Every Music Disc and Where to Find It

Quick answer

• There are 22 music discs.
• Most drop when a skeleton kills a creeper.
• The rest come from dungeons, ancient cities, bastions, trail ruins and trial chambers.

Collecting every music disc is a great long-term goal. Some are easy, and some need you to visit the most dangerous places in the game.

The creeper trick

When a creeper is killed by a skeleton, stray, bogged or parched, it drops one of 12 discs: 13, cat, blocks, chirp, far, mall, mellohi, stal, strad, ward, 11 and wait.

The rare ones

Disc	Where
otherside	Dungeon, stronghold and ancient city chests
5	Craft from 9 disc fragments found in ancient cities
Pigstep	Bastion remnant chests
Relic	Brushing trail ruins
Precipice	Trial chamber vaults
Creator	Ominous vaults
Creator (Music Box)	Decorated pots in trial chambers
Tears	A ghast killed by its own fireball
Lava Chicken	A chicken jockey, if the zombie dies before the chicken
Bounce	Chest minecarts in sulfur cave mineshafts

The 13 and cat discs can also turn up in dungeon and ancient city chests.

Redstone trick

A comparator next to a jukebox gives a different signal strength for each disc, from 1 for 13 up to 15 for disc 5. Use it to build a disc-powered door or a sorter.
