Hey Anthony, thank you for reacting to my request as I said you are great and very talented, my friend!! My name is Greek, not Russian!!! Thank you again
Apologies for the mistake, good Sir. Thank you once more for the request!
@Anthony Ray Reacts haha no need for apologies there are a lot of russian people that are named dimitris but since you asked I come from Greece, no worries
An understandable confusion: ~50% of Russians have Greek names
I was about to say. Cuz it's a Greek name. Greek or Latin names are common in Russia. I am Russian, by the way.
They made this video with a $400 budget and filmed it in a closet in one of their apartments. They won their first grammy with this video! They currently have 3 grammies, and their original album Evergreen was also up for a nomination. It's amazing what they can do with their voices. Kevin, the beatboxer, also plays cello. He created cello boxing! It's how Pentatonix found Kevin. Kevin had released a video of cello boxing and it went viral the same week they were searching for a beat boxer. He initially said no, as he was graduating from Yale with a pre-med degree. He decided to give the show a chance, and the rest is history!! Avi Kaplin left the group in 2017 for personal reasons, and Matt took over as a new bass singer. I love Matt the most! He had huge shoes to fill, and he did so magnificently!!
The very idea of winning a Grammy with $400 and a frickin' ring light still blows my mind (I know that doesn't include editing, but still)!
@@jerolddavis Can't Hold Us - Pentatonix (Macklemore & Ryan Lewis cover) love this fun cover
@@lynharkins9670 Always a good one to go back to!
No they won the Grammy for the arrangement
And then two of them came out of the closet 😂
Since you love rap music, you may want to watch their cover of "Can't Hold Us". Scott, Mitch and Kirstie (rhymes with thirsty) all rap in it. I also love their mashup of "La La Latch", with Avi as their bass singer. Sound of Silence is amazing too. Matt does an excellent job in that video.
This won a Grammy. Kevin can play the cello at the same time he beatboxes. Celloboxing.
Lets not forget the sax just not in songs yet and his tenor singing voice. Oh and can never forget his sing-off flugle horn!!!
You’re an excellent beatboxer! This video and Hallelujah both featured their old member Avi (the one with long hair) who was their bass. Now they have Matt (white jacket in Sound of Silence) who joined late 2017. I recommend their 90s Dance Medley to be your next video!
YES! 90's Dance Medley!
That was funny.
Do you know who else enjoyed this?
My neighbors. Lol
Mitch is considered a counter tenor.
I have heard that he can sing above soprano.
This was indeed an EPIC video.
I want to thank you AND the person who paid for the request.
New Rules x Are you That Somebody would be a good one. Kevin and Matt shine on that one
Woo-hoo, way to go with the beatboxing! I’m so glad you’re continuing with Pentatonix. It makes me happy when people who know music appreciate their work. It reinforces my own untrained appreciation. There’s a mini-beatbox-battle in their cover of Last Christmas. Kevin seems to be the type of guy who welcome the challenge. Love watching you as you come to know PTX! Keep ‘em coming. Peace … Oh, and don’t worry about blurring or obscuring the videos. As long as you can see it clearly, we’re fine.
There is only one word that can describe Pentatonix, and that is TALENT ✨
Avi, the bass (beard). He was known for blowing stadium speakers. If you type in Pentatonix Singapore Aha! live. You will hear when Avi's base blew a speaker, yet they carried on. What also makes it extra special is when Mitch is on. The story goes that he was jetlagged and chugged two or three red bulls to give him energy. It makes for an amazing performance.
They won The Sing Off in 2011. They made a guest starring appearance on
America's Got Talent as non-competitors a couple of years after that.
The founding members are:-
Scott Hoying (tall blond guy, natural baritone but has an impressive five-to-six octave range, can go all the way up to high tenor and down to bass, sings the bass lines when the usual bass.
Scott Hoying (tall blond guy, natural baritone but has an impressive five-to-six octave range, can go all the way up to high tenor and down to bass, sings the bass lines when the usual bass singer takes the lead);
Kirstin "Kirstie" (Rhvmes with
"Thirsty") Maldonado (the only female member, natural mezzo soprano, but can go down to low alto and as high as upper soprano, also can sing in whistle notes that are off the scale);
Mitch Grassi (a true contra-tenor, can hit high notes in his chest voice with ease and go WAY higher in his falsetto, also. She just got engaged.
