Not filmed on an iPad (that was "Moves Like Jagger") and it was in a kitchen (the audio was recorded in the closet). FifGen Films (a boutique production company) professionally filmed and produced the video, but the budget was very tight.
The reason why Kevin (pretty sure it's Kevin) is wearing glasses is that he couldn't wear the contacts they were using. So they found some technoflash sunglasses for him to keep the look.
Well...there were post production costs. I know they did the initial filming and editing themselves in one of their apartments, but they did send it out for "polishing"
Kevin is the beatboxer and you are correct; he was unable to tolerate the contacts. From how red his eyes were it appears that Avi (the bass) was also having some problems with them, but managed anyway. The trio seem to have managed with no trouble. You're also correct about this being a medley; it incorporates seven Daft Punk songs. The audio was recorded in a closet (it had good acoustics). The video was recorded at their makeup artist's kitchen table. Their budget was around $400, most of which went for makeup (presumably including the contacts), one ring light, and professional editing. This won them their first Grammy, for Best Arrangement Instrumental or A Cappella; Ben Bram (sometimes known as "the sixth member of Pentatonix") was also credited as an arranger, so he shared the Grammy with them. Before Pentatonix's "Daft Punk Medley" came out NARAL had no categories for a cappella; they had to change the category name from "Best Arrangement Instrumental" to "Best Arrangement Instrumental or A Cappella" just so Pentatonix could be *nominated,* let alone win. Their second Grammy, for "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy," was in the same category. Their third Grammy, which they shared with Dolly Parton, was for their collaboration with Dolly (she was 71 at the time) on her iconic song "Jolene." The category was Best Country Duo/Group Performance. It was the first time *Dolly Parton* had won a Grammy for Jolene!
As others have said, they filmed this in a closet, and won their first Grammy with this. I also recommend their cover of Sound of Silence and Imagine. They're also really good!
Just think: Britt has just barely scratched the surface on Home Free, Pentatonix and Geoff. And hasn't yet heard anything by Voiceplay and Voctave. Britt has quite the journey in front of her with the acapella groups.
I need her to hear "my mother told me" and "oogie boogie song" by VoicePlay, "I can't make you love me" and "house of the rising sun" by Geoff Castellucci, "hopelessly helping"/"end of the road"/"American pie" and, when ready, "mayday" by Home Free. im like...GET ON THIS!!!
@@sersastark I totally agree with you, I'd throw in a few more from PTX, such as Radioactive, Amazing Grace, The Sound of Silence, Love me when I don't. Home Free, I'd have Britt hear more of their early stuff (Butts mix), My Church then go to Mayday to hear how they flip everything. Voiceplay, the theater kids of Acapella, but I'd include This is Halloween and Geoff has so many pieces he's done in last few years such as Monster Mash, Country Roads and Ghost Riders In the Sky. Geoff even has a few readings ie Poetry to listen to
♥ I've been waiting for this one! You'll love their original song, Love Again. This is a mashup of Technologic, One More Time, Get Lucky, Digital Love, Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger, Television Rules the Nation, and Around the World.
Yes Kevin could not wear the contacts, so these cool glasses were provided to him, Avi the bass singer also had a hard time with the contacts his eyes are slightly red. Great reaction as always! try another one of their grammy award winning music "Jolene with Dolly Parton or Dance of the Sugar plum fairies" Thanks!
Done in a closet and kitchen at Mitch’s house I believe, and it cost about $400! They won a GRAMMY for this! Run To You, mentioned by Avi, is an original of theirs written by Avi and Kevin (the beat boxer), so beautiful and heartbreaking, please watch ❤. Happy Valentines Day❤❤❤
Considering your reaction each time Avi sings you have to listen to his solo music sometime! He’s got a gorgeous live recording for 7Layers of his original All is well, just him and a guitar and it’s one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever heard!
The Sing Off had their teeth whitened for the show. After they lost the recording contract, they thanked the Sing Off for their pearly whites. If you want to watch their Michael Jackson Medley, you can see the whole thing done in 1 take.
