- Hey guys, this is my reaction to hearing and seeing Pentatonix- Daft Punk For the first time!!
WE HIT A THOUSAND SUBSCRIBERS, LETS DANCE. But seriously, thank you all so much for the support you've shown me, lets keep building a community that supports one another in everything!
@PTXofficial @PentatonixVEVO @AviKaplanMusic @daftpunk #cover #coversong #viral #youtube #acapella #trending #goodvibes
Also so sorry for my terrible dancing - Hudba
IM SORRY I MISPRONOUNCED HER NAME :(
Her name is kirstin but she is also known has kirstie
Just remember thirsty
It's okay... it's a learning curve! We all had to go through it. Just remember, Kirstie like thirsty, and you'll be fine.
S'ok. We know who you mean, but we are picky Pentaholics.
No worries, most people do. You got it now.
Bohemian Rhapsody will blow your mind. Carol of the Bells too
When Kirstie came in, I just giggled because I knew how you would respond. So cute.
Kirstie wrote a song with Kevin (beat boxer) called Water. It's recorded at their 2016 performance at Popspring, last song on the video, which you can find on this platform. Kirstie shines like a diamond.
It's an amazing song and & performance! That entire video is awesome! 💖
Pentaholic here. I love your enthusiasm. There's SO MUCH MORE...the spin-offs and side projects, too. You're going to have so much fun...well, it's almost unbelievable. They're ALL so talented...it's breathtaking. Oh yeah, this won a Grammy.
Has Kevin been in any competitions you ask? Well yes, but not for beatboxing! He's also accomplished on Sax and Cello and in 2009 came in 2nd out of over 400 in a competition to collaborate with world renowned cellist Yo-Yo Ma.
Love the reaction!!! Keep ‘em coming! If you really want a PTX song you can vacuum to, check out their 90’s Dance Medley! If you’re a Kirstie fan you will def love this one!!
KIRSTY!
RHYMES WITH THIRSTY!😂
❣ ***THERE ARE LITERALLY NO WORDS IN MY ENGLISH VOCABULARY, THAT CAN DESCRIBE THIS GROUP!!!*** ❣ I have also come to the conclusion, that Mitch is an Alien, from the planet of WTF 🙃 😊🙃 Enjoyed your reaction!
Seeing how much you love Kirstie, I suggest Wizard of Ahhhs and Say Something. Can't wait to see the Avi solo reactions!!!
Fun reaction! It's actually Kirstie - rhymes with "thirsty". :-)
If you want songs that have more of Kirstie, check out Say Something or Shallow or one she wrote call Be My Eyes.
Has their beatboxer entered any competitions? Well, let’s see…..he played Carnegie Hall, twice…..once on saxophone and once on cello. He developed a skill called Cello Boxing…..that’s how PTX discovered him on his viral video. All this while graduating pre-med from Yale. Lucky for us he chose a musical career instead of a medical one! PTX won their first Grammy for this. Their second Grammy was for, “Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy”…..an actual song with no words, performed by a group with no instruments…..go figure! SO much in store for you to discover! Can’t wait to share this journey with you!
They are the GREATEST!!
Your enthusiasm is infectious. I am smiling ear to ear knowing the journey that lies before you.
Beginners Guide to Pentatonix might be a good next step. Will give you some idea of who these guys are individually and provides a compilation of short snips from various songs. Don’t be put off by people panicking about spoilers. They are very short snips to just to illustrate individuals singing talents. Give yourself some time to dig into the catalog of covers and originals and then you might enjoy watching the Sing Off performances 1-12 with judges comments. We will enjoy this journey right along with you. Cheers Matt!
I 💯agree with you on the fact that his enthusiasm is infectious! Seeing and hearing the joy you get as you discover the greatest a cappella group on the planet (IMO) makes my ❤️ happy. Keep the PTX reactions coming, excited to be here for your journey ❤️
Don't watch it if you don't want to get spoiled! The Beginners Guide has snippets of over 50:songs of them in it. Here is a link to a video that introduces them without their music czcams.com/video/4zkD0j926kA/video.html
Kevin is a true Renaissance man - He started the piano at age 4, the cello at age 6, and alto saxophone at age 10. At 12 years old, he was selected as the principal saxophonist of the United States Collegiate Wind Band and toured Europe during the summer for three weeks. He soloed and performed in a piano trio at Carnegie Hall as the winner of the American Fine Arts Festival, and soloed a second time on alto saxophone for PBS’s special "From the Top at Carnegie Hall". Spent a year in China learning Mandarin and researching neurobiology. Graduate of Yale. And #1 on his list, he is husband of Leigh and father of Kaia.
