No autotune, no instruments, no adjustments. PTX makes a point of never recording anything they can't reproduce exactly live :) Kevin (beatboxer) plays the cello in some of their productions, but it's always very visible. Do check out their cover of Hallelujah...both the official version as well as the live version....you'll see (hear)
Definitely check out the live Hallelujah. It's my favorite to show people who can't handle the idea of PTX recreating their performances live.
There are always some adjustments in full studio recordings. Check the article from their sound mixer (it was a while ago, though). However, he said it is a little cleaning up and making it a bit tighter to make the expected studio quality sound, but they are not going into synthetic sound range.
Yes, they sing their material live with the same high quality, but that doesn't mean that sound engineers do nothing in their studio recordings. Their tracks get fussed over by experts for EQ and ambiance, as detailed in that article.
@@TheSuperEmail Thanks. Of course PTX go through the same post-production polishing that any other group, artisit or band go through. It bugs me a little when some PTX fans act like their studio stuff is somehow the raw recording maybe with a little reverb. There will always be a little pitch correction as nobody is actually perfect perfect. It might be tiny imperceivable (to the human ear) changes, but they will be there. I think pitch correction software like autotune gets a bad wrap as people think it's just used on people that can't sing, when often it's just used as a polishing tool, rather than turning something bad into something good.
No doubt PTX are very talented singers and sound amazing live, but it doesn't sound like a mastered, fully EQ'd polished audio recording (even if it's in tune) and nor should it, nobody does. Some fans just get a bit carried away and are in denial about what goes on in the recording process as they somehow see it as taking away from the groups talent, when all it does is make it a polished package.
@@stuarcari when I read that article, I was surprised how much products was that guy using and how much editing goes to each song. I also did see a video where the author claims that they do some lipsynch on concerts on some of their songs (at least for later tours). Something that they use it only for the parts that are most straining for voice because their concert schedule is so intense they wouldn't be able to rest their voices enough and that they want to give their fans a best experience. Not sure how much truth that is, though - my relationship with music is only in "like", "dislike", "don't mind it" and similar terms :) . Again, the person doesn't deny they are talented or that they can't do that live, if needed - simply that they usually do that to save voices (like partial lipsynch on 6 to 8 songs from 20 or so in concert), and that they also use other methods - e.g. in most cases Mitch tries not to go too high or so.
If you want to be completely blown away, you should listen to PTX's rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody.
Can't wait to hear it! 😀
Definitely. Heard them do this live. They are just as good live as on video. Welcome to the Pentatonix rabbit hole. Your minds are about to be blown. The bassist is the newest member, but you will enjoy the original member also.
absolutely 👍
Hey! They unblocked our video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
@@dicodec Live version please
I would love to see more PTX reactions from you two!
Of course! 😀
I agree!!!
Definitely their version of Bohemian Rhapsody, the Daft Punk medley, and the live Singapore version of Aha at least...of course, they were from before Avi left and Matt came in to replace him...
@@dicodec they just released their cover of Mad World.
Hey! They unblocked our video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Some info about the members:
Kevin - the beatboxer and also a tenor though he has only a few solos
Scott - the blond guy that started the song, he has the most solos in the group and will be singing in like half of the songs they have, he is a baritone so that makes his voice the best fit for mainstream music, he has an amazing range because he can cover both bass notes and go all the way into falsetto
Matt - the guy you liked, he is a baritone/bass, has a few solos but you usually hear him doing the bass line
Kirstie - the only girl, mezzo-soprano, I agree with you she has a very unique voice, didn't use to have many solos because she was conscious of her voice but since vocally she has improved the most she has been getting more and more solos and her range is insane because she can belt real high but also has a really pretty lower tone
Avi - he is not in the video because he left ptx in 2017 but he was the original bass of the group
Mitch - the second guy singing and let me tell you, you haven't heard anything from him yet, he is a counter tenor and has one of the most impressive ranges I have ever heard(if you listen to the part where Kirstie is singing you can hear a higher harmonie to her solo and yes that Mitch) and you probably can't tell from this song because he is singing I his lower range but he has one of the most unique voices ever
Some song recommendations: hallelujah(there is also a professionally recorded version from their Christmas special), can you feel the love tonight(to hear some more Matt), imagine(to hear every member sing), bohemian rhapsody(the electric guitar is just👌 you won't understand that unless you watch it), daft punk medley(recorded for 400$ in a closet and won them their first grammy)
Hey! They unblocked our video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Fun Fact: Kevin knows Chinese and Spanish.
