The Minecraft Dungeons 4xLP The hills are alive with lo-fi sound!
The music it is a wonder. Perhaps the greatest invention of humanity, with the power to lift spirits, soothe souls, and set the mood for just about anything. It is a universal language that everyone understands and that can work miracles. Except get rid of my earworms. I can’t get the catchy new song from Villager News.
If, like me, you have a hard time crossing a certain threshold but want to stay within the genre of wonderful music from Minecraft, aim lower. No, not in quality: in fidelity! In collaboration with the creative geniuses of iam8bita lo-fi sensation is born: the Minecraft Dungeons 4xLP!
The Minecraft Dungeons 4xLP is a collection of amazing songs, presented in purple and orange Nether vinyl in an elegant case. And what is more important, the songs pressed on these discs not only include a selection of the most memorable songs from minecraft dungeon and its numerous DLC and seasonal events, but also completely new remixes, in which the musicians participate Eevee, The Deli, WunTwo, Esbe, okhoy ptr.
Now, we are sure that many of you are asking the question: What is love? But also: Why lo-fi?
«It all started when the audio director Samuel Åberg and I was foolish enough to launch our version of the genre. But also, without irony, we like this kind of music, so it’s both tongue-in-cheek and a serious attempt to remake tracks from minecraft dungeon in that context”.
“I wanted the LP to have a balance between tracks that people have heard a lot of, and at the same time to encapsulate the last few years of hard work, with some added fun in terms of remixes.”
“We started thinking: ‘Why don’t we expand the vinyl to include the soundtrack in general? After all, it’s commonplace these days to put out “collector’s editions” and it seemed like a solid idea to have both the remixes and the original soundtrack on vinyl.”
Peter Hont, Minecraft composer.
As a test, Peter created a concept track, a kind of pilot that went through the colleagues of Mojang Studios to know your interest. He was enthusiastically received, and soon the project grew into a collection.
In total, the album contains 31 original songs and 11 remixesmany of them composed by himself Peter. And after more than two years of dungeons, DLC and seasonal adventures, there’s sure to be a favorite out there.
The first thing that comes to mind is, of course, ‘Dalarna’, since I feel that I connected with people through it, which is one of my goals when I write music. Second, I think ‘Tempest Golem’ It’s funny as I had originally planned it to be a normal arena battle song, but I felt it was better than the boss track I had originally planned to use.
So, a couple of days before the deadline, I changed them in the hope that people would be of the same opinion. And it seems so, judging by the reaction of the players. By last, ‘Broken Heart of Ender’ It was fun, as the melody is a randomly generated sequence based on the camp theme song and other songs on the soundtrack.”
Peter Hont, Minecraft composer.
While song titles like “Tempest Golem” Y “Broken Heart of Ender” are easy to relate to certain places or mobs in the gamenames like Halland either «Dalarna» they are more difficult to decipher. Luckily, Peter tells us why there are songs with this nomenclature.
“So much Halland What Dalarna are specific places Sweden. Sweden» is also one of the most influential songs, if not the most influential, of Minecraft. What better name to choose for our attempt to extend that aesthetic in Minecraft Dungeons than two provinces in Sweden?
To be honest, Halland it was so called because it did not contain Swedish letters like Å, Ä or Ö. But in the case of «Dalarna», I wanted to sneak in my inheritance in the sense that half of my lineage is from there. The song «Finnbacka» It’s also named after a town in my family, as I felt the forest on the main menu reminded me of the woods in Finnbacka.”
The Minecraft Dungeons 4xLP it is scheduled to go on sale in the second quarter of 2023, and is currently available to pre-order at iam8bit. It may have started as a silly test, but with the result in hand, Peter He doesn’t seem to regret starting what could in time become a musical tradition of Minecraft.
“I wanted the LP to have a balance between the tracks that people have heard a lot and, at the same time, to sum up the last few years of hard work, with some added fun in terms of remixes.
And I wanted the remixes to be songs that people were more likely to recognize, so they could appreciate the artists’ interpretation of them, as well as see the connection between each artist’s style and the songs they remix. I’m really happy with how it turned out and I want to sincerely thank the artists for their hard work and amazing performances.”
