Use /play to add music to the server’s shared queue. Enter a song or a supported Spotify, Tidal, Deezer, or Apple Music URL in search, or choose one of your saved Scrump playlists in playlist.

Play a song by name

Start typing a title, artist, album, or a combination of them. Choose an autocomplete result when you see the correct song, or submit the text and Scrump will use the best catalog match.
Adding the artist is the easiest way to avoid a cover, remix, or another song with the same title.

Play a saved Scrump playlist

Choose a saved playlist from the playlist autocomplete field:
Scrump queues the playlist in its saved order, subject to the active queue, per-user, duration, blocklist, and server playlist-size limits. A playlist belongs to your Discord account and can be used in any server where Scrump Music is available. Use only one of search or playlist for each /play request. Paste a supported HTTPS music link into /play. The same four resource types work across every supported service.
Normal tracking parameters and locale segments are accepted. Spotify and Deezer shortened sharing links are also expanded when they lead to a supported track, album, artist, or playlist.
Scrump uses the linked service to identify the title, artist, album, artwork, duration, and recording where available. It then matches that metadata through its playable catalog; it does not stream audio directly from Spotify, Tidal, Deezer, or Apple Music. A valid linked item can therefore still be unavailable to play.
Use a track, album, artist, or playlist URL from one of these hosts:
Scrump does not accept:
  • spotify:track:... and other Spotify app URIs
  • Links beginning with http://
  • Podcast, episode, video, station, or other non-music resource links
  • Lookalike domains, links with embedded credentials, custom ports, or URL fragments
Apple Music commonly represents a track as an album URL containing a song ID in ?i=...; Scrump recognizes that as the linked track. If any service changes a sharing URL format, search for the song by title and artist instead.

Queue limits for albums, artists, and playlists

Collection links can add multiple songs, but Scrump stops at the first applicable limit. This can include:
  • A maximum of 500 resolved songs from one album or playlist link
  • A maximum of 10 songs from one artist link
  • The remaining queue capacity
  • The server’s maximum imported playlist size
  • The maximum number of tracks one member may queue
  • The server’s minimum or maximum allowed track duration
  • A blocked song
If only part of a linked collection is added, check the queue and ask a DJ or member with Move Members to review the server’s music settings.

View the current song

Run /now-playing for the current title, artist, progress, requester, and playback state. Its compact controls let listeners refresh the status, pause or resume playback, and open lyrics or the audio filters panel as a new message without replacing the shared now-playing panel. Run /queue view when you also want to see upcoming songs. Its controls include the same public Lyrics and Filters buttons. If .fmbot bot scrobbling is available in the server, Scrump can scrobble the songs you hear to Last.fm. A server manager must add .fmbot, then you can connect your Last.fm account and run /botscrobbling with .fmbot to check or configure scrobbling. The now-playing message shows the number of eligible listeners being scrobbled when at least one listener is connected and not deafened.

Show lyrics

Use the Lyrics button on /now-playing or /queue view, or run /lyrics while a song is playing. Lyrics require server Plus or Pro, which unlocks them for everyone in the server, or your own Scrump Blue subscription. Scrump Blue is a personal subscription whose music benefits follow you into any active Scrump voice channel you join. Lyrics depend on a matching result being available. If Scrump cannot find lyrics for that exact recording, try another version of the song.

Join or leave voice

  • /join makes Scrump join your current voice channel without adding a song.
  • /leave makes Scrump leave voice and clears the active queue.
For playback changes after Scrump has joined, move into the same voice channel as Scrump first.
