C418 might need to bring his cat to the vet
-
let it sink in that C418 has probably made some of the most listened-to music ever, of all time
-
i played minecraft at my grandmother's in 2013. the music would play throughout her house for multiple hours every day. she still tells me almost 10 years later that it's one of her fondest memories of us at the house, and asked who the composer was because she liked it.
-
Man. He never made music before yet he has made tracks that I will never forget and always stir up intense nostalgia of my younger days and friends.
-
I honestly believe that Minecraft wouldn't be nearly as enjoyable without C418's music
-
The fact that an entire generation could recognize these songs instantly is just incredible.
-
When the song came on at 2:30 i got teary eyed... these are the moments that made Minecraft Minecraft! The nostalgic feelings, all that came from C418! Without this music, it would never be the same!
-
C418's music always felt melancholy, but in a good way. It brings back memories of playing with friends who have been offline for years. It's beautiful in its simplicity.
-
That man forged a entire community with his music. He will be remembered as the first and greatest music composer for Minecraft.
-
C418 did the right thing to keep the rights to his iconic music, and perfectly demonstrates the glaring issues in the intellectual property space and how badly its abused by megacorporate conglomerates.
-
Its unfortunate that c418 is not with Minecraft anymore. He's undisputably a genius, and I can confidently say that his music, is Minecraft. Nobody can do it like him.
-
His music has a magic to it. So many people from many paths of life have played minecraft and heard those songs, so they mean something different to everybody. For me, they're emotional because those melodies remind me of some of the best times of my life. I can't thank minecraft and C418 enough for that.

Microsoft doesn’t know that c418 is sitting on a legendary third album that could flip the internet upside down if it’s released.
-
I still listen just to the soundtracks he made to this day. And I love what he did. Minecraft would be different without C418.
-
Personally, I'm not a fan of the new soundtracks. But that could be due to the emotions that come to surface when I hear those classic MC soundtracks.. So bittersweet.
-
As long as C418’s music is still in the game I’m completely fine with it
-
Well guess what, C418 is getting to be a part of Billboard's music awards for Volume Alpha. I'm very happy to see that he finally gets an award for one of the greatest soundtracks of all time!
-
The MC music is so iconic... Wish we had more C418 music. Unfortunate we won't have more.
-
Whenever I hear a song from C418, I feel a weird emotion. I am not sad, not happy, not chill, not angry.. just.. nothing.. like pure nostalgia.
-
C418's Minecraft music is one of the few playlists where I can listen to it at anytime and it brings me back to a calm, and content state of being. It sounds good, it feels good, and makes for some lovely background ambience
