Np man. But alot of warcraft soundtracks play in multiple area's. The Scarlet Enclave were pretty much similair to the ''Scarlet Crusade'' and ''Argent Dawn''. The Enclave was a Scarlet Crusade chapter send to purge the Eastern Plaguelands of the Scourge, I remember that that music always played in the Scarlet Crusade and the Scarlet Enclave's Chapels.
I read somewhere the original Orcs & Humans soundtracks were heavily inspired by Holst when Blizzard were still trying to get into the Warhammer IP. "Welcome to the World of Warcraft" -- Warcraft 1 intro narrator
Throughout the years i have seen almost every menacing sounding Warcraft ost to be accused of stealing from Holst. This applies to almost any other menacing ost in other games.
+Apolyon, the Soul-Render - that's because a fuck-ton of composers HAVE emulated Holst, including, most famously, John Williams for Star Wars (Because George Lucas originally edited the movie with Holst as the temp soundtrack, and told Williams to make it similar.) ua-cam.com/video/5pM2SozsyPE/v-deo.html
I won’t be surprised if ALOT of Classic music remakes are popped into the main themes of BFA, I mean if Classic is vanilla, BFA is Cookies and cream :P
Picture this as the login screen for battle for azeroth. You enter the screen with a pretty Teldrassil there gleaming in the night, but all of a sudden it instantly bursts aflame and the login music begins.
lol i like how people say "its fake its just pieces together: .....WOOOOW you guys are so smart (description : "A preview of the music in the upcoming expansion, pieced together as a login suite.") .... :P
Imagine the first minute of the theme as you would see in a badass motion picture made by Blizz, how the first moments of the universe are created. An eternal clash of cosmic scope between the grand two forces which is all about in the long game. The Void and the Light. Clashing endlessly destroying eachother on and on, countless of times for the end of times to come.
People saying this is a pieced together music, I know this is a preview created by a fan But wtf, most of login musics are just 30s to 1min of orginal music and then they are musics from the expansion pieced together They're just medley
Actually there is a good reason behind this. If you know anything about opera is that it's about storytelling supported by music. Wow is an opera in its own way. And at the beginning of each opera, plays a special music, that has the role of summary for what is to come. I forgot how it's called, but basically it's the theme of all the major characters and events fit into a single music, not telling much about how things will unfold, but telling you who and what will it be about. Unlike a summary that would just list chapters and names for them, it lists character themes and important event tunes. Like for instance the song for a betrayal. It's not exactly the same, but it uses the same key and main notes. The rythm and arrangement usually differ a bit. WoW's login screen always has done exactly that. Battle for Azeroth's not going to be any different. There will be a few original themes, I expect a Tirasian theme, a troll theme, with a martial intro (perhaps even a new version of call to arms). I think the suite proposed here is good, but i find it unlikely to find all of these in the login theme. I expect : Call to arms, Classic Login, Sargeras theme, Zandalari theme, Proudmore battle theme ...
Pusilli Rex Yes, exactly. You get familiar with the music and it's always stuck in your head, and me, being obsessed with WoW music, it makes me want to go back and play it more to hear that. I love the melody in Legion. It matches perfectly and it's so pretty.
It's interesting that the only WoW intro that did not seem to be pieced together from various songs was the Vanilla and the Burning Crusade intros. Maybe that's why they are so short.
The giveaway that it's a fan-made compilation is that it sounds nothing like a WoW login screen. They always have a variation of the original one from Vanilla, with maybe a bit added in from new race zones or whatnot.
There are actually so many musical call-backs in this piece that it's nearly impossible to count them all, yet huge portions of it feel unique and use such a range of instruments. I particularly liked the lighter strings and the woodwind pipes. My only complaint is that there are a few places where the transitions feel a bit bumpy, or jolting, but maybe that is intentional given the apparent themes in Battle for Azeroth. Also, you can never go wrong ending with kettle drums into vocal chants. Thanks for bringing this to us all!
ik this is a fan creation. HOWEVER ...I love this mix and it has earned a special place on my warcraft playlist that i downloaded on my phone. ik due to rough transitions and cataclysm music in 2 dif parts. love the list man. make some more
Oh. My. God. I just imagined that the login screen would be Teldrassil burning in the background with grunts vs footmen on the shores. Imagine that rendered in 3D!
