RAPPER REACTS To | Pentatonix - Daft Punk (AMAZING!) 

don’t forget to subscribe guys if you want to see more ❤️

It may sound like sutotune, but you can find live/personal performances of this song that sound exactly the same.

Sorry no auto tune here friend. Just them.

They won a Grammy for this they filmed it yrs. ago in their apartment now pentatonix has a networth of 60 million . They’ve won 3 Grammy have been together 8 yrs. and they sound like this live in concert .

No autotune, all sounds and effects are them lol, they sound the same live. Please react to some of their evolution videos, Evolution of Music, Evolution of Micheal Jackson...you won't be disappointed :)

In their Grammy acceptance speak, Scott said they recorded this in their closet and filmed it in a kitchen.

“Kevin is absolutely awesome at beatboxing.” Understatement of the century!

Btw, can we just talk about how ADORABLE Kirsten's crooked little smile is?!?!

They create the effects themselves - no autotune. You should watch the “daft punk private performance” - it’s live and with no mics

Fun fact-this Grammy-winning arrangement has been reworked for marching band! The French military band played it for Macron on Bastille Day in 2017 or 2018.

There's a live video of them singing 🎶 this for some VIP fans - no microphones or mixing! Just them in a room w/people sitting on folding chairs! They sound pretty much just like this - just not as loud! It's amazing. ❤️

They a couple great originals. Check out "Sing", "Love Again" and "Happy Now"

Don't forget the love for Avi, he was their bass in this video and he's a reason that there are now "rhythmic" sections of acapella competitions instead of just "beatboxing" because as a bass he does so much cool and important rhythm in his songs along with Kevin the beatboxer, their sound works very hand in hand together

along with Kevin, Avi is doing those whistle notes. Avi can do overtone which is super impressive. Can't wait to see you react to their original songs also, enjoying your PTX reactions

Nope, no autotune. They pride themselves on not putting out anything they can't do live. Watch some of their live performances.

Scott Hoying is the blonde , Mitch grassi , Kirsten the only girl . Avi Kaplan bass he’s been replaced now . Beatboxer Kevin oslusa

They're so versatile. I admire their talent, but just as much I admire their work ethic. Hard, hard workers.

Watching him getting his mind blown, makes me smile. lolz

The video seemed just fine!! Also, being a Pentaholic is a personal state-of-mind...it's NOT a "club". You can be one and never tell a soul - although IT IS A POINT OF PRIDE!!!!! Welcome to the world of Pentatonix!!

They won a Grammy for this, Recorded sound in their closet did the video portions in Avi/Kevin's Kitchen think about that kind of talent...

Kevin is the Beatboxer, check out his page KO on You Tube. He celloboxes...he is so beyond talented. Also, there is a video of them doing this live, just as impressive. No auto tune

They are absolutely unique! Feels like divine providence that they came together and decided to make music for our enjoyment... or they are aliens!

Great reactions !!! Their cover of Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen is soooo good

I’ve gone down the rabbit hole of you reacting to Pentatonix! 😂 I just wanted to say that you look really nice in lavender and I’m really enjoying how enthusiastic you are about music! You’re a pleasure to watch!

**THERE ARE LITERALLY NO WORDS IN MY ENGLISH VOCABULARY, THAT CAN DESCRIBE THIS GROUP!!!** I have also come to the conclusion, that Mitch is an Alien, from the planet of WTF 🙃 😊🙃 I truly love how Pentatonix will put their own spin on a song, yet still manage to keep the integrity & respect the original artist.❣❣❣

They actually don't use auto tune. They are just that good 😁

How about them minor 9th chords at the beginning? The audio was recorded in Avi and Kevin’s closet, the video was recorded in their kitchen! It cost $400 (most was spent on editing); they won their 1st Grammy with this!

Your face reminds me of a child on Christmas morning, with all the presents Santa brought, and all the light shimmering on the tree. I love your reaction... !! This is my favorite group of such talented members. They know just how to arrange the songs, You are well on your way to being a Pentaholic!!

They got their first Grammy for their Daft Punk" medley. Well deserved. Thanks for reacting to PTX.

$400 + filmed in avi's kitchen + recorded in a closet = 1 Grammy They never do a song that they can't reproduce live. I officially dub you a pentaholic (sp?)