This is all natural. They sound this good live.
That is awesome! Even more impressive.
Not sure if anyone mentioned this or if you're interested but Pentatonix just dropped a cover of Mad World on Wednesday!?
Its a true 5 point harmony cover! No beatboxing in this one and it sounds incredible! Very haunting 😮 and you get that unique Pentatonix wall of sound that is so beautiful and powerful! My favorite wall of sound is the one in Imagine where they literally sound like one voice which was the message of the cover!
Krista Gerry. YES! YES! YES!
Yes love it. Listened to it 6 times on my way to work, 2 times in work on my way home from work love love it
It's amazing and so appropriate for the times.
They are great
Hey! They unblocked our video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Yes, there is compression there, but I've never really caught autotune on their vocals. The correction that is done in post-production is mostly timing related and a bit of layering to make it sound fuller. But, since the fact that they can do all of this live has kind of been their brand from the beginning, they clearly make sure to keep the post-production to minimum.
The guy in the middle, Scott, is a baritone singer, so he's quite versatille with his range. He covers the bass line when the bass singer (Matt - white jacket) has a lead. But he can also cover some pretty high harmonies with his falsetto.
The second guy who sang (Mitch - high voice) was really tame in this song in particular. He rivals the lady (Kirstin) to the point where even seasoned fans are sometimes not sure if certain high notes were hit by him or her without watching the video. He has a pretty sick part in Hallelujah or Can You Feel the Love Tonight, for example.
Kevin, the beatboxer, rarely sings in their songs. And when he does, he often stays on the harmonies. His solos are very rare. He has one in Imagine or Mary Did You Know though. Vocally he's a tenor.
They are pretty big. It's only shame that they're mostly known for their covers. Their covers are awesome, don't get me wrong, but they have great original music that doesn't get enough attention. They're actually dropping a new original album this year (at least from what I can tell). A few weeks ago they've released the first single for the album, called Happy Now.
Anyway, thank you so much for reacting to them. This video made me ridiculously happy :).
Thank you so much for watching! Also for all the insight. You are awesome!! ✌❤
You gave a great review of them. Just one thing to add, we MISS Avi Kaplan for his insanely low bass. Avi’s solo work is also pretty amazing. They should checkout On The Rise too.
Please listen to their new song Be my eyes. Seems to have Enya influences.
the only thing i hear Autotune in is their (0's medly and it is done purposefully to pay homage to the original.
Welcome to the new world of a capella. Pentatonix and Home Free have rewritten the book on a capella worldwide. All of the suggestions for more songs to listen to are great. Pentatonix has 3 Grammys, one for their "Daft Punk Medley", one for their" Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies", and one for basically being Dolly Parton's backup band(?) on "Jolene". Also, try "Imagine" (John Lennon), "Bohemian Rhapsody" (Queen), "Hallelujah" (Leonard Cohen),"Mad World" (Tears for Fears), and of course, any of their Christmas music. For Home Free may I recommend their "Man of Constant Sorrow", "Will the Circle be Unbroken" (Johnny Cash), and my favorite, "Helplessly Hoping" (Crosby, Stills & Nash) (and then a quarantined Italian Youth Choir's cover of Home Free's arrangement).
I have seen Pentatonix and Home Free live and they are both as amazing live as they are in the studio versions!
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
They just dropped a new video ,MAD WORLD
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
The guy on the right would love Mitch in “Aha! - Singapore the Star Vista” 😉
You think so? Can't wait to hear it!
