They did this in their kitchen and recorded in a closet. It was done for $400 and this was their first Grammy. They do this in concert and it is incredible to realize they do this at one shot live is mind boggling.
Yeah, how can these 3 NOT know that this "low-budget" video won a GRAMMY??? I cannot believe they never once mentioned it!!! I know nothing about Daft Punk. I assumed that this was all ONE song. I had no idea that Daft Punk is a group and that this was actually a MEDLEY!! WOW. Just WOW!! Pentatonix are really really good at putting medleys together in new and innovative ways. They did that at the sing off as well.
The reason it's low budget is because this is when they were dropped by their past label because they thought "PTX would make it". So PTX was like "we're gonna show them they're wrong !" So they made this. Recorded it in a closet and filmed it in a kitchen with a grand total of $400. They ended up winning a Grammy for it and getting signed with RCA Records!
The total budget was about $400, including about $50 for wardrobe/makeup. As Eric Pugh notes, the audio was recorded in a bedroom closet and the video was shot in Avi's kitchen. (Avi is the bass/guy with cornrows.)
They recorded this song in a bedroom closet and filmed it in Avi (bass) and Kevin's (beatboxer) kitchen. Scott bought the contacts right before they filmed it.
they did do Around The World.... Kirsten sang it under Television and then it was part of the ending - "we rock all night to the sun hey, around the world we're feeling so free, so give us one more time"
Wow, I'm finding this in 2020, and I've listened to this song so many times, but NEVER noticed Kirstie's first time singing Around the World. That's crazy.
Was gonna say it in the bohemian rhapsody video but welcome officially to the pentaholics, we are a strong fan base and watch ALL reactions, looking forward to see more ptx 😍
Small budget - the audio was recorded in a closet, and they ended up filming in somebody's kitchen, for like $400 :) Check out FifGen Films, they've done a number of PTX' videos (including this one). Anyway - really appreciate the commentary, and always glad to see new folks sucked in^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hjoining the Pentaholic family! (Also, David - they *did* do 'around the world' - Kirstie in the background during 'Television'. Step up yer game! :) )
Man, I love your Pentatonix reaction! It's a shame that you can't wear headphones and don't seem to have speakers that can really make you feel Avi''s bass! By the way, the video of this grammy winning medley was recorded in a closet :D I'll suggest Pentatonix - Evolution of MIcheal Jackson next!
Their videos have just so much talent and sense for choosing which songs they wanna sing and a harmony that comes along with their voices in different degrees of combinations
They recorded this in a closet and kitchen.! And won their first Grammy for this! :D (now they have 3!!) you were talking about how good their composition is and 2 of their Grammies is actually for their arrangement :) they're just the bomb aren't they!
Yes they did say around the world actually. In the section where avi is singing his solo of Television rules the nation, Kirstin is singing Around the world line at the same time. Go back and re-listen at about minute 3:00 you will hear her.
Great reaction! It's clear that you all love music, and appreciate what these guys are doing. They won their first of three Grammys for the arrangement of this. When they accepted it, Scott told the audience that they recorded it in the kitchen and filmed it in the closet of one of their apartments - and the audience all applauded! A couple of other videos to check out: PTX Evolution of Music (1500-2010s), PTX Can't Sleep Love (an original) and PTX Gold (Kiiera cover). There are many others - looking forward to more!