Maybe helps a bit...😊 Pentatonix Pentatonix has won three Grammy Awards: they were the first a cappella act to win Best Arrangement, Instrumental or A Cappella, doing so in 2015 and 2016, ... Past members: Avi Kaplan Members: Mitch Grassi;(high voice) Kirstin Maldonado; Scott Hoying;(tall blonde) Kevin Olusola(beat boxer); Matt Sallee (new bass) Origin: Arlington, Texas, U.S Total views: 5.9+ billion
Thanks for your reaction. It's always fun watching someone just discovering how talented and entertaining this group is. You have a lot to discover down this rabbit hole. BTW, yes, it is a Daft Punk medley...in this case a mix of 7 songs: Technologic; One More Time; Get Lucky; Digital Love; Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger; Television; and Round the World (most people miss this the first time - it's sung by Kirstie underneath Avi when he sings "Television", and again in the final moments).
great react :) the Daft Punk song with Pharrell and the one that Kanye sampled and the others...so COOL...and these guys do something otherworldly with it
Currently, Pentatonix will each record their individual tracks independently in the studio (once they've come up with the arrangement, of course). Those will be edited together; I forget the name of their editor - not Ben Bram, someone else. Then for their official video they'll all sing together, but the actual audio will be the studio recording - by actually singing when they make the video they can lip-synch to the studio recording in a more genuine manner; everyone is in proper time, their lips, tongues, and hands are moving the way they normally do while singing, etc.. For this one it's less clear. I'm pretty sure they recorded the audio individually; I don't know how big that closet was but doing it all together sounds distinctly crowded. But it appears that they also recorded the video separately, since they only bought one ring light and we see it behind each of them. Remember, this was *very* early in their career; they were still working things out and they didn't own their own studio. In 2014 the trio would have been 21 or 22; Avi would have been 24 or 25; and Kevin would probably have been 25 as well, depending on how early in the year they recorded this. Now, timing is very important, always, for group singing. When recording separately it is absolutely essential that everyone get that right. Currently they use some kind of ear bud device that gives them a click beat, like a metronome, to keep them in time with each other, but I can't imagine that they had that back then. If you see videos where they're asked to improvise something on the spot they'll start by asking Kevin to give them some rhythm and they'll then work from there. So my *guess* would be that they had Kevin record his track first, and then were using ear phones to listen to it while they each sang their individual tracks. The only problem with this theory (and I emphasize that I'm guessing here) is that the ear phones in question would have had to be the kind that let you hear everything around you, because otherwise the singer would hear her or himself only through bone conduction, and that's a really good way to sing out of tune. This is why people wearing headphones and singing along to the music they're listening to generally sound horrible. Choir singers are taught that if they need to hear themselves better they shouldn't do it by sticking a finger in an ear but by cupping a hand over the ear; that way they can hear themselves by both air conduction and bone conduction.
I consider this one a mandatory stop on the PTX journey. I know how you felt when you just couldn't find the words. Be sure to watch some of their live performances because many of them are excellent in showing the bare talent of the group.
I was so excited to see your reaction to Daft Punk when I saw it in my feed. I just knew you would be blown away, especially starting at 4:36. Great reaction and everything I expected.
Baby, I am solid chair dancing with you. I would love to react to stuff with you. I love your react videos. You actually respect the song without walking all over it to get viewers. I watched him to do it for a three hour live concert and he even played the cello at the same time.
The actual Daft Punk video for "One More Time" was animated with the band members being blue cartoon characters . Years before Avatar. I've never heard Pentatonix explain the blue contacts, but I'm guessing it was an homage to that video. And if you never have seen Daft Punk, it's a French duo that wore robot looking helmets. Unable to wear the contacts, Kevin's eye gear most likely is another tribute to the original band members.
I've watched a ton of your reactions....this is the first one I ever watched where you stuttered, regrouped, and said.... "my ears are sweating!" Girl...that's the truest reaction I've ever seen! LOL! You rock!
By your reaction, I’m pretty sure that you’re a member of the family of Pentaholix at this point. As such, we welcome you and we will help guide you through your journey. A true masterpiece of arranging and visual artistry is their cover of My Favorite Things. Also, check out the originals like Coffee in Bed or Be My Eyes. Enjoy!❤
I absolutely loved everything about your reaction to this one. You were right on the money about Kevin and the contacts. He just couldn’t tolerate them so they found cool shades for him. (And Avi’s eyes are red throughout, so it wasn’t easy for him either.) you can see similar energy in their Can’t Hold Us video and their original Sing. As others have said, their 90s Dance Medley will have you bopping along too. Thanks for this one, now go blow dry your sweaty ears and have a good nap! Peace from Ohio …
Yes, it's a medley of Daft Punk songs. Yes, Kevin couldn't wear the contacts so he has the glasses. If you look at Avi (the bass singer) you can tell he struggled with them. You can see how red his eyes are.