And Avi is more than a Bass. His effects and unique sounds enhances the awesomeness the Kevin lays down. Mindblowing! 🤯🤯🤯

Avi is the bass, but he isn't in the group anymore. Now, Matt is the bass, Scott (the blond guy) is the baritone (He cover up the bass when Matt or Avi is singing). The girl is Kirstin (mezzo soprano), the tenor is Mitch and Kevin, the beatboxer, cello player and singer, He's a tenor too. Xoxo from Brazil🇧🇷

Finally someone reacts like I expected everybody to react after Avi first says "never 𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕣"

Always fun to see reactions to PTX Daft Punk. They don't edit in the electronic sounds, they do them. Obviously, recording studio, in this case, closet studio, equipment gives the best quality of sound, but they only record things they can do live. I don't understand the limitations on reactors, it gives great exposure to artists. I don't see a down side. I hope you will get into some Christmas, and maybe some comparisons of their covers to originals. A great example would be "Gold" by kiara, and then their cover. Wishing you success with your channel.

chuckling....liked his before I even watched it. So excited to watch you get blown away. Given your rap background, check out their cover of Problem - Ariana Grande - you won't be disappointed. Great Reaction Bayo, thanks. See you on the next one :)

PTX is unbelievable. their hard work separates them from most other groups.

Pentatonix is just brilliant... breath taking

"Ooooh my gawd." We have all literally said this about PTX.

You're the first reactor I've heard refer to them as a band so early in your exposure to them! They ARE that good!!! So good, in fact, that you can pick and choose your own personal favorites from the songs that they cover on their channel and your viewers will still love your reactions!!!

You need to do Aha live at Singapore. The guy with the high voice (aka mitch) goes OFF in that song!!

One thing to make them even more amazing. There are no edits in this song. There are no electric effects of any sort. Even the "skips" were sung by them. They recorded it in the closet of an apartment and filmed the video in the kitchen. And won a Grammy award for the arrangement. They can reproduce it on stage - even without microphones.

You should watch them sing Hallelujah live!

Also if tou want to check out a live performance check out the live video of "Aha!! Live at the Star Plaza" They also have a live performance of "Hallelujah"

Pentatonix has always been amazing from the very beginning years ago. They never fail to impress!

I love how you just went stock still when Avi started singing.

Subscribed! Your energy is awesome and I’m loving your new found love for Pentatonix. They have won 3 Grammys and deserve so much more recognition

Love, love, love your reaction to Pentatonix. Much like my first reaction when I watched them win the Singoff.

I've heard them live in concert and I can confirm they sound the *exact same* in person as they do in their videos. They're brilliant!

The craziest part... you would think they use 'loop' to make those non-syllabic sounds, but they nail this LIVE on stage acapella. It's almost like they've invented a new form of audible art.

if you like Kevin's beatboxing,you should check out Homefree videos( Man of Constant Sorrow, butts remix, ring of fire featuring Avi Kaplan from Pentatonix) another acapella group but one that's a little more country style.

I’m rewatching this with you and literally every time you say something I’m reliving my exact reaction from years ago! Makes me happy to see someone else feelin the same way I do!! 😋

The first song starts your trip down the Pentatonix “rabbit hole”. I hope you will enjoy all the Pentatonix songs suggested. Gold (cover of Ciara’s song) is fabulous. Old song of Lourdes - Royals (when Pentatonix was just starting) really good! Have fun!

Imagine by John Lennon, my fav❣️Love your reactions

Kevin is awesome, period. He has a pre-med degree from Yale. He speaks five languages, including Mandarin. He's classically trained on piano, saxophone, and cello, and before Pentatonix ever heard of him he'd already performed at Carnegie Hall twice, once on saxophone and once on cello. He beatboxes *while* playing the cello, a technique that he invented and which he calls "celloboxing." He's one of the best beatboxers on the planet, if not *the* best, and on the rare occasions when he isn't too busy being the entire percussion section to solo he has a lovely tenor voice and is known for the beauty of his falsetto range (I'm not certain, but I *think* he can actually sing a bit higher than Mitch). But I've also heard him sing in the upper end of the baritone range. And when he laughs the whole world seems like a brighter place. The trio were very lucky to find Kevin, back when they were looking for a beatboxer to round out the band, and they readily acknowledge this fact.

Be aware. The bass here (Avi Kaplan) left the group in 2017-their pace of arranging-rehearsing-recording-touring was tough for him. Perfecting their sounds takes many many hours. Avi’s mom was ill-and he was having to fly home frequently. He helped choose the new bass, Matt Sallee. It may LOOK like they changed other members...but Mitch (counter-tenor, high male voice) is a chameleon-changing his hair and startle constantly. Kirstie has also changed her hair frequently. Avi is the only member who left and was replaced!!

Great reaction! I love seeing people discovering this amazing group. You won't want to miss their cover of Bohemian Rhapsody.

