- Located off of the coast of northern Kalimdor, Azuremyst Isle is home to the draenei, refugees who fled Outland aboard the massive dimensional vessel named the Exodar. When the draenei crashed on Azeroth, powerful crystals from their vessel were scattered about Azuremyst Isle, mutating flora and fauna near the debris. Following the ill-fated landing, the draenei worked feverishly to find survivors and mend any damages inflicted on the isle due to their disastrous arrival. The draenei have since taken to the isle and established the remains of the Exodar as their base of power. Having suffered a long and arduous history of exile, the draenei are now resolved to give their lives in defense of Azuremyst Isle.

Exploring these areas for the very first time is simply a feeling that can't be recreated.
why can't new games capture that? is it because the idea of exploration and adventure was so new back then? that we all felt amazing doing it?
@@WowDailyDose
It's hard to capture lightning in a bottle, even if it did get captured again, you've already experienced it once somewhere else so it still won't be as strong a feeling.
A lot of games these days have more focus on bombast and awe though, rather than simple, subdued splendor.
Azuremyst is very somber and calm, a lot of old WoW zones are.
There'll be other games that try to capture that feeling eventually, if people long for it, someone'll make it eventually, it's just the way the wind's blowing for now.
My first ever charachter in WoW was Draenei. And getting to know all about game in this starting area makes it so much more enchanting. Really makes you nostalgic when listening to this
unreal engine would disagree
After first playing WoW; I have searched for this feel whole my life and could not fill the emptiness inside me :(
To anybody reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. may peace and calmness fill your life. ❤
I pray it doesnt. These messages are a dime a dozen. So fucking cringe.
Thanks, you too 👍
Aww that's so sweet ❤ very draenei of you
Stop spreading negativity and visit psychologist for your anger issues. @@iamcalsen
@@iamcalsenits okay
When I was a teen, I met a guy in a dungeon we ran together, we were talking on vent and we were hanging out in stormwind when he randomly decided he wanted to go somewhere peaceful with no one around. Next thing you know, he took me to the spot exactly at 27:00-30:00 and picture this, I will never forget just sitting there at max level for hours on top of those structures enjoying the ambiance and talking about life. I never connected with a stranger over the internet as well as I did with that fella.
Update: This happened when I was a teen, maybe during Catacylsm expansion. I am 29 now and I no longer play WoW. I quit about three years ago. I don't know what became of the guy I met nor do I remember his name as it was about 15 years ago but I wish him well. I just wanted to share on of the MANY memories I created when I played wow. (and yes, I have made more meaningful connections in real life now LOL) Thank you all for sharing your experience and I'm glad a lot of you can share my nostalgia.
Sithqueen XO 😁
Shellzss no homo
Whatever happened to him, if I may ask?
Maybe you should have married him.
Damn, this is sad. You’ve never connected with someone in real life more than you did in WoW??? 😝
No matter what anyone says about Draenei, their starting music will always be the best. It is so spiritual and beautiful I sit there for hours and just listen.
Starkonium PERIOD
Such great music but i like tauren music also
What people says about Draenei? They are my favorite race
It really is an extraordinarily magical piece of music.
When I first started playing wow it was bc and choosing a Draenei as my first character was the best decision ever, their starting zone was enchanting and the atmosphere was so engaging
Good health, long life!
Follow the road travelled by few.
@@Occidentally Favor the road the travelled by few is what I always heard
Not all who wander, are lost.
Strictly speaking. If someone was in good health, then they would never die.
The legions' end draws near...
Azuremyst Isle represents the best ambience WoW has to offer. Enough of a rhythm to lend it some momentum and make it unique, with a feeling that captures the beauty of Azuremyst and the melancholy of the Draenei's diaspora, but portrayed diffusely enough so that it doesn't constantly seize your attention, simply lending context and tonality to the environment.
Despite the amazing thematic and orchestral music that defines modern WoW, I do miss the more passive and atmospheric ambience that defined Vanilla, BC, and (to an extent) WotLK.
