In Minecraft players can find music discs located around the world. These discs can be inserted into a jukebox in the game to hear music.

Jukeboxes are the only way that players will be able to play music discs in Minecraft. These boxes are crafted using eight wooden planks and one diamond ore. Players can break these boxes using any tool, however an ax will break it the fastest.

There are 13 different music discs in Minecraft and each one can only be found in specific areas. Most of them can be found inside Minecraft dungeons.

These discs can only be played once before requiring prompt ejection and reinsertion. In Minecraft, all of these discs will emit different tunes when being inserted inside the jukebox.

In this article, players will learn about all 13 music discs. These are ranked in order from best to worst!
