Music Disc

Mob loot

When a creeper is killed by a skeleton, wither skeleton, skeleton horse (via commands), stray, bogged, or parched, it drops a random music disc from the following pool:

Since wither skeletons do not use bows, they cannot attack creepers without using commands, and therefore are unable to cause a creeper to drop a music disc in normal gameplay. TNT ignited by a flaming arrow gives credit for all of the resulting kills to the entity that fired the arrow. Thus, when a skeleton ignites a TNT block by using a bow with the Flame enchantment, shooting through lava or fire, or being a wither skeleton, each creeper killed by the explosion drops a music disc. When killed by a player-deflected fireball, a ghast will always drop Tears. When a chicken jockey is killed, it will always drop Lava Chicken. However, the rider must be killed before the chicken.

Generated loot

Some music discs can be found by exploring various structures in the game. The disc 5 can be found only as disc fragments, requiring 9 fragments to craft the music disc.

Crafting

Music Disc 5 is the only disc that can be crafted.

Playing music

A music disc can be played on a jukebox by holding the disc and pressing the control on the jukebox, or by using a hopper or a dropper facing toward the jukebox. Pressing on the jukebox again ejects the disc and stops any music playing. Once it stops playing, the disc can also be retrieved by a hopper placed beneath the jukebox (a jukebox emits a redstone signal while the disc is playing, temporarily locking the hopper). The in-game music disc tracks are all recordings. Tracks released for listening outside of the game are in (though "Pigstep" has a mono version included in the Nether Update soundtrack EP).

Redstone signal

A jukebox playing music from a disc emits a level 15 signal, powering any adjacent redstone wires, redstone repeaters, and mechanism components. The signal turns off when the music track ends or if the disc is removed before the track ends. If the player places a comparator besides a jukebox, the intensity of the redstone signal depends on the disc currently inserted, with the following values. The comparator is powered as long as a disc is stored inside the jukebox, even if it has stopped playing.