Mitch Grassi (a true contra-tenor, can hit high notes in his chest voice with ease and go WAY higher in his falsetto, also with ease); and
Avriel "Avi" Kaplan (dark beard and long hair, true basso profundo, trained as an opera singer, also can go up into the tenor range;
Kevin "KO" Olusola (beatboxer extraordinaire, also is a world-class cellist who plays cello on some of their songs, has a beautiful high tenor voice and gets occasional lead vocal solos as well, graduated pre-med from Yale and speaks several languages including Mandarin Chinese.
Kirstie, Scott & Mitch grew up together in Arlington, Texas, and began performing together as children in local youth musical theater. They ended up in high school together and performed in the choir. While there, they formed an a cappella group called The Trio which had several performance videos go viral on TH-cam, most notably a cover of Lady Gaga's "Telephone". The three of them are best friends and consider themselves to be almost siblings.
Scott & Kirstie (who were a class vear ahead of Mitch) both graduated high school in 2010 and went their separate ways to different colleges, Scott at USC.
While at USC, Scott joined a USC-based a cappella group called the SoCal VoCals, where he met alumnus Ben Bram, who was now an arranger and vocal coach for the NBC TV show The Sing Off, an a cappella competition show. Ben convinced Scott to get The Trio to audition for the show. The three reunited (Mitch had to skip high school graduation ceremonies to go) in Los Angeles for the audition.
They found out that the rules had changed, so they needed at least five members to audition. Ben put them together with Avi (a native of Visalia, California), who he knew from Avi's performing days at Mount San Antonio College in California. They found Kevin (from Kentucky) through one of his TH-cam videos that had gone viral featuring him playing the cello and beatboxing at the same time, a talent that Kevin coined as "Cello-Boxing".
Kevin arrived in Los Angeles literally the day before the audition! Scott came up with the name "Pentatonix" after the pentatonic scale.
They performed a re-arrangement of "The Telephone" for the audition and passed, despite having been together as a five-piece group for less that 24 hours!
They won The Sing Off that season (all of the performances are available on TH-cam), in which they received a substantial cash prize AND a record contract with Epic Records.
They pooled their prize winnings together and all moved to Los Angeles, and all got apartments right next door to each other in the same building. But just a week later, Epic dropped them because the marketing people didn't think an a cappella group could sell records.
Instead of giving up, they were determined and began recording their own songs on TH-cam, hiring Ben Bram as their producer and arranger. These usually consisted of the five of them but when their cover of a medley of songs by Daft Punk not only went super-viral, but also won them their first Grammy, they were promoted all the way up to RCA Records, Sony's top label.
They began writing and producing their own songs in addition to their covers, began putting out a Christmas album just about annually (which has become their best-selling genre), and have had multi-platinum album sales, sold-out world tours, and have won two additional Grammys.
Avi began getting burned out with all of the touring and heavy recording schedule, was suffering from anxiety and personal problems, and learned that his mother had been diagnosed with cancer in 2017. He announced he was departing from the group and taking some time away from the music industry.
Matt Sallee (from Baltimore) was brought in as the new bass singer in early 2018. When he attended the audition for the group, he had already mastered the Bass part for most if not all their past catalogue. He was successful and has proved that he fits in well with the group. After a year away from music, Avi has now returned as a phenomenal solo artist in the Folk/Americana/Roots genre.
Ben Bram has been in charge of their production, including arranging and directing from the beginning. He is often referred to as the sixth member. Scott and Kevin are major players in the arrangements, but every member contributes. He just got engaged to Kirstie.
Also, all members are songwriters for both Pentatonix and their own solo work. Ed Boyer who mixes everything of theirs (even the HWB Livestream) is the one who pulled Ben Bram into the sing off in the first place.
They have been nominated for a 4th Grammy. Ed Boyer who mixes everything of theirs (even the HWB Livestream) is the one who pulled Ben Bram into the sing off in the first place.
They have been nominated for a 4th Grammy for their album Evergreen.
Kirstie became a new mum which caused a pause in touring after their Evergreen Christmas tour 2021.
They just got their a star on the Hollywood walk of fame.
Thank you for showing the incredible talent of a beatboxer. It is hard to believe those sounds come from a human.
