Lena Raine, the composer of Celeste, composed 4 new tracks (Rubedo, So Below, Chrysopoeia, and Pigstep) for Minecraft. I think it should be stated in the article that she did this. MarioFan129 ( talk) 12:08, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
there are brand new soundtracks for the game Minecraft Dungeons, should they be added even though it's not Minecraft? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Minemaster1337 ( talk • contribs) 18:05, June 24, 2021 (UTC)

Should the recent additions of Gareth Coker's music be kept? I say no because they are Bedrock maps, unrelated from the game. It could also be argued WP:NOTDIRECTORY for listing everything. SWinxy ( talk) 02:52, 23 April 2022 (UTC)
@ SapphirosGLR: Wikipedia discourages an unnecessary amount of non-free images to illustrate the article's topic. The rationale for each image, although properly filled in, does not indicate that it meets the requirements. Individual cover art is minimal use if that was the subject of the article. But since you're trying to justify multiple non-free images for a single article, there's going to be discernment. The article uses 11 non-free images which is unheard of for any quality article. For examples of quality music articles that reduce the number of non-free content, you can see Music of Kingdom Hearts, Music of the Final Fantasy VII series, Music of the Drakengard series.

Is the 2017 quote about the terrible sound engine still relevant given that Minecraft revamped its sound engine in 1.18? User1042 ( talk) 13:16, 12 May 2022 (UTC)
Both albums meet the criteria for WP:NALBUM. Multiple non-trivial sources have covered it, and they have both charted in the US. Thoughts? SWinxy ( talk) 19:40, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
I hate to make this kind of proposal, but I'm not sure of Volume Beta meets WP:NALBUM and WP:GNG on its own. The fact Beta gets far less attention than Volume Alpha is pretty common knowledge for those with knowledge on the games soundtrack, and this stretches to the coverage of it as well. The only significant coverage I'm able to find of this album is review from Original Sound Version, while Digital Trends isn't really WP:SIGCOV and HS Insider may not be reliable per this discussion. Compare this with what Volume Alpha had (3 graded reviews, some academic sourcing, another sorta review, and interviews), and its apparent this one has extremely weak sourcing. And when I was going through all of the sourcing for Alpha, I tried to find some for Beta as well, and came back with nothing. All that Beta has going for it is that one review and when it charted a few times, but even then it charted way less than Alpha. So, as much as I don't want to say it, I don't think Volume Beta is independently notable and I think that it should be merged into Music of Minecraft. Would love to be proven wrong, though. λ Negative MP1 20:28, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