Your react is so pure. Your hair is cute as hell. Your energy is fantastic and that smile for miles is lovely. Great react. I'm late to the game on this one but love it and, as always, Peace and Love to you and yours. Never walked away from a react by ja that didn't leave me in a better mood.
This Acapella group is the best, you’ll ever hear. Also yes Kevin couldn’t wear the contacts, they irritated his eyes, hence the classes. 😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤🇬🇧🇬🇧👏🏉🏉
Glad to have subscribed for you. Enjoy ALL of PTX. The bass here is Avi- he left the group but he’s amazing on his own. Mitch, Scott, and Kirstie have been singing together since high school. Kevin the best box is a tenor and plays the cello. They have one ?3 Grammys and this was one. Welcome to the PTX rabbit hole 🕳️ oh and yes! They have many melodies that mix songs from sane person group etc
The story behind is interesting, they had their studio cancel at the last minute so this was recorded in Avi's closet for a total sum of about $400.00 And they won a grammy with this one.
This is a medley of Daft Punk songs, thank you for clarifying that fact/title. Loved your reaction thanks for posting, stopping, rewinding, and talking. It was like introducing PTX to someone in person. Your facial expressions and random groans, jokes, commentary were literally the best.
If you want to see something amazing, please react to Pentatonix singing Dance of The Sugar Plum Ferries (2nd Grammy) Daft Punk they received their 1st Grammy The also got their 3rd Grammy for “Jolene” featuring Dolly Parton
Thank you! Thank you! Someone's first comments are about the music and not the eyes. For me what sets this song apart from most is the the "musicality" of it.
Gotta love Pentatonix but if you're curious some other well known acapella groups to check out are: Home Free, Voice Play, and Voctave. There are also artists like Peter Hollens who do acapella layering, where they cover all the beat boxing and vocals from just one person.
ok...we know you love MJ and Pentatonix so get to their MJ evolution video! Don't skip over that one! & loving the visuals and clothing choices as I know you do, you gotta see the PTX video Can't Sleep Love! You grew up singing in your church I think...(I did also)! Mary Did You Know has a religious theme and the harmonies will blow you away!!! Thanks for your o so great reaction videos...really, yours are the best!!! Bye for now
PTX won their first grammy for the arrangement of their "Daft Punk" medley not the video. 2nd grammy for their arrangement of The Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy. Third was a performance grammy for a live recording with Dolly Parton of her "'Jolene".
Welcome to the rabbit hole. Their catalogue is so incredible. Emotional punch highest from Imagine, or Mad World. Pure talent that will blow you away Amazing Grace.
Sound of Silence, Amazing Grace, Can’t Hold Us, Mad World, Evolution of Michael Jackson and their originals Love Again and Coffee in Bed for a start. 💜
Hey Britt, I see you reacted to this medley a year ago. Last year around this time I saw PTX in concert and it was 🔥 I think part of my brain was convinced that there had to be some sort of modification to the songs to sound so good, but no. After seeing them live I was just as if not more blown away by all this talent.
Great reaction! They are fantastic. Please react to (the bass) Avi Kaplans solo stuff so good. Would recommend Change on the rise. You won't be disappointed.
Hi Britt. You can't go wrong with anything PTX does but "The Evolution Of Michael Jackson" is one of my favs. Hallelujah and Sound Of Silence are also very good. Keep making good choices of content. Great work.
This is one of my favorites from Pentatonix. They did another one very similar to this, called "Love Again," but it's an original, not a cover. Citizen Queen is an all-girl acapella group like Pentatonix. You should check them out.
Definitely time for you to look at Olena Uutai’s first performance on America’s Got Talent. Her ability to make unbelievable sounds is other-worldly. You will LOVE HER!
Given your reaction to Avi's (Bass) parts, you may want to check out his solo stuff. It's a lot more Folk than most of his work with Pentatonix, but definitely still great stuff. (He left the group, amicably, in 2017.) I recommend 'Tumbleweed', 'Other Side', 'The Summit', and 'Change on the Rise', which has been described as "if testosterone was a song." 😁👍
You have to picture this - the record company drops them does not believe acapella would do $$ good - they take $400 film this in a closet - edit it in the kitchen - and win their first Emmy for it. They have never looked back! Oh I am so glad you are down the rabbit hole! Cant wait for you to react to Imagine - Mary did you know - The Prayer and Aha Singapore to name just a few of my favorites but oh so many more as well!