If this really is the official login music...it sounds sort of......final. Like this sounds like an apocalyptic ending that could lead to a WoW sequel or Warcraft IV.....or both. :D
I can already picture the login screen proper, Teldrassil burning in the background, and in the foreground a torn up Alliance banner on one side and a torn up Horde banner on the other.
"From the depths rises an unspeakable evil. Ever present, ever plotting, ever eternal. Beware mortals!! For Nzoth rises!!!! Quake in fear as the madness consumes you!!! Soon, all will fall before him!"! Anyways, that's what I felt someone who follows the Old Gods would say after Nzoth rises just from listening the 1st two minutes.
Damn... it could just be used like this. All the intro’s use the same type of pieces! Love it! You really did a good job, don’t be surprised that Blizz will use it, though! 😉
I LOVE this music. Nearly at the beggining it looks like is the end of Azeroth by a catastrophe made not by demons or void lords, but by internal war @.@
I much much prefer this Login Suite to the actual one that has been revealed, this one brings tension and suspense the other just sounds a little too dull....
2:36 I hear this and the only image that pops in my head is a bunch of goblins and another bunch of gnomes trying to be pirates and bomb each other, ... and failing...HARD! xD
Fan compiled or not, you can't deny that this expansion is going to have some fucking epic music. This hype train is going too slow, I need BFA in my life, like, yesterday.
i'd also love if there were two, randomly switched when logging in.. sometimes it's the doors of lordaeron and sometimes the burning of teldrassil. would be awesome but probably too much effort
It would be too much work, especially sine the login screens have some animation work done in them. To make & animate two login screens & then put a randomizer on said login screen would be a pain in the ass to make. Cool yes, but hard as hell to implement.
Loving the intro this time around. Beats the heck out of Legion's cacaphony. "BLART! blurwurwurrrrp...." (even if all of these have been awesome some just take a bit)
This is NOT the official login screen music. It's a fan compilation of BfA music 'pieced together' as the description CLEARLY says. Nonetheless, I'm fine with it.
Isn't 1:56 from the Cataclysm soundtrack? Edit: nevermind, it's part of Legends of Azeroth, the vanilla login music. Although it does sound like they used the Cataclysm version.
Ive been playing for 12 years, I will continue this journey for as long as it goes on. Everyone dreams of being part of a massive story and those of us who have stuck with WoW have been a part of one. If my body allows it I will be there the day it all ends. Here's to another decade. We shall walk along side one another in the emerald dream. #forthehorde
Gosh I don't know how I'd feel when W.o.W ends. Part of me wouldn't really care since I'm not an active part of it anymore, but there's nothing like going back to your old toons.
The wallpaper is official? If so, that must be Teldrassil in the background aka Darnassus, finally depicted as it is supposed to look like in lore, a large tree and not the ''tree trunk'' that we known in-game. It was made a tree trunk in vanilla due to in-game limitations, perhaps they finally depict it as a large tree in BfA??
IMO the reason BFA failed: they left classes in a broken and/or unfinished state the entire expansion. No point in playing the game if you're class of choice is an unfinished dumpster fire that they "ran out of time" with. All the content releases mean nothing if your class is broke. They really only needed to make minor changes from the Legion iterations but in typical blizz fashion they attempted to re-invent the wheel for no reason. Then of course they ran out of time so the proverbial wheel that was the classes was left as a half circle for the rest of expansion.
Oh how cleaving off sylvanas head would be such a satisfying act. Then the horde could become a strong faction again and one that would be worth fighting !
Not before we remove the heads of the wretched traitors and warmongers in Stormwind! Anduin, Jaina, Genn, and anyone else who dares to wage war on the people of Lordaeron without provocation!

Actually 1:55 called "Sacred" in album.
The beginning reminded me a lot of Gustav Holst - The Planets - Mars, the Bringer of War, which is quite fitting.

When no one wants to admit 7:22 is the best part.
It's actually the original login theme from alpha to beta.
I won’t be surprised if ALOT of Classic music remakes are popped into the main themes of BFA, I mean if Classic is vanilla, BFA is Cookies and cream :P
actually the original is from warcraft 3
and whys that....?
Yeeeees, it's my favorite music from WoW, it will be so super if it would be this music is on the login screen :D
The title doesn't make it clear that it is fan made.
it is? then fuck them
It's a fan made compilation of official music in BFA
Most of that music is not from BFA.
KnightCaster this is music from BfA
Edigo, Let's Plays, Tutorials und mehr !
