Music isn’t a word that comes to mind when one tries to recall their favorite Minecraft memories. Surely, there are many sounds in the game, like the sound of placing dirt, killing a bird, creeper blowing up, and so on. But most players like to lower the music down when they’re to the point that there’s no music to be heard.
The music composed for Minecraft by C418 and Lena Raine is a masterpiece; many critics enjoyed and loved the music created for the game. Unfortunately, not many appreciate this masterpiece today. But there’s a way you can listen to every track from the soundtrack series without having to run around to different locations.
The jukebox accepts discs that play songs based on the number of the disc! The soundtracks are splendid; to say the least, they fit the game’s theme elegantly and add more depth to the game.
The music is nostalgic for many as the game is more than a decade old at this point.
From the dark and gritty storytelling in the broken disc to the happy and melodic disc number thirteen, the sound has a lot of variation. The soundtracks make you feel isolated in the world of Minecraft, a feeling which not many games can provide.
Music Disc in Minecraft
Music discs have been a part of Minecraft since the start; the artist who created these background scores had first added previews of many tracks on youtube before the game was officially released to the masses.
When playing music using discs and jukeboxes was first introduced, the fans only had positive thoughts over the gimmick.
As of now, there are 13 different discs in the game, and the Pigstep was added just recently in the Nether Update! So the number of discs might keep going up as the game receives more and more updates.

1. Chirp
The disc is one of the most beloved discs in the entire Minecraft community. There is something special about the way the song is textured and mastered. The gritty noises coming in the background make the track one of the best; the music sounds nostalgic even if you’ve only heard it once in your life.

2. Ward
Ward is a dark and gloomy track from the album; it starts with a sample and then transitions into a smooth synth lead. The synths used are bold, at times even masking the entire song.
This is the track you should play if you’ve built your base in the nether or a dark place. The sound of the song is one that villains would use when they entered a scene! The disc can be obtained when a stray or a skeleton kills a creeper.
3. Mall
The mall is the track, and for the sunny days in Minecraft, you just feel like fishing on the beach. The tranquil and soothing tune of the song will surely lighten your mood and make you happy. The melodies in the track aren’t anything complex or revolutionary, but sometimes even the simplest things leave a lasting impression.
