About The Bloodthirster solo of new Pentakill

Sonic Adventure·Jul 22, 2017·5 votes·1,734 views

I have seen several comments of people not being sure if it's guitar during the whole thing, or guitar & keyboard, so I thought I would clarify it.

3:13 - guitar solo.
3:27 - guitar & keys harmonized.
3:31 - keyboard solo.

All the best \m/

Joe, why do you not have a Red name? :o

I think I would need to be a full time / in-house employee for that, not just work for specific projects such as this Pentakill release. Other guys such as Yorick and Mordekaiser are actual composers / sound designers for the game itself ;)

Oh. Didn't you do any other work before at Riot? I thought you also had a hand in Smite and Ignite. :P

Anyways, you guys have killed it so far with the new Pentakill album! I may have listened to Tear of the Goddess and Bloodthirster on repeat for more times since their release than I'd like to admit. :^ You can really feel that this was a collaborative passion project.

Smite and Ignite was actually what got me into the game. I loved, and was amazed by the idea and decision from a game company to make a full album giving priority to the music and vision, as opposed to just go for a commercial genre. It also included some of my favorite musicians such as Jorn Lande, ZP Threart or Derek Sherinian, so you can imagine how being here now is the coolest thing in the world for me. Thanks a lot for your words and I hope you enjoy the rest of the album : )