If you like this, try their original Track, Love Again!
You got that right!!
One of my favourites!
Oh, by your song choices so far, you should check out Radioactive, Mad World, and Image. All PTX is at the A level or grater. Thanks for another great reaction!! 😁😁😎 *yeah, we settled for Pentatonix.
I don't think he'll ever live that down...
This is 1st Grammy win. Kirsty ( sounds like thirsty ). They are all just insanely talented and together a force of awesomeness.
Next up Bohemian Rhapsody. Strap in. Kevin is considered a musical wonder. He beatboxes and plays brilliant cello,at the same time in
“Say Something.” Which features Kirsty. If they use an instrument you will see it. Otherwise it’s all them
Watch their original love again if you liked daft punk. Kevin (beat boxer) and Avi kill it
And Avi & Kevin were the ones who wrote it.
+1
Love Again doesn't get the notice it should. It is one of favorites.
They won their first Grammy for this. A lot of their videos are "like in a Zoom meeting".
Not only does Avi have a solo channel, so does Kirsty, though she hasn't posted in a while. Kevin also has his own channel, and he will blow you away with his technical talent. Scott and Mitch have a channel called Super Fruit, which has a lot of funny stuff, but they also perform some absolutely great stuff.
Mitch also has a seperate you tube it's called Messer. Only a few videos uploaded though.
Kirsty just had a baby girl so I bet her time is taken up pretty much she will be back with more I am sure !
Scott has his own channel just like all the others... if you go back far enough in it, you'll still find the videos he posted back in high school of the trio.
Yowza! I have no idea who Daft Punk is (are?), and I'm not very familiar with PTX, but this video is fabulous! I need to go watch it full screen. And I can't get enough of Avi's voice. So yummy. Thanks for the introduction to this. And if you really want to vacuum all day, you're welcome at my house.
I was so excited to see you do this reaction, knowing how much you loved this group and you'd get to see them do something near impossible. They won a Grammy for this, in fact the Grammy people had to open a new genre for them. They also filmed this themselves and used Avi and Kevin's kitchen counter and a closet to film in. The budget was only $400. There was of course production and major editing added. I' think you should check out Love Again. It's an original and has a heavy edm beat like Daft Punk.
I am so enjoying your reactions to this group!! So many reactors nod along and appreciate the talent but don't really show so much emotion and truly relish the performance for the feels it gives, which is what I live for in reactions; someone who obviously feels the same way I did when I first heard it. Your face when they went into Better Faster Stronger was just as good as any Mitch-slap I've ever seen. Keep 'em coming please!!!
there is a video of a live green room private performance of this Daftpunk medley, just them filmed on a phone camera, it's INSANE, you need to check it out, only that really makes you truly realize how incredibly talenteded they are. post-production? they don't even need it.
Ha! The Pentaholics found you and blew up your channel! Congratulations!!! Keep ‘em coming! Anything you choose will be great, and I’m totally here for it! 💛xo
Has Kevin been in any beatboxing competitions, you ask? Probably not exactly. But...
He's an overachiever from an overachiever family. Dad is a physician (specifically, psychiatrist). Mom is a nurse. Kevin had a high school education that encouraged/pushed him to always be his best.
You can find a CZcams vid of him performing saxophone at Carnegie Hall when he was 17.
He has an undergrad degree from Yale which includes all his pre-med requirements plus some music courses and East Asian Studies. He's just never taken time (so far) to actually go to Med school. He speaks English, Spanish, and Mandarin Chinese. As a Yale student, he went on a multipurpose goodwill mission to Communist China, and while there he invented or developed the art of Celloboxing. Back in the States, he also picked up a Music degree from Berklee college. Right about the time that he graduated from Berklee and released his first Celloboxing vid ("Julie-O"), Pentatonix picked him up.
Here's one of his solo vids, where he engineers and loops tracks while performing live. Just tempting you to watch it. :)
czcams.com/video/IGjg193h4Ok/video.html
Yeah, but what does he do in his free time? 🙃
Well, he's a 7th Day Adventist, and PTX doesn't schedule work or concerts that would violate his Sabbath. So yup, he does have some "free" time. One of the purposes of the Sabbath is rest and recuperate.
I once sarcastically commented to a reactor that we almost lost Kevin to medicine, and what a loss for music that would have been. He answered that Kevin would probably have been quite comfortable beatboxing while performing brain surgery. Pretty much sums Kevin up, I think!
And he got married in 2019, and his daughter, Kaia, was born in 2021. So he’s a husband and father, too….