No. It’s not. Not all of it at least. 7:22 is vanilla/cata.
That Sargeras theme at the beginning, though...
its alpha music for login suite... always any login of wow need the Sargeras theme xD
The login screen will probably be that sword on silithus.
Cami Troche maybe... But bfa it looks like the cata login screan theme, the hype is real
You know this is fan made right?
fitting tbh
Every single time I hear Call to Arms, tears come into my eyes. This version is simply the best for me... Honor to Brower!
is Legends of Azeroth
Maria RR no the shattering
Wow cataclysm login screen legends of azeroth remix
Picture this as the login screen for battle for azeroth. You enter the screen with a pretty Teldrassil there gleaming in the night, but all of a sudden it instantly bursts aflame and the login music begins.
Gahdaym
Like WoD's Dark Portal
OH SHIT that would be FKIN SWEET.
Instead se got two fucking helmets in front of Undercity
lol i like how people say "its fake its just pieces together: .....WOOOOW you guys are so smart (description : "A preview of the music in the upcoming expansion, pieced together as a login suite.") .... :P

better than the official blizz one
Better than the actual Login Screen of BFA.
yeah
Imagine the first minute of the theme as you would see in a badass motion picture made by Blizz, how the first moments of the universe are created. An eternal clash of cosmic scope between the grand two forces which is all about in the long game. The Void and the Light. Clashing endlessly destroying eachother on and on, countless of times for the end of times to come.
It would be very off-putting. They almost had that for vanilla.
Thats a better title screen than the one they have now
People saying this is a pieced together music, I know this is a preview created by a fan
But wtf, most of login musics are just 30s to 1min of orginal music and then they are musics from the expansion pieced together
They're just medley
lmfao sounds like just about half of the soundtracks from legion. couple originals, rest are just fucking copies of everything else
Actually there is a good reason behind this.
If you know anything about opera is that it's about storytelling supported by music.
Wow is an opera in its own way.
And at the beginning of each opera, plays a special music, that has the role of summary for what is to come. I forgot how it's called, but basically it's the theme of all the major characters and events fit into a single music, not telling much about how things will unfold, but telling you who and what will it be about. Unlike a summary that would just list chapters and names for them, it lists character themes and important event tunes. Like for instance the song for a betrayal. It's not exactly the same, but it uses the same key and main notes. The rythm and arrangement usually differ a bit.
WoW's login screen always has done exactly that. Battle for Azeroth's not going to be any different. There will be a few original themes, I expect a Tirasian theme, a troll theme, with a martial intro (perhaps even a new version of call to arms).
I think the suite proposed here is good, but i find it unlikely to find all of these in the login theme.
I expect : Call to arms, Classic Login, Sargeras theme, Zandalari theme, Proudmore battle theme ...
I know, I know, I think a medley is the best way to represent the game's expansion's music anyways
Pusilli Rex
Yes, exactly. You get familiar with the music and it's always stuck in your head, and me, being obsessed with WoW music, it makes me want to go back and play it more to hear that.
I love the melody in Legion. It matches perfectly and it's so pretty.
It's interesting that the only WoW intro that did not seem to be pieced together from various songs was the Vanilla and the Burning Crusade intros. Maybe that's why they are so short.
4:44 When you hire a composer from Bethesda to do your soundtrack
The beginning that gives you the feeling "Well, here we go again hero's!"
I completely agree, puts us in the shoes of a guy who is well versed with war and the fear of it has dwindled, atleast thats what i think
Wasn't crazy about the cartoony "evil", "demonic" sounds in Legion's loading screen theme but this is FUCKING EPIC!
4:10
The part right after is even better.
That would very fit either safe zone of Zandalar city of Gold OR the Vulpara theme
Is a Quena, a flute of Peru
Troll theme :)
I think it’s the theme for Zandalar
I like how he changed from sargerase's theme to cataclysm login screen 1/4 in the song X3 all in all it sounds AWSOME ^^
The giveaway that it's a fan-made compilation is that it sounds nothing like a WoW login screen. They always have a variation of the original one from Vanilla, with maybe a bit added in from new race zones or whatnot.
There are actually so many musical call-backs in this piece that it's nearly impossible to count them all, yet huge portions of it feel unique and use such a range of instruments.

