Something I found today. Hope you were amused

It's SFW

from the site:
The Voca People is an ensemble of 8 talented musician-actors; 3 female singers that bring the very best female sounds (alt, mezzo, soprano) and 3 male singers (bass, baritone, tenor. In addition there are 2 beat box artists that create extraordinary human beat box sounds and are considered to be the best performers in their field.

Wow, I don't know if amused is the word to say, more frightening then amusing. But interesting, thanks for sharing.

What do you get when you cross Blue Man Group and a cappella? I love both, but this does not create a multiplier effect. I liked the first 30 seconds the best, then they turned into the King's Singers, then the Swingle Singers, then basically any collegiate a cappella group.

Ah... no. First, they are vocal percussionists, not beatboxers. Second, there are many better VPers and beatboxers. They are perfectly fine, however.

That clip was way too short, I was expecting an epic show of something or other, at least for seven minutes of entertainment.

I went ahead and found this:

Ah, I see what you mean there; I'm about a minute and 30 seconds through the video I posted, and I'm already starting to grow weary of the innovative sound that was presented throughout the opening, but now has evolved into little more than showtunes.

Do not let Redlemon catch you getting your a capella terminology wrong. He will fuck you up.

I got bored of it pretty quickly, if I'm honest. There's potential, but nothing really captivating there.
