Long, sad story short, Microsoft bought Minecraft while C418 was working on a third set of songs for the game. But Microsoft wouldn’t honor his existing contract with Mojang (C418 retains ownership of all of his music). So Microsoft hired a bunch of other artists to make new music (all really good, but not C418). Due to legal issues, C418 cannot release the new music he wrote for Minecraft in any capacity without losing ownership of it. So it all remains unreleased to this day.
Apparently, a few of the tracks slated for “Volume Final” were already in Minecraft’s Aquatic Update. So part of the albums has been heard by the public. The rest remains vaulted. But it looks like C418 is looking to release the music in the future anyways. That 15-minute ambience track sounds amazing.
Fantastic set of tracks for chilling or doing some work. There are a couple of odd tracks but most are fantastic, they often hit me wirh a nice vibe of nostalgia.
Didn't know there was a vinyl though, now I'm curious what it is like, as the originals were digital music.
Both Alpha and Beta are hauntingly beautiful. Perfect soundtracks for vinyl.
I hope C418 gets permission to release the long-completed 3rd volume.
There's a volume Gamma? 👀

Nobody's heard it besides him? It's not even on piracy sites?

What's the model of this gramophone?
Looks like the LP60XBT from the bluetooth button on the left side

That's the one!
A really great ambient album, a perfect match to the game and immersive as hell. I have it on my wishlist, too!
