They trained extensively for 5 years before debuting. They live together, they play together, they cry together and they excel together. With that kind of bond, how can they not sound the way they do?
@tokyobento oh I thought Hinata was the only one started late .. like she was recruited by Simon .. anyways it's good that we share some knowledge about the girls
Hinata did not in fact train with AVEX prior to the GALX project. The other girls were all part of Avex Training Academy prior to the project starting Hinata showed up because she had joined a local dance academy like only a few months prior and the instructors said "Hey this opportunity is coming up you should try out." But it was actually her singing that Simon was drawn to. She commented that she felt like all of the other girls were "Shiny and polished and she was unsure if she'd be able to handle herself in the unit."
I didn’t go to Houston one because I was stupid. I thought ticket price would drop the day of concert so I could get a cheap ticket, but i couldn’t find a ticket like 2 hours before concert. I learned my lesson by trying to be cheap. So many regrets. I hope they come to Houston again.😢
Do a little research about the First Take the whole point of that show is to prove or disprove whether artists have real talent. That's why the mics are on you can hear everything so people can't dispute whether they're real mics. There are artists that avoid that show because they know they're not going to sound as good
Many fans feel they sound better in this live first take version, than the actual video. If you want more heavenly vocals check out XG Vox, #1, #5 and #6 are my favorites
The premise of The F1rst Take is pure live vocals. Now, they did add a Gate to make sure the vocals don’t bleed. There are no post production processing as well. I just don’t like how some ppl really doubt how good they sound. They have an a-cappella version of this song on IG or TT where they are sitting on a staircase. And they’ve sang this song live on their concert.
Winter Without You First Take is the best vocal performance the girls have done and I mean that is a high bar but its immaculate. I LOVED it too cause you really got to see Hinata's ad-libs come through too.
I told ya these girls were selected from thousands of the best of the best of Japan 7 very talented young ladies and you can see it in eyes too Wolf 🐺 like hunger and they very beautiful too I love XG Alphaz ✌️ on deck XG for life XG world domination 🌏👸♥️🔥🧚♂️👽👌👍✌️
Check out XG singing Just Stand Up at their New DNA Showcase In Japan 2023. This is their first concert in their homeland Japan after they debut in 2022. 😃
The best way for them to show its live performance is when Chisa and Maya made changes in the way they sing their lines and ended the song with acapella while the MV just fades at the end
@@thebelovedone2 I’m sorry, I’m not going to take an opinion from a jaded, biased, narcissistic, “famous” (in his head), “musician/singers” words. He did Avril’s performance and dissected it as if she has the best vocals. We all know her nasally style vocals and she’s not a good example of live vocals. If you noticed, he picked and chose which one to critiq. AG is at least a little better, and I’m not an AG fan. But if you heard them live, they sound good. I guess he never heard of Gates especially performing at a space like that with microphones so close to each other. What projects has he done to make him relevant? All you see are videos about “fakery”. He released 1 effing album and heard some of his stuff. I’m a rock fan and no, he’s stuff is not it. I love how “famous” musicians think they can throw shade at artists who has done better than them. That’s quite alarming, doesn’t it?
@@daggerSLADE I actually agree to a certain degree but I think they used gating on their mics so the vocals won’t bleed on each other since the placing of the mics are quite close. Other than that, not much post. You’ve heard them sing this song a-cappella live with no mics and performing it on a staircase. So that’s that
There is a sound engineer for The First Take so some editing was done. Having said that not every artist sound this good there, those girls are extremely extra ordinary. ❤
Its Live is indeed live performance but it does have voice processing. However, Here are some shorts that can prove they can do this song easy acapella: 1: ruclips.net/user/shortsqICDSG4zNIY 2: ruclips.net/user/shortsbG892nzJIlA 3: ruclips.net/user/shorts5fKagw_m7Us
XG is all Japanese members (born and raised in Japan) all under XGALX group thanks a subsidiary of a a parent company of AVEX - a Japanese entertainment corp. trained in both Japan and Korea. Amazing journey!
I think a lot of what we are seeing goes back to this statement from Simon to the girls during training before they did their first live performance as trainees, I know it’s in ep xx early on but pause it as he is saying it and just look at their faces, that will tell you everything ‘If we fail, I take all the responsibility, don’t be afraid, rather just enjoy it all’
0:55 Yes they do need to leave it in or else people will cry fowl and say the whole thing was edited and not done live in one take, the noises are to prove the mic are LIVE and that they are SENSITIVE mics without any effects on it or else the shuffling would sound weird. I dont mind it, I think because this is the whole gimmick for the show, that its live and done in 1 take, so they do everything they can to prove that in non obtrusive ways, they have to sell it.
They're the real deal!! These girls are so good that there is actually a clip of all seven of them singing a part of this song live in a capella while they're sitting or standing on some stairs and it sounds just the same. Not to mention these seven girls are extremely talented dancers as well and most of them are very good rappers too. The leader Jurin and the two youngest members Maya and Cocona are already aces in the group after just two years. It's just a matter of time before XG blows up like BTS or BLACKPINK in America because they already are the first and so far only Japanese group in history to make it on the US charts
It feels a lot of groups are centered around a recording studio and doing mvs, XG was built to perform live, singng and dancing, this is one several reasons why they can do this, check out some their world tour performances, both their music and covers (Brittney Spears, Keshia Cole, Whitney Houston, Destiny’s Child)
@@roxyreactschannel XG didn't just do Destiny's Child- Say My Name on their 1st World Tour, they also did the following... Chisa- I Have Nothing (Whitney Houston). Chisa- Love (Keyshia Cole). Chisa- If I Were A Boy (Beyonce). Chisa- Made For Me (Muni Long). Chisa- Gonna Love Me (Teyana Taylor). Chisa- Toxic (Britney Spears). Juria- Hero (Mariah Carey). Juria- Trip (Ella Mai). Juria- Hello (Adele). Juria- Flavor Of Life (Hikaru Utada). Hinata- Take Me Away (Keyshia Cole). Hinata- Complicated (Avril Lavigne). Hinata- You Belong With Me (Taylor Swift).
This is a R&B/Hip Hop Japanese group that only sings in English with a smattering of Japanese/Korean in their rap solos. Four of the girls are hardcore rappers Coccona, Maya, Juria and Harvey. The Main singers are Chisa, Juria and Hinata. These voices are real, I have seen them recently in concert and they sang without any assistance from technology. You really need to do a deep dive into them. They fashion their music around famous American R&B and Hip Hop groups that they personally love to listen to.
The reason First Take leaves in the few seconds of the group moving to their positions is to affirm that the mics are turned up so you can trust what you hear is exactly the sounds made by the performers. There are a number of popular groups that will likely never perform on First Take… they would be exposed cuz there are no excuses… and as the title indicates … only one “First Take” so make it count!
"How?" Well... take 7 incredibly talented young girls (chosen from thousands of others), with an iron will & desire to succeed, train them extensively for 5 years, in all matters regarding singing, rapping & dancing, expose them to all kind of music & enrich their musical culture and here is the result: the perfect XG. Them & Babymonster, in my humble opinion, are the best idol girl groups on the whole planet right now, no question asked
This is why us fans always ask reactors to react to this version of Winter without you! I hear 2 parts that are different than the MV, one of Maya's runs 2:33-2:36 and one of Juria's runs 3:59-4:01 at the ends you can hear the difference between this and the MV. Not that is bad at all just that they vocally broke it up whereas in the MV they're both smooth all the way through.
So The First Take is a prestigious Japanese live show which used to feature mostly Japanese artists but lately the menu has been expanding and XG has been on, so has Itzy and SB19 doing an incredible version of MaPa and Gento. XG also did Shooting Star
This is The First Take. You sing live and you only get one take, it’s raw and unedited so no, they are not going to get rid of the shuffling sounds etc. If you claim to be a singer, you go here to prove that you can really sing live. It’s a very popular channel in Asia .
Simply put: Korean idol industrry. They are basically trained for years in singing, dancing, acting etc. And of course MASSIVE talent, they are AWESOME!
We are watching real uncut raw material from the world's best group. The rustling sounds highlight this isn't fake or prerecorded. You pushed your video gain too high. It's so distorted

