Ancient Aether - Boss Music Addon

by TheExiIedFeIIow

Ancient Aether - Boss Music Addon gives the Aechor Plant boss its own track, drawn from the Aether II mini-boss theme, and it needs Ancient Aether to run.

What it does

Installed on a server, the addon plays a dedicated boss track when the Aechor Plant fight begins. It is server-side only, so players join without installing anything and the music is heard through their own sound settings. The mod requires Ancient Aether, and the author notes that it was inspired by a video and that the plans include extending the same treatment to other Aether bosses, which other music mods have not covered.

The addon is published for Forge and NeoForge on 1.20.1 and 1.20.4 and is released under the MIT License, though its code is not open source. Files for 1.20.4 were first published on 2026-02-06, and the 1.0.0 release is the latest build for both loaders. Server owners who want to adjust the volume can use the Music and Sounds slider in the Options menu, and the mod can be uninstalled cleanly by running the admin uninstall function before removing it.

Key features

  1. Aechor Plant theme

    The Aechor Plant fight uses a boss track built on the Aether II mini-boss theme.

  2. Theme toggle command

    A command toggles whether the boss theme plays, so server owners can switch it off without removing the mod.

  3. Volume control

    Music volume is set with the Jukebox and Note Blocks slider in the Options menu under Music and Sounds.

  4. Clean uninstall

    An admin uninstall function removes the mod's data, and it should be run before the mod is removed.

What the author says

Given all other known Aether bosses out there have been assigned their own battle tracks, I figured why not drag the only outlier to this trend into the club? There are also plans for this mod's compatibility to extend to any other Aether bosses that lack their own music, to which the mod will likely be rebranded as…
