Music Player Mod
by Ansh_Sharma
Music Player Mod lets players in Minecraft play their own custom songs through a simple in-game player window, reading files placed in a songs folder.
What it does
Songs are added by placing files in the songs folder, and the Add Song button opens that folder directly from the in-game interface. Custom .ogg files are played, and the songs can be reloaded without restarting Minecraft, so new tracks show up while the game is running.
The mod is built for Fabric and targets only the 1.21.11 game version, with the latest file v0.1-alpha published on 2026-03-18. It is client-side only, so only the player needs it and a server can run without it. No required dependency is listed for Fabric.
The author describes it as a lightweight early alpha. Bugs are known to exist, and the author asks for bug reports and suggestions. Planned future updates include MP3 direct support, a volume slider, a loop button, a playlist system, a random song button and performance improvements.
Key features
In-game music player
A simple player window lets the user start, pause and choose custom songs without leaving the game.
Custom song files
Own .ogg tracks are played from the songs folder, so the music is not limited to built-in sound sets.
Add Song button
The interface has a button that opens the songs folder, making it easier to place new files.
Reload without restart
Songs can be reloaded while the game is open, so newly added tracks are available right away.

How it compares
Mace Music+ is client-side only, runs on Fabric for 1.21.10 – 1.21.11, and is released under the MIT License, so it is not open source. Plaify is also client-side only, covers 1.21.4 – 1.21.5 on Fabric and is under the MIT License. My Music is client-side only on Fabric for 26.1 and carries the MIT License. Music Player Mod differs from these by covering only 1.21.11 and by being released under All rights reserved. Shiloh's songs is the one open source option here, under the Mozilla Public License 2.0, but it targets 1.21.1 only.
