I think what is great is the fact that the music doesn't non stop play while playing, so when it does, you appreciate it and it never gets annoying.
I did actually turn of music at some point, but after a while I truned it on again because they're nice and well written, plus I have memories
Sometimes I wait for the music to start up again. It is lonely without it.
It was nearly constant on legacy console
@@MitsuIsSleepy yeah, and god damn loud too
Classic feeling. Haggstrom atop the hill.
It's funny. Most people think of Minecraft and imagine the crazed community of annoying youtubers and 12-year-olds. I think of it and remember evenings spent mining or decorating my rustic little house in the woods.
Or the music
@@SoloSlater most old minecraft youtubers have either moved on or became annoying and scream everytime they see a slight loading glitch in the world. Some of them ain't even uploading anymore, they're just... dead channels now. Except for Jordan, he's good.
Annoying 12 year olds are fortnite kids.
Ah, just wait till they meet the fortnite community. They’ll never understand “annoying children” ever again.
@@Constantine_Cvl8 yeah R.I.P
remember dan's mc mod reviews rip, nostalgia
Falling asleep to the soundtrack sounds like a cool idea until you wake up in the middle of night during disc 13 and never sleep again
Or disc 11
The end
I could listen to Eleven, not 11 but Eleven
I sleep to creative music
DO NOT DO VOLUME BETA
You might sleep through the nether music, the the end of The End will wake you up
The worst thing about Minecraft is remembering the feeling you had while playing it for the first time, knowing that you won't experience it ever again
that’s not even really a bad thing, as the memory will always stay with you and bring you joy again. at least, that’s how it is for me.
That's a good thing because I was really scared of everything. Night, monsters , cave sounds, even villagers.
I can't ever get my Original world back, the X box it was on was destroyed, and we ended up throwing it away
I don't even remember the first time I played it, and now I know I can't relive it
I feel like that's another thing the song The End is trying to capture, not being able to relive your past and having to create new memories.
"Floating trees plays for 'relaxing'"
*proceeds to show misplacing a block without a pickaxe*
Or a literal tree that someone left floating
@@georgehumphreys1105 thats what i was thinking
Lol and then he tries to get it out of a chest and it won’t open
and its right above the chest ;-;
he calmly crafted a new one. it is easy to fix problems in this game.
C418 did a spectacular Job on the soundtrack. I honestly don't think I would've had an as strong attachment to the game without it. Heck, I don't think I would have ever came back to the game without it.
Spicypicklez I wish you could give awards on RUclips
@@jman507gaming4 Like on reddit?
Reda Bouirig yeah
He created music disc 11
Lena Raine is doing an amazing job on the new tracks though.
Actual title: explaining why you will cry to the minecraft music
I'm not the only one that cries when i hear it?....that makes me feel better
True
i started minecraft back when the nether reactor was a thing and when the actual nether came out, and i heard dead voxel. That is when i realized the grim reality of the at the time new place set in. Now, Voxel is just a reminder of an easier time, a time when we could all just hangout and have fun. Now look at us, stuck in the middle of a pandemic, Forced to wear a piece of cloth over our faces and leave our friends. God i miss 2011.
Fun fact: Ghasts were voiced by cats; so whenever you listen to a ghast or the song with one in the background, think of a annoyed cat.
This would actually explain the name of the song Ballad of the Cats. The cats are actually ghasts, so it really means, sad song of the ghasts. Which makes since even more, because of the advancement Uneasy Alliance. Ghasts are trapped in the nether. This is why they cry, and why their song is one of the most horrifying and heartbreaking.
The cat was asleep and they said that she sounds like a human when she is asleep there just so happened to be a mic where she decided to sleep so that’s how he got it
hey brother
@@raccoon9681 hello
Did you mean: Understanding a musical masterpiece?
Yes
100%
True
@Airil A so true still
You don't get better than jhon williams and koji kondo

"So, what does Minecraft music remind you of?"
Liam: "Arson"
"Wut"
"Friends... I meant friends..."