Pentaholic here reporting in. I'm very much enjoying your reactions. Any song you choose will blow you away, there are no bad ones. Please sprinkle some of Avi's solo work in, too! I believe Charlotte has made some great suggestions in previous comments. His whole new album is 🔥🔥🔥
That was fun, keep going!!!
Thanks for your enthusiastic reaction! As others have said in the comments, Pentatonix won a recording contract as part of their prize for winning the 3rd season of the "Sing Off" but were dropped after a week and told that acapella was just a novelty that would not sell; no one would continue to be interested in listening to acapella music. They continued to post videos on their own on their website and millions of fans worldwide listened. They scraped up $400 between them and made this video in the Kitchen and closet of the apartment that Kevin and Avi shared and it won them their first Grammy award and opened more doors for them (there is a cool video of Scott's acceptance speech for this on You Tube). If you are "thirsty for more Kirstie", check out her lead in their cover of "Say Something" which also features some amazing celloboxing from Kevin. One of the other commenters here (DougRay Phillips) shared the link for Kevin Olusola's cover of "Down" on his solo channel--that one will blow you away!
"So good..." Well, others thought so too. Because this was their first Grammy award. But not their last. They brought their "Grammy Award" game.
I’ve just watched your first three Pentatonix reactions back to back. I always love watching someone fall down the rabbit hole. Your reactions are especially enjoyable, because you have so much energy and get so engaged with the music.
Time for me to get to bed, but I’ll be back tomorrow to catch up. Subscribed.
Imagine, Run to You, Amazing Grace, Say Something ........
If you want to get to know them better, I recommend you watch the CZcams video "The Beginner's Guide to Pentatonix". It'll answer a lot of your questions, plus it will give you snippets of other songs they have done. I see you liked the mash-up at the end. They love to do mash ups and love to combine songs, also the medley "90's Dance Medley" is a good example. They also like to do snippets all put together of the best songs by specific artists. They are called "The Evolution of...." Music, Beyonce, MJ, Ariana Grande, and Rihanna. Keep those PTX reactions coming! Thank you!
I’m upvoting this because I think every new reactor should watch the beginners guide to Pentatonix.
Don't watch it if you don't want to get spoiled! The Beginners Guide has snippets of over 50:songs of them in it. Here is a link to a video that introduces them without their music czcams.com/video/4zkD0j926kA/video.html
@@schuhschrank947 I watched this one and I think it is a great addition to the one I recommend if you don't want spoilers. Certainly, more up to date. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll pass it on.
@@celiachristman104 ❤
The Wizard of Ahhs Todrick Hall feat Pentatonix. Best mash-ups!
Before everyone else gets you it's Kirsty
... rhymes with thirsty 🫣
If you want to see the group from its beginnings, you can watch their performances on season 3 of the Sing Off. Episode 12 is the one that really propelled them according to a lot of opinions. Avi and Kevin joined the existing trio of Scott, Kirstie, and Mitch because you had to have at least five members to compete on the show.
The first of their three Grammy Awards (to date) ... Best Arrangement, Instrumental or A Cappella - "Daft Punk"
Your joy in this is just about the same I experience with this song. Pentatonix is just too good!
Great reaction. Try watching "Gold", Keira cover. Its live and stripped back. ENJOY. Kevin Osceola The beatboxer has his own channel too. I like his cover of Harry Styles, Sign of the Times
Such a fun reaction to watch!! I could totally predict each time you were going to lose it… 🤯😂 Mitch, Kirstie and Kevin also have awesome solo stuff!! I recommend their Popspring 2016 (It’s live, 3 originals and their Evol. of Michael Jackson) and Amazing Grace. PRETTY PLEASE?! And as another commenter mentioned you definitely need to stay away from their Can You Feel the Love Tonight? cover- I don’t think your heart could stand it as Kirstie is A+++ gorgeous in it 😉.
I’m sure others have said already but , yes they got their first Grammy with this. They made themselves in about $400 n a closet and kitchen counter.
There are some private videos of them doing this per request. ALL the rips, breaks and such are just as good with no editing
For a good live performance watch their PopSpring 2016. It has 3 originals (Cracked, Can't Sleep Love (my favorite), Water) and their Evolution of Michael Jackson. The video is about 15 minutes long. You can also break it up.