Thanks for putting this together; it's exceptionally well done.
can't agree more
Thank god there are people like you, who are capable of describing what I feel but can't put into words myself.
This might be the most perfectly phrased description of older WoW music vs. new I've ever read, and like Daniel said, it's exactly how I feel but I'm not sophisticated enough with my words to have said it any better. Its the reason I can play the older soundtracks in my car, or while I work. It doesn't constantly grab my attention. I haven't been able to do that with anything post WotLK.
Thank you for that perfect description ! If I have to describe the world of Warcraft music from vanilla to Wotlk (and even a little on cataclysm for some zone) to someone, I'll use your words !
that description made my jaw drop lol, beautiful
The creators of this track have absolutely outdone themselves. I have never in my life heard another game ambient music that expresses the lore of the zone so much as this one. The sounds are out of this world - the perfect blend between spiritual and mystic, exactly as the Draenei.
Check out sidnris house ost from now ragnarok☺️
This made me cry. My teen years nostalgia, after all the shit in school and on the streets I come home to my Azaroth to have fun with my friends and live another life. Many guild dramas , many friendships, there was even one of the first loves that I had, with a girl that I meet in WoW I still remember the spot on Azuremyst when we went to chill :) TBC is when I started.
I have a horde insignia tattoo on my arm to forever remember those days.
Sorry for this little emotional rant comment, I had to write...
I had the same feeling couple of years ago. Listening to this music made me want to go back to WoW immidiatelly, like it was possible to go back in time. But unfortunately not. Never forget, though:)
Nikola Zivkovic so beautiful
Amen
dude, there is a girl in this same comment section talking about how she went to chill with a dude on this isalnd and they talked for hours, ITS HER, GO GET IT BRO :D
My youth was great... One day I will tell my children of the World of Warcraft.
How it expanded my mind.
I played Blizzard games since the 90's. Starting with the Warcraft, Starcraft and Diablo franchises.
When WoW came out... lets just say: those were the pinnacle times of MMORPG as a genre. Wow reigned supreme during the period 2005-2010.
We had a great run back then, revisiting the worlds that we left back in Warcraft 3 and stomping Arthas and Illidan.
But nothing in any of those experiences stuck more with me than a tiny isle, a serene place of mystique and wonder. A tranquil, peaceful starting zone where I first picked up my love for Azuraya, My Draenei Shaman.
Those memories are stuck in the 2007 paradigm...
I want to go back to 2007 lol 😢
I’ll never forget being 12 and leveling a Draenei hunter through here after school. The smell of pizza bites I burned in the microwave because the outside was staying frozen but the inside wasn’t. I remember the weird ravagers, the blood elf bandits.
Every time I go to Azuremyst, I always wonder, what it would be like if we could step out our own door and live in a world surrounded by such peaceful music in the air.
@Darkstar You forgot the blood elv assassin thats waiting to stab you
@@Anudorini-Talah But he sometimes gives you a mask selling for 50k, which is very kind of him. What a nice person
The richest guilds in Stormwind would buy all the beachfront property up and lease it out at exorbitant rates.
World of Warcraft will be known as a historical artifact 150 years from now as just quite simply a beautiful moment in time. I'm lucky to have lived when this game was in it's prime. I love this piece of music.
All this game ever did was bring people together. Enemies, friends, trolls, even sometimes lovers... in a way that it’s so hard to do in real life anymore. This game shows a different side of our humanity that we otherwise seem to have lost touch with. That reality, like this music, is so sad yet so beautiful... like daydreaming up into the night sky, into endless possibilities. To all reading this, I wish you well on your journey. :)
I'm afraid that you are right. Much seems to have been lost in previous years and for the sake of mankind, I wish that we'll recover it one day, somehow. WoW also needs to go back to those wonderful days that brought everyone together, just as you said. I thank you for taking your time to write such a wonderful comment. May your journey be full of fortune, kind traveler.