There was a TV show here in the states, I believe called "The Sing Off", I remember Sara Burrellus, Jewel and other famous artists were the judges. It was all tryouts by groups that only sang acapella. That is where I first saw Penatonix! Followed them ever since! Thanks for recognizing their sound and tight harmonies!❤
And all of the Sing Off performances by both PTX and HF are available on You Tube. HF had already established their sound was touring in rural US when they decided to audition for the show, but PTX had only formed as a 5 member group a few weeks before their audition and actually got together for the first time the day before their audition! Their journey through the competition really shows their talent and growth. The You Tuber Mrduckbear11's clips of the whow include the intros and the judges commentary with an occassional short outro interview with PTX. It's interesting to see reactors views as compared to those of the judges. Whether it's something Anthony might not want to react to, he might enoy delving into those very early live performances just for himself. -- I recommend them for anyone discovering PTX who wants to know their story.
Avi is an amazing bass. he has his own youtube channel as well. you should hear him do overtones..its freaky and wonderful.
Since leaving PTX he has really blossomed as a singer songwriter. 'Change on the Rise' will blow you away.
Yes please to all of Avi
I think you would love their cover of Imagine. There is a story in their video that I think our world needs to hear these days! I love your NF reactions as much as PTX!!! The other acapella group you would love is Voiceplay. They just released their new video Valhalla Calling. The bass singer will blow your ears off!!
Yes he would love Imagine!
PTX cover of 'Imagine' is the most creative thing I have seen in a while, making one hell of a social statement while they were at it. The song itself is iconic because it is timeless, it will always apply until Humanity dies out completely. It is timeless because John was a GENIUS.
PTX did more than just an average job at covering it. They always have a spin on the things they do, besides the innovation that any A Capella group must have. PTX is the top of the Pop Music pile for many great reasons; their cover of Imagine is just one of them. :)
PTX is a voice technical wonder...their arrangements are exquisite and all of them have their very personal sound which together melts into perfect harmony. Avi, now soloartist, is incredible! The sensational about him is the soothing tone in his voice, laidback but still very powerful when needed to be. I have read a lot of comments from his solo vids and a lot of people thanks him, telling him that he have help them through hard times because of his music and that special soothing voice he have and I agree, you become calm listening to him.
Damn Bro! You can beatbox!!!!! So freaking good. Subscribed because of your PTX reaction AND your obvious talent!
Why am I just now learning that Anthony can beat box? New talent unlocked lol
I am SO glad you have discovered Pentatonix with the rest of the world. They are the best. Soon you will be a Pentaholic How about reacting to their music: "Mary Did You Know", "Bohemian Rhapsody", "The Prayer", "Amazing Grace", "Imagine", "Evolution of Music"...
This is a band that is said gets out of each other's way musically. I agree 👍👍👍
I'm a HUGE pentaholix since 2013
And im so glad u reacted to them 🥺🥺
Great reaction. They won their 1st Grammy for this. You are very good at beatboxing. You need to check out Kevin at the Christmas Spectacular. He plays the cello and beatboxes. He does it in a few videos but this is a concert. I was fortunate enough to be able to see this tour. It is amazing what he does! Please continue reacting to them..
I'm about 1/2 a year late, but I really loved this reaction (it might just be my fav)! 1, When you basically showed what and how Avi (insane bass, bassboxinging I think he calls it) and Kevins' beatboxing/percussion, which can prove naysayers wrong about the sounds not being possibly done with only voice, as you did it on the fly as you listened! 2, Your true appreciation of their abilities, always bringing attention to Avi n Kevins' parts that I feel many can inadvertently overlook, and by doing that get more folks not so familiar with PTX, like myself, a full understanding & appreciation for these incredibly talanted humans!
Thank you for the great reaction to this awesome Pentatonix video. Glad that you enjoyed it. I hope that you will do more reactions to Pentatonix videos. That was some impressive beatboxing that you were doing.
Hey your good! I think you would love their original "Love Again". Killer bass and beat boxing and they look amazing.
I've subscribed and I'll watch every review of Pentatonix you do. Thank you so much!
This is a worthy Grammy winner! If you liked this, you will LOVE their original EDM track 'Love Again' where Kevin does some amazing beatboxing and Avi does some equally amazing bass drops.
And check the live performance!!!
