How to play a disc
Place the jukebox, then right-click it with a music disc to start the track. Right-click again with an empty hand to eject the disc. Put a comparator beside it and the signal tells you which disc is playing, so a track can drive redstone.

Dungeons, ancient cities, woodland mansions and other loot chests hold music discs.
Skeleton kills creeper
