This is C418

Now that I seem to have your attention, I think I might introduce me yet again. Hi. My Artist name is C418. If you want to know more, check the minecraft credits.

I’m responsible for old and future Minecraft music. I’m also a musician specialized in electronic ambient drum and bass fucktard weird shit. And I need a new blog. Also I hate talking. Let’s show you music.

If you believe it or not, this song let Notch decide he should have music in minecraft and that I should be doing it. This song is quite old. 3 or 4 years old.

This is an unused song for minecraft classic. I thought you’d like to know. Nothing special.

And now to cocktease…

A bit of a song for a future album!

Thats all for today. If you want to listen to more music, click music, right up there. Some songs are not working. I’m a lazy buttocks.

…you probably are asking yourself

“where the heck are these minecraft songs?”

Not here. You see, I’m putting quite some work into this Minecraft project, and want to give you high quality songs when I’m finished with it. Yeah.

and you killed that one song I hosted, so I won’t host it anymore until it’s in an OST or something.

And hello again.

Some people want to know what I’m doing on Minecraft now, but I seriously can’t tell you anything but making music. How much? I can’t tell. What kind of? Nope.

I had a few discussions with Notch depending how the music should react to the game and we got a very cool conclusion that probably will be implemented in beta or even earlier.

That’s all I tell you now.

I will be starting working on Minecraft as much as I can on friday evening for one week straight. Promise!

I think I will ignore most of the criticism I received for the music I did. But I guess I will think about some ideas people brought up. The biggest problem everyone seems to have are the pauses between songs. They were never intended to be so empty and sound-free as we originally wanted to have some ambient noise like natural forest sounds. We probably eventually will, but now there is nothing but footsteps. I think after next week, the sound will procedurally change from time to time, as I will invest as much time as I can into Minecraft. I will listen to the biggest problems people have, but there are too many individual issues here and there, so I will most certainly not please every single person on earth. I can live with that though.

Okay now, what will the music sound like?

Probably similar.

Probably less slow.

Probably with more rhythm.

Probably a tad less depressing.

Probably looped.

Probably fitting to current themes. Hell?

Probably only with Notch’s approval before I put stuff online.

Probably will take a while. Before I release anything and show anything to anyone, I want the music to sound good. I personally want to feel it is right to release what I do. So I think I will take my time.
