“Biome Fest” is a song that I created when Minecraft Alpha was done, but I felt it had no place anywhere in the game, until the creative mode was sort of reintroduced to the game. It’s one of my favourite songs I’ve ever created. I do love minimalism and achieving tones with just very few notes, and I think this song does that extremely well.
"Biome Fest" is a song composed by C418 that plays when the player is in Creative mode.

Track description
Previews of tracks in Minecraft have been shortened to 30 seconds on this wiki in accordance with fair use rationale. "11" and "Magnetic Circuit" are exempt from this.
"Biome Fest" begins with a dreamlike choir of synthesized voices fading in, which makes way to an electronic song with bells and tribal percussion in the background. It ends with the same choir that it begins with, fading out.
