Kevin is the beatboxer. Matt is the current bass, taking Avi’s place in 2017. They spent $400. making this in one of their apartments, and won a Grammy for it. Super talented group!

[@thechomiji]

Spent $400 filming and recording sound, because their studio day fell through, But it was professionally edited and mixed after that.

[@charlottevan_8]

@@thechomiji Actually, they didn't record or film this themselves. This was recorded in a closet in Avi and Kevin's shared LA apartment, and the video shot in their kitchen with black sheets hung behind them. As with many of their subsequent videos, the filming, recording, and editing was all done by FifGen Films. This industry article interviewing Jimmy Bates of FifGen gives the lowdown on how this happened, and how they all had to shift gears quickly when the original plan fell through. strobist.blogspot.com/2013/11/pentatonix-daft-punk-video-low-budget.html

[@melissacoviello2886]

Grammy award winning! The are absolutely genius’s

[@johnclibbens6803]

Kevin is the beatboxer (Matt is the bass who replaced Avi). Nice reaction.

[@melissacoviello2886]

Check out Bohemian Rhapsody and the prayer and you’ll be continually shocked and amazed at how stunning they are every time!

[@chrispavlich9656]

You should react to their 90’s Dance Medley. I think you would enjoy that.

[@vidsorama2]

This is a medley of 7 songs by the duo (band) named Daft Punk. Thank you for reacting to this awesome early Pentatonix video.

[@philipkudrna5643]

Next stops on your PTX journey: (my recommendations): Sound if Silence, 90ies Dance medley, Havanna, Amazing Grace, Shallow and rather be…

[@xbubblehead]

Attempting to learn their names after just one song is just awesome. They really must have struck a chord with you!

[@margretrosenberg420]

You can't go wrong with anything from Pentatonix, but here are my recommendations: • Think of a song you don't like, either because you've heard it too many times or because you've heard too many bad covers of it. Type the name of that song into KZbin's search engine, but add either "PTX" or "Pentatonix." If they've performed it, that will find their version of it. Once you find a song you dislike that Pentatonix has performed, listen to Pentatonix's version of it. It will likely become your new favorite. Some of *my* favorites are: • "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy" (their second Grammy winner) • "Jolene" (Performed with Dolly Parton, still gorgeous at the age of 71. This was their third Grammy winner. It was the first time *Dolly* ever won a Grammy for "Jolene"!) • "Imagine." (Be sure to watch the official video - it's the visual effects that make this one an upgrade instead of a cover, and those can't be duplicated live. Also, be sure to watch it all the way to the end - it's easy to think it's over before it actually is.) • "The Prayer." • "O Come All Ye Faithful." (Yes, I know that's a Christmas song. Doesn't matter. You'll love it year-round.) • "Seasons of Love." • "Bohemian Rhapsody." • "Sound of Silence." • "Thank You." (Written by Scott and his fiancee Mark Manio during or just after COVID lockdown. Not a cappella - Scott plays piano and Kevin plays cello. Gorgeous love song.) • "Havana." • "Prayers For This World."

[@Gwennedd]

Awesome list! To which I'll add: Shallow, Perfect, Be My Eyes, Dreams and Say Something.

[@margretrosenberg420]

I should add that "Prayers For This World" is also not a cappella. It's from their 2022 Christmas album, _Holidays Around The World,_ which had as its theme collaborations with artists from other countries and on other continents, most of which had to be done long distance due to travel restrictions because of the pandemic. So most of the songs on the album include instruments, and those instruments aren't obvious on the official video the way they normally are when it's Pentatonix playing the instruments themselves or doing an in-person collaboration.

[@Bonofox1]

💥👉They won their first Grammy for this arrangement. KEVIN or K.O is the beatboxer. Matt is not in this video he came in to replace Avi in late 2017.

[@thechomiji]

This was my first Pentatonix song! Our daughter sent it to me because she thought I might like it. I did, but it wasn't until he pandemic lockdown that I really came to value its mood-lifting awesomeness, and looked into their other music. You called beatboxer Kevin "Matt" - so, now you should check out some more recent music that includes the actual Matt! For an anthem comparable to Hallelujah, try Amazing Grace. For another club banger medley, try the 90s Dance Medley. Subscribing for more Pentatonix!

[@AnjeannetteMarie-Swifie4Ever]

Early PTX masterpiece 🔥❤️🙌

[@jamescurfman3284]

Masterpiece enough to get them their first Grammy! :)

[@louellamoyer5578]

Subbed for more PTX! Keep reacting to Pentatonix and the Pentaholics (fans) will flock to your channel! We're a die hard bunch of people but very forgiving and kind!

[@reginairvine3919]

That song Run to You that Avi mentioned at the end of the video is amazing.

[@philipkudrna5643]

They won a gramny for this - and the video was a low budget production and was shot in Avi‘s flat in a closet!

[@shirleymoffat3338]

So many great songs to listen to from PTX - and as you like basses, you might want to check out Avi's solo work since he left Pentatonix in 2017. Start with 'Change on the Rise' - you'll be blown away. By the way - 'Run to You', - that they mentioned at the end of the video is absolutely fantastic!

[@michellepotter9541]

Love your reactions!!

[@doughaviland1729]

Another early "production number" is their original, LOVE AGAIN! Mind melter!❤ Keep them coming Lucy!😊

[@ianb8656]

Amazing!

[@xboxbml]

Kevin on Beatbox…only change that has happened is Avi left a few years ago and Matt took his place..

[@alfredh3071]

Hey LucieV love your reactions to this and your others as well. As you go through, keep an eye on release dates, that way you can see how they’ve grown. A really fun one to react to, would Can’t Hold Us, an early offering that was the beginning of their use of an actual production company. There’s even a behind-the-scenes video to go with it. You better have a pillow on the desk for your jaw to fall on.