So incredibly close to what they actually released, and this one was good too.
ik this is a fan creation. HOWEVER ...I love this mix and it has earned a special place on my warcraft playlist that i downloaded on my phone.
ik due to rough transitions and cataclysm music in 2 dif parts.
love the list man. make some more
sounds way better than the official one
Oh. My. God. I just imagined that the login screen would be Teldrassil burning in the background with grunts vs footmen on the shores. Imagine that rendered in 3D!

I can already picture the login screen proper, Teldrassil burning in the background, and in the foreground a torn up Alliance banner on one side and a torn up Horde banner on the other.
This is awesome! I love the remastered version of the Classic Login screen music at the end. :)
Sounds exactly like the end of The Cataclysm login music.
All login screens have a portion of "Legends of Azeroth" & "Call to Arms" in them which are from the Vanilla login screen.
Silvanas , Nathanos And Saurfang stanging there gave mes chills
so badass
I replaced the actual login music with this.
"From the depths rises an unspeakable evil. Ever present, ever plotting, ever eternal. Beware mortals!! For Nzoth rises!!!! Quake in fear as the madness consumes you!!! Soon, all will fall before him!"! Anyways, that's what I felt someone who follows the Old Gods would say after Nzoth rises just from listening the 1st two minutes.
Hm, recently Blizzard posted main theme of BfA... So, to be honest, I prefer this version.
I played this at the same time with Gustav Holst - The Planets - Mars IT FREAKING GOES TOGETHER REALLY WELL
the Cataclysm parts inbetween... kek
I totally love the Zandalari music. Hopefully there will be a longer piece when the xpac releases
Damn... it could just be used like this.
All the intro’s use the same type of pieces! Love it! You really did a good job, don’t be surprised that Blizz will use it, though! 😉
I LOVE this music. Nearly at the beggining it looks like is the end of Azeroth by a catastrophe made not by demons or void lords, but by internal war @.@
If this is the true login screen music, this is the best we ever got.
7:24 My favourite part. Even in vanilla and Cataclysm
I much much prefer this Login Suite to the actual one that has been revealed, this one brings tension and suspense the other just sounds a little too dull....
Man WoW is such fucking Titan of a game, they have literally best art and best music by far on the market.
City of gold is a beautiful piece of music. Finaly some good horde music.
Someone burned Teldrasill. I don't know who, but when I find out, they're going to regret the day they pissed off a Demon Hunter.
OcularCentaur42 and a Death Knight. You don’t take from the dead what they held dear when they lived.
Bloodfang Damn straight
Lordaeron will be ours.
May not have lived there for long but you can be damn sure the Worgen will avenge the homeland of the people who saved them in their time of need
and a druid
Much better than the original, specially the first minutes
That's some badass music for a login screen.
Just listened to all wow music from Vanilla to legion and this...I still feel the vanilla music is the best
so much better than the official one
2:36 I hear this and the only image that pops in my head is a bunch of goblins and another bunch of gnomes trying to be pirates and bomb each other, ... and failing...HARD! xD
damn the intro got me hyped, really feeling the alliance vs horde war
Fan compiled or not, you can't deny that this expansion is going to have some fucking epic music. This hype train is going too slow, I need BFA in my life, like, yesterday.
This did't age well...
6:21 OMG OMG !!
Ahmed what is the name though
It's one of the "City of Gold" zandalari musics.
ua-cam.com/video/ZMrxZj4JCCQ/v-deo.htmlh8m13s
INCRIVEL!!!!!!!!!!!!
For the horde!
FOR ZANDALAR!!!
this is so much better than the actual one :(
This sounds better than the actual login screen for BFA.. :p
Cata music was a peak.. cant deny that..
login screen - gates of lorderon during battle
i'd also love if there were two, randomly switched when logging in.. sometimes it's the doors of lordaeron and sometimes the burning of teldrassil. would be awesome but probably too much effort
It would be too much work, especially sine the login screens have some animation work done in them. To make & animate two login screens & then put a randomizer on said login screen would be a pain in the ass to make. Cool yes, but hard as hell to implement.
Hellfire918 But not impossible
You are... Nostradamus!
Loving the intro this time around. Beats the heck out of Legion's cacaphony. "BLART! blurwurwurrrrp...." (even if all of these have been awesome some just take a bit)
It's a fan-mix, not the actual login theme.
The very beginning gives me some imperial march vibes and I love it
What I was waiting for! Thank you!