It reminds me of killing my cousin in the game
It reminds me of building my castle
friends? does he mean ruclips.net/video/OEboG4LnUBI/видео.html
Arson with friends
In my opinion "Alpha" is one of the best music pieces, as it accompanies the End Poem and credits after you kill the ender dragon. It is 10 minutes long and one of the most emotional pieces in minecraft, being very well written
I could not agree more
Alpha is my favorite for sure
I agree I listen to it all the time
I love the nether and am glad they did some more in the nether update
I totally agree. It is for some reason very underrated, unfortunately...
i've said this before but i'll say it again:
i'm gonna hear "The End" on my deathbed. the piano melody is so haunting, and it's also _exactly the same as Sweden's melody,_ just in an entirely different context.
wouldn't it be a bad end? ive decided i wanted aria math in mine bc how it feels happy yet melancholic, adventurous yet calming. its my favorite one
this just shows all the end theories about how it is corrupted and it used to be maybe the aether and the dragon or some other thing corrupted it and turned the humans living there into endermen
at my funeral, i want beginning 2 to play.
I don't know the piano melody makes me feel hopeful its like a hero's theme like its time to finish this type melody i don't know I'm weird
"The End" is my favorite soundtrack of Minecraft, but I don’t listen to it a lot. Not because of the fact that it is 15 minutes long, but because of how powerful it is. It really plays with my emotions. Thank you for this video
Especially the Sweden part
Same, I always get creeped out, and chills
My brother and I wanted to kill the Ender Dragon after a long time of holding it out in survival. When we finally came into the end and that exact song you mentioned came in, I recognised it from the full soundtrack, I recognised that it was that song, because it sounded like the normal Minecraft theme but distorted. Then when we took down all of the healing crystals, and we finally started with taking down the dragon, and at that moment the epic beat that I can't really describe kicked in. I don't know if you understand what I am talking about, listen to the soundtrack (The End) at around a little more then 8 minutes. While that music played, we fought the dragon and it was one of the most hypeful and at the same time very grand and terrifying moments we had ever had in the game. Hearing all those overworld songs again, all distorted but still recognisable, made the whole fight extra great and grand. Man this game gives you the feels...
It reminds you it’s the end...
Same the nether songs and the end are soo impactful I love
This video reminded me why I like watching breakdowns. You could have very easily filled this too the brim with out of context memes, awkward pauses and zoom-ins, along with lots of horrible puns. While not managing to make a single point. But you actually put effort into this. You tried too convey how each piece makes you feel. Even showing a bit of understanding of music yourself. This also clearly took some real effort. You should be applauded for conveying in a wonderful way what clearly means a lot too you.
Thank you for that.
Why did i read this in gggmanlives's voice
Yet he only got 50k views
Slmccl?
@@KracklinDark ?
@@aninditapaul9291 Slmcll sounds like the youtuber he described. Especially with the puns.
I love how emotionally charged the minecraft soundtrack is. I was close to tears with a couple songs.
I felt so much when the end theme kicked in
Whenever Sweden or Wet Hands comes on, I pretty much lose my shit
“Dead Voxel” and “Concrete Halls” carry the strongest memories for me.
Tornado wet hands for me... so bad I have to stop playing
Ballad of the cats
I fuckin' love dead voxel aaa-
You spent a lot of time in the nether XD
Yeah concrete halls reminds of exploring a nether fortress but I don’t have much memories related to dead voxel and concrete halls since I don’t bust nether a lot
I still want to understand who put creepy noises at random in the game.
Amonimus it plays in unlit caves. if you hear any of the sounds, it means theres a cave nearby :)
@@resiseven7407 This comment is five months old, but additionally it also plays at set times. You'll hear that noise at sunrise, noon, sunset, and midnight, so if you know roughly when you went into a cave what time it was, you can actually track how long you've been in the cave itself and roughly when it's safe to leave the cave and make a run back for your house!
Kaytehh holy shit, that's so cool! thank you for the info
C418 was a great troll
C418
the Nether music was always my favorite, the atmosphere is just so heavy, its intimidating yet oddly relaxing at the same time. this soundtraack doesnt get enough appreciation. sure, people will say its good but never anything as in depth as this. great video man!
yeah i love the music in the nether. to me the music seems like something you should not be hearing, but want to stay so you can finish it.
