Minecraft – Volume Alpha is the first soundtrack album by the German electronic musician Daniel Rosenfeld, known by his pseudonym C418. Created for the 2011 video game Minecraft, it is the first of two albums to come from the game's soundtrack. It primarily consists of simplistic ambient music, though some tracks are more upbeat. The simplistic nature of the album's music was caused by the technical limitations of Minecraft's sound engine, which made earlier concepts unfeasible. Volume Alpha was released digitally in March 2011 as Rosenfeld's first commercial release, with a physical release issued by record label Ghostly International in 2015.

Since release, Volume Alpha has been lauded by critics, who praised its usage in the game and its merits as a standalone ambient work. It has been considered to be a major part of Minecraft's popularity, and seven of its tracks are among the most streamed video game compositions on Spotify. Due to its association with Minecraft, some have considered it to be an influential album, as well as one of the best video game soundtracks ever made. A second Minecraft soundtrack album, Minecraft – Volume Beta, was released in 2013. A third soundtrack album has been completed, but remains unreleased.

Rosenfeld described Volume Alpha as his most important work, and the success of the album led him to pursue music creation full-time. In 2022, the album experienced a resurgence in popularity and appeared on multiple charts, and was nominated for the Top Dance/Electronic Albums category at the Billboard Music Awards of 2022. In August 2023, the album's success led to Rosenfeld reaching number one on the Billboard Emerging Artists charts. In December of that year, Volume Alpha was certified gold by the RIAA, after "Sweden" received its own Gold certification in August.
