You talked about them going to a booth and recording it. I don't know if you've heard yet, but their vocals were recording in a closet. The music video was filmed in a kitchen/dining area. They only spent $400 recording Daft Punk! It's really crazy when you think about it. Then, you see them doing this song in the private performance, you just become more mesmerized with their talent! Also, be on the lookout for Avi's new album that comes out in just a couple of weeks. I'm really excited for it!
It is insane how great the editing is for the video. I wouldn’t figure it could have been done without some editing software but I sure wouldn’t have a clue where to start. Let alone to get anything like the official video is. But with this being a “live” version it looks so impromptu. Did they do post editing on it too before releasing? If so, I think that’s pretty impressive too cause they are all on screen so splicing together would sure take a very trained eye. Thus, their timing to remember all the stops, breaks and repeats (not sure what to call them) is even more insane. They are so incredibly talented. They know it too but not in a conceited way. They are always smiling and the love for what they are doing shows thru in every video. I love watching the behind the scenes bloopers, Superfruit and just being happy friends having a blast. They aren’t afraid to show us they’re people too. I feel that is what makes them so over the top incredible.
I don't believe this was officially released from the group as it was filmed on someone's camera. So, there would have been no production of any kind on it.
These performances usually are done before their VIP audience in a before-show event. But showing their pure talent and ability to blend and time a performance in this informal manner is simply beyond my ability to comprehend.
Happy Birthday. Thank you for reacting to this video of PTX performing for a Make-A- Wish young man. They grant a lot wishes for sick kids through Make-A Wish in different forms before concerts. You can see them doing it in several PTXperience videos. The kids are always so adorable it's kind of tear inducing.
There's a reason why Shawn Stockman called Avi and Kevin, meat and potatoes on The Sing Off (Season 3). They are 100% the foundation (and now Matt is) of this group. Their ability to hold down the bass and percussion lines allows the Trio (Mitch, Scott, Kirstie) to do the vocal gymnastics they are all so good at. And yeah you miss a lot of Avi's lowest notes in this because there is no mic, but you can see him still making the effort, so it definitely was there, just subaural.
From what I’ve read in comments audio recorded in the closet, video filmed and edited in the kitchen on a laptop. I don’t know if that’s 100% accurate, but I’ve read it many times in comments on the original and numerous reaction videos.
@@radbrad1935 If you watch/read multiple PTX interviews, you will see them talking about that themselves. Scott even mentioned it in their Grammy acceptance speech in 2014.
@@j.6133 That’s awesome. I haven’t found the time to search for any videos of them talking about it themselves, but I’m glad to hear that they made it public knowledge and that it’s not just repeated rumors from different comment sections on UA-cam. So much respect, that’s some awesome talent with incredible dedication to back it up.
@@radbrad1935 filmed in the kitchen, but they had their video production company do the editing. The same company they still use actually. They did the recording for a whopping total of $400, but they did have to pay something for the editing beyond that.
@@super_siri Oh ok, cool, I learned something new :) I didn’t know they had contact with a video production team at the time, knowing how the record label had dropped them 2 weeks after winning the sing-off, granted I know very little about the timeline of their early days. Only what I’ve read in youtube comments on reaction channels. (TLDR disclaimer for the ‘personal monologue’ that the rest of this comment became lol) I have to admit, while I’ve known about PTX for years, I wasn’t really one to explore much outside of my “comfort zone” growing up, which included music. I’m 30 now and grew up on classic Rock from my dad and country from my mom, so that was the majority of what I listened to with the occasional classical or jazz songs I explored due to my being in concert and jazz band from 5th grade through high school grad. A few of they’re early Christmas songs were the only things I’d heard from PTX until recently (Summer 2021) after I ‘rediscovered’ my first Peter Hollens and Tim Foust collab video that I’d initially seen around 7-8 years ago when it was first posted. That branched me out to Home Free first (because of Tim, but also due to my Country Music upbringing) then to Voiceplay and PTX shortly after, and since then I’ve found myself binging as much of all of they’re content as I have spare time for, and surprisingly following a number of different reactors to see other people’s opinions on these amazing artists. (I never understood the point of reaction channels and why anyone would watch someone else watch something, and admittedly I used to think they were kinda dumb :( oh if only I could tell my past self how dumb I was for ever thinking that lmao).
The diggery do sound is Avi doing overtone singing along with his bass note. Something I used to think was impossible. He has a demonstration video of it.
@@RollingDutchmann It's a thing in music where when you hit two discordant notes at the same time, they make a third note that just magically exists. It has a specific name, but I can't remember what it is. But it is a legitimate thing. I've seen two people hit two notes and then heard the third note created.
@@RollingDutchmann no there's another name for it. It's a like an optical illusion for your ear. The dissonance creates a third note where the frequencies combine.
Avi does all the wind noises and always did. Avi is the one who won the international acapella award that renamed it from beatboxer to rythmn section. He does quite a bit of beatboxing with Pentatonix sometimes to let Kevin breath for example. Try the Sing Strong seminars Avi and Kevin did where they demonstrate their teamwork. ua-cam.com/video/xnbwR9sIOPI/v-deo.html
try another live performance of "Aha" in Singapore be ready to have your mind blown. There is also their Live performance on their Christmas Special of Hallelujah---amazing. Enjoy!
Glad you had a great birthday Dennis! I'm so glad that you finally watched and reacted to this one. They are all just so excellent, even without electronic enhancements! I love going back and watching them do this and others in these private, off mic performances, showing that they are for real. I enjoyed the way you highlighted some of the key moments that you also found so cool.
Happy birthday!! Its a pretty safe bet if you see Kevin doing one beat boxing sound the other sound is Avi. Daft Punk live is a thing of beauty. You should also see them do Love again live, pop spring 2016 and aha live at the star vista Singapore.
Happy Birthday Dennis. Hope you had a good one. Nice reaction. More PTX please - their live performances are great. Not sure if you have reacted to The Lucky Ones Album. Love your pep talk at the end.
I would love to see you do a reaction to some Superfruit, especially their Future Friends album. There is a song on that album that very few people react to that is beautiful. It is called Goodbye From Lonely. It is one of my favorites on this album. Take a look at it. Happy Birthday!!! 💕💕🎉
For more live videos I recommend "Aha!" live in Singapore (Mitch kills it. ua-cam.com/video/aT2Nm4fYmI4/v-deo.html) and "Run to You" in Jacksonville Florida (ua-cam.com/video/2gQXF6YkMCU/v-deo.html there are homophobic protestors outside the venue and "Run to You" is with a single mic so they sang loud to drown out the protestors). Love the reaction!!
I don't think I've seen this one live, loved the original tho. If you want more I would recommend Love Again, or Can't Sleep Love which are original songs from them, and also the video "Evolution of Music"
I enjoy your reactions. You should check out Brian Hull and Peter Hollens with their Disney Genre challenges, Scott and Ryceejo's 10 year Disney Mashup, and BYU Noteworthy's Geronimo ua-cam.com/video/PjkVF_gRJl0/v-deo.html