I like the End theme. The normal minecraft music slowly distorting into emptiness
I always get a weird feel when I hear that same for the end I dont know why I just do maybe its the many memories of me dying pets dying and just nightmares
Pigstep isn't the best but pop off
@@_havien3 Pigstep obviously doesn't fit in with the general atmosphere created by C418's and Lena Raine's other compositions for the Nether, but this song should by no means be taken as a part of the Nether's soundtrack.
It's a music disc. You acquire it as a reward from clearing a specific location that would be otherwise impossible to obtain. Just like the other records, they're meant to be aspects of Minecraft's ost extrapolated and exaggerated to the nth degree. The same way pieces like Stal, Blocks, Cat, or Ward would be completely unfitting if they played as normal Minecraft music but work so well as records, Pigstep is too.
You're allowed to still dislike Pigstep, of course, but I just felt like explaining why Pigstep shouldn't be disliked for the specific reason of "it's unfitting."
This video taught me that listening minecraft nether music alone in a dark room in the middle of the night is not a good idea.
Any music disc can be creepy if in the perfect circumstances
Actually listening to the music from the end made me think of something. The nether isn’t another dimension, it’s just the planets mantle, hence the kinda similar but more grungy music. The music in the end is a distorted and jacked up version of the main theme. So what if the end isn’t another dimension, but the end. What if the end is what’s left of the planet, years and years into the future?
Actually from the games point the nether is the underworld of the overworld and the end is above.
HorrorFan 8785 and from our point of view, earths mantle is the underworld. What’s your point?
HorrorFan 8785 are you suggesting that the end is heaven, or just plain old space?
HorrorFan 8785 I guess considering the mysteries in Minecraft that wouldn’t be too far off either.
I'm saying that the nether is underneath bedrock and the end is above the world aka space
disc 13 is incredibly underrated. most people push it aside because its creepy, and it does a great job being creepy. the bells and sounds work really well to create a scary atmosphere. while i probably wont put it on when i find it in minecraft, as a song its amazing.
i'm too much of a wuss to listen to it fully
The Ambiance during spelunking is more froghtening.
I think the music of the end is creepy
Uh, I wouldn’t count it as music but okay.
@@vibrantyt you are a disgrace to humanity
18:32
most clever transition I have ever witnessed. good job. I love this game to an incredible extent :)
that sounds like something in a slender game
Dude that creeped me out
dude you scared me-
That transition was awesome
Sounded like giorno's theme when its almost at the best part lol
The Minecraft music is a masterpiece. The messages it delivers, the feelings it causes on ourselves, the ambience it gives to the players, all of them are unique and beautiful. Thanks C418
Honestly when I listen to the Minecraft theme, I can just imagine open fields, forests, deserts and villages, with mobs just living their lives, looking and moving around, doing their usual stuff. Maybe sometimes I even see players, just doing their thing. I can only think of the words "what a wonderful world" when I hear it.
It truly is a wonderful world
A peaceful life .
that ending really overpowered me with emotion. wow.
You are the player.Wake up
Finally someone acknowledged the amazing nether music while talking about the soundtrack
is this...
it this a video that acknowledges the existence of volume beta?
impossible!
whats...volume... beta?????????
iLvL it’s a playlist that involves Dead Voxel, Concrete Halls, Aria Math, Taswell and Mall, among others.
Basically the one with all the creative mode songs. I was surprised to find out people didn’t like it. Eh, taste is taste.
The music prompts always creep me out/makes me feel alone in the world while also giving me the feeling someone is watching me in the shadows of the world somewhere. That's pretty much all I think about it. XD
Yeah, sometimes it can be relaxing and nostalgic but other times it can feel kinda lonely and creepy
Whenever i hear the end music , i feel someone watching me .
@@fishfood8711
I really want to get rid of that lonely creepy feel so I can vibe to some Minecraft Ost
Hey Liam, the 1.16 Java Nether Update will be bringing in new Ambient Sounds and a new Music Disc; all of which is composed by Lena Raines, Famous for the Celeste OST. Please consider doing an updated Music look when you've spent enough time in the Nether.
i really want to know the deep meaning about life in P I G S T E P
The new öusic just iant the same
Its only there to make you feel unpleasant, line being in hell
@@willemboele2079 Don't we all...
