Best of Wrath of the Lich King - Music & Ambience | World of Warcraft

Northrend is the northern, icy continent of the world of Azeroth, and the source of the evil Scourge. It is also the home of Icecrown Citadel, the seat of the malevolent Lich King.
Often called "the roof of the world", Northrend is a frozen wasteland that lies far to the north. It is one of the most infamous locations in all of Azeroth. As with the other continents, it was once part of the original Kalimdor landmass that was broken apart during the Sundering. The area was the birthplace of numerous would-be empires, though not all managed to survive to the modern day, and even fewer in the forms they originally took.

It took me forever to complete this video. I hope you like it; I am very exhausted now. Thank you for watching. /sleep Did you enjoy this video?

[@hawkstrike18]

Wait, when did you start typing "bellow" with one l?! That's not the Meisio I knew... 🧐😁 I hope you slept (& can generally sleep) fine (during these hot days). Imma leave this vid for later again... gotta get out of bed every once in a while, lol. But will watch it soonTM!

[@Meisio]

@@hawkstrike18+ Being a non-native is hard. Especially when you type 'below' :) I was / still am extremely tired after filming this. I had to take a few days off. It's true, I can't sleep properly due to the heat. I can only image how it is further down in south... Stay strong! :)

[@hawkstrike18]

@@Meisio 🧡 I've went from sleeping too much, when I *really* was 24/7 on your channel, to being slightly energized lately but still exhausted deep inside 🤕 (and this season kills me/my sleep schedule, every time). Not strong at all. It'd be nice to be Superman or something, but even then the true root of most probs (stupidity) would still be there and I would have to worry about it all, draining most of my energy etc. At least I can return online every few months tho, and I've recently had several (mostly normal) conversations on the (2-3) things I keep mentioning. Not everyone responds ofc but I wouldn't be able to handle that anyway, with the amount of replies I've left the last 2 weeks😅 p.s. I guess, deep inside, no one wants to work for more than 10 hours per week, I hope you've found a balance by now and you enjoy it in the end. Imagine having to work way too much till you're ~65 and *then* starting to want to enjoy your life/free time (only to die at 70 or something). Oh wait..... Take your breaks, and even start uploading only casually if it's needed. Everness hadn't uploaded anything for a while, too, from what I saw yesterday. Be like him at least in that way😏 (besides the quality of vids) I keep mentioning how unfair it is for the smaller channels that he's getting almost all the love. Ppl don't share the love, I swear.

[@vad1mTrades]

I truly thank you for your effort. The howling fjord part made me get lost in old memorys.. wrath was such a magical time.

[@alexg.6658]

Yay! Great work! Lovvve!

[@liamturner3453]

It's crazy how this world made me feel more apart of it than our actual world.

[@gubzs]

damn that hit

[@JonaRothDeblon]

I feel the deepest pain when I hear this music. No expansion has immersed me like this one. No other game could give me these emotions. This music for these landscapes and beautiful moments is unique. I miss this world, but I also fondly remember it back with a deep, deep ache in my heart

[@shep9231]

Wrath's music was like nothing else...

[@highhorseo7875]

Same, nothing takes me back like this

[@anwarbojorges]

I had the same feeling but I learn to like the soundtrack of the others... Cataclysm, Pandaria, Legion, BFA and just a few days ago Dragonflight They have moments that makes them just as awesome like before

[@Kryftjor]

Feel ya bro. Big luv, you are not alone.

[@bahrini1000]

the same

[@kapitancurtis]

28:00 was the masterpiece for this expansion. Playing at night when all was quiet, relaxing with a joint and taking it all in. Lost in thought while casually questing. Ahh the memories! Such a pity blizz didn't leave one or two permanent era wrath classic servers up.

[@sylvanas2579]

I was at the WOTLK launch on the 12 of November 2008 in Oxford Street London HMV shop. I will never forget the queue going all the way around the entire building. We came home with our copies of collectors version at around 3.30 am and my husband launched the cd. I remember that day as if it was yesterday. When I woke up it was like Christmas came early. We took days off work to immerse in the game 😂 I would sometimes switch off the heating to feel the atmosphere of cold Northrend… insanity 😂

[@theoalex474]

Awesome! My computer was in the basement at the time when I played WOTLK. It was always cold down there...summer or winter. The coldness always added to the game.

[@nosferhatu]

Storm Peaks , has to be the most nostalgic thing i have ever listened to

[@roomfullofnight]

I really like to imagine one day when i'm on my deathbed, waiting for it. I'll listen to music like this...and it will give me that feeling one more time. A brief flutter of happiness of a time when things were easy and fun. God damn, has it been 12 years since wotlk? What a time

[@PontusOzzyA]

Wow just couldn't get better after this expansion, Northrend is such a masterpiece, got all the different kinds of zoned you could wish for and the music is also the best IMO.

[@The_New_Sin]

Im pretty certain it coule have It just didnt happen

[@elegost2570]

2:33:30 gets me every time, such a nostalgic soundtrack. Another great effort for the books Meisio! Enjoyed it a lot and made my Friday a lot smoother at work. Cheers mate.

[@FPRX]

Immediately reminds me of the raid nights at Ulduar, simpler times !

[@Meisio]

Thank you. I've said it a lot of times now. Too bad I can't find more people like you :)

[@shadewizard]

I agree. Always the first zone music I listen to. Or Netherstorm.

[@seankkg]

Great opening shot. Nothing feels the same as nostalgia. Something you can get lost in.

[@rachyllane]

The Wrath soundtrack has always been my favorite. Thanks for putting it with the scenery and ambience.

[@alexandredumouchel8744]

Thanks man, Grizzly Hills omg play this at my funerals. I am pretty sure Wow and Wow music saved many lives. Hope you all do well into your life, with or without Wow.

