C418 (Daniel Rosenfeld. Born May 9, 1989 in Germany) is the artist behind the albums Life Changing Moments Seem Minor in Pictures, Circle & one. According to his website, Rosenfeld's dream is to work for a company that doesn't outsource music and sound. Rosenfeld cites his brother as a major "unnoticed" influence in his musical career. Rosenfeld's brother initially introduced him to Ableton, his first music production software, which he used to create "mash-ups of two songs." Rosenfeld continued to produce music as a "productive hobby," which eventually led to his involvement in the indie game community. Spending time in TIGSource's IRC channel, Rosenfeld started to learn the "infinitely complicated art of game design." Through the same channel, he met Markus "Notch" Persson, who was just beginning his work on the then indie sandbox game, "Minecraft." Rosenfeld's work for "Minecraft" - in which he was responsible for the music and sound effects in-game - greatly popularised his other work due to the attention Minecraft - Volume Alpha and Minecraft - Volume Beta received.
