As C418, composer and producer Daniel Rosenfeld designs sounds that echo in both physical and pixelated worlds. He is best known for his original soundtracks to Minecraft, the best-selling video game of all time. Over the past decade, he has developed a discography of instrumental music that moves between electronic pop patterns, neoclassical dreamscapes, and sparse ambient motifs.

The latter element has broken away from the "8-bit" pigeonhole of game music, earning him accolades that reference artists like Erik Satie (The Guardian) and Brian Eno (VICE). After quietly self-releasing Minecraft Volume Alpha and Minecraft Volume Beta in 2015, Rosenfeld teamed up with Ghostly International to reissue Minecraft Volume Alpha on vinyl and CD. The release caught the attention of music critics and the gaming community alike, and became one of the most sought-after records in Ghostly's catalog. After several reissues of Alpha that were enthusiastically received by fans, it is now time to release the second part of the soundtrack. For the legion of listeners and players who finally have Minecraft Volume Beta in tangible formats. Originally self-released in 2013, Minecraft Volume Beta was C418's longest music collection to date at nearly 140 minutes. 

The collection includes tracks that were "quietly" added during Minecraft's music updates, as well as some that were never officially included in the game. Rosenfeld's skills are unmistakable; he creates a wide-ranging variety of musical ideas that reflect Minecraft's boundless universe. Ghostly International is thrilled to give this unique collaboration the attention it deserves, and hopes that the creative inspiration that drives Minecraft and Rosenfeld will continue to spread through this unexpectedly universal music