No Auto tune, no digital effects, just Their vocals in a small room. No one can say the official video was tweaked.
I immediately refer anyone who has doubts about them to this video lmao
FYI The official version they did WASN'T done in a studio but in their closet at home.
That Avi making that noise 😁

Your reaction to their raw, brilliantly executed performance was enthralling. I'm glad you had a wonderful birthday with your loved ones.
5:45 perfectly said my man
Happy Birthday

The phaser sound and others is Avi and Kevin together.

I haven't seen this. It's sounds almost better than the produced version. I love this
Happy birthday 🎉🎉🎉
Happy birthday! 🎂🥳
Absolutely spot on reaction and analysis!
This performance was so often...The first time I heard it I was amazed at how close to the video it was. thanks for another good react D.
Happy birthday, Dennis!!!!!
The official video was actually recorded in Avi' s closet.

Happy Birthday, Dennis! Hope you have the best year, yet! 🎂🎈🎉🎁
I’ve seen them live twice and they sound just as amazing, if not better🥰
There are some videos of them recently singing live in the Bahamas. They sing this one too but with Matt of course. They’re amazing
Hey Dennis I hope your Birthday was filled with lots of goofiness and adventures!!! Keep Smiling 😃 it's contagious ☺️
The wooshing sounds at the beginning are Avi using throat singing while also holding down the bass FYI.
I thought it was a make a wish thing? Either way, this is epic, perfect for what it is.
Happy birthday!
It was a Make A Wish Foundation appearance. The description on the original clip says so.

That “whrrrr” sound is from Avi…check his “overtones” demonstration video.
They can be amazing live! Check out their song love again
live it’s so good!
Avi is making that swishing sound, not Kevin.
Happy Birthday !
Happy Birthday! I turned 43 earlier this year, its not so bad haha. Great reaction as always 🙂
Avi does the swishing wind sound in the. beginning.
🥳Hauʻoli lā Hānau🥳

It was a Private performance for a sick child as a part of Make a Wish program. It's in the description of the video.
Happy B'day! If you haven't already, you should check out Mitch's cover of Your Power by Billie Eilish. He is sooooo good!!
Happy birthday m8. Incredible how they still sound great even in a very bad recording like this.
where ya been? HBD
Not studio at all on original. Small room/closet and kitchen counter to create video. That they got their first Grammy. Oh on a $400 budget.
I can't hear Avi's B1's 😭
