I love Minecraft. It's the rare kind of game where you can literally spend hours accomplishing nothing and yet still feel like you're having a good time. However this post isn't about how great the game is, it's about how great the music is. The many long hours I spent exploring/building all over the vast overworld are what led me to notice the beautifully composed soundtrack, by German artist C418. The music is very relaxing while at the same time intriguing, most of the tracks start out soft (with an emphasis on piano) but other sounds are mixed in for mysterious effect. The two I've linked to above are my favorites so far, Subwoofer Lullaby and Wet Hands, respectively.
In all the artist did a great job of creating an atmosphere of wonder for the game. The official soundtrack, dubbed Minecraft - Volume Alpha is available for purchase, but more importantly it is available for free on Spotify! I made this discovery recently and have been listening to the album while I do my homework; I find that it makes great background music to work to. Now if only I had more time for Minecraft and less time for homework! If only. ;)
