Use GuildLabs to deploy this template — channels, roles, and permissions set up correctly. Free and open source.
Hydra and Jockie Music are the top picks after Groovy and Rythm were shut down. They support YouTube, Spotify, SoundCloud and Apple Music playlists.
Use a dedicated voice channel and a music bot that supports queue management. Announce the listening party in #announcements at least 24 hours in advance. Watch2gether also works for music videos.
Create a dedicated #critique channel with clear rules: constructive feedback only, include what you like before what you'd change. Some servers require you to critique one track before sharing your own.
