7 Discord Music Bots to Play Music on Your Server

Discord has a lot of features and quirks, but out of all of its features, the one feature that makes it stand out more than any other VoIP service is the bots that Discord features in its servers.

There are many kinds of Discord bots, each used for different purposes. You can use bots to make your server fun and interactive. Today we are going to talk about Discord music bots.

What is a Music Bot?

You can use a Discord Music bot to play music from all kinds of music streaming services directly on to your server. To play music on any of the bots on this list, you have to:

  1. Join a Voice Channel.
  2. Type the bot Prefix Command followed by “play” and then the URL or the name of the song.

The bot will then try to look for the song on YouTube, Soundcloud, Spotify and, any other Music streaming service it supports. Some bots will let you choose the exact song you want to play if you search by name. This is because some songs have the same name.

Why Use a Music Bot?

You can use a music bot to listen to music with your friends while you chat in the text channels, or maybe even while you game together. The best thing about these music bots is that you don’t necessarily need to play music. You can play any YouTube video by using its URL. You can use this to play funny videos or random clips. Honestly, speaking from experience, this is quite fun!

Best Discord Music Bots

There are at least a few hundred Discord music bots out there, so picking one for your server is a bit tough. But don’t you worry! Today we have compiled a list of the top 7 Discord Music bots that you can pick from.

This list is in no particular order.

1. Rythm Bot – Highly Customizable & Easy to Use

The Rythm Bot for Discord is a personal favorite for many, including myself. Unlike some other bots on this list, this bot was Specifically created to tend to your music needs.

Rythm Bot

The Rythm bot allows you to change its prefix command, which is a feature you won’t see in many Discord bots. The Rythm bot is extremely customizable. Here are a few things you can do with this bot:

  • Blacklist channels so users can’t play music in specific channels.
  • Change Prefix Command to your liking. By default, the Prefix Command is ‘!‘.
  • Limit the maximum number of songs a user can queue at a time.
  • Change the Default Volume of the music.
  • Announce songs in text Channels, so you know what song is playing
  • Get the Lyrics of the currently playing song. This is one of the most useful features of the Rhythm bot.

Rythm offers many more features and provides high-quality music playback.

2. 24/7 ๐Ÿ”Š – Stream Radio Stations?

At a glance, 24/7 ๐Ÿ”Š appears like a normal Music bot, and for the most part, it is just a normal Music bot. It does everything you would expect it to do with decent quality. One feature that helps distinguish 24/7 ๐Ÿ”Š from other Music bots like it is you can stream radio stations directly through the bot. You can use a radio stream link to stream radio service directly from the bot. This is the only bot that offers this feature.

24-7 Bot

24/7 ๐Ÿ”Š has a lot of interesting features if you’re willing to pay for the premium subscription. Some of those features are:

  • Change the Volume of the bot.
  • Repeat playlist or Shuffle playlist.
  • Skip songs.
  • Make the commands Mod Only. This will make it so only Moderators can use the premium features.

There are a few other features in the premium subscription, but these stood out the most. Overall, 24/7 ๐Ÿ”Š’s is a solid Music bot and I would recommend you give it a go.

4. Groovy – Change the Bass and Pitch of the Audio!

Groovy is definitely one of the best Discord music bots out there. It provides amazing audio quality with a bunch of fun commands.

Groovy Bot

Even though the free version of this music bot doesn’t offer anything crazy. The premium version goes beyond its competitors offering features like:

  • Changing the Bass of the audio.
  • Changing the Pitch of the audio.
  • Changing the Speed of the audio.
  • Enabling Nightcore mode.
  • Enabling Vaporwave mode.
  • Enabling 24/7 mode.
  • Creating and saving playlists.

This is one of the only, if not the only Music bot that offers these features. You can get a premium server for $3.99 per month.

Setting aside the premium features, Groovy offers a bunch of commands for your every-day-music-listening-needs. With the Free version, you get all the simple commands like:

5. Vexera – Not Just a Music Bot!

Vexera is the type of bot that tries to make everyone happy! Not only does it play music for you but it also keeps everyone entertained, it sends memes on command, and tells you all kinds of funny jokes whenever you want!

But today we’re going to discuss the music aspect of this bot.

Vexera Bot

Vexera offers most of the things a music bot should have in its free version. From skipping songs to getting lyrics of a song. Vexera does it all. It even has the option to adjust the bass and volume of a song like the Groovy bot. Unfortunately, this feature is only available if you pay $3 per month for the premium subscription.

In my opinion that is definitely not a deal breaker. Even if you don’t invest in the premium subscription, if you get Vexera, you will have a bot that helps you keep all your friends entertained.

You can check out all of Vexera’s commands here.

The Prefix Command for Vexera is ‘+

6. Hydra – Interactive & Easy-to-Use!

This is another one of my personal favorites. In my usage, I experienced almost no stuttering and the sound quality was exceptional. One thing that stands out in this music bot is how easy-to-use it is.

If you use the command .setup the bot will automatically create a text channel for song requests. In this text channel, you and your friends will be able to request songs just by typing in the name of the song (no command prefix needed). Below the currently playing song, you’ll see 7 emojis/buttons. clicking each will act as a different command.

โฏ = Pause/Resume a song

โน = Stop and empty the queue

โญ = Skip a song

๐Ÿ”„ = Switch through the loop modes

๐Ÿ”€ = Shuffle the queue

โญ = Add the current song to your favorites

โŒ = Remove the current song from your favorites

The premium subscription for this bot will get you a few extra features, similar to that of the Groovy bot. Including:

  • 24/7 mode
  • Bass-boost
  • Demon filter
  • Nightcore filter
  • Change the Speed of the song
  • vaporwave filter
  • Increase the volume beyond a 100

7. MEE6 – Just your Average Music Bot

If you’ve used Discord for a certain amount of time, you must have come across the MEE6 bot. This bot is incredibly famous in the Discord community, and rightly so! This bot literally does it all! From Moderation to Music. if you get this bot, you won’t need another bot for moderation. Mee6 is an all in one package.

MEE6 Bot

Talking about music commands, the MEE6 doesn’t give you anything fancy, like Nightcore filters, or Bass-boost. However, what it does give you is a no-nonsense experience as a Music bot. Here are some of the boxes it checks as a Music bot:

  • Skipping to the next track and Going back to the previous track.
  • Replay the playing track from the start.
  • Vote to skip if multiple people are in the voice channel.
  • Increase the Volume (for Premium).

One thing I wish this bot had is the ability to loop a song or the queue. But considering MEE6 only recently added the music playing feature to their bot, we might see the loop feature in the future.

You can check out all of the commands here. (scroll to bottom)