Roman!!! Hope you’re doing well!!! I love Pentatonix and just started watching reactions… and saw you! Mike says heeeyyyy and hope all is well! Cheers from the dirty bird days ✨🥂✨
They actually do a bit of around the world during Avi's part. Kirstie is singing it in the background while Avi is getting all up in that basement with those notes
David, yes, they included "Around the World." Listen to Kirstie in the background. She sings that phrase at least 3 times. Not a complete song or anything, but it's there. So sorry you didn't hear it! I was willing you to. I'm sure people have already told you that this arrangement got them their first Grammy. Loved your analytical reaction. Thank you!
They do say around the world twice at least. One time in the Avi Kevin solo part done by Kirstin (hard to notice) and another time at the very end by Kirstin again.
HEY GUYS MY FIRST TIME COMMENTING TO YOU THIS VIDEO EARNED THEM THEIR FIRST GRAMMY.... THEY RECORDED THIS IN A KITCHEN AND FILMED IN A CLOSET 400 DOLLARS BUDGET
Here is a link to the making of this video. The filming company of this video is FifGen. Their original shoot location fell through, so they had to improvise and filmed in part of the small apartment of Avi (bass) and Kevin (beat boxer) they share. The link has some pictures and you can see their refrigerator just off of the set. The "set" was "... black sheets and hung them in the room and covered the ceiling.," Bates said. "We made a 'black box' that was about 20 square feet." strobist.blogspot.com/2013/11/pentatonix-daft-punk-video-low-budget.html
I refuse to accept any reaction without the use of headphones. You cannot fully appreciate really any song without a good set of headphones especially any song with such a full bass as Avi.
SUPERFRUIT!!! Empire Medley, Beyonce, La La Land Medley, on and on and on and on..... PS.....I love the intelligent discussion! Seriously..the "Imagine" video is a life changer
Also they made this video in one of their kitchens and the "dark room" in a closet. This was definitely AFTER they were dropped (within a week) from the label (Sony) they won from the competition, and they had to resort to youtube. These guys worked from the bottom, and it doesnt help that their music is exclusively acapella (which isnt exactly popular)
I was impressed that PTX was able to beat box this level of complexity in music. Try to imagine Aerodynamic for gosh sakes! If they can do Daft, they can do any band.
They won a Grammy for this and during the acceptance speech they said that they filmed it in a bedroom closet and did the effects in their apartment kitchen. Love PTX so much. Sooo sad that Avi is stepping back from PTX. :'(
hi guys. Enjoyed you reaction video. Have you checked out Voctave. The Disney Love Medley with Kirsten (from Pentatonix) and her boyfriend. It's really good (14 million hits can't be bad). love to see your reaction.
If you want a video showcasing Mitch's talent, look no further than the live performance of "Aha!" in Singapore. If you want to do another superfruit reaction, Rihanna's Anti medley or my personal favorite, their medley for the show "Empire".
Yes it was low budget- I think they said they did it with about $400 and filmed the video in a kitchen and recorded the song in a closet. Aaaaaand then they won their first grammy for it. :) Ps. whats even cooler is that the song sounds almost exactly the same live- there's a video of them doing a private performance of it. czcams.com/video/tw4YCsHXKgI/video.html
You should check out Pentatodrix, which is Todrick Hall making fun of this video. Todrick is a long time friend of theirs, and he contacted them saying that he was really having a hard time figuring out all of the parts for it (which he did just by himself). Plus there's a video of Superfruit reacting to Pentatodrix.

