14 Best Discord Music Bots in 2024

Discord is one of the best gaming chat services. One of my favorite features of Discord is the ability to use bots to assist me run my servers. They can also do other stuff that the platform does not natively support. Like the ability to play music over voice chat. If you’re new to music bots or looking for a new one, we’ve got you covered. So let’s look at the best music bots for Discord that still work in 2024.

Before we start, if you don’t know how to use bots and add them then check out our detailed guide on how to create a Discord server and how to add bots to Discord. With that said, let’s get to our list.

1. Jockie Music

Jockie Bot Discord

Jockie Music is undeniably one of the best music bots on Discord. It lets you play music from Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, Deezer, TIDAL, Soundcloud, and more. It even comes with a variety of audio effects, including bass boost, karaoke, 8D, tremolo, distortion, and echo that you can try out.

The best part is if you have multiple voice channels you can call up four instances of Jockie music for each one. Or add all four of them to the same channel. Some features like 24/7 active sessions and exclusive bots are only available when you support their Patreon project. It’s a good music bot if you own large servers.

ProsCons
Supports YouTube, Spotify, and other services.Requires you to be specific with song title.
Call up to four instances.24/7 playback exclusive to Patreon supporters.
Features various fun audio effects.
Easy to use commands

2. Uzox

Uzox Discord Music Bot

Uzox is a great option if you want to try out premium features for free. It lets you access YouTube, SoundCloud, Spotify, Twitch live streams and more. You also get 24/7 playback for free, without paying anything extra. If you want, you can also view the lyrics of the song you’re playing.

If you want, you can connect your Spotify account to let the bot access your pre-existing playlists. You can only get all these features for free with the Uzox bot.

ProsCons
24/7 playback even in an idle channel.Doesn’t let you create playlists.
View lyrics of the currently playing song.
Connect Spotify to access playlists.
On-screen button for playback control.

3. Fredboat

FredBoat Discord Music Bot

Freadboat’s highlight is the fact that it can play high-quality music. It supports YouTube, Soundcloud, Bandcamp, direct links, Twitch, and more. Playlist creation is also available here so you can play songs continuously without any pause in between. It’s a secure open-source bot, but it felt a little too simple for my taste. It also has some delays when responding to certain commands.

ProsCons
Supports multiple languages.Delay in response at times
Let’s you create playlists. Features like 24/7 playback locked behind premium
Built-in search feature 
Easy to use for new users

4. Kenku FM

KenkuFM Discord Music Bot

Kenku FM isn’t a bot but a separate app itself. Unlike other bots, it doesn’t support any streaming services because it’s more of an audio-sharing platform. However, you can use its browser-like interface to search for the song and play it from there. It also includes Steam Deck support.

But unlike other bots, adding Kenku FM to your server requires you to have a Discord Developer Profile. This is a bit complicated and tedious process compared to other bots in this list which can be a turn down for a lot of users.

ProsCons
Allows playback of local files.Adding it to server is a complicated process.
Create playlists for continuous playback. Doesn’t support any streaming services.
In-app browser to search and play songs. 
Supports Elgato Steam Deck. 

5. Matchbox

Matchbox Discord Music Bot

I personally happen to use Matchbox in my server so take my word for it when I say that it is a pretty good choice. It supports streaming platforms like YouTube, Spotify, Deezer, SoundCloud, and more. Other features include playlist creation, audio filters, and 24/7 support.

There are buttons to control playback like Uzox. However, features like unlimited YouTube and Spotify links, 24/7 playback, and unlimited queue length are exclusive to premium membership. Though it might not be the best, it is one of the easiest music bots to use and manage on Discord.

ProsCons
Supports YouTube, Spotify, Deezer, SoundCloud, and more.No support for Apple Music.
Includes several audio filters. Most features exclusive to premium.
User friendly bot. 
Shows buttons to manage playback. 

6. Rhythm

Rhythm Discord Music Bot

Rhythm is unique as you can bring it up as an activity and use its Spotify-like interface to browse through songs. It doesn’t support any music streaming service, instead compensates artists per stream. It can queue, loop, and shuffle songs for you. Plus the selection of songs is also pretty good.

But you will have to pay the premium to select which song you want to play. Else you can only use their radio for free with no control over song playback. If you like their interface and don’t mind paying then it can be a good option for you.

ProsCons
Modern Spotify-esque interface.Requires premium to enjoy basic features.
Lets you shuffle, loop and queue songs. Can only play their preselected radio in free version.
Compensates artists for every stream.
Good selection of songs. 

7. Zandercraft

Zandercraft Discord Music Bot

Zandercraft is commonly known for its productivity, GIFs and fun features, but I have used it for months as a music bot. The reason for this is that it can play XHD (extra HD) and Hi-Fi music, making it perfect for music junkies like me. It offers features like searching for songs, adding them to the queue, creating playlists, and more.

Despite not mainly being a music bot, it offers on screen controls to manage playback. So if you love to Hi-Fi music, and you’re looking for Discord music bot to handle that, definitely check out Zandercraft.

