Announcement:
Hey friends,
I want to let you know that my ENTIRE catalog of album reactions is now just 5 dollars!

Enjoy!
Edit: grammatical error.
My friends,
I will be posting a livestream about this on tomorrow the 4th at 12:30pm ET, but I am going to be going on a mental health leave from reactions for the time being. 1 reaction will be posted every Monday until June, which will be the final reaction I post for now. You may see me post the odd reaction for a new song that drops that I am excited to do but that's it, no more schedules and regular uploads aside from the weekly Monday video. It's been a monumentally stressful month and an even more stressful 24 hours, which was the straw that broke the camels back. I don't know when, or if, I will be coming back to reactions.
I apologize, and part of me feels like I let you guys down, but my promise to myself and you is I always put 100% of myself into my art and I refuse to phone it in. So if I'm not all in with this, It's not right for me to continue.
I want to thank you for the support, the love, and for sticking by my side through everything. You are literally the reason I have been doing this for this long. Without you guys I would have stopped a while ago. I don't think I would have had the heart to walk away if this all didn't blow up yesterday, because that's the hardest part, letting go of the thing that has become a part of all of your lives, and mine.
I won't be stepping away from entertainment altogether, and in the wake of this I will be continuing my podcast and committing 100% to my dream of making an impact in our world in any way I can. This is the Act 2 of my life. The foundation of what I know has been shattered along with my identity, who I think I am, what I think I do, and how I see my potential. And now I am stepping into the great unknown: Mexico, Central America, and South America. Wherever this life leads me. Prepare for possible vlogs of my adventures in the center of the Earth. So, if you want to continue our relationship, albeit in a different way, I would love to see you all over on the podcast/vlog side of things.
All in all, thank you for everything and I hope you choose to stay in my life if that's something that resonates with you, because we are just at the beginning of something new, and I don't even have the slightest clue of where it will lead.
With love,
Anton
Hey friends! What would you love our next theme of the week to be?
Alright friends! What would you love our next rock theme of the week to be?
Alright friends! What would you love our next theme of the week to be?
Genre: Easy Listening
Hey friends! As we discussed in our livestream, would you enjoy a theme of the week or theme of the month more?
Example of themes include: 80s Pop, 90s Alternative, 2000s radio rock, 80s Metal, etc.
1. Theme of the Week: We vote on a theme, choose 3 artists and react to 1 song by each artist. Every week is a new theme and new artists. It doesn't become as immersive but we cover more ground.
2. Theme of the Month: We vote on a theme, choose 4 artists and react to 3 songs by each artist. We focus on one of these artists every week. This allows for more immersion in a genre and respective artists. You will LOVE it when your genre is being explored but may have to wait longer between themes you enjoy.
The overwhelming sentiment about merging the channels has been positive, so I will be posting all rock reactions to this channel moving forward.
I am also going to be doing a livestream Friday (2:30pm ET) where I am going to share with you my current plan for how I want to do reactions over the next couple years and how I want to evolve this channel. And at the end I will be answering all your questions!
I look forward to seeing you all there :)
I may start shouting out comments that make me laugh... and if I do I have to give the first shoutout to you @ericfreeman273, bro you are my spirit animal and I love your comments.
"Anton, you're always so friggin' dude" 😂
Hey friends!
Many of you have mentioned that it would be easier to not have to go back and forth between channels and you wish content wasn't segregated as it is now (as it used to be a few years ago). Because of this I am planning on merging the channels together and moving the rock channel and blue channel together.
If this happens I will still have the same content schedule for both kinds of music (3 videos per week of easy listening music and 3 videos of rock). I am hoping this simplifies things for all of you and makes life even less stressful, especially for new members who have recently joined our community.
Feel free to leave any questions or concerns below and I will answer them :)

Dear community,
I don't talk directly to you guys much as most of our talking is done on the Discord platform (I recommend you take a moment to join and look around, it's a lot of fun and has many exclusive perks). I know many of you might have your reasons for not wanting to join a community online, chief among them is likely simply the technology barrier is stressful for some of you. Anyway, the point of this post is I want to share with you all some recent changes that have been in the works behind the scenes for the past few months.
NEW PATREON STRUCTURE
I want to take this opportunity to share the new Patreon structure for anyone who may have been a patron in the past, as I have remodeled it to be cheaper for all of you. It is now as follows:
Tier 1: $5 - Theme of the month Voting, blocked videos
Tier 2: $10 (Value tier) - Album reactions and song requests (they are guaranteed)
Tier 3: $20 (Premium tier) - Reduced view count requirement for song requests
LIVE REACTIONS
I record all our videos live on Twitch weekly (Tues and Wed) and I invite you guys to join in, everyone who attends say they LOVE it!
IDEAS AND FEEDBACK
Lastly, I want to take a moment now to address any questions or concerns you may have about the channel or the content. Any question or piece of constructive criticism is fair game as long as it is respectful. So please go ahead and leave a comment below and I will spend the next few days replying to ALL of them personally. Feel free to leave good feedback or any ideas in general if you would like. I feel I have things well thought out at this point but I am always welcome to ideas I may have not thought of.
Thank you all for taking the time to read this and thank you to all of you who have supported me over the past 2 years, I sincerely appreciate you all. And thank you for your patience while I grow as a content creator, overcome challenges, take risks, and learn from my mistakes (and successes), as all pioneers do. I am never satisfied with emulating the status queue and staying stagnant. So if you choose to continue on this journey with me, you can bet there will continue to be changes, I will continue to push the envelope and embark on new horizons... it will certainly never be boring. I can promise you that.

Welcome to Anton Reacts!
I create music reactions with an emphasis on lyrical analysis.
PLEASE NOTE
All hard rock and metal reactions have been re-uploaded from my old channel (Anton Reacts To Rock) to the "Hard Rock & Metal" playlist on this channel and are not public or searchable on YouTube.