Hey Brit, this is one of my favorite medleys by them. I was going to highly recommend love again which is an original by the group and it is cookoo bananas how they are able to accomplish what they do with it. What a joy to watch your reaction to this. Thank you
I hope you went and found one of the recordings of them doing this live ... pretty sure there's one of them just in an open room singing for a small audience. They're amazing.
Daft Punk was a Duo specialicing in EDM. Famous for their robotic sounding voices, made by vocoders and so on. It is said, they had a BIG influence on dance music over, I think 30 years. When PTX performed this medley in Melbourne on stage, there appeared in the aufience 2 gentlemen, to thank them for their hard work, Daft Punk themselves. Be safe dear. Elmar from Germany.
😆 she had an eargasm.
They filmed and recorded it on an ipad in a closet...in their apartment. Crazy talent.
...and won a grammy for it.
With around a $400 budget
During the beginning of the pandemic I think as well. Filmed in their own closets since they couldn't get together.
@@TwoRiversFarm707 This video was from 9 years ago, when Avi was still in the band.
Not filmed on an iPad (that was "Moves Like Jagger") and it was in a kitchen (the audio was recorded in the closet). FifGen Films (a boutique production company) professionally filmed and produced the video, but the budget was very tight.
The reason why Kevin (pretty sure it's Kevin) is wearing glasses is that he couldn't wear the contacts they were using. So they found some technoflash sunglasses for him to keep the look.
This was their first Grammy winner. $400 production cost!
Well...there were post production costs. I know they did the initial filming and editing themselves in one of their apartments, but they did send it out for "polishing"
@@Gwennedd The post production was done for free as the company as also trying to make a name for themselves. Happens a lot.
Say Something moves me to tears. Imagine is a must see. 90s Dance Medley is unreal!
Individually they are each a musical genius...collectively...OMG!!!
Kevin is the beatboxer and you are correct; he was unable to tolerate the contacts. From how red his eyes were it appears that Avi (the bass) was also having some problems with them, but managed anyway. The trio seem to have managed with no trouble.

You would probably also love their 90's Dance Medley. This one is the best visually, but the 90's Dance probably includes music you will recognize.
Their Sound of Silence cover is insanely good 👍🤟
As others have said, they filmed this in a closet, and won their first Grammy with this. I also recommend their cover of Sound of Silence and Imagine. They're also really good!

Don't forget the Super Fruit songs, too!
two of these guys formed Superfruit and their cover of 'rise' is well worth a listen.
YES!!
Their Hip-hop goes Broadway is great too
Chair dancing with you. 😂. Daft punk medley. PTX s first Grammy. They never disappoint
Great reaction. Pentatonix is amazing, as a big Daft Punk fan this is one of my faves for sure.

This is the type of reaction I hope people have. Their talent and coordination still blows me away.
Daft Punk and Hallelujah are my favorite Pentatonix songs. Also love Sound of Silence and Bohemian Rhapsody.
Girl, I was dancing with you! Al’s, I heard (can’t confirm) that they put this video together for $400……and they won a Grammy for this. Wow, just wow!
you killed me on this one....I can't wait to see you do the 90's dance remix. you will be getting down the whole time again!!!!!!
Your expression watching this video…priceless!🎶🎶

Dance of The Sugar Plum Ferries (2nd Grammy)
Daft Punk they received their 1st Grammy
The also got their 3rd Grammy for “Jolene” featuring Dolly Parton
They absolutely crushed this, Daft Punk was the stuff back in the 90’s!!👊💥💥💥🔥
When I first watched this I didn't know what to expect, and then realized I have heard all of them before . Daft punk much respect!
And the hit reactions just keep on comin'!!!!!

PTX won their first grammy for the arrangement of their "Daft Punk" medley not the video. 2nd grammy for their arrangement of The Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy.
Third was a performance grammy for a live recording with Dolly Parton of her "'Jolene".
Welcome to the rabbit hole. Their catalogue is so incredible. Emotional punch highest from Imagine, or Mad World. Pure talent that will blow you away Amazing Grace.
Sound of Silence, Amazing Grace, Can’t Hold Us, Mad World, Evolution of Michael Jackson and their originals Love Again and Coffee in Bed for a start. 💜
Fun reaction! You'll now find yourself rewatching it over and over. lol
Hey Britt, I see you reacted to this medley a year ago. Last year around this time I saw PTX in concert and it was 🔥 I think part of my brain was convinced that there had to be some sort of modification to the songs to sound so good, but no. After seeing them live I was just as if not more blown away by all this talent.
