I really think you should react to the Champion themes for Gangplank. He technically has two. Captain Gangplank, and Gangplank, The Saltwater Scourge. But his main one is the second
@@osvaldokunz2436 The Pain from this and time to say goodbye is basically unforgettable, As soon As you hear the beginning u remember everything that happened in the show. Great job by Riot Games!
@@ZyrtiN Fortiche. Riot provided the "material" but Fortiche, the cast, and the people they got to do the music are the ones who deserve all the credit.
And the spine chilling goosebumps that the song makes you feel because its not only very well conscripted but played along the context of the show, you can't forget
@@almero8461 I love that they used his likeness so much! They also have a handful of league players likenesses in the last drop in the scene where Vander says "Don't mess with the man that pours the drinks"
So happy Ray Chen was given proper credit on this song! He is the violinist throughout this piece and deserves every bit of praise he receives for this song. His skill as a violinist and overall musicality is jawdropping.
I'm late, but I really liked when Sting was singing this live, and when the audience began to applaud everyone involved with the performance, Sting bowed, and then immediately presented Ray and was basically gesturing the audience to applaud him more. Real recognizes real
The mad man who composed this song and many others from Arcane (and LoL) is Alex Seaver, also known as Mako... kudos to him for making this amazing soundtrack
Not fully right one of the lead composers and the one who had controll over the orchestra and helped him a lot in making " What could have been " was Alex Temple. A true genius in his work.
The producer (well one of them, Mako) for this song actually did a livestream going over the entire composition process and played a bunch of the pre-production versions and showed the progressions of this composition. ruclips.net/video/_DegKNj62-w/видео.html
I still can't believe Mako is one of the producers. Knew them (when they were still a duo) from way back when they released Beam. Very proud of what Mako has been able to achieve
The final song “What could’ve been” Is brutal but so beautiful the lyrics fit so well with the ending and they had Sting sing it. Always gives me chills
Your editor needs a shoutout, man! You are my go-to reactions everytime and it's so funny because you have it all! The personality, the knowledge and the hype! ALSO, your editor always nail making simple moments really funny. Will always support you, Nato. Even if you forgot my shoutout! LOL
I feel like the violin is reacting/responding to what is sung. It's always either a desperate, painful outcry or an emotional outburst with lots of screaming and shouting when you pay attention to WHEN it happens
I didn't see anyone comment this yet but Ray Chen is also the BRILLIANT violinst behind the crazy amazing strings that were in "Awaken" with Valeric Brousard. He is beyond amazing. I also loved your breakdown of that song too!
You could dig into "warsongs": it's a riot created playlist of artist remixes of 'old' league music (old by 2016 standards) maybe something to stream rather than record, but it's rarely reviewed and quite the spectrum. Same goes for DJ Sona (kinetic, concussive, ethereal)
Every aspect of Arcane speaks to the story, including the music. The violin always represented Jinx's emotional state. Throughout it was mostly somber and/or discordant. In What Could Have Been it starts out the same way, then becomes like an inner conversation she's having between her thoughts (voice) and emotions (violin). You hear the violin build in the beginning as she works up her resolve to pull the trigger and then we get a flourish that is clean, strong, and confident like she's finally embraced who she is.
If you want one more reaction out of this, check out the live performance from the game awards last year. Watching Ray Chen go nuts on the violin solo was something else to see
the best song for the greatest cliffhanger to a season i have seen to this day loved the show loved the music loved the animation everything was perfect about this tragedy story
While “Snakes” will always be my favorite because of how awesome it sounds + the epic fight scene it played in- this track will always be a close second because of how much pure emotion was put into it to match the tone of the scene it plays in. It’s insane how much weight music truly holds.
"When is the next season? 7 more years? Yeah, I thought so" I felt so empty hearing him say that. But if that's what it takes to for the next season to hit the same, I'm gonna wait no matter what.
@@musabo9893 nah, they only said It would be less Time for the second season, so not 6 years, probably 5, but I could be wrong and It could come out next year
Yes., the idea of Arcane was made 6 years ago but the animation and plot was made at most 4 years ago with 2 or 3 years of animation and composing of music. Most of the time it was ideas being thrown around for higher up approval because a series/movie was still a big project as well as the idea of a garden and Katarina movie was in concept and even a story mode was made but then scraped. So since the animation techniques and the plot more defined and already made. The show would be at most 2 year wait or maybe 3 so 2023 we might see it
Always loved seeing you do these. It's sad that this is the last one, but was looking forward to this one, NOT DISAPPOINTED! Looking forward to season 2! Let's hope that this one doesn't take 6 years to make like season 1. Even if it does I'm sure it'll be perfect. Ray Chen is SUCH an amazing violinist and it's so amazing that they used his likeness in the show when zander starts to flip into humanitarian to politician. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! ♡♡♡♡♡
They actually can't afford a 6yrs time frame for s2. 1-2 years top if they want to ride the wave. The thing is, they could take 6yrs for a completely new story but not a continuation. Not only that, s1 was working from scratch but s2 isn't and I bet they've put more money and people into into it now cause they have confirmed it works and s1 brought them a lot of money. Well, granted Netflix holds. Still, it feels like to long of a wait cause the show was damn good
You could have a look at the This is war series from Falconshield. Its a really well produced rap battle style series of Videos of the different LoL Champions spitting bars. They are honestly criminally underwatched by all the new people coming in from Arcane. And since you have a background in rap it would be a pretty good fit for your channel.
Thanks RUclips for bringing this song back around again; they couldn't have found better artists than Sting and Ray Chen on this track. The whole soundtrack is a masterpiece to go with a masterpiece of an animation/story.
Every time I see your CT hat I think of work, as CT stands for Cycle Threshold, basically how many cycles it takes for DNA/RNA to duplicate before crossing the threshold in PCR (polymerase chain reaction). This is what we use to say if you have COVID-19, Influenza (flu), chlamydia, gonorrhoea, etc (depending on the kit we use)
It was a team effort by all accounts but @wearemako did a lot of the heavy lifting and his video breakdowns of some of the songs and are really fun to see him it down to the stems and temp vocals in LogicPro.
I think most of the arcane soundtrack was composed by Mako, who also worked on worlds songs like Legends never Die. He's done a video on the process of making what Could've been
i always love when i see joey make The Face xd you know, the one that looks so (respectfully) disgusted at how good the music is ahaha! congrats on finishing out the whole soundtrack, i really enjoyed these reactions
The next thing to continue to series is watch/re-act to the Bridging the Rift that league posted here on RUclips as a docuseries about the making of Arcane.
Two things : - The mad man who made this is Alexander Temple, and I seriously hope he'll get as big as the likes of Hans Zimmer. He made that shit for Arcane. - The fact that they didn't include Ray Chen's solo violin in the show still bugs me.
Nice, you just reacted to all major soundtracks, now it's time for the other ones! lol jk but seriously there are some incredible hidden gems in there I talked to you about it once in a video a while ago, but "Revenge" is just insanely amazing, and the "You're a Jinx!" that follows right after just tops it off perfectly Edit: Also, I think you'd love hearing to "Someone Just Volunteered" as well
did you ever do wildfire? its the lec spring song (lec is the EU region of LoL). it has two people on it that i would love to get your take on how well they did for being normal non singer/rappers.
hey i dont know if you ever did it or no, but i wanted to ask you if you could react to "Aurelion sol the star forger login screen music" its been my fav for a long time and still gives me goosebumps till this day