Still my favorite PTX is one of their origins "Run to you" But completely other style then Daft Punk

I took 2 seconds to like and subscribe because you seem like a nice person and I'd like to see more of your reactions. I could write a University paper on Pentatonix, I've been a super-fan since their first performance on The Sing Off. Scott (white hair) and Mitch (short black hair) met doing theater in Texas as kids, went to separate schools, and then went to the same high school. Scott and Kirstin were already best friends at that school. They made some videos as a trio, and then when a friend of Scott's did an earlier season of The Sing-Off, she suggested Scott form a bigger group and audition. (edited to add): This friend apparently told Scott "you could win that show." They found Kevin on RU-vid beatboxing while playing the cello, and Avi was already an established acapella artist. They met for the first time the DAY BEORE the audition for The Sing Off. Listen to their first performance and tell me it sounds like a one day rehearsal! On the show Shawn Stockman called Avi and Kevin "Meat and Potatoes" for how well they complimented each other.

Check out their video of the cover of Gold by Kiiara. It is amazing!! Mitch does with his voice live what Kiiara has to use machines for. They are that good.

You were saying you've not seen groups with a beatboxer - but there are a few great a cappella groups! I know you're only starting on the PTX journey, but the two other big groups: • Home Free - country group, their (award-winning) beatboxer is Adam Rupp, • VoicePlay - they're a pop/theatrical group, their beatboxer is Layne Stein,

As part of your ongoing PTX journey, you will probably like some of their live performances. That’s where you go to the next level of appreciation for how talented they are. AHA Singapore is amazing.

I worked a show of theirs in Chicago. When they came out for soundcheck I about fell over upon hearing them with just microphones. I thought that they were singing to a backing track. They are 100% real top to bottom, front to back. Avi has gone on to do some amazing solo work. You should check him out and do a reaction to one of his songs. They are all amazing.

pentatonix are the very best of the best. there is such richness within this group, Avi is the bass and does some beatboxing. his range is amazing, he has moved on to do his own thing and another has moved in.

Freaking FIRE. 🎸🔥🗽

I've subscribed to your channel and hit the notifications. You are so Fun to watch. You're a Sweet Guy. You haven't even scratched the surface of the pantatonix music catalog. Keep going and Thank you For your Reaction

The fact that they managed ALL of this on 40$ a mom’s closet, and some halloween props is… amazing

So fun fact about Kevin (beatboxer) and Avi (bass), they both do both, there's a video somewhere of them switching between parts of the rhythm section depending on what's needed. Also Scott (tall blonde) sometimes does the bass line when Avi is singing main tune, like in their It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year. Avi also has done some incredible solo stuff lately

I'm sure someone else has already told you this but...the "Grammy Awards" literally modified a previous category in order to include PTX and award them their first (of three, to date) Grammy Awards, specifically for this song/medley/music video!

Everyone gets Mitch slapped. Lol he is amazing. The whole group is stunning.❤️🇨🇦

watch the acceptance of their Grammy for "Daft Punk" on RU-vid. They are so humble and down to earth.

Home Free is another a cappella group that sings with a beatboxer. They are amazing. For a bit of different genres try their 'Butts Remix'. It has rock, country, and hiphop. When listening it is hard to remember there are no instruments.

I know I'm like a month late on this, but I've been watching a bunch of reactions on this because I only discovered it myself recently and I have to give you major credit because you point out things that musicians, song composers, vocalists, etc. don't touch on. Nicely done man. I also really respect that you held off mentioning the elements of the video until a bit in.

Kevin does the beatboxing, and Avi is the bass. They do work together to make the melody. Avi can blow speakers with his bass if you haven't seen that, it's pretty crazy.

Kevin, the beatboxer, also has a great tenor voice with a wide range. Also plays cello, sometimes with PTX, and speaks Mandarin.

You should see Pentatonix live. Nothing beats their energy.

I think the first time someone watches ptx and fall in love with them, you're already a pentaholic. Because we all know it's inevitable anyway.

Kevin does almost all the effects. They are all contributing whoosh sounds. Avi often follows Kevin's kick drum with a bass push that makes it sound like one thing, but it is really both of them. If you do like this kind of energy, then try Love Again for more crazy dance club techno and Sing for happy energy. In fact, Sing is a great way to kick start a sluggish morning when you are in covid lockdown.

No auto tune here. What you are hearing is their voices and only their voices. These 5 are the most talented vocalists I’ve ever heard

OH NO, you said auto tune, hold onto your pants......