You are the first beat box reactor I have found. Love the attention you gave to the beat boxing in this video and appreciate you sharing your expertise to teach us.
Also, I love liked it so much you returned to your native state lol.
Quite impressive, sir! This was a very entertaining reaction! Came here first for Bo Burnham, then stayed for PTX! Hey Jamie really has my taste in music! Thank you for your thoughts, appreciation & talented ear (and mouth)!
Since you like Kevin's beatboxing, a good video would be Kevin's fifth. It is Kevin's cello boxing solo from their 2022 Christmas tour. It's on the PTX Weekly News channel.
Thank you for the beatboxing info❤
I love how you just seem to have so much fun with your reactions.
Loved the last comment about your neighbors enjoying this song too.
They won an Academy Award for this video.
Loveee this PTX cover
Watch closely, they don't blink. one of my favorites.
Thanks, so much for more Pentatonix! I love them.
Their live private performance of the Daft Punk Medley is also worth checking out. It shut up a lot of people who thought that they couldn't possibly do this song live as well as it was done in the video, or that their talent was all production.
It boggles me that you have such great beatboxing abilities ! Rapper, writing abilities, great bass singer voice, and beatboxing... very talented you are 😮
You know it’s real when Anthony goes full Dutch
Hello there ! So you entered there too ! Fun facts, you did this the other way round from me... I was into them before BTS. Then they made an a capella mash up of Dynamite and Butter (brillant) and that’s how I started up my BTS journey... since then, I’m still sailing on purple wave !
Wait till he gets to “Can You Feel the Love Tonight”!!! 😂
We gave no problem with you covering it. We are here to watch another person discover the amaziness that is PTX.
Thanks for the reaction. As a pentatonic it’s always fun watching great reactions. I subbed and can’t wait to check out some of your other stuff. Your beat boxing is crazy good. Love your ear for the breakdown of individual parts.
They do this live as they don’t do something they can’t repeat live. There are some impromptu videos and they hit all the “techno” sounds and breaks as if you were listening to this.
Very much enjoyed this video!
knew u had to react to this so amazeing
Brilliant Reaction... (Best I've seen yet)
Pretty Brilliant beat boxing as well. Thank you.
I found out about them many years ago when they released Evolution of Music. I was totally blown away by this medley!
Subbed and liked. Loved your reaction.
Kirstin's flirty smirk and direct eye contact in this video is amazing.
Really enjoyed your reaction and beatboxing. Thanks. 🤗
Thank you for sharing with the neighbors.
Wow Anthony you are a really good beatboxer! This was the most entertained I've been today. 😊
Lets go! This is a vibe!!
What fun to watch you absolutely get into this. Your beatboxing is amazing! And then….You just lost it and switched languages. Love it!
You would love Pentatonix's cover of "Gold" - it's done in one take and so clean. And their original, "Love Again" is my absolute favorite - Kevin and Avi in beast mode. And I 100% recommend Avi's solo work, start with "Change on the Rise," "Chains," and go from there for an emotional journey. I'm a therapist and I use Avi's music when I'm working with clients struggling with deep emotions.
New sub. You hooked me with your sick beat boxing and analysis of the same. Well done!
I appreciate your beat boxing. I always have a hard time comprehending what Kevin is doing. Having others demonstrate is great.
Oh baby... prepare for a ride! so happy you found this one!!! much ♥♥
Nuff said. This n Radio Head cover will always remain my faves to this day. ❤❤
Anthony, love your reaction. Great chair dancing, lol.
Wow, you are an amazing beatboxer! Love your attention to details…
Bro, when you switched to full Dutch I lost it. Great reaction man!
Hey Anthony. Love your reactions. Love your personality! Have a good day😊
Mitch Grassi is the Counter Tenor with the high voice. If you continue to watch their stuff you will see what an incredible talent he is! They are all incredibly talented . . . Mitch has that little extra Umph!!
Great reaction😁 love it. Next watch Pentatonix evolution of music
That was fun to watch!
Slick beatboxing on your commentary.
As much as I love Kevin in pentatonix, the best beatboxer of the acapella groups is actually Adam Rupp in Home Free. He can make a vocal harmonica (Man of Constant Sorrow), turn table (Butts Medley) and has his own Drum solo.