BlitzofChaos Gaming is right, Aha! Singapore is the dessert to the dinner of Pentatonix dinner. It can only be TRULY appreciated with more PTX under ur belt
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Dicodec don’t listen to these fools, you’ve seen Dimash already, best singer ever. Everything else can be seen now there’s no order for how to watch PTX videos people are just picky 🙄
If you like these guys, you can go down the rabbit whole and check out a lot more....😎
Down!
Please more pentatonix 💛💛
Of course!
I recommend Wizard of Ahh’s fea. Todrick Hall. U won’t be disappointed!!!!
Honestly, love every single Pentatonix video every. But you really, really need to check out their Daft Punk video. It is older, back when Avi Kaplan (original member) was their bass. You will NOT believe how low Avi can go.
Also check out Kevin’s solo stuff where he is celloboxing. It will amaze you. 😊
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
If you want to hear Kevin, the beatboxer sing, check out Imagine - THX for your reaction!
Thank you for watching! Also for the suggestion fam ✌
@@dicodec And, if you really, really want to hear him not only sing, but play cello, and beatbox. Go on his solo YT channel "Kevin Olusola". There he does his live looping "KOvers", as well as original compositions. One in particular, 'Down' by Marion Hill, is truly epic featuring a face-melting electric cello solo. Truth be known, Kevin is probably the most talented member of the group. Having been featured at Carnegie Hall while still in high school on both cello and saxophone.
@@jayholland2632 I have watched 100+ people react to Kevin's performance on his channel and I have not found one, not one person who wasn't impressed and astounded by him.
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Great Reaction! Welcome down the Pentatonix rabbit hole! We fans call ourselves Pentaholics. FYI: There is no lead & there are no egos in this group. They equally share the spotlight when a song calls for it. Their arrangements are industry leading by Ben Bram. Their layers add amazing depth to a song. What makes them unique is that EACH of them has such a wide vocal range. Kevin is the inventor of cello-boxing (playing the cello and beatboxing at the same time)! SO MANY GREAT songs to choose from! They have won 3 Grammys and tour the world. They have redefined acapella for a new generation!
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Yeah! This one is a phenomenal. You might want to check out their version of Bohemian Rhapsody and many more amazing stuffs. I will assure you, they will blow your mind.
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Pentatonix: 5 (6 with the original Bass Avi Kaplan until 2017) gifted super talented, hardworking artists, singers, performers. They are sooooo versatile. They cover such a variety of styles and do it masterfully. They also write originals. Enjoy the ride. 🤗
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Great reaction! Of course, the audio was recorded in a studio, but it is all just them making all the sounds (acapella). The guy you liked in the white jacket is the only new member to the band. He is their bass guy and replaced their original bass Avi. The new bass is Matt.
Oh dope! Thanks so much for the insight. ✌
They do not pitch correct. The percussionist guy as you call him rarely sings in beat heavy songs. He is a tenor who plays concert level cello and saxophone and plays piano and assists in arranging
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Awesome reaction! No auto tune for this group. It definitely is a capella.
Please please please react to their Daft Punk Medley. It won them their first Grammy
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Welcome to the world of PTX! Enjoy the ride. So many beautiful songs to hear.
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
You guys should check out Pentatonix Mad World. Just came out on Wednesday.
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
I love your commentary! Watching people discover PTX is one of my favorite things🥰 I’d love to see what you think of one of their live videos. My favorites are Evolution of Ariana Grande and Gold.
Oh dope! Thanks. We definitely do want to dive deeper into this group's music. So any suggestions you got. Throw it at us. ✌
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Shocked you hadn't heard Pentatonix. Their classic song is Bohemian Rhapsody. An extremely modern song that amazes is "Aha". Recommend you react to both of those.
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Pentatonix almost always makes a song better. They don't use autotune. Not even live. My favs are Hallelujah, Bohemian Rhapsody and Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy. Hope to see more!
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Welcome to PTX. Great reaction and I hope you’ll do more of their music. They have tons of material and you will not be disappointed. Thanks for posting. Subbed!
