Early Watchparty Video

Hey gang, this is "These Mics Lock You To One Note". Would love your thoughts on what can be improved etc! Feeling quite happy with it but we have the chance to do changes before we release it!

Comments

The Chipmonks version is fun, but I would very much like to hear this song in a more natural tone set. once the headache was over, this turned out really good.

Gabrielle H-ing

So much fun! Love it ๐Ÿงก๐ŸงกIt is very clear how much effort went into this, soooo good! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

Mona

I can't wait for a real version of this song. It's sad and sweet and very human and down to earth, and will sound so good with real voice

Sarah Faire

Also we did a few vocal percussion pieces that were a workout like that

Jack's prize should be a 4th dog

The game kinda reminds me of the vocal warmups we used to do back when I was in conservatory. Up the scale to the 9, then 8, 7, 8, 9, 8, 7, 8, 9, 8, 7, 8, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Every major scale from bottom of the clavinova to the top, keep going as long as you can. The point was to stretch the vocal muscles and expand the range.

Sarah Faire

Lol reverse sponsorship. I can just hear the ๐Ÿ’€. Hugs lol

Sarah Faire

Yeah exactly!

JustSomeJK

Yes, you were not alone!! Gotta love a good passing gas joke with a bit of dark humor!

Miriam

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who laughed way too hard at the passing gas joke ๐Ÿ˜‚

JustSomeJK

Everything has probably been said million times already on the previous comments... But u didn't work ur butt off for nothing during those two months! You definitely delivered an awesome video, so entertaining, energetic, nice locations, educational and u were hilarious and Daniel and Jack brought nice chaos to the challenge ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฅฐ I liked the way u had built the story of the whole process, some real big brain stuff there with setting it up too! Loooove that song โค๏ธ!!! And now that I heard more of the lyrics I could find some relatable stuff there. You did a great job with the chipmunk version, sounded really good ๐Ÿ˜Š I can't wait to hear the whole normal version of it and to add it to my playlist ๐ŸŽถ๐ŸฅฐAlso loved the swedish jump (yump), so endearing ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฅฐ Wishing u an awesome weekend ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ’™

Lianne Conroy

Idk I looked away from the timer for a sec... Could be he got "penalized" lol

Joel Berghult

How did Daniel take longer? Even with Jack messing with him he barely had to move?

Lianne Conroy

Loved how it turned out and canโ€™t wait for you to release the normal version as wellโ€ฆcan tell how much effort was put into it โค๏ธ

Missy

Oh yeah now that I recall it I think you've already mentioned this when you teased us with the chipmunk part earlier ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ

Bua (mintteafortwo)

This super fun video, and especially the song made me happy ๐Ÿ˜Š it's beautifully shot, nearly perfection. Love your energy and adding the challenge.. the whole thing felt like a journey. To me, this very engaging video doesn't need to change anything.

Been looking forward to watching this for a while! Ps Joel I know you donโ€™t normally check DMโ€™s but I wrote you about something I think is important, if you do have a sec I would appreciate it a lot

emy

Thanks!! We made a version with louder vocals in the chorus already, good catch!

Joel Berghult

Joel, I love this video so much ๐Ÿฅบ It's well worth the wait. The switches between different locations are soooo seamless. You planned the script and the blocking really, really well (or at least it's edited extremely well). I like how you show your process and journey, trials and errors. These will definitely come in handy for musicians/engineers, I feel. Great humor, it doesn't feel forced. It feels like you. I don't mind the dark humor cuz I do that all the time myself haha One thing I would comment on is that the music is a little loud during chipmunk singing part. I don't know if it's just me though. Just thought it'd be better if the vocals are more prominent. Looking forward to hearing the version with just your singing voice โ™ก One more thing and this is gonna be a bit off topic, but Jack and Daniel are good friends. Whenever I see you guys hanging out I can't help but feel happy for you Joel that you have this amazing company around while you're away from home ๐Ÿ™‚ That's it. Great job, Roomie

Bua (mintteafortwo)

Joel I really loved this! It was super fun watching Daniel and Jack running around! Jack seemed so out of shape, but it was funny seeing him panting around like he doesn't work out lol! Although the video took you 2 months to make, the effort and hard work you put into the set up and video itself really shows. I absolutely loved how your personality shined in this and could tell you genuinely had a fun time making the video, it didn't seem like a chore to you or forced. I like it when you're not afraid to just be yourself and I love seeing you enjoying what you're doing. When you're enjoying being creative and being yourself, I enjoy it more and I think a lot of others do as well. Staying true to yourself is always important, especially in today's world. Really hoping you make a normal version of the song, your voice is perfect for it!