Not to mention his digeridoo, vehicle and building noises, nature and animal sounds, his ability to sing while beatboxing, and I am sure countless other skills! Adam amazes me every time I listen to Home Free! ❤
If you want to see the low notes Avi Kaplan can hit then you should check out their cover of AHA live in Singapore. It is a fan recorded video but so worth the watch.
It is - but better yet, check out his solo work!
Anthony, YOU are a fantastic beatboxer yourself!
Don't know if your Twitch chat told you, but they recorded the song in a closet and the video in Avi and Kevin's kitchen. They spent $400 on this video and won their first Grammy for best arrangement.
This was not recorded during a livestream
I saw them perform this live twice. Amazing.
You are funny and entertaining. Great reaction, spot-on beatboxing…you’re pretty amazing as well!
A most entertaining reaction! From a very talented guy, too, it seems.
waiting for the reaction on Pentatonix's 90s dance medley
Had no idea you part of the bbx scene bro. Nice work.
The ptx rabbit hole is a blast too Anthony. Check out can’t hold us it’s a vibe 👍
Heard you mention Castellucci, I love love love him. I love VoicePlay so much.
And I Welcome you to Avi Kaplan, also a wonderful bass, been said to speakers too 😁
From an Armyholic, *"Enjoy your discovery journey of awesomeness"* 💜
great video - wouldn't mind seeing your reaction to their 90's dance medley, especially if you can analyze how the hell they make some of those beats with only their mouths
You are great beatboxer and really funny!
Thanks for your reaction... I landed to your channel last year trough BTS reactions... And Pentatonix is one of my favorites groups after BTS ... Although I knew them before my bangtan 😊

Regards from México
I loved your reaction. It was really cool to hear you identifying the different beats and rhythms. Not many people can keep up with the maestro aka Kevin. Perhaps the biggest complement I can give you is that, if the unthinkable happens and Kevin leaves for some reason, I think PTX should let you audition for his spot. Laughing. You are obviously v talented. Do u work in this line professionally (I.e beatboxing)?
What a good beatboxer you are, great ! If I can give you an advice, listen with headphones, I swear the experience is different, so much more precise and you'll hear all the details on the bass that really, you can't enjoy equally without. They're amazing .. you should check Can't hold us or Gold by Kiara. In this one they're live, on a coach, and this is special. Thanks for this moment and hope you'll continue to react to PTX 😘
Your own beatboxing is on point. 👏🙌
I'm a proud Pentaholic!
Funny you should mention being from Mars. Scott (the tall blonde guy) last year came out with his first solo single called Mars. It's amazing!
Thanks for playin'! ❤
After all these years, I still cannot get over that 3 of them went to the same high school together. So hard to imagine that such diverse talent ended up all in one place at the same time and they became besties.
Check out their version of Bohemian Rhapsody or The Prayer. Amazing!
Great reaction. Do not worry. PTX is well supported. Millions of subscribers and Billions of views. Millions of records sold and sold out tours. They are all millionaires and are living the good life........ Glad you found them. Can't wait until your next reaction to them. Thanks.
Bro your beatbox skills off the fuckin chain god damn, nice
Loved that last line. 😅
I recommend, "Bohemian Rhapsody," their original, "Love Again," and their upgrade of Kiiara's "Gold."
Im the person who is easily impressed by how the background effects are to support the main voice
There are lots of versions of this live and they get all the sounds and skipping record effects in each one. That's always surprising to me that their live performances are equally good. (your beatboxing is amazing!!) - Avi really hits those low notes.....he trained as an operatic basso profundo! There's a video of him performing with Home Free and they have a bass trade-off that's pretty amazing.
Omg Anthony RAYYYYYY 🙌🏾
This is the best reaction I’ve watched to this video.
I follow everything you do Brotha but dammnnnnnn your beat boxing skills are 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Please please please do more Acapella.
The pentatonix do a crazy Revolution of MJ mix. I saw them live a couple of weeks ago and they sound exactly the same as their videos. It’s is crazy.
Love ya work bro 🖤💛❤️👊🏽
They won their first grammy with Daft Punk.
Loved the comment about the neighbours at the end. 😂
If you want to see an EDM style original, check out Love Again! Loved your reaction!!
They did this video in 1 take.
Ren, Pentatonix, Harry Mack... on how many roads will I meet you? Thanks, this is great.
90s medley 🔥🔥🔥
