How to Get Music Albums in ARC Raiders (Best Locations)

The Music Album is a blue rarity trinket in ARC Raiders that is usually found in areas with loot classified as Residential or Commercial. There are several buildings, plazas, and abandoned houses where you can find the trinket, but one of the best locations to get Music Albums is the houses near Abandoned Highway Camp on the Buried City map.

These buildings are well-known in the community for harboring some of the best loot on the map, but make sure to only head there if there are 29 to 27 left until the raid ends (so that it’s not looted already). While this area is also known for PvP, it’s recommended that you use the “Don’t Shoot” emote before entering to avoid risking any confrontation with a hostile raider.

Once you enter the first house next to the Raider Hatch, head to the second floor and jump through the open window to reach the house on the other side. This apartment will have file cabinets, wardrobes, weapon cases, and other lootable sources that you can search for the Music Album in ARC Raiders.

Once you’re done, exit the way you came and enter the building directly opposite the Raider Hatch. Keep heading up the stairs and watch out for Fireballs and Pops that may get attracted to your presence.

Directly at the top of the stairs, there’s a locked door that you can breach to enter a gold mine for trinkets. Search all the drawers, filing cabinets, suitcases, and backpacks in this room that have a high chance of spawning a Music Album trinket.

Once you finally have the Music Album blueprint, use the Raider Hatch to quickly escape back to Speranza (if you brought a Raider Hatch Key with you). Once you’re back, donate the Music Album to the Flickering Flames event project to get 1000x Merit Points in ARC Raiders.