Thanks so much! Yes we do look forward to reacting more from this group. Not sure when we will get to them again but we will. ✌❤
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
No auto tune. Welcome to the world of Pentaholics! Great reaction!
Even more impressive!!
Thanks for the reaction, I love to see new people discover pentatonix. Their name came from the pentatonic scale, they changed the c to an x. Please, more pentatonix reaction.
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Any of the people in PTX (Including Kevin the beatboxer) are world class singers. The fact that they can layer, mesh, and step out of each other's way (vocally) so flawlessly makes them the Voltron of vocal groups to me.
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
I love that imagery! They totally are musical Voltron!
More pentatonix please!!!!!! Thx.
You got it!
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Just a couple of guys named Simon and Garfunkel... As for PTX this was just the tip of the iceberg. PTX has great covers and great original songs too. 3 x Grammy winners.
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
@@dicodec , I just did. Great job. 👍
More Pentatonix reactions, please! They are phenomenal! No autotune, no instruments (except for the beatboxer, Kevin, occasionally playing the cello and 2 songs featuring violinist Lindsey Stirling), and nothing on their videos that they can't reproduce live.
I most highly recommend their covers of Hallelujah, Bohemian Rhapsody, and Daft Punk, along with their originals Love Again and Sing. All of those are with their original bass, Avi Kaplan, who is absolutely astonishing. For songs with Matt (the guy all the way to the left that you liked), choose Havana, Come Along, Happy Now, or their brand new one, Mad World.
Welcome to the wonderful world of Pentatonix!
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
OMG! You guys do not know what you have stumbled onto! They do an AMAZING cover of Hallelujah that you guys must check out. I have subscribed just to hear your reaction to it❣️. They also cover Bohemian Rhapsody and John Lennon’s Imagine as well as Daft Punk which they won a Grammy for. Can’t wait to see/hear you again!
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
this is the magic of pentatonix for you.... a gift to the world
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
I'm so here for more Pentatonix reactions. You should react to Their covers of Hallelujah, Imagine or Bohemian Rhapsody next.
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
"I could listen to this all day"
Laughing because I HAVE been listening to this all day! Love love love them so much!
That is awesome haha
Love watching all reacts to 1st time ptx. Please do more reaction to Pentatonix (PTX) you shod listen to same song recorded and live. No difference. They are flipping amazing. Avi the baritone did go on his own Matt replaced he is incredible as well.
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Avi is a bass. Scott is a baritone and Matt is a bass/baritone.
PTX rocks and love hearing people discover them
All of these guys started out in an octave lower than they normally use (except the guy to the far left in the white jacket. He's normally their bass and goes clear to basso profundo.) The ending was more their normal octave. I wonder sometimes how people in the active music world have never even heard of Pentatonix when they've been around more than ten years and fill stadiums on world tours. Just a few days ago they released a new one, "Mad World", and it's stupendous. You'll thank yourself a lot if you give it a listen.
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
9 years 8 really.
Subscribed for more Pentatonix!! They’re incredible! Loved the reaction!
Thank you so much! We will definitely be reacting to more from them for sure. 😀
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
It always makes me so happy to watch people geek out over PTX for the first time
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
So glad you did this reaction, can tell you had an appreciation for their a cappella skills. Hope you do more Pentatonix, your fan base will quadruple if you react to them often. They make an effort not to use any auto tune etc because they want their studio and live versions to sound the same. You ought to check out Hallelujah, it has over 550 million views or their newest release of Mad World that just chocked up over one million views in one day. Also, their Daft Punk Medley won them their first Grammy. Their Bohemian Rhapsody is awesome!
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
And now you guys reacting PTX? Is this for real?!
The longer I follow your uploads the more I realize that you guys basically reacting to my entire playlist! HAHAHA! 🥰😂
Yup yup, it's all thanks to our patreons haha. They're keeping it fresh. ✌
There's nothing in the world like hearing this live, 4th row from the stage...It was so incredible!!!
You lucky person you
@@dicodec Indeed!
Much love to you guys from Lenoir City, TN
Keep the PTX reactions coming!!!
