Track description

[edit | edit source]
Previews of tracks in Minecraft have been shortened to 30 seconds on this wiki in accordance with fair use rationale. "11" and "Magnetic Circuit" are exempt from this.

The track consists of a plodding, rhythmic piano phrase which is expanded and iterated upon over the course of the song through additional piano notes, but never strays from initially-outlined melody. Faint string chords begin around the 2:00 mark and increase in volume until the 3:00 mark, where they fade out. The underlying chord progression from the beginning of the song then comes into focus until the end of the piece.
