"far" refers to both a song composed by C418, and a music disc that plays the song when inserted in a jukebox. The music disc is obtained from creepers killed by skeletons.
Because TNT ignited by a flaming arrow attributes all resulting kills to the entity that fired the arrow, a skeleton igniting a TNT block due to holding a bow enchanted with Flame, or shooting through lava or fire, also causes any creepers killed in the explosion to drop a disc.[1][2]
"far" is a calm, relaxing nature-like melody played on a watery echoing synth, accompanied by other synths playing chords. It also samples "Minecraft" from Volume Alpha.
Usage
Like all music discs, using the "far" music disc on a jukebox causes the jukebox to play the song.
If a redstone comparator is reading a jukebox playing "far", it will emit a redstone signal of 5.
Music disc "far" now uses the .ogg format. Before, "cat" and "13" were the only discs in the .ogg format; all the other discs were in the .mus format, which was decrypted by Minecraft on-the-fly.
With the introduction of jukebox song definition, music disc "far" now has an associated .json jukebox song definition under data/minecraft/jukebox_song
