Fox Nap
by OpenBagTwo
Fox Nap adds custom music discs and musical instruments to Minecraft, so players can supply their own tracks and play them on a shared server.
What it does
Players place their own music files into a folder and run a bundled generator, which turns the tracks into disc textures and records. Each song is converted to Ogg and given a disc, and metadata such as title, artist and album art is read automatically when present. Custom discs can be obtained in survival through the usual vanilla routes, and the mod comes with seven pre-bundled discs.
Because the mod is client and server, the server and every player need it installed. A server's datapacks and config file decide which discs and instruments are available there, while each player's resource pack and config file control their own setup. Players on the same server can therefore hear different music, and a server can stage live performances with the instruments. The generator can be run from the command line for additional settings such as directories, and the track count is limited, with source files needing to be decodable by ffmpeg. Fox Nap requires Fabric API and is published for Fabric and Quilt.
Key features
Custom music discs
Any music file placed in the generator folder can become a playable disc, with the generator building the resource pack.
Automatic metadata
Title, artist and album art stored in a music file are read and used for the disc, when that metadata is present.
Custom instruments
Musical instruments play like goat horns and let players perform music, adding creative options beyond discs.
Server-controlled content
A server's datapacks and config file determine which discs are offered, so the music available differs by server.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Players who want their own music in the game, and server owners who want a custom soundtrack for survival or multiplayer worlds. Players who want a record-only setup may find the generator steps more involved than a plain resource pack.
