc. I have an okay singing voice, but I'll be the first to admit I would be hopeless at a cappella. That ability to go from singing the main melody to harmony to supporting the rhythm background without being tripped up by what every one else was doing and yet being able to blend with the other voices as needed just amazes me.

I am with you there; I would suck at a cappella... even though I have a 6 octave range (B -1-C6; one note below C0 to soprano C), I could never be able to use and access it the way Geoff can. Not having a frame of reference to sing to would have me stumbling over myself.

@@johndeeregreen4592 I would love to be in an a capella group...maybe when I'm older cause I'm only 15 and honestly my dream is to be in Voiceplays group. But I know that's probably unlikely cause it seems they only have females as guests not permanent members..I do have my vocal range to like 5 1/2 octaves I think. (A0-G6). I'm still working on sliding in and out of subharmonics (so I guess that answers one of geoffs questions when he didn't know if females could do subharmonics) then again I don't really know what I am (meaning soprano, alto, contralto..etc.) but the only reason I think I would have a chance is because of my range at my age...and the fact that I just started learning low note about 2 weeks ago..

Usually when Voiceplay features a guest artist, the guest artist does get a prominent part in the video with a good amount of solo parts as well as harmony parts. But this particular video was supposed to feature a high tenor that couldn't make it after all due to covid restrictions, so Eli had to step in as high tenor while Jose was called in to do Eli's original role as tenor. That is why Eli had such a prominent part in this video, he had to take all the guest artist parts. Which is why Jose has an unusual lack of lead vocals in this one. It pays off to have members that can sing multiple roles when needed 😄

One really cool thing about VoicePlay is how much creative control they have on their music. Geoff and Layne take turns handling probably 99% of the vocal arrangements, which is part of what gives them a distinctive sound and also what allows them to take some risks that other groups might not. Whoever arranges the song also takes lead on the video work. They source their own sites (sometimes using Pattycake Productions, a video studio that Layne co-owns with former VoicePlay baritone Tony Wakim), handle costuming and props, directing and shooting the video, as well as editing it. Eli does their lighting work, has helped with some video effects and also has had a hand in some arrangements. The degree to which they are hands on at every stage is one of the things I most respect about them.

Eli holds that note forever and then Geoff sings “die”for what seems like minutes.

The vocal blend between Eli, Cesar (it is Sea-zer) and featured singer Omar in Dream On is simply stunning. They move in and out of a very individual tone, to a blend where they sound like brothers. It's so charmed that there was a huge debate over which one actually hit that top note - since all of them are capable, and in that moment they sounded so much alike. Turns out it was Cesar - he had to tell us. Back in the day I believe most of their arranging was done collaboratively as a group. That's no longer the case; Geoff and Layne each do nearly 50%, with a little over for Eli or Rob Dietz to do one now and then. This arrangement was Geoff's. Over the last year Eli has picked up doing a lot of the visuals: most of the lighting/effects and sometimes set design. He also helps with the editing. Don't overlook their mini's - they are absolutely stunning. (Especially Crazy and I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire).

Jose is a member of Rockapella, so he certainly has the experience to step in on what was - in this case - short notice. He has sung with them before, and actually sang in high school productions with Cesar. But VoicePlay has the ability to arrange for and choose many different artists and blend them seamlessly into the group. Recently, AleXa (winner of American Song Contest) let them know she would like to work with them. The arrangement for Enemy was already about finished so the collab came together quickly, with AleXa taping her part using green screen in South Korea, and of course their parts were recorded and filmed on green screen in the Orlando area. After Eli and Layne finished their arduous editing, the finished video was released recently and is amazing. You’d never know they weren’t all together for the taping.

If they are arranging the music they also do the costuming, staging, makeup, camera work, video as well as pre-mix audio. Eli has taken on the lighting duties, as well as video backgrounds/green screens, etc. In their newest song, Enemy featuring AleXa (KPop singer from S Korea). She did her singing, and dancing (video and audio) there in S. Korea and Eli incorporated her video into the group's video for a final presentation. Superbly done. I enjoyed listening to you and hope you will do more reactions/analysis for VoicePlay's work. Some outstanding songs: Warriors, Dream On, Friends on the Other Side (features J. None on leave from his choir job in the US Navy to take the lead in this), Dragonborn Comes Skyrim, Halo, one of their songs from the Season 4 Sing-Off is Road Trip which is funny and really good. Also includes Tony Wakim (who left VP to start up Pattycake Production Studio that VP often uses and Layne has half-interest in) and Earl Elkins, who left to spend more time with family, and has Geoff, Eli and Layne.

I agree a cappella groups aren't getting their due. The Sing Off went a long way to bring back the music genre from barbershop days of yore. The show introduced us to Pentatonix and Home Free along with a number of other notable groups. We need an all star Sing Off with groups of today. The market success of these groups spawned interest in a number of other very talented groups such as Voice Play and Voctave to name a few. These groups have jumped on the the self marketing methodologies afforded by KZbin or Patreon that have allowed them to bypass industry filters and nonsense that prevents the listening audience from embracing new music. I'm floored Country Music hasn't embraced Home Free better particularly after they recognized Pentatonix collaboration with Dolley. I believe it's past time for the Grammy's to establish a category for a cappella. In fact, if they want to see a viewership increase, I'd suggest highlighting various groups throughout an awards show related to introducing the new category. That would be much watch TV!

I agree with you about the vocal slides. They are so hard to execute in perfect sync between all members of the group. I actually think Home Free do the vocal slides on the same vowel sound and with the same intensity better, but Voice Play is right on their tails with their ability to execute it well. It's so much harder than people realize. Mostly because everyone pronounces things differently, so the vowel sound is just ever so slightly different from person to person.

Cesar is very light and angelic, while Eli adds a little rock grittiness. It works so well between them. And Layne not 'drumming' for the first half of the song leaves the whole song very basic sounding but so suspenseful. And then it eventually gets to a great climax. One of their best in my opinion.
