Description

Music Disc — wait is a collectible Minecraft record composed by C418 that plays an upbeat electronic track when inserted into a jukebox. The disc cannot be crafted. In survival mode, wait comes only from the music-disc drop when a skeleton or stray kills a creeper — one of 12 possible discs. Bedrock Edition previously generated wait in buried treasure chests, but that loot was removed in version 1.21.130. The item is reusable: removing the disc after playback returns it to the player without consuming it.

Music Disc — wait is useful for music collections, jukebox rooms, adventure-map rewards, and redstone selectors. A jukebox emits a comparator signal whose strength depends on the inserted record; wait produces signal strength 12. The track lasts about 3 minutes 58 seconds, so wait suits energetic bases and minigame lobbies better than Minecraft's quieter ambient records.
