Other Products ｜Minecraft: Alpha + Beta Cassette Boxset

As C418, composer and producer Daniel Rosenfeld designs sounds to resonate in both physical and pixelated realms. Best known for his original soundtracks to Minecraft, the single best-selling video game (and now a major motion picture) of all time, he’s developed a discography of instrumental music over the last decade that traverses electronic pop patterns, neo-classical dreamscapes, and sparse ambient motifs. The latter element has broken from the “8-bit” pigeonholing of game music and earned him accolades that reference artists like Erik Satie and Brian Eno from places like Vice and The Guardian.In 2015, after quietly self-releasing Minecraft Volume Alpha and Minecraft Volume Beta, Rosenfeld partnered with Ghostly International to reissue Minecraft Volume Alpha on vinyl and CD. The release garnered attention from proper music critics and the gaming community alike, becoming one of the most sought-after records in the Ghostly catalog. Several color variant represses have since sold out quickly to high demand, even landing C418 at the top of Billboard's Emerging Artist chart. In 2020, the soundtrack’s second installment, Minecraft Volume Beta, saw its first physical release as a double LP and CD, and has similarly been repressed to fervent fan response.Now, both Minecraft Volume Alpha and Minecraft Volume Beta receive their first-ever cassette release. The tapes are available separately and bundled in a limited edition box set now up for pre-order. The colorway for Minecraft Volume Alpha is an opaque Green, and Minecraft Volume Beta is an Orange colorway when purchased individually and with a Red shell in the box set.