You should hear Hallelujah, Bohemian Rhapsody, Imagine and Radioactive, you will hear the incredible range and a couple of them were recorded when the original Bassist was still there Avi, HIS voice is incredible! Once you start listening to them you can’t stop
once i was showing one of my friends pentatonix, first time, never heard of them, and they were drinking starbucks, and scott's voice came on and they choked on their drink they were so surprised. now they are a really big pentaholic.
Oh man, that's pretty funny. Those low note are pretty shocking to hear haha.
First Grammy award was for daft punk medely which really lets you hear Kevin's beatboxing also Hallelujah is amazing. If you want to hear Kevin's singing he's great in Imagine and Mary did you know.
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html

Theres no auto tune just there voices
Y’all need to watch Citizen Queen and their cover of No Tears Left To Cry. All girl acapella group. They’re so good!
First of all, it IS a cappella, second, there is no Auto Tune. Other than that your first 15 sec. of the reaction has been spot on. Oh, never mind.
This sounds just as good live.
you guys seem pretty cool :)
I'd love for you to react to more PTX. and yes, they are acapella except for when Kevin the beatboxer plays cello and beatboxes at the same time. a few favs are Hallelujah, Imagine, Bohemian Rhapsody, Daft Punk, Mad World, Evolution of Michael Jackson... but, everything they do is superb!
Oh sweet! We'd definitely love to dive deeper i to this group.
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Great reaction 🔥🔥! If you plan on doing more PTX then start with the big hits, Bohemian Rhapsody and Hallelujah. Or their Grammy winning song Daft Punk (a Daft Punk medley). 👍
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Pentatonix (Acapella group) formed in 2011 to compete on The Sing-off. You can literally follow their career from inception. Also, Beginner's Guide to Pentatonix is a good video to start. If you like The Wizard of Oz, check out Todrick Hall's Wizard of Ahhhs featuring Pentatonix. It's ahhhmazing! Enjoy!
"They made it their own." That's what they do. Every time! The percussionist guy is named Kevin Olusula, or KO. He joins in on the harmonies, and occasionally has a lead part. To hear all their voices, you need to check out "Mary, Did You Know?" or their latest, "Mad World." (But then again, I love their original songs, too. Check out "Happy Now" for a really great, danceable bop!)

Welcome to the PTX family! 8 years of amazing music. You need to check out more music. They don’t use autotune and they sound as amazing live. Your favorite is Matt and he’s the new bass singer. He replaced Avi Kapla two years ago. Avi is another awesome bass singer as well. Once you start listening to PTX, I guarantee you cannot stop! Cheers.
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
PLEASE give us some more PTX reactions. I cannot wait to see your minds blown over their Daft Punk video. Welcome to the world of PTX reactions.!
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
Unless you can see an instrument on screen, there isn’t one being used. Have seen this live, if anything it sounds fuller, which 🤯 And DEF not pitch correction. Their natural pitch is mind boggling. Check out the live version of Hallelujah from their Christmas special, to really get a sense of how slick and flawless their natural sound and blend is.
Oh wow, yeah these guys are ridiculously impressive. I can't wait to hear more!
Dicodec some great examples that show a wide range of their abilities are:
- Love Lockdown, Let’s Get It On, Born To Be Wild and Dog Days Are Over, from their time on The Sing Off (baby PTX, finding their niche and sound)
- Say Something, lead for Kirstie and a beautiful example of Kevin “cello boxing”
- Imagine and Can You Feel The Love Tonight - walls of harmony to blow your hair back
- Daft Punk Medley - like.... HOW? Also their first Grammy winner
- I Can’t Help Falling In Love With You and When The Party’s Over - subtle, dreamy perfection
- Hallelujah Live, Imagine and Bohemian Rhapsody, to just knock your damn socks off.

Scott (who is nominally their lead singer) has a crazy vocal range. When their bass is on lead (in this case, Matt), Scott takes the bass line. The beat-boxer Kevin rarely sings - but when he does, he takes tenor. Kirstie has always been good, but after a short time on Broadway, her voice and projection ability have radically improved. The short dark-haired guy is Mitch, who sings high tenor. If you want to see versatility, find their Daft Punk medley.
