Let's talk about the new Music Features Add-On Pack!

Pinned

 

The latest Bedrock Preview introduces the new music features add-on pack!
 
This release includes new blocks and items to try out, including the disc press, pocket jukebox, blank disc, and track disc, along with online music.
We’re experimenting with lots of new music features right now, and there’s more still to come in future previews. Give them a try and let us know what you think in the comments!
  • Did you run into any performance issues when playing track discs in the pocket jukebox or jukebox?
  • What do you think of the new blocks and items?
Your feedback helps us understand what’s working well and where we can make things even better.

    It's good but I don't have every Minecraft musics

    I only have Beginning 2 (C418), Ebb (fingerspit), Floating Trees (C418), Home (fingerspit), Memories (fingerspit), Moog City 2 (C418), Mutation (C418), Nightly (fingerspit) and Shores (fingerspit), I think it better if we have every Minecraft musics, like "Minecraft - Volume Alpha" and "Minecraft - Volume Beta"'s musics, and other Minecraft musics, and I want this addon on vanilla Minecraft without addon and on Minecraft Java Edition

    Does anyone else think it's hilarious that Mojang is pinning their own submissions?

    This method of content delivery feels very fence-sit-y. Either add the feature to vanilla or don't. I sincerely hope this does not become a method for delivering vanilla game content in the future. We already have experiments for this exact purpose. Or, is this a way to incentivize purchases for the addon store? Now specific vanilla game content is meant to "hook into" store purchases? This is setting a very, very ugly precedent.

    This feels wrong. The block model is ugly and doesn't fit the style

    Only proper complaint is the disc press model is complicated and doesn't feel much like vanilla, other than that it's mostly fine

    The recipes requiring and consuming blank discs is a little strange i guess, maybe blank disc sprite is a little too simple, but those are minor

    Art-wise the disc press looks pretty ugly and out of place, especially the copper disc. This being a built-in add-on is just odd. Either add it fully to vanilla (it would be an appreciated addition regardless of the marketplace integration), or make it a regular marketplace add-on.

    I think vanilla content being arbitrarily locked behind a built-in add-on can set a bad precedent. I seriously hope this doesn't degenerate into having gameplay features locked behind paywalled built-in add-ons...

    This would go so well in vanilla Minecraft! We need the creative mode music to be avaliable (like Taswell), maybe a different design for the disc press block, these features on Java Edition too, and perhaps a different recipe for the blank discs, like switching out the glass panes for flint. Other than that, it looks great!

    Please just make this a part of the vanilla game.  These features are wonderful and will really make players excited for this new drop if they are released as vanilla features.  Why limit use of something that obviously had a lot of thought and energy invested into it?

    I think this is a good start! Using glass panes for blank discs feels odd. I think honeycomb or "soft" metals like gold and copper make more sense for the base. I also find the current block model for the disc press seems a bit too detailed. Hoping to see this in Java and support more songs!

    Just give it to us in Java Edition?? If this is a new way of showing off stuff before adding it to the base game its a horrible way of showing it off. Just put it into vanilla because a lot of people would want stuff like this in the main game.

    I personally would love this on Java, but before that happens there are some very good questions to ask. For one, what kind of songs could be pressed? The disc press uses marketplace songs, and java doesnt have a marketplace, so would there be some sort of connection between the two? The next is what if I want custom songs? Looking at Hermitcraft, Xisuma has been making a ton of custom songs, would I be able to get those, and if so does that mean I could get any song? Well then what are the restrictions, because its not just they can only be played in the portable jukebox, which restrict the songs to you, they can also be played in a jukebox for everyone, so how can you stop some weird song from being played. I honestly think if Mojang wants to bring this to Java there has to be a lot of thought put into it on what is allowed and not allowed for this to fully work for both the player and Mojang.

    the new music disc (in this drop known as records) addon is great! i was playing around with it in minecraft preview and the pocked record player is a GREAT addition to the game, though, a few things i may ask is if you could add the official minecraft albums including:

    Minecraft: Volume Alpha,

    Minecraft: Volume Beta,

    and uhh more minecraft albums.

    also, mojang, or the team that reads this and reports it to mojang, please do not make paywalls for built in addons, add this into vanilla or make it a marketplace addon. the texture for the disc press is kind of ugly, i know thats how almost all of the textures in the texture update snapshots were, but PLEASE make the texture better, also unrelated sidenote, can you guys make block hitboxes (like where you can place cushions in), like java's? its kind of hard to make cushion art with less advanced hitboxes.

    With a block model change, this feels like it could, and SHOULD be a vanilla feature. If not in the current drop, then in a later, smaller drop. It has too much utility to be an addon.

    Blank discs should be crafted using resin!

    The Disc Press does not look like a block that fits in vanilla at all.  Why are there voxels attempting to make a circle?  Why is the circle so big to begin with?  It looks like a programmer art piece if it was a block.

    Would have much rathered this be a vanilla feature that let you record noteblock chains and press them onto a disc with a connected redstone signal.  Now renewable music discs is tied to a bedrock addon and wont ever become a vanilla feature.

    I think it's really good optional idea for who want to deep into their favorite Minecraft soundtracks while playing the game instead of waiting for their favorites play randomly and automatically in the background.

    Music discs IRL are not made of glass, they're made from a plastic created from salt and oil.  And the closest thing to this kind of material in minecraft is resin

    This is such a good idea (the discs not the inbuilt add-on), I have a few complaints. The block model doesnt feel like it belongs in the game currently. The pocket jukebox feels clunky and confusing to use. Why cant it have a ui to input discs and to select shuffle or skip? Hopefully we could import custom mp3 files to use in this feature. Also also, why not let us have the ability to either a. duplicate pre-existing discs like we can with maps and blank maps. or b. Craft discs like say a piglin head + a blank disc in the press makes a pigstep disc? Finally, can we get this in java please.

    I think the Disc Press’s model could be improved to make it better fit the game’s style.

    Other than that I have no real feedback on the addon, other than this stuff being designed for a built-in addon everyone gets automatically instead of for vanilla feels really weird. It’s also disappointing Java presumably won’t get it, even if Java players can just use an already-existing mod with something similar to the disc press (not sure if there’s one for a pocket jukebox-like item, but it wouldn’t surprise me). However, I understand it if Mojang wishes for music discs to remain special drops/treasure items, and if this addon is purely just for easy access to Marketplace stuff.

    I can't use it
    I only have Minecraft on the Switch, and since it did not update yet, it was not installed onto my switch

    Don't like the model of the press as many others don't. But all in all I would love this feature, is the intention on Bedrock to sell songs to people, yeah, not a fan of that, however, I DO like the functionality it DOES come with. Hope this comes to Java, double points if it uses the new jukebox tech so that players (who have PERMISSIONS) can apply audio tracks to disks and send it to the server to play. Maybe make it where it has a relatively small (configurable) max size limit for sending audio files to servers.

    This is such a good feature it should defiantly come to vanilla base game. Also please put all of C418's Minecraft music on the disk press

    I love this add-on. It's perfect, and I wish it would come to Java.

    If this is a way to test features separate from drops and big updates, I think this would set a great precedent which additions to the game could be faster.

    So instead of just relying on snapshots/previews to test features, you could also introduce official made mods/addons and mods integrated into the community like create into the base game. And make said mod a part of the vanilla base game after hearing the communities’ opinions on the features the mod adds.

    Faster and better development in the long run

    In my opinion, this is just bad. If you want to make it good, then remove the feature from Bedrock that implies that the player is "cheating" by using a damn resourcepack even if the only thing it does is just make the game look prettier or anything else!!! And please... Do NOT port this feature to Java! And if you really want to add it, then keep it as an optional datapack, please.
