Minecraft is a wonderful game for many reasons. You have unparalleled creative freedom, years of incredible developmental support and attentive community management, and a wonderfully positive—though sometimes childish—audience. However, the entire essence of the game is reliant on something every Minecraft player has grown to love. A constant that subtly narrates your gameplay, keeps you calm when a creeper kills you far from home, and provides the undertones that cement the heart and soul of Minecraft into each and every player.

Of course, I’m talking about Minecraft’s genius soundtrack, composed by German Musician Daniel Rosenfeld, better known as C418. When he teamed up with Notch in the earliest days of Minecraft, he wasn’t established in the music scene. In many ways, he was still an amateur. But as Minecraft exploded, his competence was recognized. People absolutely loved it. But despite the recognition that the music got and has gotten over the years, I still believe the score is grossly underrated. Without the music, Minecraft just isn’t the same, which is something that can only be said about a handful of games. In fact, I believe Minecraft’s music is one of the absolute best in the history of video games, rivaling even legendary titles like Tetris and Mario. While people understand the quality, there’s much more to be uncovered beneath the surface, like how, even after hundreds of hours it doesn’t get old, how it perfectly creates an atmosphere for a game with an ambiguous atmosphere, and how it creates more nostalgia than any other soundtrack I’ve encountered. So, stay tuned, because today I’m going to walk through why, exactly, Minecraft’s music is so incredible.