I think they train waaay before 🤔 because they all were under AVEX ACADEMY before they auditioned for this project .. or I'm wrong tho
@ I know Harvey and Jurin were at the AVEX Academy. Not sure about the others.

The first 20sec is a must needed to prove this was live 💯
ALPHAZ ON DECK 🐺💪🔥💯😁
The mic is ON! 🎉
saw them live in Houston just a month ago.. girl they sound the same live. :) welcome to the awesome sounds of XG
You are living the DREAM
I didn’t go to Houston one because I was stupid. I thought ticket price would drop the day of concert so I could get a cheap ticket, but i couldn’t find a ticket like 2 hours before concert. I learned my lesson by trying to be cheap. So many regrets. I hope they come to Houston again.😢
How???? With yrs of practice, training & god given talent!! The most epic girl group I've heard & watched in yrs!!! 💖👑🐺
The "shuffling" proves the mics are "on".

I'm so ready
It's all them. They have done this song on their current tour as well, and it sounds beautiful.
The best way for them to show its live performance is when Chisa and Maya made changes in the way they sing their lines and ended the song with acapella while the MV just fades at the end
They were adding a little extra ✨spice
They are the best gg in decade.
Its like while we decide to go to uni. XG went to XGALX and AVEX artist academy for 5-7 years.
Yes it's good they left that's why it's called live not recorded you need to react on their world tour they are amazing
I might have to since I haven't gotten to see them live ❤️🩹
Besides their training, their manager Simon is a perfectionist and had five years to teach them that standard.
First take have been known to do post production but XG is still such a stellar group that they approach perfection
Proof?