@@Zukoiu WoW is Dead. Blizzard is long gone..... Remember the good times
LFG truly killed the community. I realize how much of a pain in the ass it was to group up for an instance, but there had to have been a better way to implement it without completely destroying the incentive for community and communication.
I really miss this game. Not the game that it has become, but the game that it once was.
There is always WoW Classic
they need a gamer version to play for every expansion watch panda land will be the least populated.
@DJ_Trolly It's not just the game thought... The entire internet culture was different. People interact in a different way now than we did back then, at least that's how I feel. Back then meta wasn't a big deal for most people either, making it less important to rush towards the end goal and more about exploring the world with others. Just look at wow classic, almost everyone hanging about in the capital cities all have the best gear and the bst mounts in the game cause the mentality and knowledge is so much more geared towards effectiveness now than back then. Thats how I perceive it anyways... the old times will never come back, Im just so glad to have experienced a very very special time in gaming
@DJ_Trolly Is that announced, would be amazing..
I don’t know if this is normal but the level of nostalgia i get from this place is almost unbearable lol miss those days alot...
Man, this brings back so many memories. I remember being ten years old. I would get get home from school everyday waiting to play W.O.W. one of my first characters was a draenei. I remember not even caring for the quests. I would go swimming next to the waterfall for hours. Taking in the scenery then exploring. The music made me so calm and helped my anxiety and ADHD so much. I will cherish those memories forever.
❤️❤️❤️
When I was a kid I remember making my first draenei and not really thinking much of Azuremyst, it was simply the starting area that I needed to get through (I didn't even play with the sound on), but a few years later I went back to it and realised that it's essentially my idea of heaven.
Animals slowly roaming around a quiet, secluded forest island, with lilac low light and a peaceful ambience track that makes you feel slightly drowsy, ancient elven ruins scattered around, bushes and beds of flowers everywhere, with tall dark pines that give you shelter, surrounded by silt shores stroked by gentle ripples, all far removed from the wars going on across the sea.
In my mind it's the ultimate sanctuary, so now I go there if I have a bad day at work or if I'm really tired, or really whenever I can hehe
that was epicly described lol even years later
@@AstroDynamics1 thanks bro
This is word for word how I feel about it! I’m glad you have this place too
I am at work reading this and I had to pause, I started crying..... Your explanation is too beautiful.......
@@CH1EFBL1TZ there is this artistry in games these days which I think we can all benefit from exploring, azuremyst is one of those places imo, and thanks also
poor dreanei. they have gone through so much its horrible...
No, just no.
No.
I can only imagine the look on good old Velen's face when he returned to Argus... This time, at the head of an army, knocking at Kil'jaeden's own gates.
@GamingTV yea and now we have this bullshit with sylvanas ...
They have and yet remain...still keeping to themselves as best they can
GamingTV if the draenei were to return to the strenght that they used to have and regain their population, then I could definitely see them being their own faction. But since they crash landed azeroth while weakened and with a very small population, they desperately needed the alliance’s help to protect them.
I hope the draenei have their own expansion one day, Wod did not do them justice at all.
About 12 years ago or so, back when I was in elementary school, my brother introduced me to this game after playing Guild Wars Factions. He'd let me make a Drenaei and I remember literally every single thing I did that day with my new character. For example meeting that NPC Fisherman at the beach. traveling to Exodar just because I could see that giant crystal somewhere on the horizon. My god the years of playing this game were so worh it. No regrets at all!
As a child, I saw this things with absolutely different eyes, everything it was so fascinating. I was so excited for a grey Axe as Warrior.
