Mojang releases 3 'Soothing Minecraft' soundscapes

Need a bit of background noise for your upcoming holiday party or Christmas day itself? Mojang has come up with 3 unique Minecraft-related soundscapes that they think will help set the mood for your gatherings, and you can stream all of them for free starting today.

In the first soundscape, sink into the lulling calm of a lush cave, the perfect ambient backdrop for this holiday season. The snow fox wants to sleep, wants to curl up and dream, and it knows this will be a nice, warm place to rest. It can hear the happy gurgle of water, the gentle squeak of bats as it steps inside, white paws padding from dirt blocks to stone, and then onto the soft, pillowy blocks of moss.

In the second soundscape, settle into to this soothing snow scene, the perfect ambient backdrop for this holiday season. As snow drifts softly down from a grey Overworld sky, and the sun climbs slowly above the horizon, a snow fox slumbers.

In the final soundscape, relax to this dreamy desert scene, the perfect ambient backdrop for this holiday season. The snow fox is a long way from home, and yet it feels happy as it watches the sunset spill slowly over the horizon. Its friend the camel flops onto the warm sand and curls its long legs beneath it, its ears flapping happily.
