i like the background noise at around 1:34 where it sounds like my ps3 trying to read a n64 game

[sylvixen]

probably the most chill song in the game, makes you want to build and think more

[Ephlaght]

I love the little Minecraft motifs at 1:40. Always neat to hear the main motif.

[cheesewizard]

This really brings a lot of different conflicting images into my head all at once:
-a sunset over an open wide field of wheat
-a tropical paradise where waves clash against glistening beachheads
-a great machine, full of pistons and wires, constantly pumping and moving
-the muses, writing extravagant stories and exquisite songs to the vast world surrounding them
-a club hosting a dual orchestra and jazz band

[nanwav]

This would constantly play on the first server I ever played on. There were jukeboxes at spawn and everybody would just fight over them and cram discs in it. This was the most common though :)

[valstrashcan]

The perfect song for mapmakers that are working on a super-flat world with the preset of redstone ready

[rubiksmaster]

Typing Strad on the keyboard uses only the left hand

[njszajcryz]

*Me plays music*
*Flashbacks to the three Architects having a meeting while the other gets distracted to the music and dancing parrots*

[salenseadancer]

This one makes me really nostalgic cause when I first started playing the game a few years back, I had a flat water world with a little floating tropical village and it was really calm and peaceful just sitting in a little water hut and listening to this, but after my older sisters started playing as well, they deleted most of my worlds to "make room" for like, a bajillion random flat worlds where they built 1 house and never touched it again.

[infernon]

for whatever reason i'm really emotionally connected to this song. to me it's about happier times that are long gone

[lukeofender]

who else feels like they're on a tropical island/beach? be honest.

[bola]

All of C418's songs remind me of death it's hard to explain

[inactive]

I can’t help but to imagine this song being in a documentary for some reason

[esrefhole]

this feels like waking up on a tropical island on a spring morning.

[yikes]

I feel this is definitely the most well-composed music disc, with by far the most complex instrumentation and makes great use of C418's proficiency in ambience

[ryou]

probably my favorite of the music discs XD

[justcallmejustin]

This song sounds like the theme of survival Minecraft for me personally, I imagine it something like this:

0:00 You start off with nothing but a forest to your left and an ocean to your right
0:20 You start gathering resource
0:30 You make a crafting table to make the essentials
0:40 You die for the first time
0:45 You make a small house and go mining
1:17 You've gathered everything you need underground and decide to try The Nether
1:27 You've died many times in the nether trying to find the fortress
1:46 You've spotted the fortress and have fought for pearls and rods
2:00 You start following the eyes to the stronghold
2:19 You've dug down and reached the stronghold
2:29 You start putting the eyes in the frame
2:45 You prepare everything you need before facing The Dragon
3:00 You fight The Dragon
3:06 You have beaten the game and have collected the Dragon's egg as a souvenir for your house

[elijahloiacono]

I can't even count how many times I've fallen asleep to this song. It's just the epitome of calm. Easily my favorite music disc.

[Venom-Boiii]

This is like sitting on the beach on a clear, sunny day. The waves are crashing into the sand, the sun is warming up your face, and your toes sink into the sand.
You look up and see the clear sky perfectly in line with the blue ocean, and for a few minutes, you feel like you’re at peace.

Next time you go to a beach, listen to this song. Trust me.

[davidschultz]

You have just landed on a remote island, your ship completely destroyed. You rub your eyes, shaking the dust off your eyes. You squint to see palm trees, parrots, and monkeys. There is not a shred of the human race in sight. You feel a sense of loneliness and sadness. As the hours pass, and as the sun sets, you begin to accept your new reality. You realize are the only one of your species within hundreds of kilometers. But the island is simply beautiful. And a grin escapes you, realizing that your next chapter will be a special kind of paradise.
