“Blind Spots” is the first song I wrote with the clear intention of having a unique soundtrack for Minecraft’s “creative mode”. I tried to create a piece that doesn’t particularly change much, but keeps reiterating on itself, like a constant remixing of its core theme. As the piece ends, it becomes very melancholic and solemn, but quickly returns to being positive. Things end, but that’s not bad.

Track description Edit

Previews of tracks in Minecraft have been shortened to 30 seconds on this wiki in accordance with fair use rationale. "11" and "calm4.ogg" are exempt from this.

"Blind Spots" starts off primarily featuring a major seven chord, and later introduces darker minor chords. The entire track is a piano song dominated by a repeated quarter note rhythm. The piano, which has an echo effect on it, plays a bright melody before it is joined by a synth orchestra, with some quiet synth percussion.

At some points, there are chiptune-style synthesizers playing chords that support the main melody, and at other points, there is a distorted bell or chime sound (possibly a kalimba) that plays arpeggiated chords. There is also a synth bass that plays arpeggiated chords throughout.
