About this Mod

Keep That Music - Updated

This is a NeoForge 1.21.1 port of Keep That Music, originally created for Fabric by DarkAndBlue.

What it does

Keep That Music prevents Minecraft from unnecessarily stopping or replacing the currently playing background music during events such as:

Dimension changes (for example Nether portals)
Player respawn
Reconnecting to a singleplayer world
Pausing the game
Returning to the title screen

Instead of abruptly cutting off the track, the music continues seamlessly.

This mod is fully client-side.

Port Information

This version ports the Fabric 1.20.1 release to NeoForge 1.21.1.
No gameplay changes were introduced beyond adapting the implementation to NeoForge and updated Minecraft internals.