They recorded in a closet and filmed in a kitchen and it still turned out amazing and won a Grammy. Props to them
Hana Song wrong
Recorded on a closet
Filmed on a kitchen
Spektre PSP WTF I could have sworn I wrote they filmed it in a kitchen. Huh.
Yeah, you just edited it 😂
You don't get me with that one I know what I saw 😁
To really appreciate Avi and Kevin you need head phones or ear buds. Please listen to it again.
or reaaaaaaly good woofers !

alex martinez which label was so incredible DUMB to drop such an outstanding group of singers? 🙄
@@TheOnlyEpsilonAlpha Sony Records
@@EdithKadar369 it make sense
The problem of not having earphones is that you miss the little details, Kristin sings "around the world" at least four times!!!!
i think five times.... three while Avi's doing his 'television, rules the nation' lines and twice in the last part...
I'm pretty sure they said that they recorded in a closet in and filmed it in the kitchen
Eric Pugh exactly right. Recorded in a bedroom closet and filmed in Avi and Kevin's kitchen
And they won a grammy xD
Incredible! You just need a little ingenuity, hard work... and a lot of talent...
$400 (that's what they said) + a LOT of talent = Grammy.
And yes, recorded in a closet, filmed in a dinette of an apartment.
And Scott said they did it all on Mitch's iPad.
The total budget was about $400, including about $50 for wardrobe/makeup. As Eric Pugh notes, the audio was recorded in a bedroom closet and the video was shot in Avi's kitchen. (Avi is the bass/guy with cornrows.)
They actually do say "Around The World", Kirstie and Mitch sing it near the end when the screen splits into 25 different sections.
Also, Kirstin is singing it behind "Television Rules the Nation".
They recorded this song in a bedroom closet and filmed it in Avi (bass) and Kevin's (beatboxer) kitchen. Scott bought the contacts right before they filmed it.
they did do Around The World.... Kirsten sang it under Television and then it was part of the ending - "we rock all night to the sun hey, around the world we're feeling so free, so give us one more time"
pentatonix imagine cover. one of their newer ones.
evolution of michael Jackson.
Kirstie actually sings "Around the World" five times: 3:00 (3x), 3:55 (1x) & 4:02 (1x) (times are for the original video)
Wow, I'm finding this in 2020, and I've listened to this song so many times, but NEVER noticed Kirstie's first time singing Around the World. That's crazy.
Was gonna say it in the bohemian rhapsody video but welcome officially to the pentaholics, we are a strong fan base and watch ALL reactions, looking forward to see more ptx 😍

R Etset They also sing Around The World in the freak-out at the end...
She does say around the world a couple times.
I'm having trouble believing Scott or Mitch were ever in the closet...
Man, I love your Pentatonix reaction! It's a shame that you can't wear headphones and don't seem to have speakers that can really make you feel Avi''s bass! By the way, the video of this grammy winning medley was recorded in a closet :D
I'll suggest Pentatonix - Evolution of MIcheal Jackson next!
Pentatonix - Gold, please
Im loving these pentatonix reactions! keep them up guys!
I am LOVING your reactions!! Also, they do say "around the world" in the background a few times at the end during the crazy mashup!
You can hear the bass way better if you use headphones :)
Just an FYI, it's often hard to hear the bass without headphones
Please please do their Imagine cover next! It's so amazing!
They filmed it in the kitchen and won their first grammy for this. They already had a huge following before this.
I love your discussions :) You guys are always well informed, attentive, and pay respect to the hard work put into the different videos. Love it!
do you have good speakers? or headphones? it's hard to really hear the bass without those (and with the daft punk medley you NEED to hear the bass)
Great reaction! here are a few Pentatonix suggestions:
Hallelujah
Imagine
Say Something
Kirstie did sing "Around the world" when Avi was singing "Television rules the nation".
Their videos have just so much talent and sense for choosing which songs they wanna sing and a harmony that comes along with their voices in different degrees of combinations
They recorded this in a closet and kitchen.! And won their first Grammy for this! :D (now they have 3!!) you were talking about how good their composition is and 2 of their Grammies is actually for their arrangement :) they're just the bomb aren't they!
I subscribed purely for PTX, you're reactions are relaly cool and this one went into so much!
Yes they did say around the world actually. In the section where avi is singing his solo of Television rules the nation, Kirstin is singing Around the world line at the same time. Go back and re-listen at about minute 3:00 you will hear her.
Listen again! They do say "Around the world" right at the end, Kirstie and Mitch sing it underneath Scott.
Great reaction! It's clear that you all love music, and appreciate what these guys are doing. They won their first of three Grammys for the arrangement of this. When they accepted it, Scott told the audience that they recorded it in the kitchen and filmed it in the closet of one of their apartments - and the audience all applauded!

