I'm a friendly, non-dev, cisgender guy from NC who enjoys playing music/making noise, hiking, eating veggies, and hanging out with my best friend/wife + our 3 kitties + 1 greyhound.
Lena Raine, also known as Lena Chappelle or Kuraine, is an American-Canadian composer, producer, and video game developer. Raine is best known for her work on the soundtracks of Celeste, Minecraft and Guild Wars 2. She has composed music for various other video games, including Deltarune and Chicory: A Colorful Tale.
As video game playing generations grow up, I feel like the music in those games is finally getting the love and attention it deserves — makes me so happy! I think the limitations of old-school (8 bit, 16 bit... even 64 bit) video game music in particular make for some really cool, original sounds. And I know Minecraft isn't necessarily that old, but of course it's stylized to be older and the music definitely fits.
Side note, another game with similarly chill music to Minecraft, though less lofi, is Pikmin! Give this a listen.

I've always loved the music in Minecraft, but never knew who was behind it. I looked Lena up and she has done some seriously awesome work.