Why are you sleeping on PIXY? BEWITCHED, VILLAIN, ADDICTED, just pick one!
All this songs are so good that makes me that feeling that I wan totally watch it again but I already rewatch it like 5 time or more. 🥲

I still can't believe Mako is one of the producers. Knew them (when they were still a duo) from way back when they released Beam. Very proud of what Mako has been able to achieve
You can really feel the love poured into this song from that livestream. This is what art looks like when the people making it truly believe in it.
lol i cant stop watching this now
This is super cool to watch. Thanks for sharing!
Even now months later, I'm right there with Joey getting chills and goosebumps listening to this song.
3:12 Joey just unintentionally singing along made me chuckle for some reason
The final song “What could’ve been” Is brutal but so beautiful the lyrics fit so well with the ending and they had Sting sing it. Always gives me chills
This is by far the most emotional song in the show IMO
They start in the bridge powder singing
They end in the council with jinx 😥
Goodbye is also up there tho
And guns for hire too

that song plays in such an emotional scene too , its really a song that sticks in your mind for a bit after watching the finale

@@keyronkathrynekathrynkeyron so a serial killer?
Also he plays the violin solo part in Arcane when they’re watching someone perform on stage

Crystal Method doing Dj Sona is amazing!!
@@Adonna2424 my favourite is still concussive only because my brother and I would play DJ Sona and Project Jihn in bot lane.
That would be a cool thing to see on this channel, I agree.
I for sure am for a review of DJ Sona songs!!! I've loved those songs for so long