@@Kasmuller well it sounds cool,but yes it is different from the minecraft music we know of,but its like,a little different theme,ya know,something different from minecraft...but yes i wish C4 would make more music discs
"Dead Voxel" and "Concrete Halls" are the only two nether songs that I actually remember. Concrete Halls seems to always play when I'm at my local Nether fortress which is less than 100 blocks away from my Nether spawn and Dead Voxel seems to play when I'm doing anything else.
Edit: fixed a mistake autocorrect caused
Have you heard “ballad of the cats”
Actual title: how one man made a generation cry
The way you delivered teh wake up line sent such strong chills through my body that i have never felt before. This is possibly the greatest youtube video i’ve ever watched
Same!!!
The most nostalgic Minecraft song for me is Mice on Venus. When I first started playing in Release 1.1, that song played while I was climbing a mountain.
When I was about 12 I was playing minecraft with my brothers and my sisters and having a blast. We were building a house for my sister who had just joined us and fighting each other to see who was the best. That day has been one of my favorite memories by far, not because of the fun we had or who I was playing with, but because of the songs that played. All the songs from clark to Minecraft played and they just bring so much joy to me when I hear them. I feel like the songs aren't memories you can tweak but rather memories that are implanted and kept the same forever. And thats what makes the music so fascinating that every time you hear it you feel that feeling that almost everyone that has played minecraft have felt.
I remember when I was 7, I played Sweden for my Piano Recital
Did it go well?
Joy Stone yea
@@andrewkalustian You’re a legend
I'm so proud of you

I was bullied a lot during my first years of school and I didn't get to play Minecraft a whole lot but I watched stamps every video, and he had the music in the background. it made my childhood easier to watch him so every nearly time I hear the Minecraft music I cry, because of all the emotions I had and are connected to it. now I have had Minecraft for nearly two years and I been playing it nearly all the time I have had the game
Feeling a bit depressed now. But this video and Minecraft music made my night so much happier. Thanks much
I mean this video made me a little sad cuz it reminds me of everything I did in Minecraft (all platforms) and now that is just memories..
I’ve forgotten how HAUNTING the music was in this game. Holy shit. 😭
Great video, man! 👏
Haunt Muskie was haunting you? XD
The first time I heard “The end”, I was sitting in my room at 12 pm with all the lights off while listening to the entire Minecraft soundtrack. It was an experience.
I’m a little sad that Alpha wasn’t mentioned here; I think it’s one of the best tracks in Volume Beta, however I’m glad you talked about The End. I never was particularly fond of this track just because of the white noise, but after hearing another opinion, I kinda like it now!
15:40 See, that's very interesting, because instead of depressing I find that track reassuring, a brief moment of peace from the monsters wandering the halls. Minecraft's soundtrack, like the rest of the game, really is what you make it. :)
And for me I was told of the nether update (which I was wanting) and it started playing shortly after, so I inyerpret it as hopeful.
Yea, this is quite interesting, as I find it is sort of inspiring, and invokes bravery to tackle a new challenge.
Shame you didnt mention taswell, Its one of the most interesting tracks i've ever heard
What an anthem that track is, easily the best of the creative tracks
You didn’t only help me understand the music of Minecraft but you helped me understand myself better.

This makes me so sad ugh
The soundtrack that plays when you're in creative mode is the most nostalgic to me. I think that's just because I've always preferred that mode when I was younger.
Because I have played Minecraft since I was a little kid, every time I hear any of these songs they instantly bring me back to times where I am playing Minecraft with my friends. It is a nostalgic feeling of that I will have attached to this great game for the rest of my life.
Minecraft is one of the things that I hold quite close to my heart and It always calms me when I hear its music! I want to personally thank you for making this video!
Exactly! When I played Minecraft for the first time, I had so weird, interesting and unexplainable feeling. I'm sad that I've never experienced this feeling again...
That's story of the horse Hit me hard...
Wait is underrated, so is the nether music. The end song clearly has meaning, but it’s freaking irritating. The credits song sounds great.
