This video was put together by Melvenor, who did something novel with the music. He covered some of the most popular themes from Cataclysm on guitar. The result is a beautiful movie with some amazing music.
Melvenor really proves how creative people tend to expand in more than one area. He's not just a machinima maker; he's also a fairly impressive musician. I was blown away by how well he translated the game's music to a new format. It's definitely great fodder for background music or even spending a night with some headphones and a touch of brandy.
As always, Melvenor does some amazing stuff. You should definitely take the time to check this movie out.

It kinda puts this whole 'western' tone to the music, which is...surprisingly awesome. I'd love to hear some styles like this in game :-D

This was amazing. The music gave me goosebumbs. Stunning interpretation.

Nicely done. It's reminiscent of the Tristram music from the original Diablo.

Aww I love Melvenor! He also did a Storm Peaks theme cover, check it out, it's amazing :)

That's fantastic! I really hope he does more, such as the music from Ulduar or Kara.
I wouldn't call Storm Peaks a "Cataclysm" theme but whatever. S'all good.
