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.
"Key" is composed of a quiet, distant, sparse melody played on an echoing piano.
The album version of "Key" continues with a single, more heavily echoed note, leading directly to be paired with "Door", a bright remix of "Minecraft" played with multiple instruments.