Correct
Chirp isn't covered enough, me am sad.
I disagree with what you said about “The End” but everything else i agree with.
the end sounds like something the caretaker made
The End was AMAZING as it set the feeling for the islands ahead, it took a completely encompassed how I felt when I entered for the first time in Survival. When the heavier synth began to kick in, I was amped up to finally escape.
I do want to hear one thing though: What do you think of the new Nether tracks? I'm always interested in all the varied synths and the fact that they seem to fit greatly with different biomes there. Lena Raine was the perfect person for the job, she know how to create emotional tracks no matter what the instruments. It reminded me of many experiences, from Starbound's "Tranquility Base" to Black Mesa: Xen's "Hunting Grounds".
"Aria Math" has to be my favourite
Although, "Living Mice" is a very close second
Ward is my favorite, when it hits that key change it's bliss
This is my favorite review of the soundtrack, purely because of his review/illustration of The End.
I remember playing on a survival world with a friend where we had reached the dragon fight and as he shot the dragon dead the beat drop of cat played
Dude, you are the only person I have seen on the internet to gush about the track "The End". That track is an absolute masterpiece and I find to be deeply moving, thanks for bringing recognition to this grossly underrated soundtrack.
Theme of The End is just sounds of world ending and rebuilding, but rebuilding with flaws

The End is one of my favourite tracks. I always turn on music whenever I spend hours in the End searching for End cities. The silence interrupted by this piece is just something else.
Cat is and will forever be the anthem of my childhood. I remember playing it all of the time when me and my brother completely overhauled and reconstructed a village from the ground up together. I was hardly any good, given my young age, but it was fun and I’ll always look back so fondly on it.
"The End" song gives me chills and when it said Wake up in the credits I shUddereD
I am a veteran, in 2020, and well, this vid made me feel really Nostalgic, I mean I almost cried, all the good times I had in the game back then, I remember I was so excited to get it when I was little, just brings back the best memories, and I would ALWAYS, watch DanTdm XD, Hmm, Thank you so muxh for this vid bro, brought back many GREAT memories, just the songs made me feel this way, Like if u feel the same
Somewhat sad there was no mention for Underwater music. So bubbly, whirly and deep just like the ocean you're swimming in. It really encourages just to swim and look around how dolphins are playing with kelp leaves that fell off the fallen gravel, fishes swimming away from you, bubbles whirling from magma blocks in underwater ravines and caves 99% filled with water. Dragon Fish, Axolotl and Shuniji, every one is such a breeze to your ears, but Dragon Fish is my personal favorite, I especially associate it with my coop survival with friends when I travelled over 20k blocks through the Nether and got the Nether portal in a cave right in front of one underwater ravine. I was far away from home and friends and could not return home just yet, I needed to recover, so I built a little underwater house out of quartz I was collecting along the way through the Nether, also added few magma blocks to avoid drowning. And while I was doing that, I got Dragon Fish, like, thrice, but yet, I did not get sick of it, not even in the slightest, perhaps, I felt the depths of it even more every time I listened. I felt like it was one of the best things in that survival.
"To me, it's not Minecraft until that music starts fading in" -jschlatt
This is actually one of my favourite RUclips videos. Even though I’ve heard all the songs many times the way you describe them is so well done. That end song literally gave me goosebumps even though I’ve heard it before
This music...why am I crying right now?
this in my 15 years of life is the only youtube video that made me cry
9:32 I love the relaxing music being played over the torture that is that background footage
The ending of minecraft is one of my favorite pieces of literature or just presentations of literature that I've experienced. It's utterly beautiful.
"Sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart."
-Winnie the Pooh
I actually can cry from the nostalgia these songs bring. I can explain the feel of it. It's just beautiful!
"Beginning 2" Reminds me of when I first booted up minecraft legacy console edition. and I'll never forget that moment.
i have that exact memory too, it was the first game i got for my xbox 360. i sat there listening for at least 15 minutes, thinking about how much better the soundtrack was compared to the mobile version. (the mobile version's soundtrack is still really good, but it does not convey the sheer emotion conveyed by the xbox 360 version of the soundtrack)
...also, the more peaceful tracks sound even more amazing when it's raining : )
Its a asmr overload to me. So darn relaxing
That end bit chilled me, not in like a scary way, just super powerful. Absolutely fantastic video.
the fact that both bfg divison from doom 2016 and sweden from minecraft make me start to tear up is a testament to the power of music.