Naomiskyyy

This video was a fun surprise to come home and watch while I unwind from work. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป Tysm!! Itโ€™s currently after 1a.m. for me, so, Iโ€™m gonna have to come back and rewatch this masterpiece tomorrow. So much fun to watch though!! The segment with Jack & Danielโ€ฆso f*cking funny!! Thank you for taking us along with you as you struggled with the mic situation. The end result was definitely worth the wait!! Thank you so freaking much for all of your hard work and dedication to release these high effort and high quality videos!! I really hope this video performs well when you upload it to your YouTube channel!! ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป I appreciate you so freaking much!!

Melissa Rogers

If or when ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป, Joel releases the โ€œnormal versionโ€ of this songโ€ฆitโ€™s going straight into my playlist on Spotify and iTunes!! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ Hi Lea!! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ Itโ€™s so nice to see you here in Patreon!!

Melissa Rogers

Love love love. So funny & interesting. Great song. Just so good!

Heather Lynn

I f**king LOVE this!!! Itโ€™s humorous, informative and down right entertaining. Two f**king months to make and hard AF Iโ€™m sure but EASILY an enjoyable watch.

Nessa

Love it

Patti

This was so good!! Looks like you went through quite the journey to get the setup right! I have to admit I laughed way too hard at the passing gas joke lol. The only tweak I would make, which is so minor, is in the very end it seems to be cutoff just a few seconds too early. Really enjoyed this and happy that you are releasing a normal version of the song!!!

Miriam

Masterpiece!!! Bravo๐Ÿ‘

N M

This was too precious ๐ŸฉทI love it, Joel. You can tell how much effort you put into this, and it is amazing. I can't wait for the normal version, but the lyrics are top freaking notch ๐ŸคŒWhy do you spoil us so? ๐Ÿ’—

Leah Miranda

I really laughed a lot - I liked how you on one hand explained the technical stuff easily and not boring and on the other hand had a lot of fun messing around with the set up. The song gives a lot of Portal vibes which I like ๐Ÿ˜.

Lebuwi

Love the chaotic energy in this. Moving around and the different locations during the the technical stuff was a really great idea. Looks like you had really fun with this. Love how the song came out and would love the normal version. Really like this format and hope you can do more with it. ๐Ÿ’•

Dorie

As someone with a master's degree in audiology this video was right down my alley and reminded me of the videos that made me discover your channel (in my case the hydrophone mics video) ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ’–. You can tell you guys put a lot of effort into it and the production value is amazing ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ‘ Only wish I'd known about the struggle with the program, I could've sent you a copy of my hearing-aid programming software, it wouldve spared you a lot of trouble since it's basically designed to splice up and insolate incoming signals into channels, and it's very precise at it too (and super user-friendly ๐Ÿ˜Š). Glad you worked through it, it really payed off ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ’–

Nataliekey

That was so much fun to watch! I love how relaxed you are amongst your friends. The song is actually very beautiful although I would love to hear the "normal " version. Thanks for all your hard work on this video! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Trisa

Listen, itโ€™s a good joke, maybe even great one, but Iโ€™m gonna need you to stop with the personal attacks! ๐Ÿคฃ I just couldnโ€™t keep up with the pace and my brain glitched out ๐Ÿฅด

Jen ๐Ÿฆ™

I Ioved it! You are so adorable that you make even nerdy stuff sound interesting ๐Ÿ˜‚

Clair (Teampanda)

LOVE these types of vidoes! The song is really a banger too, would love to hear it with your real voice! Gonna be on repeat if you release it

Lea Levin

No wonder you're no good on rollercoasters if that made you sicky ๐Ÿ˜† x

Hayley

The hard work definitely paid off. The walkthrough process all the way to the final song felt like being on a weirdly emotional journey, it feels like weโ€™re going through everything with you ๐Ÿ˜Š My one pretty minor critique would be that I personally found the final part of Jack and Danielโ€™s challenge segment a little too hard to follow and got slightly motion sick from it but apart from that itโ€™s a very solid video and would love to see more videos like this in the future!