I remember thinking the armour durability visual meant something positive was happening to me. lol that was 2007
@@the_godlikeee5522 That's true, somehow we perceive things in fascinating way, full of mystic or wonder, everything seems so great... with "Wow effect" )
@@the_godlikeee5522Just found this comment again. Glad to be back, still remember the good ole days (:
Most underrated zone and zone music
To be honest, I don't know why but TBC soundtracks - all of them - just seem to be on some other level than anything else, at least for me
I came to meet my boyfriend through WoW, on an rp server - I finally came to the US, to visit and hopefully stay because of our blossoming relationship - he is Draenei and I'm a Kal'dorei - so we rped on the Isles once or twice .. and I always ended up leaving open the music every time because of how peaceful it is.. even now, that we're together irl, I always like to find this track and just listen to it with my headphones on, as a great memory.. thank you for putting his out here for all of us to enjoy!
You traveled to another country to find your WoW lover?? And now you're together in real life? I have hope for love again
Davidisawesome15 Probably two dudes
92JoseR 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
92JoseR is that such a bad thing?
Somebody sounds jealous lol
I'm drunk and at the verge of tears bumping this music. Thank you Blizzard for over 10 years of amazement and outright inspiration. I promise that my music is directly inspired from the brilliance of Azeroth Music's composers. Thank you forever
same
That's so lovely.
That’s what liquor does to some extend, try mdma while listening to this, 1000 fold the feels!
I am basically 10 years late on this game ( TBC + WotLK on private server ), but nevertheless, after almost 2 years, I really have to say, I am feeling nostalgia. This was once again another game, I was playing alone like almost every game Ive played, even tho at the beginning it looked like I had someone to play with, cuz my my friend invited to play this game ( FOR FREE ). But after a while, he stopped playing. So it was just me. But the first experiences, either with my first undead Rogue roaming through Tirisfal Glades, or any other, it was something special. I remember first playing Draenei, having few beers in me, and just enjoying whole atmosphere of the starting zone on night. I dont think there is a game that made me feel so much as this game.... and you Everness enabling people to feel this whenever they want, especially when trying to sleep... thank you.
I began to play at WoW:BC times back in 2007. My first and the only main character male draenei shaman guide me through these wonderful years. I love you
My was Bloodelf Paladin :D
Now i will play a Draenei Shaman as well maybe. Or a Paladin
I think the greatest element of the Azuremyst Isle was how believable it was. The only fanciful elements of the island were the people on the islands and the crashed spaceship of the Draenei. I really felt that I could wash ashore an island like Azuremyst, and not be shocked but the local plant life and geography.
Also I loved the color scheme of the island: cool colors punctuated by soft lavender tones.
But I think what stood out the most was the ambient music of the environment. It didn't feel as bombastic or as intense as the rest of the World of Warcraft soundtrack sounded, and had an air of mystery to it. It really fit the spiritual nature of the Draenei.
I hope they re-release BC as they have done with classic so I can play a Draenei Shaman. To explore Outland again as one of my favorite races, and to finish all those instances/raids I didn't complete with my first playthrough, would be a joy for sure.
Beautiful comment, well written
They are re-releasing BC 🙌🏻
@@kenziechapple I'm glad I'm not the only one to be going back and looking at this comment after it was announced.

Always brings a tear to my eye. A Draenei pally was the first toon I ever rolled in WoW 16 years ago.
Amazing zone. Still one of my favorites to this day and the music really makes it. It's somber and a hint of desperation. It's especially emotional when you find the Night Elf who lost his family in the nearby home that's destroyed and overrun. He is just sitting on the edge of the dock contemplating the point of life after losing his family. I listen to this to fall asleep sometimes.
So many memories.
Tirisfal Glades
The Lost Isles
And Azuremyst Isle will always be my 3 favourite start zones
This was my first ever experience playing WoW, it was during cata so I was late to the party but the sheer serenity and calm that permeates Azuremyst Isle still fills me with a feeling of comfort. I'll always cherish the good times this game gave me, even as it was wavering in it's vision and even if I'm entirely disillusioned with the current state of the game.
Had so much fun leveling my Draenei shaman in this zone. The quests were amazing.