I can only regret having turned off the music during my return to this game. I felt a sad sense of nostalgia wash over me hearing the title screen music, and it was a tonnnnnn to handle. I grew up on Minecraft, and the background songs of this game have me wishing I could go back and relive the memories of being a child. It saddened me knowing that those memories are all I have. However, as of recent, I've been on-and-off about keeping the soundtrack playing. Usually, I disable it if I'm listening to something else but if I have nothing to listen to, that bad boy goes on. The points here about the timing of the music could never be more true. This video might cause me to break out of my shell and face my fears of new memories being created head-on. Thank you Liam.
Suggestion: Understanding the MUSIC of EarthBound
Also, I never realized how great Minecraft’s soundtrack is. And I really liked how you correlated the gameplay footage with the music examples, great work Liam!
My favourite is moog city beacause it reminds me of building ugly houses and contraptions on a superflat on the xbox 360.
First music track, that i heard, was "Dry Hands" in Alpha 1.1.2.
I remembered this moment for the rest of my life.
I was part of the OG crowd from 2012, and I never stopped playing. The game means so much to me, because it has shaped who I am in such a profound way that I could never live without it.
"Sweden" will always mean a lot to me as it was the first song I remember hearing in Minecraft
I felt the nostalgia when you were in that cave in the beta versions
I had been playing this game for 6 years, and i learnt Sweden and Wet Hands on the piano, and it's the best thing to play while it's raining outside
I *remember* the first time I ever played Minecraft. I *remember* the amazement I felt when I first spawned in and looked around. I *remember* the first tree I punched, the first hole I hid in, the first monster I killed, and the first home I built. But one thing I won't ever forget, is the feeling of hearing the Minecraft song play as I punched the dirt block over my head and saw the light of day.
There isn't a moment that passes where I try to hold back tears every time this particular song plays. Time goes to o fast that the present becomes the past in mere moments, but these memories, will last forever.
I can easily spend 15 minutes or more just listening to the "Mutation" track. It's empowering and beautiful.
I like how *The* *End* is basicly *Xen*
I remember as a kid (7 or 8 years old), waking up early before school to have a breathing treatment, since I had pretty bad asthma that had gone untreated for years because of incompetence from my old doctors, simply brushing it off as allergies and never giving me treatment (lol). I remember putting the mask around my head, my dad getting everything set up for me before he’d go to work, and smelling the albuterol as I’d breathe in and out. I’d always play Minecraft pocket edition to distract my self from falling asleep and also distract myself from the loud humming of the machine that basically was helping me continue to live and breathe like every other kid. I remember listening to the music and building block houses out of oak wood, just enjoying every single moment I was able to have with that tablet as I played Minecraft. I remember building a house in the side of a mountain, and just exploring all the time. Even years later, I love playing Minecraft with my friend at 4 AM. I just worry that when I’m older, I’ll never play Minecraft since I’ll be busy being an adult. I just wanna be a kid forever :(
For me, Clark has two memories associated with it.
The first is from 2013, where in a creative world, I got lost because I made and went through a random nether portal, but I was never able to find my way back to my builds. While I was fruitlessly trying to get back, this song played.
The second is more recent. Around the beginning of March, I went on a choir trip to LA,. On the plane ride home, I was listening to the minecraft soundtrack, and while the last light faded away, Clark started playing. Now, every time the song plays, I get a feeling of wanderlust, and I wish I could go back to those careless days in LA.
I have already watched a bunch of your other videos, but I never noticed this one. today it appeared in my recommended feed. the only thing I can say is thank you. it's so long since last I read the end screen in Minecraft, and I forgot what it said. hearing this is the best thing that could happen to me at this point. I have been suicidal for months now and hearing this positivity is really what helps. thank you. your channel is amazing. not only for me, but for many others. not only this video, but many others. God bless you
I have to say that Lena Rane did a great job with the new nether soundtrack
I don't like it tbh... it just... isn't Minecraft, now as much as I hate it when people say that something isn't Minecraft, I'll just have to bend the knee here...
