Minecraft Fan Makes Contraption That Plays the Theme Tune to San Andreas

The longevity of Minecraft will go down in the annals of gaming history, with its near-infinite replay value and sprawling landscape that just screams potential. Despite its age, with it initially coming out in 2009, Minecraft is still one of the most played video games of 2022, and for very good reason. Millions continue to create so many fantastic projects, and while a lot of this is pleasing to the eye, sometimes people make stuff that's also a treat for the ears.

Recently, Reddit user Mertuch has shown their building and orchestral prowess in Minecraft by constructing a rather complicated-looking music system. A video posted to the thread shows that, when activated, the redstone-based contraption plays a very familiar tune. To many fans of the GTA series, it will become apparent that the user has managed to recreate the theme tune to San Andreas, using a mixture of note blocks, bales of hay, and some pumpkins as well. While it's not the high quality of the original, it's a very accurate facsimile and an impressive creation overall.

Anyone who's ever played one of Rockstar's titles will know that Grand Theft Auto is renowned for its soundtrack, with radio stations a-plenty playing everything from heavy metal to hip hop to soul.

What's actually a nice touch to the video they've posted is that they can be seen standing on a platform near the huge contraption, batting away like a conductor leading an orchestra.
