Blade's Edge Mountains - Music & Ambience - World of Warcraft

[@sammiller8091]

To me, BC was the expansion with the best atmosphere and feeling to it. I just love outland.

[@sumerian88]

Same. Hellfire Peninsula and Terokkar Forest music leave me awed.

[@CharlesStanleyArt]

Sam Miller 100% Agree!

[@Roshea]

Mop came close

[@jtrjkgfjrdtje]

same, best wow expansion

[@kiffy00]

oh man if only there was no flying

[@GhostOfTazio]

most underrated zone in wow. I loved it.

[@druid1302]

was such a vast place I always felt a little lost.

[@hahanicebroskie]

Honestly, you're right.

[@music4meh]

underrated comment Nobody liked this zone, but it is amazing Conceptually, Outland is incredible, Nethstorm and Blade's Edge are peak, it's crazy inventive and you get a sense of the developers' genius joy of creating - how the fk do you come up with this shit If you read some of the quest texts accompanied with the music across Outland, the entire setting is bleak. You're on a dying world. There's nothing you can do to change its fate. Thousands of lives trapped on a doomed planet. Blade's Edge feels sort of free from that sense, and what do you get? A zone almost entirely devoid of water and peaceful wildlife, even the jagged landscape is inimical, if not adorned with the corpses of a nigh extinct dragonkind. A region beyond savagery or any of the opposite that defines it as such. Nothing is safe and welcome here.

[@adriandotg]

Matt Uelmen... badass soundtrack by a badass composer, this right here and the auchindoun themes are fantastic

[@hichtwo]

The amount of content this zone brought is so much underrated ... the Ogr’ila reputation grind and the thing with apexis shards and the mini boss’s.. damn I have fond memories of this zone. Pain in the ass without a flying mount tbh

[@heathertoribio5824]

BC music is absolutely timeless and ethereal. I love all WoW music, but this is so special.

[@laguaridadelgremlin]

I put your videos in the background at the bookstore I work at. They're actually pretty fitting!

[@BeMerylle]

Otro Canal de Rol Some parts of the music gets so dramatic, with an undertone of foreboding doom. But what a treat for the customers lol.

[@BeMerylle]

Imagine 5:50 starts playing in the background of a bookstore 😸

[@Adastia]

11:45 Always felt fascinated by these tunes, especially the parts with the guitars at 12:06, reminds me of Diablo 2 somehow.

[@Cristian-ql4dv]

One of the creators of TBC's music worked for the whole D2 soundtrack. So that's why it sounds similar. Love the style anyway it's really unique

[@Everness1]

You might be interested in this interview Matt Uelmen gave to a fairly large Diablo fan site: www.diabloii.net/blog/comments/matt-uelmen-interview-from-condor-to-torchlight-2 Quote on the subject: "95% of my work on D3 was cannibalized into Burning Crusade music. Which was a very, very rational decision on my part."

[@wodzimierzabramow1544]

[@grahf6807]

The first zone in Diablo 2 yeah

[@tonysbakery7870]

Inception

[@Mikeztarp]

You can really hear Matt Uelmen in this one. Love that composer.

[@vefanturmandos9022]

Oh you did it, thanks so much for this one! Underrated area, underrated themes, amazing memories from the glorious days of early TBC and Gruul farm.

[@DomSchu]

This zone was confusing af even with a flying mount.

[@Adastia]

Yes, it was the most avoided zone in TBC, always empty :D

[@2damaxmr2]

60% flying mount? XD

[@Jimmykreedz]

@@Adastia Certainly not. There were a ton of dailies up there, from Skyguards and Ogrila, to Shattered Sun dailies gotten in Shattrath. Never had trouble finding world pvp up there. Fuck I miss this zone.

[@Davesothoth]

One of my favourite zones, amazing design and atmosphere

[@ImApromox]

Even tho i never really liked levling through this zone, i did love to stay at the edge and look at the skybox and listen to the music. Good memories :)

[@nikobyrd6201]

Beautiful opener. Love Blades Edge

[@richardszalai5230]

9:35 - 9:55 Alexander Scriabin's prometheus :poem of fire

[@Chrysaetos11]

Another Outland zone with great music and amazing scenery and skies.

[@InfernalPasquale]

A brilliant and unique composer

[@JelloPuddingFood]

I love these. Thanks for all the work you put into them. You do a great job.

[@ltg8382]

current and future wow will never give us these same goosebumps sadly

[@the_furry_inside_your_walls639]

I don't know about you, but Spires of Arak gave me quite some chills that I only ever got in BC and Wrath.

[@MrAntAve]

it did actually

[@TheGamerDad82]

Oh the memories :'(

[@nikobyrd6201]

Don't remember BEM music sounding this good. Thanks! Easily on of my favs now.

[@wfhalsey1]

Such good Diablo II vibes!

[@nekochan7191]

i just meet some days ago, i just wanna say thank you a lot, for all the videos, i mean you are doing this since 2 years ago such a time working on this videos :v u got a place in my heart

[@thehardcorecasual9444]

Always avoided this zone, but loved the music.

[@EdMcStinko]

Most memorable zone in the game, had a tough time figuring out where to go.

[@Solarnova]

More atmosphere and immersion in this single TBC zone, than all of BfA and Legion combined.

[@sonia417]

Legion did have amazing music I must say,but BFA absolute trash. TBC is the most glorious expansion when it comes to music and atmosphere. Nothing comes close. I have 1 hr long versions of every zone on my phone, and Ive been listening to them for years.

[@Judge_RR]

@@sonia417 You need to clean your ears and get your eyes checked if you think, in your opinion only, of course, that BFA was trash. BFA had better music than Legion and better progression than Legion. It has more pleasing / appealing artwork and there was just much more to do across the board. What is it with you peasants always going back to the stone age where there was hardly anything? Your logic is flawed and it is always encumbered by a false sense of reality.

