They did this entire recording separately from each other in their own home studios and each audio piece was put together by Ben Bram in post-production. Imagine creating harmonies this intricate without the ability to hear what any other member was singing. The entire At Home EP from last year was put together this way, and as a result, I feel it was their best work to date (that has since been topped by the Lucky Ones album), and didn't really receive the accolades it should have due to the complexity of the production. In retrospect, the videos from the EP were simple to do compared to the audio. And I agree with your take on Kirstie. I think she's just so naturally charismatic that she can just seduce the camera without even realizing she's doing it. I love watching interviews or other non-singing videos with her because she just radiates this aura around her that is VERY magnetic...always so positive and genuine. Needless to say, she is my favorite member, and I have LOVED to watch how much she has come out of her shell and started to shine so brightly on all the stuff they've done in the last couple of years.
I agree. I was going to point-out that this was during quarantine, and everyone was secluded basically.. They each had their own backdrop, and I think it was in " Home ", that Kevin's backdrop featured their 3 grammys.
I'm so impressed by how they have taken so many beautiful aspects of the Cranberries' video and incorporated into this. The original has the same ethereal feel. Apparently Dolores O' Rhiordan was very much a favourite of Mitch and this was done as a tribute to her following her untimely passing. Great reaction, thank you :)
I love when they do 5 part harmonies. Here Matt drops the bass and sings as the 5th part. - 2 others that come to mind are their original Run to You and their cover of Can’t Help Falling in Love. I think Imagine is 5 part harmonies. You should check out their recent live performance of Seasons of Love (from Rent) as part of this year’s Capital Fourth show. Kirstin is outstanding ✌️💚
I love this one. I agree with all of your comments. The visuals, harmonies, Matt's bassline, Mitch's yodel singing, etc. They did Dolores and The Cranberries justice. The entire album and videos were done last year while on lock down. Impressive, right?! When The Party's Over and Cologne are my favorites. I wish they had done a video for Cologne. It's such a great upbeat song. And I'd love to see how Kevin is doing the insane beatboxing. Still well worth a listen! 🔥
Great reaction. Thanks. I enjoyed the film making info that you gave. Their At Home EP consisted of 6 songs. They made videos for 5 of them. Please react to the others also. It's amazing what they did from their individual homes. They had to learn how to set up and to use the equipment to record themselves for audio and video for the project.
This song showcases their harmonies so beautifully. Without the beatboxing it shines even more than usual and also allow Kevin to have an equal role in the singing making it 5-part harmony rather than the usual 4-part, adding even more richness than usual. Wonderful comments by you and very knowledgeable. Much appreciated.
This was done their first EP out after lockdown. They had to get recording equipment in each of their homes. You should check out the rest of the EP videos to see how they changed each one up.
Love it! 💙 and to think they did all of this and the entire album this is on from their own homes during quarantine is still so amazing to me!! If you haven’t, you should check out their Home medley from this same album it’s great!!
I am SO glad you understand the post poduction on the vocals. Too many reactors/reviewers think what they hear, comes out of their mouths exactly as it's presented in the vid. They have incredible talent but that is not all that goes into their slick, heavenly creations. The elocution of 'vignette' is .....VIN-YET ..... and the extended construct is 'vignette effects' (no 'ing') ... Thank you, Your pronunciation Nazi who doesn't want people to sound uneducated (even though they're not) especially in their own field. Post script: Love your channel and have subscribed.
I really enjoyed your analysis! One thing that I have noticed watching a lot of PTX reaction videos (cause I am OBSESSED lol) is that the great majority of romantic and sexual comments/observations are directed at Kirstie. I get that straight dudes (among others) find her attractive. She is very beautiful, and her warmth and charm shine through in a way that is captivating and makes people feel connected to her. As a fan of PTX (and PTX reactions!) it gets a little old, is all. Perhaps you will appreciate me sharing my thoughts, perhaps not, but because you seem like a nice person and I want to watch more of your videos, I am putting it out there.
I definitely understand. Because I'm sure so many men have complimented her in reactions, I've chosen to comment on her voice, makeup design, character, or costume. I'm glad you enjoyed my reaction and thanks for your kind words 😁
Thanks, Jeffrey, I always enjoy your reactions and you sharing your knowledge with us on how some of the "special effects" are accomplished by their editors and videographers. In this one, we get the EXTRA treat of hearing Kevin's voice raised along with the other members of the group. It's to easy to see him as only the beatboxer (he is one of the very few truly awesome beatboxers performing today), but his voice is also spectacular, as we see this time. Keep on giving us the benefit or your knowledge. It's MUCH appreciated.
Yes no beat boxing on this one as Kevin is taking part in the 4- or 5-part Harmony. Kirstin is beautiful, that I agree. Many are in live with her lol. As others have commented, it's worthwhile to react to the other mvs of the At Home EP. They are so different from each other. Thanks for your insights esp on video making
I just found your channel and am obsessed with your ptx reactions ... there are a few more to check out if u haven't already Making Christmas, sweater weather , all their Christmas songs , seasons of love , shallow , can't hold us , Mary did u know , God only knows , Run to you , your a mean one Mr. GRINCH ,
Hi Michelle! Thank you for your comment! I have a playlist dedicated to ptx reactions on this channel. Some of the videos in that playlist contain "Mary Did You Know," and "You're A Mean One Mr. Grinch".
Sorry to hear that Katarina... I edit my RUclips videos like that intentionally for the sake of audience retention. Unfortunately, the editing style doesn't work for everyone. I'll be sure to keep in mind the pacing of my next video reaction 😄 Thanks the feedback!

Delores left this world way too soon. 😥 I think PTX really honored them with this recording. 💞
Same ❤

Well a tribute for Dolores they made indeed! I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for watching!
The beautiful 5 part harmonies with Kevin singing! Each one of these 5 videos of the At Home EP made during quarantine truly has its own unique vibe.
Right?! The editing brings everything together too.
I loved the mellowness of this version and so glad they did it this way.
I agree. They added their own distinct touch to the song.

There will be more from their at home EP! The quality is too good not to react to!
I LOVE THIS COVER!! I still LOVE the original but PTX made is SWEETER😍
Exactly! It's so crisp!

Wow! I'm telling you, everything comes alive in post-production (editing).
Absolutely loved your reaction, as always ! Keep up the good work 😉

She was an outstanding singer. ❤

I've gotta share my live for filmmaking! ❤📸 Yeah, I'll be reacting to all of their At Home EP! It's too good not to share a reaction!
Love this...I hear this and think of the movie "You've Got Mail"

@@JeffreyHackReacts awesome thxs ! I'll check them out today !! Your reactions I love due to the fact that you look at things through multiple lenses
Ptx the best!!!! ❤️❤️
They're such a great a cappella group!
You should do cologne off this album though I’m not sure if there is a video for it but it is fantastic
I'll take your word for it 😁
Check out Amazing Grace by Pentatonix!!
Great suggestion!
Kirstin gets too me too !
Was this a tribute to Dolores after she passed. It’s beautiful RIP
They recorded this separately in their own homes during quarantine...
The layout of the video was necessitated by the Pandemic and "Stay at Home" orders...they each shot their part then did the rest in post.
Which is pretty remarkable!
I get your a film maker or whatever but your whooshing of the focus and choppy edits are making me nauseous. Please rethink that thanks.
Sorry to hear that Katarina... I edit my RUclips videos like that intentionally for the sake of audience retention. Unfortunately, the editing style doesn't work for everyone. I'll be sure to keep in mind the pacing of my next video reaction 😄