[@KaiForce]

Best expansion, best zones, best quests, best music, best raids. What I would give to relive it for the first time...

[@lexprontera8325]

"No Patrick, that's Frostmourne!" Best moment of WotLK

[@darion8476]

I was filled with so much joy when I entered grizzly hills for the first time hearing it's music

[@Grinningfartking6969]

wintergrasp music makes me wanna cry. probably the greatest memories ever made in wow during the prime lich king

[@wfhalsey1]

Don't miss the lag in WG though hahaha

[@TheStofbal]

Hi Meisio! Maybe you remember me, but i am still listening to your music and ASMR Leveling videos every day. It relaxes me so much, and i’m thankful everyday! Thank you so much!

[@Meisio]

Woohaa... I haven't seen you in a long time. Welcome back! :) /love

[@ZakhadWOW]

Dat WIntergrasp music totally slept on.. amazing stuf.. so calming

[@ShamyTV5k]

this was THE leveling experience i enjoyed most, not sure why but the zones were so different and vast. If Blizzard was to put up a survey which is your most favorite continent, 85% would vote for Northrend.

[@L33tSkE3t]

I wish I could go back and relive these moments.

[@HighChurchProtestant]

Currently at a work day at my school while I work on my other jobs for my family. This is the vibe. So many thanks, Meisio.

[@muddyboots7753]

Starting off with Grizzly Hills for the win. I still remember the feeling of hearing the sound of Howling Fjord for the first time as the loading screen is done and the boat approaches the landscape. I could feel the wind and surf just from the music and scenery. Good times.

[@stevelarose1059]

It's my go to music playlist while working! Every week ;)

[@Meisio]

Thank you for supporting the channel Steve ♥️

[@Pshenitcyn]

you are not alone bro!) iam working too with vid and playlist by Meisio.

[@ruanrichter]

Dude - you are the unsung heroes, truly - I listen to this everyday whilst working, maybe not all day... but every.single.day. It's perfect ambience/relaxing musing/nostalgia all mixed in one. Simply good for the soul! And we all really appreciate the cut/edit/scenes etc man! Thanks so much!

[@Luminosity47]

do you still listen daily?

Thanks for these videos! They help me out a lot coping with Rl stress. Got a love hate relationship with my job as sw engineer and listening to your mixes always help me to relax instantly. Keep the good work up man! Cheers

[@nomercyandhope]

No puedo entender como estas melodías me dan la calma que tanto busco, es simplemente hermoso.

[@brunopereira6789]

FUCK Storm Peaks music is good. WotLK as a whole has some of the best music in the game, it's incredible.

[@stephrgmn102]

Great chanel, I'm diggin' it ! Love to listen to WoW soundtrack while working. Vanilla's OST definitely gets the crown, but WOTLK has a special place in my heart and its musics and sound design play a major role in it. Thanks for the hard work !

OMG the ICC finale (the whole part) is damn killer!

Lovely. Many thanks from the Crusade!

[@valit8517]

Lucky you! Wish I could erase the experience and live it again. Enjoy, and take your time!

[@TheLesoro]

Leeeeet's go, to the frozen lands of Northrend! Ancient forests, bone-chilling wastes, colossal titan built structures, domain of 5 blessed dragonflights, ferce Vrykul tribes, fading Drakkari empire, and upon all of them is the Scourge!

[@JSs586]

Ulduar and Storm Peak brought back a lot of memories....Also, is Mirmiron's tune in it? I love the music played in his wing of the map

[@Meisio]

Hi. No, I guess I have to do a separate Ulduar video with Mirmiron's music included. (This is a compilation, and it doesn't include everything). /wave

[@wesleyvl8572]

A other good vidoe dude keep you rock

[@Meisio]

Thank you Wesley :)

[@Sun0B0ru]

relax....

[@semaxwell1]

Awesome video/music compilation! I, too recorded the in-game zone music when this expansion came out (I recorded both day/night music, some zones had different music for it at the time). You don't have it here, but the Ebon Hold and DK starting areas have beautiful music, too. Just curious, was this a dead realm these video clips are from, because I don't see many players in most of them (but then again Northrend is not played much these days on most realms).

[@Meisio]

Thank you. I did include some Ebon Hold tracks, at 03:09:14, but I did not film it since it was in Northrend. But I made a separate video about, right after this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bafcc3dvndSZfJI No. It wasn't a dead realm :) It is filmed on WotLK Classic Beta. You can see the players in Dalaran mostly.

@@Mujii360 I think KZbin had a technical error. Probably the reason the video has fewer views than the average so far. Eh... too bad... I've put a lot of effort in it.

[@Givyj13]

Hi @Meisio, would you consider lowering the question "wait time" for the live stream? Many times questions are asked which people do not know the answer to. It seems like it takes like 10 minutes for the question to "time out" and be auto-answered. I think 2 minutes would be a much more reasonable timer.

[@Meisio]

Hey Garrett! I made some small adjustments to the stream bot. It's not set for 2 minutes though. I used to have it at 5 minutes but people complained that they only saw the bot spamming questions and answers (since no one wanted to play it at some point). I hope you understand and now it's decent. Salutations :)

Citizens of Dalaran! Raise your eyes to the skies and observe! Today our world’s destruction has been averted in defiance of our very makers! Algalon the Observer, herald of the titans, has been defeated by our brave comrades in the depths of the titan city of Ulduar. Algalon was sent here to judge the fate of our world. He found a planet whose races had deviated from the titans’ blueprints. A planet where not everything had gone according to plan. Cold logic deemed our world not worth saving. Cold logic, however, does not account for the power of free will. It’s up to each of us to prove this is a world worth saving. That our lives… our lives are worth living.
