ONLY THE SECOND. What a crime

kobayashimaruu.bsky.social•75 days ago

some good news yay (I am withering away to dust but now with a small grin for C418)

royalweirdo.bsky.social•75 days ago

You know what.... Valid.

smellslikebuter.bsky.social•75 days ago

Well deserved.

norz.bsky.social•75 days ago

It's the whole album, and if there was a definitive minecraft theme I don't think it's the song you posted. Should probably check your facts.

What would you consider the Minecraft Theme?

norz.bsky.social•74 days ago

If I had to guess officially, probably the song titled "Minecraft" but from what I know, some would argue "Sweeden"

onefordyboi.bsky.social•74 days ago

I didn't even know there was a song titled Minecraft but googling it, I know the one now. And Sweden is a good choice too.

venomspino.bsky.social•75 days ago

Just for clarification, it's not just one song. It's the whole Alpha Album. So Sweden, Minecraft, Moog City, Dray and Wet hands, Mice on Venus, and Haggstrom are there. Not just Subwoofer Lullaby (though unfortunately, only Cat amd Thirteen are the only music disc there currently.)

Is the first Mario?

loisel.bsky.social•75 days ago

Yes

axelmelodiasvoss.bsky.social•74 days ago

Minecraft gets the whole album while Mario just got the one song? What gives?

schwarzgeistz.bsky.social•75 days ago

This whole soundtrack will always resonate with me mostly the alpha soundtrack to this day. If I ever have a bad day, I just play this OST to clear my mind even for a moment.

melorathefox.bsky.social•75 days ago

What was the first?

amazingandroid.bsky.social•75 days ago

What was the first video game song added?

smashmatt202.bsky.social•75 days ago

Always cool to see video game stuff added to the Library of Congress!

scarclan.bsky.social•75 days ago

Now that is based

kasperfc.bsky.social•75 days ago

It deserves to be there! 🤩

blvtfvx.bsky.social•75 days ago

so what? what does that do or matter?

negativeten.bsky.social•75 days ago

c418 w?

a2smind.bsky.social•75 days ago

Why only 2? The fairy foundation theme from Zelda is instantly recognizable.
Sonic, too.

jacob-hc.bsky.social•75 days ago

I feel like finally we’ve reached a point where video games are being taken seriously for their cultural impact. Go back less than two decades—and video games would be kind of looked down upon by the general adult population

natecraven318.bsky.social•75 days ago

Because the late 1990s into the early to mid 2000s was that time in history when parents were coming out in droves to say that video games were ruining society by causing apathy at best and violence at worst.

natecraven318.bsky.social•75 days ago

Video games are always going to be in the manufactured enemy when parents need a quick and easy answer for why their kids being assholes isn't their fault.

brinnyxtreme.bsky.social•75 days ago

It's insane to me that the registry picks singles rather than albums to archive. Like, they have a new hope, but they got the whole thing? This feels like if they just took the scene of luke looking out on the twin moons, rather than the full feature. Why not just put the album in there I wonder?

brinnyxtreme.bsky.social•75 days ago

Twin suns!!!! My bad! Long morning for me, what a mistake to make. I've seen the film over 100 times i swear, just a brain fart lol

zachfuture.bsky.social•73 days ago

What was the first one again?

mark6o9.sheath.church•72 days ago

I hope C418 is happy

bamboolad.bsky.social•75 days ago

minecraft is cemented in history baby

josephwesker.bsky.social•75 days ago

...........

citizenofnightcity.bsky.social•75 days ago

Does anyone remember the calm 1 minecraft song?

realjaclynspace.bsky.social•75 days ago

It will likely be removed soon due to a prominent music composer for mojang is a trans furry, so the Minecraft theme will be removed by association to “woke undesirables”

g-stanczak.bsky.social•75 days ago

What was the first?

antitoxinzero.bsky.social•75 days ago

The Super Mario Bros theme iirc