Jen ๐Ÿฆ™

That slapped!!! โ€œJust start yapping into the microphone.โ€ Jack: โ€œJingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rockโ€ ๐ŸŽ„๐ŸŽ„Well done Joel, this is a great one ๐Ÿ˜Š

Becky Lorion

You air punching the plants ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ this was fantastic! Make it a new series 10/10 ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Aubrey Danielle

It's entertaining and informative! There's definitely a lot of effort and thought processes placed into this vid. If my just-woke-up-sleepyhead able to focus, smile and understand what's going on, I think viewers can understand and enjoy too. Having game challenges thrown in are really fun. I kept smiling goofily at Daniel Thrasher and Jacksfilm. They're such good sports even though you're mischievous to them. Lol. Overall, I LOVE this! There's nothing to improve on. It's perfect as it is. Now that we get to hear the song.. it's bittersweet.. I will love the normal version and will patiently wait for it. Well done, Joel~~๐Ÿ’œ

โ™ ๏ธ Aslyn Jobry โ™ ๏ธ

I can tell you put a lot of work into this! Loved the comedy throughout. And the shots around different areas were nice - smart way to keep our attention even more. Would also love to hear the OG version of your song - simply amazing as always!

Courtney Walker

No โ€œlong napโ€ jokes ๐Ÿ˜ญ

TR

The song turned out great. Love the video. It was worth it. Things I learned: Rod is real! Who knew? Joel got in his cardio that filming day. Joel went outside. Whaaa? No notes from me for a change. Funny, entertaining and musical.

Cas

This video really reminds me of your singing experiments!!๐Ÿ‘ I liked how you filmed in different places๐Ÿ’Ÿ๐Ÿ’– Great job on the video!! Thanks so much for all the time you spent working on it๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŽถ

Bookdragon 43

Ahhh this reminds me so much of the experiment videos from way back. Made my heart happy!! No notes

Shauna

Loved it! X

Hayley

And Iโ€™m so proud of you, as always โค๏ธ - your #1 โ€œmomโ€ fan ๐Ÿฅฐ

Lisa Hontschik

Iโ€™m definitely over-sensitive, so if you guys feel good about it, stand by it! I did notice and appreciate that you didnโ€™t show a noose. And Rod definitely helps - Rod always helps ๐Ÿ˜‰โค๏ธ

Lisa Hontschik

This reminds me a lot of early Joel videos, and I love it! I'm happy to see excited about being more creative and about making music! I really want to hear the song in full 'Joel-style'. ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ˜Š

Amanda ๐Ÿ–ค

Daniel cheated, hardly moved....Jack was hopping. Yes, please let's hear the song. I understand why you wanted to go this route. It is a wonderful and quite impressive fete. Thank you for all the effort. You are still missing something in your song, Joel. Love never dies, it never goes away. Love is eternal. Remember that, it's stronger and greater than the fear you sing about, it's aliveโœŒ๏ธโœŒ๏ธโœŒ๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Gayle

It's definitely a type of video I want to do! I wanna find more videos where I get to make a good song, whatever it is :)

Joel Berghult

I wanted to try a dark joke in there, but didn't tie a knot or anything. I'll think about it. I think Rod being there smiling and waving takes a lot of the edge off hehe

Joel Berghult

This entire thing is amazing. It's funny and nerdy and musically intriguing. A lot of work it may have been, but the fun and passion clearly shines through, and was definitely worth waiting for. I would absolutely love to see a "normal" version of it too :)

Amanda-Leigh

I just like watching you go nerd, no matter if it is musicnerd or technerd.

Kinga Konyecsik

Freaking love the song! Definitely want a โ€œpure Joelโ€ versionโ€ฆ This whole video concept was incredible. Now that youโ€™ve cracked the code, maybe you can do a series? I guess see how this video performs, but this was very creative, very entertaining and well worth the effort. โค๏ธ

Lisa Hontschik

I absolutely love the intro, you are the most natural Iโ€™ve ever seen you, itโ€™s awesome! Iโ€™m still watching, but one noteโ€ฆ the hanging bit is pretty dark - a bit too dark, I think. Iโ€™d skip/redo that small part.

Lisa Hontschik

(And let me know any things that could be improved since we still have time for small changes

Joel Berghult

Excited to hear what you think! This was a LOT of work lmaoooooo
