Description

The Music Disc "mall" is a vanilla Minecraft item that plays the C418 track "C418 - mall", a 3:17 (197-second) atmospheric, mellow, slightly melancholic tune. The Music Disc "mall" is not craftable: the main way to get the Music Disc "mall" is as a rare Creeper drop, which happens only when a skeleton kills a Creeper with an arrow, dropping one random overworld disc. To play the Music Disc "mall", you right-click it onto a Jukebox; the subtitle "C418 - mall" appears in the action bar and music-note particles rise from the Jukebox. The Music Disc "mall" has a max stack size of 1, so it never stacks. A Redstone Comparator reading a Jukebox that plays the Music Disc "mall" outputs a signal strength of 6, a value unique to this disc. Parrots near the Jukebox will dance, and a Hopper can insert or pull the Music Disc "mall" for automation. The Music Disc "mall" is available in both Java Edition and Bedrock Edition.

Guide

How to get and play the "mall" music disc in Minecraft

  1. 1

    Trigger a Creeper kill

    Lure a Creeper in front of a skeleton so the mob's arrow hits the Creeper; on death the Creeper drops one random overworld disc such as the Music Disc "mall".

  2. 2

    Pick up the disc

    Collect the dropped Music Disc "mall" before it despawns; it cannot be crafted or found in chests, so the skeleton-versus-Creeper method is the reliable source.

  3. 3

    Place a Jukebox

    Place a Jukebox where you want the music, then right-click the Music Disc "mall" onto it; the subtitle "C418 - mall" appears and note particles rise for the full 3:17 track.

  4. 4

    Read it with a Comparator

    Put a Redstone Comparator against the Jukebox to read the Music Disc "mall" as a signal strength of 6, useful for disc-detecting redstone contraptions.

Automation tip

A Hopper can feed the Music Disc "mall" into a Jukebox and pull it back out, letting you build automatic disc players or jukebox swappers.