[@sonia417]

@@Judge_RR did I talk to you? Be gone.

[@leaucard5613]

@@Judge_RR Imagine having such bad tastes that you would praise BFA, one of the top 3 worst expansions with Wod and shadowland. You talk about peasants yet your taste in expansions show your utter lack of culture when it comes to aesthethic, game content and story (which you did not mention, but at this point might as well assume that you're foolish enough to think it is a good product). Please never speak about tastes again so that the world may be free of yet another idiot's ramblings.

[@Sara-jh8jj]

I love this zone so much. Easily my favorite place in Outland

[@sse8273]

Listening to this again, and I'm like "Sounds like Torchlight 2 soundtrack..." Checked online, T2 soundtrack by (guess who) Matt Uelmen. Well that explains that! As always amazing job please don't ever stop!

[@maddoxrallo4910]

I used to adore this type of atmospheric music in this game. I was so disappointed later with how all the tracks started to sound like some Loney Tunes orchestra, like when Tom and Jerry are chasing each other. I feel it mainly started with the Panda Bear expansion.

[@avatar19822]

I've been playing Elder Scrolls Online for a couple years now, but I kinda want to try World of Warcraft just from listening to all this music. There must be hundreds of different soundtracks!

[@V1CT1MIZED]

Blades Edge dry forest 2 is the best part for me and brings it all back.

[@markosskace514]

Thanks. Both videos, this and the ambience one are great. I really like all BC zones, and events and ethereal chains in Blade's Edge. Except that "press the color buttons" game, that was horrible.

[@Amaguq12]

40:12 is quite nostalgic! I remember going there all the time, either to get my nether-drake reputation or the nether-manta mount reputation

[@Konk89]

I have been waiting for this one! Thank you!

[@tesla3695]

Shout out Matt Uelmen. Genius.

[@samtama5914]

The place where deathwing's PTSD would triggered

[@waynee5603]

I play wow classic with the in game music off. Then play BC music and Ambience by Everness in the background. ....Totally changes the mood of the zone your in. Blasted lands with Hellfire Peninsula, Felwood - Terrokar Forrest, Silithus or Tanaris - Blades Edge Mountains. Swamp of Sorrows / Duskwood - Zangarmarsh. Works wonders. Try it out! :)

[@Asurion777]

Everness - what you have done to the soundtrack fans community - I love you!

[@philipquaglino]

TBC was great! WotLK was awesome, then it all started to drop IMO

[@peter486]

this was the best music or ambiance music of the intire game even better than the epic vanilla in my book :)

[@capn_howdy]

Blade's Edge Dry Forest 1 is my jam.

[@RealmsofPixelation]

2:37 holy shit

[@fredericratelle4414]

Oh yeah! Sweet BC time

[@tadmax]

Starting around 9:10 the composer seems to take inspiration from the Shining--horns that crescendo and decrescendo.

[@MarketCipher1]

We may be getting Mok'Nathals very soon as an allied race, with the alliance getting half giant Kul Tirans.

[@mihaitaciobanu8145]

Please make a video with Azsuna, Stormheim or Lost Isles

[@scottlee8645]

Thought I would live and die in this game

[@ScootieXP]

I avoided BEM back in the days even tough I finished all quest but I dont remember to having any Matt Uelmen dejavu at all. I did have those in Terrokar Forest and the instances within.

[@NatanaelCastoldi]

Zul'drak, pls!

[@MrEpic-qe2tt]

I didn't think they could turn Ogres into a zone yet they did

[@conquesotador]

So similar to Terokkar.

[@badkarm4]

I so wish I could go back to grinding orge quests...

[@s4nder86]

You can.

[@vraven-tc6cg]

I like this zone without the music, the ambience alone just makes it feel creepy like if you're playing a zombie survival game like DayZ.

[@Bendesho]

Seems like this was not a very well-liked zone during TBC. I wonder why? I liked it fine.

[@Everness1]

Exceedingly hard to traverse without a flying mount and not one of the "cool kids" zones - SMV and Netherstorm. Ogri'la wasn't very hot either.

[@r.pizzamonkey7379]

Wait, was the music/ambience made with actual saw blades? I swear it sounds like it in the first track. If so that's some major dedication.

[@V1CT1MIZED]

Wait till you hear about Mick Gordon and the DOOM OST

[@RAD1111able]

Sometimes I feel like the music for this zone is heavily influenced by Diablo 2

[@Flaeren]

because some of TBC music was originally created for diablo 3 by matt uelmen, then they used it in WoW for various reasons.

[@cavedog937]

Yes

[@loupblanc2890]

Salut et merci pour ses magnifiques musique peut tu mettre du morrowind, oblivion si c'est possible thanks

[@Everness1]

I can't give you any dates, but at some point - yes, for both of those. Just need more time.

[@loupblanc2890]

Everness ok thank you

[@hehe-lp9fz]

Reminds me of Dany's dragon falling

[@VV-nz4dv]

[@BoyKagome]

...don't dragons ever rot?

[@Everness1]

The stench there was horrid! I could barely hold the camera steady.

[@BoyKagome]

... Had a level 80+ guide to show you around?

[@wrappercraft90]

I hate to break 69 comments, but... wow. Just wow.

[@agakath]

these dragons should have rotten by the time the expansion's been set

[@tstochuj]

I miss this ambient, heavy soundtrack in WoW. Nowadays they just shove all this forced epic and orchestral choir bullshit up your arse all the time.

[@FenharelTheDreadWolf]

this is shit without melody fucking ambient