It's SO fun watching another Pentaholic be born ^.^
I HIGHLY HIGHLY suggest checking out Superfruit - it's a channel Mitch and Scott created a long time ago for more silly stuff, chats, and their own compilations/covers. An amazing one to start with would be their Frozen Medley... which Kirstie joins them for ~.^ It showcases their fun personalities as well as their raw, unedited talent! And it's utterly ridiculous lol. DO IT! (and doooon't skip the bloopers at the end)
Yes, as I understand it, with this song Pentatonix became the first acapella group to win a Grammy (along with their off camera/off mike producer/arranger, co-founder and all around buddy Ben Bram). Take care all.
Following your perfect Mitch-slapped face in Hallelujah I had to see your reaction to this amazing acapella (!) song. Glad you were a Daft Punk fan before so you could really appreciate the transformation this song brings. Great reaction, keep them coming :)
I have been enjoying your reaction to this group. Just one correction. Kirstie’s name is Kirs-tie, rhymes with thirsty. It is not Kristy. Everyone makes that mistake early in their journey with PTX. Keep the reactions coming. They won a Grammy for this one and many feel they should win their 4th one for their cover of The Prayer. You should try it next.💕💕
This was my first PTX song. I played it over and over, and it never failed to lift my mood. Subscribed for more PTX.
LOVE your reaction to this song!
I recommend Change on the Rise by Avi Kaplan
Try their Radioactive cover and their Love Again original. They have over 40 originals as well as a few hundred covers. There is only one PTX.
Hello from Nova Scotia! I've been listening to Pentatonix from the very beginning! Great reaction!✌❤🇨🇦
Watch some of their "evolution of" videos to see them do amazing live performances.
I recommend "Mad World". I often listen to it on headphones, because although it does not have the most advanced video production - the way they made it, it's pure audio enjoyment and harmonies. A very active-listening song indeed.
PS: And Matt, the new bass, sounds really great up there while Scott is covering the bass for him. So if you want to hear Matt's higher register, there it is, one of the best songs with him.
And if I would add one more that I think is at the peak of auditive enjoyment: "Shallow" it is. I don't know why, but those stand out to me, when listening on headphones and just letting them massage my ears with the audio these songs have.
If you think Kevin's beat boxing is insane, wait until you see him cello boxing! My fav PTX cover is Shallow (Lady Gaga and Brad Cooper) where Kev shows off his insane talent and Kirsty (rhymes with thirsty) leads. If you have a Kirsty crush now, wait until you see her singing Shallow!😃❤
Didn't know they did "Shallow" thx!!
Watching you mouth all the words was the most fun!!! I watch this video over and over. It’s a masterclass in acapella.
Take a look at their cover of "Radioactive" featuring Lindsey Sterling and you get to see Kevin cello-boxing.
Kevin's besought during Avi's solo, Outstanding!!!
They made this in 1 night at Kevin and Avi's apartment. They went on to win their first Grammy on this.
Hey won a Grammy for this
Dude watching your reactions is so much fun, you can tell you're really feeling the music .
If you love Kirstie you need to listen to "Be My Eyes". Please keep watching their stuff. I could listen to them all day.
For a Kirstin song, I like Water from Popspring.
I highly recommend Kevin's cover of Down by Marian Hill on his solo channel... His cello boxing is phenomenal on that song!!glad you found PTX!!🙂also,Avi has an amazing solo career also,check out his song Change on the Rise.his bass will rock your world✌out!🙂
You are just sooo adorable…yhank you for being you!❤
90s Dance Medley and Havana
It’s wonderful to feel your joy. You may find that PTX’s covers are better than the originals. I recall Scott saying at the Grammy Awards that they filmed this in a closet! Unbelievable!
Welcome to the PTX rabbit hole! Great reaction to a stellar performance! I love the way you compensate for the interruptions by rewnding the video just enough to draw your viewers back into the vibe!
Fifgen Films did the video. They did several of PTX videos. Amazing work.
This brought them their first Grammy. Filmed in a closet, edited on a kitchen table. Total cost - $400, for a ring light, software, and makeup, mostly.
Bohemian Rhapsody has be next!
Hello Matts Reacts. Glad that you are doing another PTX song This is Grammy #1 for Pentatonix. This was done on a budget recorded in a closet to get the audio, filmed in their kitchen, with them doing their own makeup for about 200-400 dollars. Please do keep going - almost 300 songs - you are only at the surface of what Pentatonix can do. They are masters of their craft. Remember this is A Capella - including the electronic re-mix sounds. BTW - there is a live video of them doing this, standing around in what looks like a living room. You know their names now - well done - Kirsite is short for Kirstin and is pronounced so that it rhymes with thirsty. Suggest Bohemian Rhapsody next. Glad that you are a fan now - are you a Pentaholic yet?. Love that comment - they brought their A Game - no their triple A Game. Kevin is a master beat boxer for sure.