I’ve always thought of it as the first verse is her talking to Vi, and the second to Silco

I get chills every single time i hear this and the last 4 minutes of Arcane plays in my head... Amazing 🙌
the best song for the greatest cliffhanger to a season i have seen to this day
loved the show loved the music loved the animation
everything was perfect about this tragedy story
You've gotta watch the live version of the violin solo to appreciate Ray Chen even more
Hehard fucks up one of the lines tho. He said he didnt practice enough with the in ears
While “Snakes” will always be my favorite because of how awesome it sounds + the epic fight scene it played in- this track will always be a close second because of how much pure emotion was put into it to match the tone of the scene it plays in.
It’s insane how much weight music truly holds.
Out of all the music artist, coach or whatever that I've seen, you're the only one who really dissect the song and explain it to your viewers
The edit of your face into the thumbnail had me laughing for a good minute 😂 I really enjoyed all the arcane reactions!
"When is the next season? 7 more years? Yeah, I thought so" I felt so empty hearing him say that. But if that's what it takes to for the next season to hit the same, I'm gonna wait no matter what.

Heart broken all over again, and again. You gave the best Arcane soundtrack reactions.
Ladies and Gents, this is the moment we’ve been waiting for.
the thumbnail freeze frames are such god tier editing - I can't even put it into words how ahead of the game you are
This song is so beautiful and yet it leaves you empty, dead inside, you don't know what to do even though you're there, listening.
HE FINALLY DID IT!
Haven't even watched more than clips of this show but this SONG! This song hits hard.
Your editor did a great job for this! I was hoping he would include bits of your last arcane reaction.
Sting is an absolute legend, my favorite musical artist. Favorite song by him is “book of my life”
Chilling, amazing, perfection! Thanks for all the reactions Joey

That background instrumental is wild! Lucky Boy Nato on a reacting grind.
"Seven more years ?
Yeah I thought so."
I love you dude
That was the ending song of arcane season 1 and the scene was crazy
Gosh!!! Everytime i hear this it really feel so painful but extremely goodddd those lyrics tho❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Everytime this song plays all I can think of is that tragic ending.
This Journey though Arcane has been fantastic and i look forward to all new League content you react to and Here's to season 2!
Your reactions are the best! This song really is the most amazing of the soundtrack.
man, ive been waiting so bloody long for this one!
Just watched amumus "music video" and then this and I've never realized how similar they are in a way
Wait till he finds out that Ray Chen is the string
I was waiting it from the beginning!!!!!!!
This song legitimately made me weep
Ive been waiting for you to react to this! Probably my favorite arcane track
You can do a little bonus review of the live performance at The Game Awards. Ray Chen was incredible on the violin.
YEESSSSS IVE BEEN WAITING FOR SO LONG
This is my favorite ost in arcane so far. Tells more about jinx and vi, Vander and Silco.
nah man this song still to this day ALWAYS makes me sob
The song at 5:52 and beyond is simply orgasmic
God, I love this song so much! It is Arcane's Bond song!
it's been months and this song still cuts deep into my chest. it hurts.
[explosion]
The missile. Everybody's dead.
had 3 times chills watching this video , and i heard the song million times
It was a team effort by all accounts but @wearemako did a lot of the heavy lifting and his video breakdowns of some of the songs and are really fun to see him it down to the stems and temp vocals in LogicPro.

Hearing this song and watching the ending of Arcane was the first time the end of a tv series made me speechless
DUDE there was a new Riot Music for League of Legends Wild Rift Championships Icons 2022 called "NEVER STOP ME"... Must Try..
i always love when i see joey make The Face xd you know, the one that looks so (respectfully) disgusted at how good the music is ahaha!
congrats on finishing out the whole soundtrack, i really enjoyed these reactions
at 6:17 he actually realized that he couldn't analyze this further as it was actually a masterpiece
I really hope they working on a season 2 of arcane I need to know what happened after that rocket hit
Hey Joey! Great reaction, if you can react to some more league's themes. I would recommend Ekko, Aurelion Sol, Irelia, Taliyah and Samira.
And Camile is good too
The next thing to continue to series is watch/re-act to the Bridging the Rift that league posted here on RUclips as a docuseries about the making of Arcane.
9:14 well.. Ray Chen is the violinist playing those strings, so although it's a nice wordplay, doesn't make much sense here :P
Arcane season 2 gonna be wild doe 🔥