@@dantelawrence4676 It feels like Minecraft to me. I get the same feeling of dread I feel when C418's nether soundtracks play.
As far as Pigstep goes... well, it just feels like Nether's versions Stal for me.
Just found this video, and its amazing dude. Also, every time I hear The End I get chills man
Also- man, that ending poem is so good
(And the music that plays through it)
Aria math is my favorite soundtrack, since it brings back memories of me flying around making huge builds.
This music is immortal. It represents the past present and the future.its a timeless masterpiece that will never be forgotten.
A mild criticism of minecraft's composition.
While it's existing soundtrack is near perfect, there's not enough of it to cover the whole game. There is no song that goes over those tense moments during combat where you're on half a heart running away from a dozen mobs. There is no spooky song that plays at night, which is supposed to be dangerous. There's not even a song for the ender dragon fight. When's the last time you fought the ender dragon? It's incredibly awkward. A little tense music would completely remedy this, but minecraft just falls flat on it's face. Have you been to the woodland mansion? It's very tense, and yet, no music. Raids? No music. Nether? There is music, a step in the right direction. Ocean monument? The chance of drowning is high and yet, no music. It's pathetic.
People regard minecraft's OST as incredible and untouchable. Like it's the perfect soundtrack. In my opinion, it's not. It just isn't. I, too feel reflective when I listen to "Sweden" or "Wet hands". But what does minecraft have to show for the tense moments? Nothing.
tl;dr, minecraft's music is good but it needs improvement. C'mon just add some ender dragon fight music and you're set.
Well there actually is a unique track that plays when you fight the ender dragon, but I get what you mean
@@Petrolpark yes your right I should've mentioned that track.
Buthow would that be possible?
It can’t sense that,
Not really
@@pillowmoment what do you mean?
Jodus MacGotuss well now there’s 3 specific underwater tracks
I've lost count of how many times I've watched this video. I keep coming back to it. Much like Minecraft and its music.
When I was younger I found the music quite eerie so I would often mute it or just turn the tv down (xbox 360 edition) so I couldnt hear it, now I listen to it in videos like this or when I occasionally play and I feel so nostalgic. It takes me back to a simplier time when I would play with my friends and we'd (attempt) to build cities and get as many diamonds as we could. I miss those simplier times and so Minecraft and its music is like a comfort now. It truly is such a great game.
I have only cried once while playing videogames in my whole life. It was when I finished portal 2 for the first time. Everything hit me at once, all the time, alone, surrounded by cold hard mechanical machinery. Always at the mercy of unfeeling AI and there testing. So many hours of nothingness. Nothing new, nothing eventful, nothing to love or be loved by, nothing... But by the end you finally do it. You can leave that horrid place forever. This video made me think about that because it was the music that tipped me over the edge and I would bet that it wouldn’t have the same effect if there wasn’t music. Thank you for what you have created.
The soundtrack of the End made me sweat. What a masterpiece. It is a so intense story/mystery.
Listening To The Minecraft's Music Is so Calming and Nostalgic at a Same Time.
Something this video helped me do was contextualize my relationship with Minecraft. I played all the time as a kid, and I associate many of the older tracks (like Minecraft and Sweden) with “the good old days” of watching Minecraft videos on RUclips from beta. Listening to them brings back memories of that time, of building a house entirely out of wool and glass in Creative because I thought that was the kind of house I would like. And when I stopped, that was the beginning of one of the darkest times in my life. I fell out with every friend I had. I had resigned myself to being insignificant, unwanted....
Alone.
When I came back to Minecraft, I was in a somewhat better place. The new songs welcomed me in, along with the nostalgic tracks bringing back nostalgia. I had new friends, a new reason to play the game, and more ideas beyond my younger self. Even though I haven’t played in a week and a half, I know I’ll come back.
And then, listening to this video, I had that revelation. I understood it. I was the universe. The universe meant something. I mean something. I don’t like it when people say “this video/creator was the only thing keeping me alive in this time period”, but I will say thy this video helped me change my worldview. Thank you.