I want to go back and do it all over again
(‘’’’:
Me too!!! I can't even count how many draenei's alts I started lol
It's pretty much inevitable at this point that blizz will release TBC classic servers, classic wow was way too successful for them to not expand to at least wrath.
@@xXFluffers true
4 days
Draenei are just in a class for themselves. The race and concept is so creative. Imo it is the best thing blizzard has ever done. The feeling of the world of warcraft completly shifted, but in a good way. They definetly peaked 2007.
Dioniss aca.
I listen to this while driving, at work, while eating, reading, watching starcraft 2 videos on and while trying to cope with an imminent panic attack on a plane. This is the ultimate relaxing music. Thanks for uploading it!
i like most that there is a virtual world behind this music
I hate flying as well
Lost count of all the dozens of hours I spent in the bridge that connects this isle with the blood one looking at the sea "afk" studying for exams
so good
So true it’s so amazing to study to it
dude that's awesome
And interrupt studying to hit tab every 15 minutes not to get disconnected lol
Something about this soundtrack just calms me to my very core
I remember coming back from a rave after non stop dancing all night 10+ years ago but couldn't sleep despite the exhaustion. Must have been around 4am and I decided to fire up WOW and after wandering around found myself in the area shown on 11:02. The exact music played (I'm getting the shivers listening to this.) I was home alone, with an amazing surround system, a large screen, in my dark room. I stared at this river for what seemed an eternity... and started crying. The music /scenery took hold of me and I couldn't control myself. For the first time in my life I felt like I had found something inside of me that I had been missing... missing for as long as I can remember. I cried for what seemed like hours. Out of nowhere an elf came up to me, she danced, showed me a flower, turned around and left. I cannot describe the exhilaration of happiness I felt at that moment, as if the weight of the world was lifted off my shoulders. I knew then that everything would be OK. That was the day everything changed. 10+ years later I still dream of that elf. She is burned in my memory as the angel that saved me. I look back and can only help but wonder "What if she didn't arrive that night? Would I be the person I am today?"
What you felt was the "glory" of God
Many never experience, and some that do don't realize why. The reason you cried was because you were totally captured by the moment of existence that was presented to you that could only exist because of God and he gave you that moment for that exact reason.
@@CH1EFBL1TZ As an ashiest I can't say I agree, but respect your opinion (and of course your beliefs on religion.) If God has made you find happiness, I encourage you continue that path.
It was a capitulation of everything that was going on in my life at that moment; a perfect breaking point. I was bordering a precipice I couldn't even see at the time. When I look back I realize how lucky I was. Studying, reading, learning, lots of playing sports, hard work, focus and goals got me ahead in life.
This soundtrack is a spiritual experience for me, it's so calming! I love it! Thank you!
One of the many reasons I've been playing a draenei for as long as I can remember.
A lot of the WoW music is!
one of the many many reasons WoW is so epic..... the music is something that lives.
Same, Ninu.
Absolutely, Ninu
What makes World of Warcraft such a great game for me to have played it religiously for years... They capture the lifestyle and culture of many different races and customs. The soundtracks and ambience are so unique. It's a huge world... Wonderfully done. I haven't subbed actively for a few years now, but I have hope in their vanilla servers this summer. :)
we can all hope buddy, but I honestly dont think any of us are going back to those times... WHY DOES THIS MAKE ME CRY! :(
how can this be SO good, that even after all those years it is still as powerful
This is my go-to relaxation music! On days I just can't relax because of pain or whatnot, I put this on and it works like a charm. Thank you very much for sharing! ♥
Azremyst Isle has a kind of cozy early morning feeling! I remember as a teen i would login early in the morning before school just to feel the ambience of this place..
I used to main a draenei elemental shaman. I was arguably one the be best elemental shamans on my server. That wasn't saying much because 90% of the shamans were resto or enhancement spec, but it was so much fun playing off-meta.
Man, good times... I miss it.