Very glad you found a method to get it uploaded and not blocked! cheers mate! great reaction!

when talent +a $200 shoe-string budget +great video editing = GRAMMY!! like the others said NO autotune, just PURE TALENT. ;) if you can check out their debut on the SingOff tv series. they did it LIVE on TV!(that's where I 1st learned about them!)

They won their first Grammy with that song

This was Their 1st of their 3 Grammy wins. It was produced in a kitchen and filmed in a closet and did it for $400

Welcome to the wonderful world of PTX where there is no autocue just stand out amazing a capella music!

No autotune...they never record what they can't perform live. Now, they do balance sound and that kind of thing when onstage to ensure everyone is heard, but their voices are their voices.

i am a 66 yr. old gramma and you are one of my favorite reactors and can i say that you are so adorably cute!!! Love your accent!!!

This medley sounds like a wonderful firework.

Would love for you to react to Pentatonix original "Love Again" Kevin(beat boxer) and Avi(bass) Kill it. And of course Mitch's vocals are amazing 😁💜

you'll need to watch the show 'sing-off' when they won the top prize.... that was the start of it all... and, when they won the show, three of them were only 19 years old....

No apologies necessary! Everybody has the same problem and interruptions are expected... love your reactions!!

Kevin is a technical beast - some of the videos from their tour show them sitting around working out the arrangements for new live tracks...he'll say things like ' do you want a note, or a sound...series of sounds ? '..... then he'll come up with something that everyone thinks fits best... his solo channel is awesome when you get time to chk it out.

It's the accent, Bayo, it's the accent! ;-) Love your reactions. And there is a home video of them doing this song in front of a single cell phone, and they sound exactly the same ALL their 'effects' are from them.

Their label is ridiculously hard on reactors, and I don't know why. Pentatonix made a name for themselves on RU-vid after they had won a televised acapella competition on NBC that aired for 4 years. Sony Music Entertainment offered a recording contract to the winner of The Sing-Off and Pentatonix won season 3. One week after winning the label dropped them saying they didn't believe acapella music could be competitive in mainstream music. I have no idea why Sony even offered a record deal as part of a prize for an acapella competition if they felt that way in the first place. But the point is Pentatonix went on and did things on their own using RU-vid because that's where members had first uploaded acapella music videos from The Trio (the three main lyricists) and Kevin (the beatboxer) did cello boxing videos before they ever became a group for the sole purpose of auditioning for The Sing-Off. And they made a name for themselves because people remembered them from The Sing-Off and became patrons and allowed them to make music videos and EP's. But it was all on RU-vid and they wanted people to see what they were doing and to watch it and air it because that was advertising and it got their work out to a larger audience. When are RCA signed them Sony went crazy blocking everything because RCA is a subsidiary of Sony Music Entertainment. Sony didn't even want Pentatonix to start with and now it's like they block everything that would be beneficial to them being heard. I don't think they get the promotion that they need in order to be known even though they won three Grammys already and had platinum and gold selling albums. So I don't know why Sony blocks reactors that react to their music since the label doesn't exactly get them out there in mainstream and get them some air time. It's not like it's taking money out of Sony's pocket because they're not even putting them on the radio. don't feel bad. everybody that reacts to them has to edit the reactions and have pauses in order to get the videos uploaded and past Sony's copyright strikes. I think you're doing a superb job!

This song won them their first Grammy.

Not auto-tuned AT ALL. There is a video of them doing this song in a room, no mics or anything. IT WAS AWESOME!!!!!

Zero auto tune.

Kevin is the beat boxer, and Avi is the bass, it's honestly pretty freaky how low he can go but pretty badass sounding as well.

The one thing I really love about Pentatonix is their group as a whole. Like, in their songs usually each person has a part to sing and the others will just do back vocals to help accentuate the current leads part BUT there are times when more than one person is singing. Whether one person is singing or more, the lead is always able to be heard clearly and the collective singers always compliment one another. It makes every song they do, whether upbeat or more somber, sound so good.

Kevin you've got correct. Avi is bass ( beard) , Mitch tenor and more, Kristin, And Scott. Scott, Mitch and Kristin have been together since childhood. The 5 went on "sing off" and won. Watch them from the beginning. There's nothing they can't sing. Watch any song. Sing, The little drummer boy" Carol of the Bells" Bohemian Rhapsody, the evolution of music. And all

Bayo...You are such a nice young man...such a difference from me to you....I am an old lady and you so young yet music brought us together here. I had never heard of beat boxing or Daft Punk before I started watching Reaction videos two weeks ago. Its wonderful. I love your comments and you are enjoying the music and so am I!