The fact that this song won a Grammy convinces me that anything's possible, as well as satisfying me being a die hard Daft Punk fan.
Sound of silence and hallelujah and amazing grace
Roman!!! Hope you’re doing well!!! I love Pentatonix and just started watching reactions… and saw you! Mike says heeeyyyy and hope all is well! Cheers from the dirty bird days ✨🥂✨

I LOVE PENTATONIX 💙💙💙 THEY ARE THE BEST
Kristie does sing "Around the world" at 5:21. It´s just background vocals so it´s hard to hear (specially with Avi´s lead) but it´s there!!!
There are way too many Pentatonix covers and originals to list, so you just have to react to them all.....
react to pentatonix singing aha live at Singapur!!!!
Yassss and thats why they won a Grammy for this! Great reaction more PTX please lol
They do say around the world twice at least. One time in the Avi Kevin solo part done by Kirstin (hard to notice) and another time at the very end by Kirstin again.
They did sing Around The World, though - when Avi is singing Television Rules The Nation, listen for Kirstie in the background singing it!
Love your reaction, they won a Grammy for this one
loved this reaction!
please react to "hallelujah" and "gold" by ptx!!
We need to get you guys some headphones. Mostly for Avi.
Great video!!
Kirstin sings the line "around the world" about three or four times. Another listen through and you'll hear it :)
The do say "Around the World"! It's in the big mashup at the end. Check at 6:15 , then again a few seconds later.
you guys truly looked like you enjoyed this as much as me
They did say "around the world", while the bass is singing "television rules the nation", you can spot Kristie, the girl, singing a part of that song
Kirstin was singing "Around the World" during "Television rules the Nation"

around the world is actully in there! kirstie sings it in tv rules the nation part and again in the end!
please react to Superfruit Empire medley or freestyle rap challenge
Did you do Pentatonix -Love Again?
I refuse to accept any reaction without the use of headphones. You cannot fully appreciate really any song without a good set of headphones especially any song with such a full bass as Avi.
They did sing "Around the World". You need to listen again. It's in the background while Avi is singing "Television Rules the Nation".
Please do the Todrick Hall video ft. Them in it THE WIZARD OF AAHHHS, and then do Todrick Hall's 4 BEYONCÉ. You'll love it.
please do their gold cover next!
they still say "don't forget to subscribe " 😄
"He looks like a Robot."
Well- yeah. Thats the whole point of Daft Punk. Music made by "Robots" is their image.
Listening to pentatonix on laptop speakers??? C'MOooON!
I luv that u hav Mione next to Harley on the wall
Please react to the private performance of this, is amazing
BY THE WAY THEY HAVE THREE, THATS 3 GRAMMIES NOW NOT TO SHABBY HUH....... JOE R.
SUPERFRUIT!!! Empire Medley, Beyonce, La La Land Medley, on and on and on and on.....
PS.....I love the intelligent discussion!
Seriously..the "Imagine" video is a life changer
I like your reaction...
The spontaneous group white dancing around 3:20ish.
They are just a good LIVE.
Also they made this video in one of their kitchens and the "dark room" in a closet. This was definitely AFTER they were dropped (within a week) from the label (Sony) they won from the competition, and they had to resort to youtube. These guys worked from the bottom, and it doesnt help that their music is exclusively acapella (which isnt exactly popular)
Great reaction!! Listen with better speakers plugged in...you'd be blown away by Avi and KO
The middle guy reminds me of a Michael Weston undercover character on Burn Notice.
I was impressed that PTX was able to beat box this level of complexity in music. Try to imagine Aerodynamic for gosh sakes! If they can do Daft, they can do any band.
They won a Grammy for this and during the acceptance speech they said that they filmed it in a bedroom closet and did the effects in their apartment kitchen. Love PTX so much. Sooo sad that Avi is stepping back from PTX. :'(
Yes this won a Grammy for them and they did it in Avi's kitchen and a closet for $400
I would love to see what y'all think of a group called Steam Powered Giraffe.
Kirsten layers Around the world under the coda. listen for it ;p
hi guys. Enjoyed you reaction video. Have you checked out Voctave. The Disney Love Medley with Kirsten (from Pentatonix) and her boyfriend. It's really good (14 million hits can't be bad). love to see your reaction.

Not a fan of Daft Punk off hand but this is still arguably my favorite thing from PTX
Please react to "Royal Family | FRONTROW | World of Dance Los Angeles 2015"