Awesome reaction guys. Great compliments to the artist. It’s always one with great reaction that is animated and one that is serious. I have seen it so far with four duos. 😂😂

You've got a new subscriber 💜I came for dimash reaction but I'm staying for pentatonix reactions... Y'all they're crazy talented ... Please do more reactions of them... They're 3 times Grammy winner a capella group... Just quick intro - ptx was formed in 2011
The guy who started is Scott hoying he is baritone but can hit some pretty good bass notes and overall versatile singer. He has a range of 4octaves.
Next is Mitch Grassi the second guy who sang he is a tenor with unbelievable range and can really high . He originally is countertenor with freaking 5 octaves ..
The beatboxer / percussion guy is Kevin Olusula who is really great and sometimes when he sings his placement is tenor ... He has surprisingly good range since not been trained in singing.. he is a cello player and has made songs using beatboxing and playing cello calling it "celloboxing" he has released his own songs too might want to check them out
The lady out there is Kirstie Maldonado who is mezzo soprano and has some killer vocals which have developed since doing Broadway and other stuff
The last guy with white jacket is Matt . He is a new member who replaced the original bass guy.
The original bass guy was - Avi Kaplan he is a musician, vocalist and a natural bass with 3 octave range .
Please please please react to their stuff -
Daft punk -(Grammy winning song)
Bohemian rhapsody
Hallelujah

(Cue Rod Serling voice) You are about to enter another dimension. A dimension of sight and sound and mind. At the signpost up ahead, your next stop, the Pentatonix rabbit hole! Great reaction, always fun to see new folks discover Pentatonix (PTX for short).
You are going to be flooded by avid PTX fans (who call themselves Pentaholics) who love watching reactions. You will get many suggestions from their extensive catalog. Frankly, pick ANYTHING they do and you won’t be disappointed.
A little background on PTX, of the five of them, three of them, the tall blonde guy, Scott Hoying (baritone), the young lady, Kirstin (or Kirstie) Maldonado (mezzo-soprano), and the guy with the dark hair and high voice, Mitch Grassi (counter-tenor), are originally from Arlington Texas and have known each other since childhood and sang together in high school.
In 2011, NBC had a singing competition called “The Sing Off” where a-cappella groups competed against each other and one was eliminated each week. Scott wanted to compete, but they needed 5 people, so they met a fourth member, Avi Kaplan, a classically trained bass singer, through a friend and he joined (he is in many videos and has a beard, but personal reasons caused him to amicably leave the group in 2017). Before Avi left, he helped find his replacement, an equally talented base singer, Matt Sallee, who is in the current group in this video. That has been the only change in the lineup. If you begin to watch their earlier videos, you will barely recognize Mitch, he lost a lot of weight, and changes his look often, as does Kirstie.
Scott discovered their fifth member, beatboxer/cellist/vocalist (tenor) Kevin Olusola, on CZcams where he was “celloboxing” or beat boxing while playing the cello. Because of schedules, they didn’t meet until just a few days before the competition began, yet they went on to win the show.
They won a recording contract as part of the show prize, but 2 weeks into it, the label dropped them feeling like an a-cappella group was not marketable. Refusing to be discouraged, PTX began a CZcams channel and from that channel garnered millions of world-wide fans, went on to world tours, put out multiple albums, including wildly successful Christmas albums, hit the #1 spot on the Billboard chart, almost always in the top ten, and have to date won 3 Grammy Awards.
They do all their own beats. No instruments are used with the exception of several videos where Kevin plays the cello and some collaborations with violinist Lindsey Sterling. They do not use multi-tracking, auto-tune or any studio tricks. Everything they have on video, they perform exactly the same live.
All their Sing Off performances are on CZcams, watching them will give you their story, and show you how they have evolved into, IMO, the best a-cappella group in the world right now. Welcome to the PTX experience.