[@rayhutchinson640]

Great reaction! I love their original songs as much as their covers. Please consider reacting to ANY song on their channel that looks interesting to you. They're ALL great!!!

[@dawgeral333]

Very good!!! You got all the names! Love your enthusiasm!!! I've been a Pentaholic since 2012! It was their version of "Somebody That I Used To Know". Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@FilibertoSchender]

Meraviglioso Bravissimi Mai visto niente del genere.

[@ericgaudet5488]

Great job with your reaction and thoughts on this cover from the Pentatonix. l don't know if you check out there cover of Sound of Silence if not you should it's incredible.

[@ericgaudet5488]

@@lucievreacts Your welcome Lucie keep up the great work with your channel . By the way you have very beautiful eyes.

[@kathrynphelps9771]

Kevin is the beat boxer, he's been there from their start. Avi left and Matt replaced him on bass. In 2017.

[@tammielongino7485]

YOU JUST LISTENED TO THE NUMBER ONE A CAPELLA GROUP IN THE WORLD 🌎. I🎵❤🎶

[@allendesalme197]

Hey Lucie - have you learned another adverb than "fricking"? 😁😁😎😎Just giving you trouble. Like your reactions...close on the names but it is Kevin on the beatboxing - Matt is the other black man who replaced Avi as the bass when Avi left the group...watch Kevin Olusola doing his one-man band version of Marian Hill''s "Down"

[@allendesalme197]

Watch their "90's Dance Medley..."

[@randallshelp4017]

you loving this song is the European in you. not a joke. I lived in London and Moscow and I could not believe locals love for crappy beats. I also love bangers and mash and vodka...

[@Masq1980]

New Sub here to follow you down the PTX rabbit hole! Us Pentaholics love discovering new people seeing the diversity and glorious talent of these five alien unicorns! Choose anything from their collection and you will never be disappointed. Recommend their 90's Dance Medley, Bohemian Rhapsody, Imagine, Any of their Evolution songs (Music, Arianna Grande, Beyoncé, Michael Jackson, or Rhianna), Mary Did You Know, The Prayer, Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone), and check out one of their Originals in a Daft Punk similar style called "Love Again".

[@df5199]

Recommend their cover of Sound Of Silence.

[@frankhartranft1588]

Amazing Grace by Pentatonix also

[@susanricketts8916]

Mary did you know, The Prayer, Shallow, Say something, Imagine, Oh Come Al ye Faithful just a few of my favorites. Also Superfruit, Defying Gravity.

[@philipkudrna5643]

And once you are done with the PTX rabbit hole, I recommend you discover more of the Philippines‘ insane female singers like Morissette Amon („never enough“), Gigi de Lana („Through the fire / piano in the dark“) or Katrina Velarde („l surrender“)!

[@cicero.a.s.silveira]

Hello everything is fine? You need to react to Cantor Gabriel Henrique, he's from Brazil. 🇧🇷 Several KZbins of reactions in the world react to it. Gabriel Henrique being on AGT 2023 which is still being recorded! He's phenomenal and super Mariah Carey fam. He even did several covers of it with WHISTLE Phenomenal!!!

[@frankhartranft1588]

Pentatonix - The recording of Evergreen - thanks

[@patbrewer4205]

Try the acapella Chorus (11) members B Voctave recommend Disney Princess Melody

[@michaelrunnels7660]

If you react to The Prayer I think it will become your new favorite. Then if you react to Sound of Silence it will become your new favorite. Then if you react to Oh Come All Ye Faithful it will become your new favorite. Same with Can You Feel the Love Tonight.

[@philipkudrna5643]

And one more remark: you will experience copy right problems, once your channel grows larger. You will have to blur the video (which is not a problem, as most your viewers know the video anyways…)

[@stonemansteveiii3135]

It's Kevin on beatbox. What accent is that, if you don't mind me asking?

[@Badger77722]

VoicePlay, another a cappella group you've reacted to, just released their newest video, Valhalla Calling. It's a sequel to their My Mother Told Me video, both with Viking roots. While it doesn't really matter what order you view them in, I'd still recommend My Mother followed closely by Valhalla - I don't think you'll be disappointed in either! For PTX: try one that's a little off the beaten path - Come Along.

[@randallshelp4017]

you like bass. Geoff Castellucci sol and him with Voice Play. you will cry. I did.

[@EDITOORU]

This is not better than the originals lmao it's just an beatbox cover, but they are very talented and i really liked their cover.

[@pjb3583]

Good, huh? New subscriber, here for all the Pentatonix you want to experience. Peace …

[@randallshelp4017]

solo

[@derrickcox7761]

Try a PTX original...Love Again.

[@texadian3392]

Yep, like a lot of other people have probably already said - they only spent $400 (pre-production, i.e. on makeup costumes, contacts, and the like), and thanks to a last-minute fall-through with their original filming location the video was filmed in Kevin and Avi's kitchen (they were sharing an apartment/house? at the time) and the sound was apparently recorded in one of the closets in the house as well. One thing that even a lot of Pentaholics don't know is that the first Grammy Award Pentatonix received - "Best Arrangement, Instrumental, or A Cappella," was essentially changed in order to give it to them. Up until 2015 (the year they first won it), the award had always been for "Best Instrumental," "Best Instrumental Arrangement," or some variation thereof, since 1963. The award category was essentially changed in order to award PTX with their first Grammy.

[@randykovack4472]

Jinger .. Pices

[@johnejonesea7448]

You're going to be saying "so good" a lot.
