Spatial music for Minecraft

Make the world sound alive.

Place a radio, choose a track, and nearby players will hear it from that location. Vanilla players use the server resource pack. Players with the optional mod also get exact seeking, pause, and resume controls.

How playback works

The server keeps one playback state for each radio. It sends normal Minecraft sounds to vanilla players and timestamped audio commands to players using the mod.

Vanilla listeners

Receive a generated Minecraft resource pack and hear native positional sounds without installing anything locally.

Players with the mod

The optional Fabric client can join at the current timestamp and supports seeking, pause, and resume.

Physical radios

Place textured radio heads, define hearing distance, protect ownership, show holograms, and control playback through native dialogs.

Server settings

Tiers control permissions, recipes, range, holograms, particles, protection, and the available tracks.