Now we know the TRUE SONG
I don't know much about music theory, but the transitions between each piece sound less smooth than the expansion login track for every other xpac.
okay! Who burned down my tree!? I was looking forward for that thing to actually grow so I could get my immortality back.
its better than official one
Este tema esta mejor que el original
I really, REALLY miss the simple beauty of "Legends of Azeroth" as login screen music.
The ending motif is a throwback to I think Vanilla, a bit. I could be confusing it with some of the later ones (LK and/or Cata).
Frank Narvaez you mean Cataclysm
Yes, hence my "I could be confusing it with some of the later ones "LK and/or Cata".
Hm, you can listen that Russell Brower isn't responsible for the WoW music anymore. The instrumentation now fits more my tastes.
Amazing!
Better than current one.
Es un fan made pero extraño mucho esa última pieza que sonó al final del login screen ost de Cataclysm :'( 7:22
From 0:10 to 0:15 I get some Avengers vibes, I don't know why...
I wish this was the login screen music for BFA!
This is NOT the official login screen music. It's a fan compilation of BfA music 'pieced together' as the description CLEARLY says.
Nonetheless, I'm fine with it.
THIS IS GORGEOUS!
Can't wait
Isn't 1:56 from the Cataclysm soundtrack?
Edit: nevermind, it's part of Legends of Azeroth, the vanilla login music. Although it does sound like they used the Cataclysm version.
It comes from Cataclysm. It's music of the Scarlet Enclave.
This sounds legit. Well made!
Anyone feels like the song at around 5:30 is from Disciples 2 ? Like its that eerie and dark feel to it.
Sylvanas won't be dying this expansion. She was put as Warchief for a reason... And not for the reason you think.
They could put this picture on the loading screen, I'd really like to see those shades once in a while
exactly, I dont much like the idea of the sylvanas vs anduin loading screen
I NEED THIS AS MY OFFICIAL HOMEWORK MUSIC
The beginning is really good though
Ive been playing for 12 years, I will continue this journey for as long as it goes on.

I swear, if the official login theme is not as good as this one, i'm going to replace the file with this one (yeah, it's possible)
FOR THE ALLIANCE
Goosebumps 7:59
I think stating that this is fan-made is the right thing to do ;) but well done.
We've come a long way..
Love the vanilla end
I'm glad this isn't real. Still, the music at the beginning is epic
Valthirian Sunstrider actually the pic is real.
I mean, it is real. It can't be fake...So...
The wallpaper is official? If so, that must be Teldrassil in the background aka Darnassus, finally depicted as it is supposed to look like in lore, a large tree and not the ''tree trunk'' that we known in-game. It was made a tree trunk in vanilla due to in-game limitations, perhaps they finally depict it as a large tree in BfA??
It is from a book. It burned down.
Or I think it is
it is
This Moment when Music just cant be better.
IMO the reason BFA failed: they left classes in a broken and/or unfinished state the entire expansion. No point in playing the game if you're class of choice is an unfinished dumpster fire that they "ran out of time" with. All the content releases mean nothing if your class is broke. They really only needed to make minor changes from the Legion iterations but in typical blizz fashion they attempted to re-invent the wheel for no reason. Then of course they ran out of time so the proverbial wheel that was the classes was left as a half circle for the rest of expansion.
Awesome music
Always epic
This may be fan made but tbh I would be happy with this being it lol
FOR THE HORDE!!💪
4:20 is gorgeous.
If this is real, it’s amazing and I look forward to it!!!!
FOR THE SWARRRRRRM!!!!
hehe. Hearthstone reference. xD
Am I the only one who thinks that the very beginning sounds a lot like Vanilla login screen music?
Oh how cleaving off sylvanas head would be such a satisfying act. Then the horde could become a strong faction again and one that would be worth fighting !
Hanging in front of the Wrath Gate, while her visions of hell become a reality and Undercity burns?
Not before we remove the heads of the wretched traitors and warmongers in Stormwind! Anduin, Jaina, Genn, and anyone else who dares to wage war on the people of Lordaeron without provocation!
Bleeding Eye Watcher without provocation?! Teldrassil?!
Not every leader is going to be good.
Baine2020!!!!
7:22 Best part. Every. Fucking. Time.
¡Por la alianza!
I LOVE 3:20 !!! FOR THE ALLIANCE !!!!!!!! FOR AZEROTH !!!!!!!
Zandalari theme is much better
For you... i love that part... -.-"
For the Horde, you should know by now the rebels never lose
Which track or theme starts at that time? Love it.
Horde losers can gtfo