ProsCons
Plays XHD (Extra HD) and Hi-Fi musicDoesn’t work with multiple voice channels.
On screen buttons to control playback.
Multipurpose bots with useful features. 
Includes auto moderation tools. 

8. BMO

BMO Discord Music Bot

Named after a character from Adventure Time, BMO is a multi utility bot just like Zandercraft. It supports games, utilities, image alterations, but for our purpose we’ll focus on the music part. BMO can play music in high quality, and queue them as well. It works quite well, however, on one hand it’s pretty basic and on the other using it can be a headache.

I tried for an hour to bring up the bot in the voice channel, and after much research found out it uses custom “./” commands. You won’t see a list of commands pop-up, instead have to type them out to use BMO. This can make it annoying for users who are looking for a hassle free bot.

ProsCons
Multi utility Discord bot. Custom commands that you’ll need a guide to learn.
Plays music in high quality audio. Doesn’t offer much for the amount of effort it requires.
Let’s you search and queue songs. 
Quite basic in features. 

9. FlaviBot

Flavibot Discord Music Bot

No list of the best Discord music bots is complete without FlaviBot. It’s simple yet feature-rich bot that’ll be a great addition to your server. It supports streaming services like Spotify, Soundcloud, Deezer, Apple Music and more. Yes, there’s no YouTube support but at least this saves it from being taken down by Google like Vexera.

It gives you music playback controls, create and play from your playlists, multiple language support, a web player, and many more. There is a premium tier available that you can subscribe to for more features like a 24/7 mode, unlimited tracks in the queue, default volume, and amazing filters.

ProsCons
Can play from popular music streaming services. Some features locked behind premium tier.
Supports multiple languages. No support for YouTube playback.
Includes a web player for quicker searches. 
Commands are easy to get used to. 

10. Aiode

Aiode Discord Music Bots

Aiode is a good pick if you want a bot that is full of customizations and lets you play your complete library of Spotify songs. It allows you to link your Spotify account so you can stream your playlist instead of creating one. Fancy a podcast? It can play that too. Plus it supports services like SoundCloud and YouTube. Though you might run into issues when playing videos.

Its customizations is something that veteran Discord users are most definitely going to love. However, given its large variety of options, newer users will have trouble using it without a guide. Oh! By the way it is completely free.

ProsCons
Play your saved songs and playlists from Spotify. Long list of options can be confusing for new users.
Completely customizable bot. Has trouble playing YouTube videos.
Can even change the bot name and commands. 
Free to use bot. 

11. SoundCloud

SoundCloud Discord Music Bot

Yep, SundCloud has their official bot in Discord that you can add from App directory. This is a pretty straightforward app that lets you sign in to your SoundCloud account and play your music over the voice channel. Even if you are not signed in, you can look up independent artists or search by genres.

The bot is pretty simple to use, though it doesn’t have those buttons to control playback, it is still pretty effective in its approach. Plus, its free to use so you don’t have to worry about certain features being locked behind a paywall. If you are a regular SoundCloud listener then its an obvious choice.

ProsCons
Simple and easy commands. Pretty basic bot, doesn’t offer any extra features.
Search music by genres and artists.
Save currently playing music to your SoundCloud library. 
Link account to listen to your playlists. 

12. Chip

Chip Discord Sound Bot

Chip is yet another music bot worth trying out. It supports services like Spotify, SoundCloud, and Bandcamp. It has convenient buttons to pause, resume, skip, stop, or check the queue. This way, you don’t have to always rely on commands to navigate the bot. The list of commands isn’t too extensive either which can be overwhelming for new users. You can just paste the link and start listening in a few seconds.

ProsCons
Supports Spotify, SoundCloud and Bandcamp. Streaming quality is just average.
Buttons to quickly pause, resume, skip, stop music.
Basic list of commands.

13. ChillBot

ChillBot Discord Music Bot

Want to play a relaxing Lo-Fi music in the voice server while you chill out with the gang? Then ChillBot is probably the bot you’re looking for. It streams chilled out songs 24×7. The commands are also pretty intuitive and you can play/pause music whenever you want. Though if you want to play your own favorite Lo-Fi tracks here then that won’t be possible.

ProsCons
Plays relaxing Lo-Fi music continuously.23/7 playback exclusive to premium version.
Controls are basic and easy to manage. Cannot play your selected Lo-Fi songs.
Plays tracks randomly like a radio station. 

14. Lunabot

Luna Discord Music Bot

Lunabot is yet another alternative that we feel you’d enjoy in case others don’t work out for you. It has all the essentials like pause/play, a queue system, volume options, autoplay, and more. Lunabot comes with nightcore toggles, the option to keep it in a voice channel 24×7, and more.

If you are playing a playlist then you can quickly jump between titles with ease. The paid version of the bot gives better bitrate options, so if you want a dedicated music bot for Discord, this is the best option.

ProsCons
On screen playback controls. Delay when pressing the playback button and the bot responding to it.
Higher bitrate option for songs.
Works well without any hassle. 
Drop down menu to jump between songs in a playlist. 

These are the 14 best Discord music bots that you can use on your Discord servers.
