New Music Disc
by Neoz30
New Music Disc adds eight music discs to the game, each carrying a track made by Minecraft fans, for players who want new songs to play.
What it does
Each of the eight discs plays a song credited to its author, and the disc's name and creator appear on the item. The songs were created by Minecraft fans from YouTube, including tracks by Nameless Guy and Bling Bling Cheese, and the mod lists the author name for every disc in the game.
Because the discs are regular items, they can be placed in jukeboxes and played like the vanilla records. The mod runs on the Fabric loader with the client and server both needing it, and the code is open source under the MIT License. A single build exists for 1.20.4, released on 2024-03-02 as version 1.1.
Key features
Eight new discs

Fan-made tracks
Each song was created by a Minecraft fan and published on YouTube before it was added to the discs.
Named authors
Every disc shows the name of the creator of its track, so players can see who made the music they hear.
Jukebox playback
The discs play from a jukebox like the standard records, letting players build listening setups in their bases.
