详细介绍

James Alan "Jim" Johnston is an American music composer who has been working for WWE since 1985. His work is often accredited to the names Jim Johnston, James A. Johnston and James Alan Johnston.

Johnston's chief role in WWE is providing the soundtrack for WWE programming, in addition to providing musical content for WWE's large output of video games and website content. Johnston achieved fame for producing many of the memorable entrance theme songs for the WWE Superstars, including The Undertaker, The Rock, and "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, amongst hundreds of others superstars, many of which have been released on commercial albums and through iTunes.

Beyond superstar entrance themes, Johnston also composes music for the majority of WWE's PPV and Television productions, including show themes, music videos, vignettes, commercials and tributes. He likens his work to that of scoring a live action movie, "“A standard scenario is we get a call from our executive producer: ‘We’ve got a new guy coming,' or ‘He’s breaking out of a tag team and he needs music.' It's like scoring for a movie: Is he a good guy or a bad guy? Is he light and svelte and quick-moving, which dictates a fast tempo, or is he a big plodding kind of a guy, in which case you need a big, heavy, the-wrath-of-God-is-coming-upon-us sound?"

Johnston has mentioned in past interviews that he suffers from stage fright and a fear of live audiences, and it was this fear that led to him seeking a more 'studio oriented' music career. His first job in the entertainment business was working with MTV and VH1 to create bumpers and commercial cues, before a chance meeting in a sushi restaurant with a WWF producer led to him joining Vince McMahon's professional wrestling company. Initially composing TV themes for shows and commercial buffers as they were needed, Johnston gravitated towards becoming complete Composer, Director and Producer of Music for the company.