Reading through these comments gives me the same feeling as I did meeting new people back in the day in this beautiful game that once was
I will renew my subscription just to go to these places, walk around and remember the good old times. ❤❤❤
i fucking love this zone, this is where i made my first character and to this day i still love it, the music, the atmosphere, really gave you the feels that you where in a giant world full of mistery
Such a wonderful soundtrack. World of Warcraft wouldn't be the same without their top talent musical composers
Утро доброе всем.... Красивая локация, чувствуется дух Калимдора в каждом уголке и каждый Дреней который проходил через неё... Сквозь тишину и природу видится мощь Экзодара и как Запределье вплетается в Классику.. Чувство нового Дома для уставшего путника.... Отличное место отличное время игры где каждый найдёт что то своё... Своё место и пространство вне времён... Спасибо Автор за ролик и Спасибо Близзард за отличную игру на долгие времена...
Azuremyst and Exodar music is some of the best music to come from video games
The Horde was my home for years, but this place and the draenei, brought me to the long hated alliance. ...
My very first character was a Draenei, a mage on a pirate server where I spent years. Time later, I moved to the original with my back then wife. We played together for days and entire months in the WoD era. We started our own Draeneis, she chose a shaman and I tried my pally and a monk elf to use the boost and the double mount. Time before, we broke up and now and since 2016 I'm unable to play again WoW, too many memories come back to my mind from an age of tears, happiness and a total rollecoaster of emotions. Now, I have the money to keep paying the original but not the time nor the energy. Hearing this poured some tears from inside of my soul. Thanks for uploading this. For the alliance, forever in my mind and memories.
gosh i remember playing my shaman, my first draenei character back in bc.
people were swarming this place, you had to wait for questmobs to spawn!
the music, the ambience, the whole feel was so cool....
thx for this, again, AMAZING vid!! :-)
I've replied to your comments before but I don't remember whether or not you're still playing, so I don't know if you're aware of a zone from Warlords of Draenor expansion called "Shadowmoon Valley." It's practically Azuremyst Isle 3.0. I should make a video soon enough. Although making music tracks for WoD zones is a huge pain in the butt...
+Everness i m still playing, and will do so till the servers shut down for good ;-) i know shadow moon valley, so much fun to level and explore :-)
a vid would be amazing, and i know that your vids are always awesome, so i ll wait patiently :-) and listen to this while doing so ;-)
I think we all had those spots in the amazing and enchanting WoW zones my friend :-) My warrior had a similar spot in Nagrand on the "guru tree" floating stones, as well as Zangarmarsh on the mushroom caps, and in the mountains by Skettis in Terokkar Forest. TBC was great fun flying around the skies
It..... its happening again!
A dimensional portal has opened! We are yet again able to expirience all the memorys again!
I hope we can expirience this again with tbc classic
Definitely one of my favourite WoW places and music. Hauntingly beautiful.
Its funny that sometimes we play for hours and hours and walk pass through these ambiences but never stops to notice its beauty.
Now look at me, every time im looking to distress i go for a shower with wc3 nelf theme or this one, or go for a run with these songs too
It just feels relaxing and soothing, it gets me closer to myself without worrying or thinking about anything besides the water flowing down my skin in the dark; or, while running, the heart rate and the air that strucks me constantly. Its just amazing, and probably gonna carry it for the rest of my life.
I do this too. Whenever I go for a walk or need to relax,I play this. Its a cure for anxiety or stress.
I Remember being 8 years old, back in 2009, and me and my dad were planning on going to see 'Avatar' (The one with the blue aliens) and I was so excited that before the movie, I made a draenai and pretended I was one of them from the trailer. I LOVED the movie and when I came home I spent the entire day and night just playing as a Draenei. Great times.
As some have stated, some of you keep characters in this zone just for the ambient music and what not and I can't say I don't blame any of you. I go through my WoW periods of taking a break from the game which is so easy to do now days simply because WoW just isn't the game that it was as is evidence by this amazing soundtrack here. When I do go back to the game, I always start with new characters for this zone and Ghostlands simply because of the lore and most definitely the music. It's always such a happy/sad mix of emotions and I'll never forget this part of the game.