If you want Kirstie in tentacles......PTX original.....Love Again. Another mind blowing song.
The beatboxer Kevin Olusola (KO) does music on his own and one of the best is "Down". Have a look! Great reaction. You're having so much fun, looks like you could blow a gasket. Breathe. LOL
Great reaction! You genuinely enjoyed the video!!! PTX IS AWESOME!!❤️
I think you would really enjoy Home Free's "Butts Remix."
Loved your reaction to this and the chair dancing was great too!😄
Welcome to the rabbit-hole that is Pentatonix!!!!!!!!!!
You just made my day, your enjoyment is contagious 👏👏👏
Priceless reactions ❤
"Won an award." The Grammy for production which was done in about one week on a budget of $400 using Avi Kaplan's closet for their sound booth.
The Grammy was actually for arrangement, and "A Cappella" was added to the category specifically for them to participate. Here's a video shot by Scott's parents while they watched PTX win. czcams.com/video/2BNaVcMMJvM/video.html
04:20 You started describing their outfits, so this comment became required:
Mitch: I'm going to wear this old sweater.
Scott: I'm cosplaying as Jack Frost!
Kirstin: I'm going all out with the wig and makeup!
Kevin: These goggles really fit the vibe we're going for.
Avi: You guys are wearing clothes?
They won a Grammy for this arrangement.
If you haven't yet, you should try Mary Did You Know. Beautiful and moving. Also so very simple yet grand.
The color shift in the video makes their eyes look even stranger. 😁
Your face during harder faster stronger was awesome!
If you want to see an original of theirs that has a similar feel to this check out their video for Love Again. The song and video have the same vibe. Avi ,easing and Mitch kill it.Also if you want to see them do daft punk live there’s a private performance that’s off mic and and shows that they can sound exactly the same without any studio help. Yes this video won them their first of three Grammys. They actually filmed this video for only $400 in Avi and Kevin’s apartment at the time and recorded it in a closet.
Subscribed. You’re great so far. Love your energetic and positive vibes. I hope you don’t disappear after a few months like other reactors…
New subscriber here for more Pentatonix!!
For a song that spotlights Kirsty AND show off yet another a capella group, check out Vocatave's Disney Love Medley
The French military marching band performed this arrangement for a national holiday where the US president was a guest. The French PM was so excited and kept looking at the president like, " Don't you know that an American group arranged this?" PM Macron was really into the arrangement.
Definitely check out their "Love Again". It's amazing.
Fun reaction!!!!
Seems like you had great fun doing this one. I think I had as much fun watching you. Thanks for posting. Which one are you “settling for” next? I’ll be watching!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
You really MUST check out 90's Dance Medley. You will be even more in love with Kirstie. Prepare yourself. SERIOUSLY !!!
booboolu for sure this one is one of the greatest, but u got so so much to hear, and each one have their own music. booboolu love ur reactions and keep them coming the more u do the more us PTX will subscribe to ur site. just saying God Bless
If you love Kirstin so much prepare yourself for "Can You Feel the Love tonight" 🤣 and don't forget the Xanax 🤪😇
The Five Faces of New Pentaholics
1. The most common is the Mitch Slapped. Commonly found when Mitch is heard for the first time in Hallelujah, The Prayer, Can You Feel the Love Tonight, and doing Aha! at the Star Vista.
2. The Wide Eyed Look of Disbelief. Normally found when you hear their Wall of Sound. Found when listening to Mary Did You Know, Imagine, and Mad World.
3. The I Didn’t Want It to End face. Most commonly found after listening to the 90s Dance Medley. It can also be found after listening to all their medleys and evolutions.
4. The Teary Eyed Look. This is commonly found when listening to an emotional song of theirs or just the sheer beauty of their work. Commonly found when listening to Mary Did You Know, Hallelujah, Amazing Grace, Imagine, The Prayer and most especially Thank You.
5. The What Did I Just Hear Face. Happens when Pentatonix starts strong, or when you hear a really special note or Kevin sound. Is usually accompanied by rewinding the video or song to make sure your ears really heard what they heard. Those times are too many to list, but the most common rewind at the start moment is the beginning of Sound of Silence.
Yes ptx won a Grammy for this one x Thanks
Try Dance of the sugar plum fairies, a song without words done by a group without instruments, crazy.
I recommend beatboxer Kevin's KOver of Down by Marian Hill if you'd like to see more of what he can do. Thanks for the reaction
a lot of us say PTX don't do covers they do upgrades ;)
best upgrade to me is Gold [Kiara] they took a song i hated the sound of to a song i listen a lot too