Omg I loved this reaction sooooo much!! You are the BEST❤❤❤
Great reaction! They are fantastic. Please react to (the bass) Avi Kaplans solo stuff so good. Would recommend Change on the rise. You won't be disappointed.
I agree Avi's solo music is fabulous!
Hi , crazy and funny video from PTX. They deserve the Emmy they won with this video. They are amazing. Love from Portugal
First time I've seen you so animated. Love seeing you enjoy great sounds.
the answer to why im not moving with is simple. Though i would like too, i was cursed with white rythym unfortunately .
My favs are Bohemian Rhapsody, The Sound of Silence, and The Prayer - you will be astounded!
you are stunned, and the 'Mitch-slap' didn't even happen.
Love it!
Hi Britt. You can't go wrong with anything PTX does but "The Evolution Of Michael Jackson" is one of my favs. Hallelujah and Sound Of Silence are also very good. Keep making good choices of content. Great work.
I remember when this first came out on RUclips. I was constantly playing it. I loved daft punk songs and this was epic, and still is.
First time coming across you on the youtube, just wanted to say I love the energy!
Hey there Britt, can't believe Pentatonix are still together, I'd thought they'd split up. So great to hear this acappella group - sensational!!!!
Daft Punk's album "Discovery" is perfect. It's in my and many others top 10 albums ever. It's worth a listen.
My shoulders are twitching but I’m wrapped up in blankets like a burrito so I’m not dancing along.😀
I love the immediacy & honesty & emotion in your reactions! Thanks for sharing this with us 🤓
This is one of my favorites from Pentatonix. They did another one very similar to this, called "Love Again," but it's an original, not a cover. Citizen Queen is an all-girl acapella group like Pentatonix. You should check them out.
It's all them... vocals and sound effects!
90's DANCE MEDLEY!
To DIE for@🤣
Definitely time for you to look at Olena Uutai’s first performance on America’s Got Talent. Her ability to make unbelievable sounds is other-worldly. You will LOVE HER!
Re-watching your reaction and had to comment because that contacts story with your hubby is hilarious. Eye things freak me out so mad props.
Avi mentioned the sheet music for "Run To You." That would be a great next song to react to.
Given your reaction to Avi's (Bass) parts, you may want to check out his solo stuff. It's a lot more Folk than most of his work with Pentatonix, but definitely still great stuff. (He left the group, amicably, in 2017.)
I recommend 'Tumbleweed', 'Other Side', 'The Summit', and 'Change on the Rise', which has been described as "if testosterone was a song." 😁👍
You have to picture this - the record company drops them does not believe acapella would do $$ good - they take $400 film this in a closet - edit it in the kitchen - and win their first Emmy for it. They have never looked back! Oh I am so glad you are down the rabbit hole! Cant wait for you to react to Imagine - Mary did you know - The Prayer and Aha Singapore to name just a few of my favorites but oh so many more as well!
They're so great live.
And... there is a 10 hour loop of both this song and Love again on the tub-E or there used to be. Very hypnotic and nutz
That is an appropriate reaction to Pentatonix! 😁😁
Hey Brit, this is one of my favorite medleys by them. I was going to highly recommend love again which is an original by the group and it is cookoo bananas how they are able to accomplish what they do with it. What a joy to watch your reaction to this. Thank you
Oh man. You're going to love their original song, Love Again. It's also EDM but a Capella and Avi (the Bass) will break your brain in that one.
Yes it is a mashup of Daft Punk songs. Listen next to the "90's Dance Medley."
I hope you went and found one of the recordings of them doing this live ... pretty sure there's one of them just in an open room singing for a small audience. They're amazing.
Uh. . . in 2013 they were about...twenty one!!!...years old. Now, they're about 31, and still killin' it. So many BRILLIANT songs.
Vocal mastery, thank you for your reaction!
If you ever have the chance to see them in concert, I will tell you that it will be the BEST concert you'll experience.
Daft Punk was a Duo specialicing in EDM. Famous for their robotic sounding voices, made by vocoders and so on. It is said, they had a BIG influence on dance music over, I think 30 years.
When PTX performed this medley in Melbourne on stage, there appeared in the aufience 2 gentlemen, to thank them for their hard work, Daft Punk themselves.
Be safe dear.
