Thanks for sharing, GenociderX! I had a lot of fun working on this!

Great job on it! It fits the whole theme around Jhin very well. The first half to 1:05 reminds me of him pursuing his targets. And the second reminds me of how he visions his victims. In his own way of course. You guys keep producing more and more great music and i believe will continue to do so. I still listen to the project: Theme while 'm doing other stuff lol.

I especially enjoy the reloading cadance you put in. After hearing Gypsy talk about his fixation with the number four, you can really see him going through the motions. Prime, aim, fire, reload ...

Did you use an actual gun for the noises?

Actually, these are all gun sounds from his kit :) RiotUtora, who did all the sounds and VO for Jhin, gave me his raw material and I turned it into what you heard.

Still badass, this is probably on par in my book with Ekko's theme, which has to be my favorite one ever

Are there any hidden 4's in the song we should know about?

Yes, plenty! The melody is (mostly) built around 4 note motifs.

Sorry for off topic, but is riot aware of the free skins glitch with the new draft mode?

This. Piece. Is. Excellent.

Great Job, Riot.

I really enjoy having the gun's sounds as a percussion. It really reinforces the fact that he sees his killing as an art form. Almost as if this the kind of thing he is hearing when he is firing at his target.

And then when the shots end is when the target is dead and falling. His piece is complete, and the rest is merely the requiem or coda, in conclusion.

Fantastic work. My regards, and thanks, to Ed and anyone else who contributed.

Yeah - it's all about action and reaction - 1 2 3 4 boom/choir/beauty.

Thanks so much for your kind words!

Thing is, it's a bit like Kindred's login. It's good, just not particularly memorable like Braum's, Quinn's, Diana's, Ekko's or TK's :O

Really? Because I remember Kindred and Ekko's quite clearly.

OurLestradeJan 15, 20161 votes

All I remember from Kindred is that there's a lot of Game of Thrones-esque strings :P And I meant that all those people I listed after were more memorable. Kind of messed my sentence up there, apologies

Karma DeifiedJan 16, 20162 votes

This theme sounds pretty epic but it doesn't fit Jhin. It's gunshots over elf-like music. It has that intro to a middle ages mmo feel, I can just imagine the camera moving quickly over wide grassy fields on the way to a battlefield before we hear the sound of swords clashing with the final moments of the arrangement showing our hero receiving his mighty weapon from cloaked mages.

Agent 47 and Ave Maria Jhin and ???

But I guess it's already finalized.

To expand

A brief thought on Ave Maria

Imagine 47 slowly walking through a location, with a plan in mind. He delivers a silenced bullet to a target and proceeds to wipe all trace of him being there. His steps in tune with the soft vocals. A very theatrical assassination.

Calm Confident

With this Jhin theme.

Imagine Jhin running through a palace of some sorts, he's being chased. He takes a moment to duck into cover. But he is spotted, he's running again, he quickly turns and takes out one of his pursuers. There is calm again, he's planning his next move when he wanders into a large room filled with valuables and murals across the walls and ceilings. He looks over it slowly, taking it all in. He knows what he will do, a grand heist, but he hears his pursuers yet again, ideas flash through his head and he smirks, he's ready to take them all on.

Tension Anxiousness

Indiana Jhin

Jhin is so calm, all is premeditated, a work of art, little pieces of a whole perfect killing.

But this theme says he acts on instinct and split second decisions.

CaythelesJan 16, 20161 votes

Going to stop ye, Jhin is simply finds the Art when the bullet is fired,

The gun sounds show the preperation and the devotion jhin has, and the classical shows more of his Ecstasy of the act he is about to commit as he pulls and or is about to pull the trigger.

He stands infront of his mirror, readying his guns,

then walks out of the room.

reaching his destination,

prepares his weapon,

and begins to fire once ready,

The bullets dance through the hearts as he fires, tick tick tick tick BOOM.

Jhin leaves no survivors,

The sudden scilence followed by a tear down jhins eye at the work that he has done. he sees the blood flow from his victims swooping out likea meadow spawning from each body, time slows around him as he feels the orgasms from every part ofhis body aswell as his gun.

He then leaves the scene in slow, as the flowers grow from behind him,

The curtain drops.

Karma DeifiedJan 16, 20161 votes

I must strongly disagree!

The gun sounds are too quick, the classical is of course, perfect.

But Jhin is a not a simple fap session, he does not fire on his targets until they die then have his sage time to think about the beauty.

He does not go to his destination, he circles it, taking in the moment before the performance. He anticipates the work of art he will make of his target.

He spots his target but it's not the right time. He waits for the perfect spot and fires the first round.

He taunts them as they begin to run, coxing them to make his play more spectacular.

They think they've escaped but he has the high ground, he calmly fires the second shot.

They take refuge after surviving the last two encounters. Thinking distance has saved them, all they need to do is...

One.. The slow pierce bringing them to a limp

Two.. The shot that drops them to their knees

Three... The shot through the right side of the chest, a reminder of who's in control

Four... The finale

Jhin bows with his work complete and leaves the stage.

Actually, after thinking about it, this theme is Draven's music. "Subtle? I don't do subtle."

ChatillonJan 17, 20161 votes

as a writer, slow clap for you, this is good. as a jhin hype fan i think this is how he is meant to feel

Oh, thank you! I was afraid this thread had been abandoned.

Odyssey85Jan 16, 20162 votes

Ah jeez after listening to that piece I had chills all over me. This is exactly the type of effect Jhin should have on an individual, very well made and well done with the music Ed and Gypsy for the creation of such a character

lolipopevelynnJan 16, 20162 votes

ever since the ekko theme music they have really been on a roll. the GP login is my fav so far. very thematic. jhins login is pretty much identical to that in terms of theme. the pirate chanting and ship drums in GPs theme and now the gun reloading in jhins.

morris1Jan 16, 20161 votes

Completely agreed on every point. I still whistle GP's theme every now and then.

StigtriXJan 18, 20162 votes

Yes! I really like the different breaks and dynamic composition. Kind of a hybrid between Unreal Tournament music and a Hollywood sci-fi blockbuster :P

SolerianJan 15, 20161 votes

RottedApplesJan 15, 20161 votes

beautiful.

High5Jan 16, 20161 votes

Super cool. It sounded to me like the first 1:30 is the despair, anger and chaos. The 2nd part is the struggle and lonliness. Right at 2:18 is what I would define as Jihn. The shift again at 3:16 was really cool as it's the beginning of Jihn reforming his environment, making things more beautiful, but in his image.

AlëkJan 16, 20161 votes

Great job!!!!! I could literally envision jhin as a conductor in an orchestra waving his hands around to an invisible melody that only he could see.

Honestly this is a masterpiece, the best login to date and fits the character so well. i wish i can buy the song to support ore rather than having it on an infinite loop on itunes.

This is true. But that gun cocking was just beautiful and I couldn't find the words to type.

RiizqJan 16, 20161 votes

The music sounds so villainous in this part 0:10 - 0:40

Then from 1:30 it is so serene And wow this part 3:23 reminds me of Halo OST.

My favorite part is 0:00 - 4:19 xD

This is a masterpiece !!! And are you by any chance an Aatrox main? (If you get the pun) Loved it.

I think this is absolutely amazing the theme. I love almost all the themes and login screens. I really loved the video of seeing the process of how they create the music, like for Amumu. I would love to be able to see the videos of the orchestras playing the music. Its amazing seeing the orchestra play the music of the game I absolutely love.
