    They had just been dropped by their record label, so with a budget of $400 they taped this in Avi and Kevin’s closet and edited it in the kitchen, and they won their first Grammy with this video.

    If you haven’t done it yet, their cover of gold is insane on the Mitch vocals. It’s a live single shot and mitch looks like what he’s doing is so pedestrian. It’s a fantastic cover. I’d recommend listening to the original first so you know what they were working with. Kiiara is the artist.

The studio they had rented fell through and, not letting them be defeated, they soldiered on, using the apartment. This and $400 won them their first Emmy.

    A lot of reactors miss Kirstin's "All around the World" because Avi's Television and Kevin's beat boxing are so amazing and happening at the same time. I usually watch each member in turn to see what they are doing. Kirstin, Mitch and Scott have been singing together since high school and they do amazing harmonies with each other. There is a live version they did without mikes in a greenroom somewhere. It blows your mind how close it is to this. The starts and stops are all them not production.

    You can tell Avi's eyes are really bloodshot, and that was because his contact lenses were irritating his eyes. But, what's incredible, is even through the discomfort he was feeling, he kept to the theme of not blinking. If you notice, at no point throughout the video, none of them blinked even once. There were a couple of times when they did close their eyes for a second while they sang, but it wasn't an unintentional blink. A bit of a fun fact for this, that's why Kevin was wearing those shades. He didn't want to keep his eyes open the whole time, as he had to focus on beatboxing, so he wore shades to obscure his eyes.

    As a metal head for decades I have to say Pentatonix are just phenomenal and this Daft Punk medley is absolutely amazing and it STILL blows me out of the water whenever I check out this video. It's also interesting that I also like many Daft Punk tunes and I know a ton of rock/metal musicians that are into Daft Punk as well while sharing my disdain for umph-umph-umph dance music. The same goes for many rock/metal musician friends (I'm a guitarist and song writer in a metal band as well as jumping in when a band needs a second guitarist for live performances and small tours). Daft Punk had a unique style that was universal, blending many different styles and wrote many melodic songs that pulled in non-dance music people.

    Mitch is in the first place a countertenor (the highest-pitched category of adult male voice), and then on top of that he's a professional singer and thus presumably has experience exercising the top of his range and probably also singing in his falsetto. So yes, he can hit high notes.

    Recommendations are tricky. It’s so hard to choose. Two of my favorites is an older original called Sing and a cover called Come Along. One with Avi & 1 with Matt. Come along is a cover of the UK indie artist Cosmo Sheldrake. I hadn’t heard of him until Pentatonix. What a name. Anyway it’s a really fun song that shows off everyone’s great voices. As always, their arrangement is much better than the original. Imo, that is. Thanks for exploring more PTX. There’s so much to come. ☮️💟

    I really think Kevin is the "engine" behind most of their songs, like a drummer in any band and Avi's bass...amazing! The rest are just as awesome. They don't have a weak spot! Mitch, Scott and Kirsten always get hype, just felt the need to kick Kevin and Avi some love.

    You need to react to the Daft Funk older video when they were in a green room. One of the first Pentatonix videos!!

      No. That performance was for a Make a Wish request and done after this but it does sound the same off mic. I believe it is a hospital room.

    Great reaction! I enjoyed your appreciation of everyone's qualities and the ingenuity of the arrangement. One friendly detail FYI: the word you want for a mashup of tunes is "medley" (med-lee, 2 syllables), which is different from "melody." And don't worry about kerrstin vs. keerstin -- it doesn't matter that much as long as you get "I" before "R", which you do.

    • @MetalGuyReacts
      @MetalGuyReacts  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thanks DelGuy! I’m not sure why I kept saying melody 😂 I totally know the difference I just kept messing up. I do record my videos “live” so when I started editing I did notice it but I don’t re-record. Just one of those things I left in 😊
      I got to make sure to get Kirstin’s name right though. She’s so amazing! And she kills it in this.

  • @xheralt
    @xheralt 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    "medley" (two syllables, no 'o') = the musician's technical term for a mashup. "melody" (three syllables, with the 'o') = the leading line of pitches; harmonies (if present) complement this line.