I come back to this music every time I need to re-center myself and release all the noise that’s attached itself to me
Currently at work doing the same thing
The Duduk ( or Ney, i'm not too sure) was an excellent choice of instrument to represent the Draenei. The perfect combination of mysticism and sorrow!
Yep
WoW really knows how to set the ambience for a place. This is beautiful.
Thanks a lot! Really peaceful and nostalgic place/music. One of the best zone in entire game.

This is perfect for when you’re sick and feverish and you’re just laying on your soft couch in dim light...just warm and sleepy. I feel like my sickness is almost gone when I’m this relaxed and peaceful. Thank you for this ambience! 😌🌲☕️ 🎶
I meditate on this and it's amazing. Thank you Everness for your wonderful compositions.
I feel like there are people like you out there I would really connect with. Bunch of beautiful, emotional, lovable human beings.... do I pass you everyday but just don’t know it? I hope we can meet and be friends one day, share our longing and dreams for the great mystery of life.
It's always been on my mind, how we people carry around whole vast worlds inside, full of wonderful interests, information and memories. But we all kind of avoid dipping too much into it, well, because it's everyday life. And if you speak out in the wrong environment, you'll be regarded as boring, nerdy, or straight up crazy. Doesn't bother me much, but it's good to reflect on. And from time to time, you do find some rare people that speak the same mind and they become your friends.
Perhaps the best ambience in the game, love it
yes damn it yes. duduk for life
What the draenei had to endure is heart-breaking. I think the music captures that well.
what did they have to endure?
@@AlastairGames rape and genocide
I love to listen to this while I read The Wheel of Time
I started college in 2016, I was so young xD I used to listen to this track again and again, wow's music always help me a lot to study but this song specifically envolve my head in a way I can't explain. Today I'm in another college and start studying again with this song bring me back a lot of memories
Wow I just found your channel... the Draenei area was the first area I ever played through back in tbc, I will never ever tire of leveling a toon through here and the Draenei and their people/lore will always hold a special place for me. I recently found out about private servers and have been playing tbc again, ran Kara and heroics tbc dungeons again... what a trip down memory land that's been! LOL sorry for going off on a tangent but this music sends me straight back 10 years, I really love your content!
You might consider using a private server to showcase some of the zones before Cata, like Auberdine whole and the old darkshore... some people might enjoy that for the nostalgia feels! Just a thought. :)
One of the most calming zones, the feeling that you will never express, when you first log on. You feel like you are ingame by yourself, not just the character.
World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade one of the best expansion, wish i could play TBC again for the 1st time. Thank you for sharing this epic gem.
Hackett out.
Nope, Wrath of the Lich King is the best expansion.
But pre-Cata WoW (with the exception of MoP and Legion) was the golden age.
When I was young my gf at the time loved azuremyst, she would “waste” (as I thought of it being a nerd who wanted to farm) so much time there, I never understood why because I never played with music on, but I get it now
Interesting thing. From the moment i stepped in the game, music got me. Lot of ppl play with music turned off.
This is good to listen to on a cool spring twilight evening with a light breeze.
Yes! This is very spring music for me as well.
Spring 2020.. April 13.. the sun is on the break of setting n giving a show over the horizon of twilight n mist.. it begins to rain..
Plays this soundtrack:
Me: so, this is heaven on earth
@@Denjin384 Nice! I'm about to get hammered with hail in about 8 hours. Screw it! I'll still listen to this!