Great bio! I would add that they have an arranger who they collaborate with, and a sound engineer, and every one of them is a freaking genius.
Yes yes yes. More Pentatonix please!!!
Hey! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
This and Shallow are my favorite songs with the new PTX lineup! Kirsty is powerful on both!
Got to see Simon and Garfunkel do this live when I was in college - about fifty years ago.
Woah that's awesome!!
Great reaction!!! Thx!👍
Thank you for watching 😀
Hey all! They unblocked our other Pentatonix video! czcams.com/video/F8hNNxRMbNk/video.html
They do not autotune. They only correct for sound level and timing. The beauty is they each have a distinct voice and style and the mix is amazing. There is so much to say but others will do that. You should react to the iconic songs 'Hallelujah', 'Imagine' and 'Bohemian Rhapsody' next.

Welcome to the world of PTX. Hope you listen to more of their music.

Can't wait to see you fall into the PTX rabbit hole and pick up your jaw from the ground every single time (I can assure you, it WILL happen 😅). You just started an amazing journey. Please keep reacting to them 🙏

@@dicodec 😳 ok i go to see
I feel like even if the heavens spoke and the beauty of music itself had descended to touch my ear, I still wouldn’t feel as blessed as I do when I listen to these artist sing

They are the Keepers of Acapella , that is getting rare these days. 2 of them were on the FBE channel reacting to Babymetal, and they said they should do a Babymetal cover. As far as I know they haven't done it yet. A bonus is that Su, Moa, and Yui reacted to their reaction! Both videos are still up on CZcams.
Song was written by Paul Simon and original recording was by Simon and Garfunkel, #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in Dec, 1965.
Nice change of pace guys. Have you ordered your Morley 20/20 Wah pedals yet? Kanami seems to like them!
Oh wow, that's dope! I've seen the video had no clue it was them. Yeah it was pretty refreshing listening to something alittle different. We haven't yet her demo of them was pretty cool. I kinda want to order one haha.
@@dicodec
Which FBE video have you seen? CZcamsrs react to Babymetal or Babymetal react to the CZcamsrs? Fyi there is a third one of outtakes. Plus there is Celebrities React to Babymetal.
You should check out Kevin’s solo stuff, particularly ‘Down’ and ‘Sign of the times’
Is it fire?
@@dicodec it's more than fire. Kevin is supremely talented. in Down he beatboxes, plays electric cello (I think that's what it's called), sings...with looping...it's crazy-good! :)
Spaceydoodle you could easily argue he’s the most talented member of Pentatonix
Spaceydoodle AND, he’s fluent in Mandarin Chinese
Kevin is not just super talented, he's super smart too. He graduated pre-med from Yale and gave up med school to join PTX.
You should listen to their Daft Punk melody and Bohemian Rhapsody it has the original Bass Avi you will love him! But thanks for your reaction. Please keep them coming 🙏

If you haven't already you want to contrast this to disturb cover of Simon and Garfunkel sound of silence. It's a bit different from what disturbed usually does and took them a few years to come up with A version that they were happy with.
Please drive into Pentatonix catalog. Hallelujah has over 5Million views. The African American who sang on this video is matt. He replaced avi who you will see In videos up to 2017 when he left the group for personal reasons. They're all still very friendly and Avi has pursued his own career. Hi Picked matt as his replacement. You also want to watch death punk Which they won I think it was their 1st Grammy. They have 3 Grammy's. The other is for Dance of the sugar plum fairy where you really get to hear the full range of all 5Members. Daft punk was Made on a budget of $400 in a closet and kitchen on an iPad. That's how you make a Grammy award song. Then listen to bohemian rhapsody. They dropped an original called happy now and just dropped a cover for mad world.

@@blitzofchaosgaming6737 Typo. Rather I voice text and my phone doesn't understand Lesa speak
10 minutes ago there was a live stream of Pentatonix (back in Texas?) collab with Little Glee Monster (Japan) for the First Take CZcams channel
Oh really? That is awesome! I want to see that.