Thank you Everness for all those videos - that is what tormented souls like us need :-)
I remember, when TBC came out, my first Character was a Draenei shaman called Donkorleone on EU-Ambossar which was a german server. I met a Draenei Hunter and we became friends. His name was Chemalarn. Also there was a Draenei-Shaman-Girl but I dont remember her name. We were enjoying leveling and killing the Blood-Elfs on this Island in order to get these awesome elven-masks. Exploring the Draenei stating zone was fun with our group.I loved it on this Island. Everything seemed perfect on it, the landscape, the long beach, the woods the music, it was a pleasure to spend time there. Im quite sad that this lies in the past. We 3 talked about everything, school, home, our origins, and what we are going to do one day. I became a Maths and Physics-Teacher. Im wondering what these 2 people are doing today and if they remember at least my character. I wish them and all people well ;)
The nostalgia is unparalleled.
First day of TBC release, whole map of new characters speedrunning to max level, and I was just sitting there and listening to this masterpiece.
My wife (then girlfriend) used to make fun of me playing wow, but then I created an account for her and she slowly started playing and loving it. I played as a draenei warrior and she played a hunter. This was almost 10 years ago. it was so much fun. We would be talking over our phones since discord wasnt a thing. She would run over to every flower and pick it, feed her pet, and got so excited when she found a cheese shop in stormwind lol
I love reading all these comments that eclipsed my own experiences stepping into TBC for the first time. The masterfully crafted sound design added a degree of serene seriousness to this zone (and Bloodmyst).
This is hauntingly Amazing. I have always loved this music
There will never be a game like WoW..... The first time you logged on.....explored the starting area and finding your first weapon upgrade....the first time completing a dungeon with a fun group....entering the main capitol cities the first time!!! omg I could go on and on and on about how many moments this game delivered to me in my childhood. There will never, ever be a game like WoW.
First time playing WoW was in Azuremyst... Sometimes I'll create a free-to-play character just to hang about the island and the Exodar.
I use this on the background when I do yoga and meditation. I was so zen that it freaked me out and tensed me up right away again.
The fact that this was released in 2007 is mindblowing. Some of the current players were not even born back then I believe. This game never gets old.
I'm always coming back to this one. It has all the moods :)
Wenn ich zurück blicke auf meinen Start in diesem Spiel überhaupt, der hier begann...einfach schön :)Jetzt weiß ich, dass ich es damals instinktiv richtig gemacht habe. Ich habe mich komplett durch dieses Gebiet gelevelt und somit einen wunderbar atmosphärisch fesselnden Anfang in dieses Game gehabt. So einen Einstieg empfehle und wünsche ich jedem.
Bless you, Everness. Your video are making me want to re-sub, simply to explore the lands once again....
My personal favorite...Azuremyst Isle for vacation!!
You did it great ! Well I know I'm late when I was asking and longing for it but I could not watch it ^^ So much chlidhood memories... Xaina, Draeneï, proud and with me since I'm 7
If time travel or brain memory tapes ever get invented, were all coming back to these times we melted our faces and time in this game.
I really love this zone and its music. It is the thing that made me really happy when I was 16, rolling a Draenei paladin in the February of 2012.
13:57 one of my favorite tracks for Azuremyst.
Best race ever, with huge lore behind them. I stopped playing my dwarf hunter as soon as TBC released and I made a Draenei Paladin inspired from Maraad in the cinematic. Hammer of the Naaru is my favourite weapon.
Hey, I'd like to thank you. It's a pleasure studying with your channel playing through my headphones.

My first time leveling a Draenei, I sat at the campfire at the little village once you leave the area with the first quests for hours. And I was not alone, many people sat with me over the course of the evening just listening to this music.
Lovely work on the video some of the shots like 9:00 and 19:00 almost look painted. Brilliant music to hobby code to!
azuremyst isle had this beautiful mix between suffering and relaxation. most things there are strange but fascinating, the draenei included. they have this alien technology, but go through great pain and loss in the starting zone. you hear this aetherical music and play a survivor of a fatal crash landing, equipped with nothing but flimsy leather trousers and a thin wooden bow, but at the same time the draenei around you speak with dignified, calm voices-even their movements and skillset were elegant
these contrasts always stuck with me
